Dunkirk Systems 3rd Birthday Coffee Meetup
Tomorrow, Thursday, November 8 is the “official” 3rd birthday of my Internet consulting business Dunkirk Systems. Where I was already in business before this date, it marks the day I emerged from the bowels of the Cook County Office Building with my certificate stating my sole proprietorship is called Dunkirk Systems. Yes, it was a surreal moment where I felt like Jake and Elwood Blues!
I am inviting my friends, clients and readers of by blog The Hot Iron to join me in celebrating this. If you are in Chicago, please join me:
Date – TOMORROW, Thursday, November 8, 2007
Place – Gallery 37 Cafe, 66 East Randolph, Chicago
Time – 8 am to 9:30 am CT (note the cafe opens at 8 am)
And the coffee is on me! They offer other tasty treats if you wish to purchase them yourself, but I will be springing for the coffee, tea or whatever other beverage you prefer to start your day.
Please no cards or gifts. But if you insist, make a donation to the American Liver Foundation – Illinois Chapter.
See you then!
I won’t be able to make it tomorrow but I just wanted to say congrats!!!

Thanks Pete! The color of my logo and the Patriots is not a coincidence.

A donation to the American Liver Foundation? I’m sure it was one hell of a party!

Hi Daniel - It was 9am, so the strongest thing served was coffee. The American Liver Foundation is an organization I am proud to support and promote.
Not sure how much they got if anything, but look for more on the way for them!
