I am excited to find out how the "blogs" works.

Thanks for everything

Hello Thomas,

I just wanted to let you know I had a great time at Networking event. There were a lot of great people there. I should have won the award for the person who traveled the furthest to be there...:-)..all the way from VA.
With my company just expanding into the Chicago area it was a must that I attend...thanks again

Moneik McDonald

Sounds good Thomas,

Sorry for the late response. Things are busy at the office. We have two expos we are going to in chicago this month.

Thanks for the invite - I am interested in attending your event on June 19th. Will know in a week or so if scheduling allows...

Hi, Tom. Yes, the band is still going strong, and it's totally keeping me from getting older (in fact, it might be having an opposite effect, which I'll have to monitor closely).

Unfortunately, I'll be in Spain (vacation) during the Goose Island event, but it should be interesting and "well attended," and I wish you success with it.

Take care.

Harvey

Thomas, I'm planning to go to the Goose Island thing. Looks big.

Thanks, Tom - I live in Dallas, however, so I don't think I'll make it, sadly. Thanks for the invite.

GOCUBSGO!

Tom:

Hope to see you in Chicago!

Cheers,

Pete

Sounds great - I'll send you an email

Tom - sent you an email through LI to see if you had some time to get together since I'll be in Chicago M-W. Look forward to catching up......

Tom - hope all is well.....sent you a LinkedIn invitation. Would love to catch up with you about a couple of things when you get a moment. Take care.

Rob

Thomas, it was a pleasure seeing you again at the Illinois Recruiters Association meeting. I'm happy to write a review of Wednesday's seminar. Would you like it done under personal recommendations for you and Ruth on LinkedIn? Or is there another venue you'd prefer.
Thanks,
Marianne
