Happy New Year Everyone!

I hope you guys had a wonderful holiday break with lots of rest, fun surprises and ready to perhaps start the New Year with a bang! I just paid the meet up fees for the next 6 months, which means we should take advantage of the site and meet at least once a month.

I'd like to this time have a meet up somewhere in Jersey - preferably in Jersey City or Hoboken. Somewhere very close to public transportation. I'd like everyone who attends to be able to get there easily. I have been to the Hyatt in Jersey City for drinks. I took the path train there and had no problems getting there.

For those who are familiar with it, please comment on meeting at the Hyatt. Please note, the reply will go to the entire mailing list.

Also, if anyone has any suggestions for the theme for the next meet up, please feel free to reply to email. (keeping in mind, nothing religious or political is welcomed LOL).

Those who are interested in bringing in intellectual papers on the situation in Pakistan are welcome to stay and discuss after the Urdu meet up has concluded. Just keep in mind, we might want to go back to this venue at another time and don't want to be banned LOL, LOL...

I look forward to meeting some new members and perhaps catching up with some veterans. Please email a theme and venue that is easily accessible.
