I hope at least one of you had a Guiness in my (admittedly non-existent) honour.

What we lacked in quantity, we made up for in quality. Though I do apologize again for dragging you all out of a perfectly good bar to not see my friend's band. Guess we should've gotten the check sooner.

Well, at least we know a few bars not to go to next time. ;)

MsVader, let us all know when he's playing again, and we'll do another meetup (but i'll take path instead of the ferry).

I LIVE IN HOBOKEN AND NO-ONE INVITED ME!

I'm so invisible.

that's what you get for putting times sq. into the near-o-matic™, hehe.

I still want to go bowling (hey you know it's cool!), but you all saw what my substandard planning abilities get you...more than happy to pass on the torch of mediocrity if someone else wants to give it a shot.

also, bluedaniel is planning some sort of extravaganza in new hope for december.

i'm up for bowling : >

and I got an email from my hosting (free earthlink thing)--i'm using too much traffic, so on sunday i'm removing that page--copy the pics if you want any...

If you need some space, amberglow, e-mail me, coz I have some spare.

Ooh! Maybe I can make that one.

New Hope rocks.

yar, I put my pics up on my machine at home so's not to suck up too much prcs bndwdth from our actual hosting server (you pigs! just kidding...). at first I thought that was probably overkill, but judging by the access logs apparently not, hehe.

we are in boston for the week, so I will leave the pics up until monday or so -- my traffic shaper makes the mefi web requests play reasonably nicely with my bittorrent sessions, but it has still been degrading voip performance a little too much.

ok, I have four wayward apple pies in the oven to take care of, so be good everyone and have a nice holiday.
