Pictures from last night's Philly meet up are here. Be warned, there are cloth napkin boobs in one of the pictures...yeah, I said it. Cloth napkin boobs.

NSFW: napkin safe for work

Some highlights:

Juxtaposition of dmd's napkin boobs with 31d1's remarkably delicate napkin rose.

It should also be noted, in conjunction with napkin boobs, that 31d1 won the night's golf tourney (under par, no less), and dmd lost sorely, at frog over par. Guess which one I'm marrying in ten days?

desuetude made the Liberty Bell ring coming and going.

Plaque at PMA replica that said "Home to Rocky's famous run.... and also masterpieces!"

Blue water. Yes, putty golf fans, there was sour-raspberry-blue water.

what else, Philly mefites?

who can forget the "no, really, Philadelphians are slender and goodlooking [and have stunning pantylines]" photo shoot going on behind us?

I don't know. I made most of it up. I gave negative points for style.

Great, another "Wait, Foo is a woman?!" moment. If we keep on having these meet up photo shoots I might have to question the validity of this being a boyzone.

hmmm. 31d1 running up the 'museum' steps was pretty funny.

Yes, this web site needs more physically blurry folks.

Don't be confused by the napkin boobs...dmd is indeed male. But yeah, we busted that boyzone myth last time.

Where is this mini golf course? I would like to play miniature golf when I visit Philadelphia.

Mayor Curley - it's in Franklin Square, at 6th and Race. Fairly new, really. There's a carousel there too!

And surly attendants who grouse about working! (In the end, I think he found my defensive posture and the theat of sneering to be charming.)

Looks like dmd has a special meetup t-shirt...Stegasaurus!

Yeah, I hate working! And attending!

Hey Mr. Stegasaurus, has EVERYONE commented on your uniform now?
posted by desuetude at 10:19 AM on September 19, 2006

I've so far been silent on the matter.

I didn't know it was so DONE to comment on his shirt, since I... wasn't there.

Oh, the mockery isn't DONE, rather it's ongoing.

I wish I could have made it! A bum ankle, plus a 7-year-old who sobbed at the notion of my playing mini-golf there without her, made it a night for staying in.

Sigh, I'm sorry I couldn't have made it. In NYC.

Hey, now, I was just trying to be all helpfully recognizable. I actually own two outfits.

Did miagaille make your other t-shirt, too?
posted by desuetude at 4:34 PM on September 19, 2006

Damn, it looks like I missed a good time. I'll make it out for the next gathering, though.

What did they do with all the homeless folks who used to hang out at Franklin Square?
posted by fixedgear at 5:03 PM on September 19, 2006

The whole park isn't fixed up -- plenty of room to sleep on the un-renovated bits.
