[UbuntuDallas] Roll Call

[Russ Sharek]

I'm over in Richardson.

I've worked with a number of DFW-wide organizations and social groups in 
the past, we always seemed to gravitate to this area when we got 
together. It was definitely a bonus when I moved here, as half of my 
social life seemed to be taking place in the area anyway.

Beyond its convenience for me, I'll recommend Richardson for its support 
for independent businesses. For whatever reason, the area is chock-full 
of mom-and-pop restaurants, shops and hookah lounges. There are plenty 
of good places for a group of freedom-lovers to meet, eat and socialize.


Just a thought,
Russ.
