… Anyone who has an interest or would like to just sit, listen, and maybe sway to some great jazz tunes, can join us as well. We will endeavor to offer our members live jazz events without a cover. However, in cases when we can’t, we will try to broker with clubs and venues special reduced admission fees for our members. In order to become a member of our "Jazz in the City" Meetup group, we ask you to pay nominal membership dues of $10 per year.  Any way you look at it, it’s a great deal – w …

Have you seen "I Love You, Man"? Kinda like that. Your founder realized that at 40, he had pretty much given up on having guy friends and found himself sitting with "the girls" way too often. Not a gay group - just dudes looking to get out a bit more, and do more than drink & watch sports. Married or not, kids or not - you just need some male bonding. Also - gay dudes welcome - it's just not a dating group. I've always wanted a poker group, but don't play poker. A drum circle without the hippies …

… Did you know that while your following your breath your mind is going to just spew out thoughts. Thoughts that are untrue and if you believe them they can be negative and scary in nature. If you don't feed into the thoughts but just watch them they will go away just like they came. That's ok. That's what thoughts are automatic. It's what the human mind does. Pop 'em out. Watch them and they will dissolve just like they came. If you practice meditating in time the ability to watch thoughts …

… It's an invite only group just so I can prevent the creepers from showing up. Everyone in their 20s is welcome.   I'll start off hosting events every other week in the city. We'll see how that goes and adjust the meetup frequency from there.   Cheers!

… (No sitting on the fence until the last minute please) This is to help with booking restaurants / second round venues etc. RSVPS are COMPULSORY for all meet ups. Yes I said it. If you get invited to someone's house dinner party - you don't not give them an answer and turn up for dinner. It is the same thing here. Every meet up I organize is a personal invitation to each and every one of you - so I request an RSVP. Anybody who RSVPs yes but does not turn up more than 2-3 times, anybody who is …

… You're sitting at home and the longer you're there alone, the more tempted you are to try and contact your ex. You feel totally lost in social situations now as a single person because you're so used to having your ex to balance or ground you. You realize you don't know anymore what you like and don't like. And there are so many new things you haven't done and places you haven't tried. You want to explore but don't want to go alone. If any of this sounds familiar, this group is for you! Men and …

… LOL, let's just say that was a lunch to forget.  Water - typically a minimum of 60 ounces, but I always bring much more (100+ ounces per hike).  3) Backpack for the above items.  I personally highly recommend a good day pack ($50-$100) that has a waist belt and cross-chest strap.    Optional that you may find useful: 4) Trekking poles.  Can be a real knee saver on downhills, and make ascents much faster/easier (up to 25% easier). 5) First aid kit.  I only list this as optional as I always carry …

I find it extremely difficult to find group of people that has the same passion for the written word as I do. If you do not want to drive half an hour, over three bridges, and sit in traffic for who knows how long, this may be the group for you. The patrons of this group should be open-minded to all forms of writing, yes even sci-fi, as well as, being open to honest but respectful feedback from the group. Publishers and editors are welcome, or if your just new in town and want to hear local writ …

… You'll hand over the piece of writing that you brought to share, just like everybody else did, and a skilled orator will begin to read a story from the top of the recently collected stack. You'll listen. When the story is over each person present will take a turn to say something like, "I liked that line about purple pansies tearing off their yellow masks..." or "I was a little confused by the third paragraph, I couldn't understand whether it was your mother or the monkey who poisoned the lasagn …
