Some photos from tonight's earlier meetup in NYC.
Speaking of putting names to faces, could you? Of that handsome bunch I think I recognize only one smilin' face.

amberglow, vidiot, Karmakaze, anildash .
More people had cameras, so there'll be more pics. It was a thrill meeting mathowie, although he did take a pass on the gullet-destroying confections we enjoyed later on.

Not after three beers in a short period of time. I forgot to bring my flash, so had to do the low-light thing, and then I only brought it out a couple times to take a few shots amind all the conversation. If I had my wits and sobriety, I would have gotten some good ones.

from mathowie's pics at the top of the thread:
#1: from right: Vidiot, chicobangs, "Mary" and I think amberglow
#2: in focus is Vidiot. To the right you can barely see mdn (that's funny, I thought there was someone sitting between them). To his left, chicobangs, muckster (I think), "Mary"
#3: same angle, less focus
#4: Part of me is in focus (because I'm so mysterious), and covering up the other part is a blurry rendering of mdn.
#5: from left: the edge of lurker "David," karmakaze, and (I think) adampsyche
#5: I'm not sure who that guy at the end is. Isn't that another table?
attackthetaxi's photos, numbering the photos in the order they display themselves in the slideshow (also left to right and then down by row)
#1 from left: chicobangs, Vidiot, and a glimpse of yours truly
#2 that's me trying to get something out of my eye, mdn to my left, mathowie in the distance, possibly NicWolff back there on the right, and karmakazi in focus on right
#3 from left, me, mdn, planetjr (sp?), a glimpse of mathowie, a glimpse of (I think) NicWolff next to him. That's jonmc scribbling his life story so he can read it aloud, "David" standing up, karmakaze's head, and (probably) adampsyche's head
#6 I think that's amberglow with the cigarette. He gave me one.
#7 I attract a crowd of onlookers.
#8 Can't remember the name of the girl with the french fry, can't tell who's next, followed by "David" and Vidiot
#9 Vidiot, Mary, and amberglow?

Does somebody shout out an interesting topic and then link to it? Does one side of the table flame the other side? Has a mefi meetup ever been crashed by Monkeyfilterites?

No judgements, bingo, but that light's a little high for a halo. It's kind of at police-interrogation height, actually.
Where were you on Saturday night around 7:30? Are there witnesses? You sure of that story, bub?
Ahem.
... And, croaking, sugar-crashed, stuffed to the back teeth with libations and confections, they toddled off gently into the Manhattan night....

I think they just hire some out-of-work off-off-broadway actors from time to time to generate the appropriate photos, and thereby hide the spoon.

Yeah, well, as pasty and/or white as all of us (except those of us who weren't pasty and/or white) were, we all drank heartily and repeatedly toasted our favoritest people in the world: ourselves.
And maitre d' aside, the service in h*ll is better than you'd think. Lots of cool refreshing libations to quell the acrid sulfur and rotting flesh smell. It was rather classy, for an evening in Gomorrah.

That's a Tom Waits moment if ever there was one. But since he's (presumably) not around to write that song, I reserve the right to. I mean, I'm not just paying my Noo Yawk Irish dive-bar doppelganger to stand around and look pretty.

I like navel and blurb! The first since it goes well with the phrase "collective navel" and the second for its euphony.

Why would we hate you, i_c? You won't be in New York for another three weeks.
Hating you is not only impossible from this distance, it's simply inconvenient.

I might be willing to hate you, given the opportunity.
Well, that's just ducky! I ask you to hate me and you can't be bothered, but some foreigner asks, and you serve up hot heapin' helpin's of hatred.
Hmph.

I have nothing against i_cola. But, jonmc: You asked me to hate you? I mean, hate is an awfully strong word, but still, that doesn't seem like something I would have missed.

Bingo looks almost exactly what I thought he would look like - it's pretty striking. Jonmc, meanwhile, looks like my onetime alcoholic next-door neighbor, who was impossibly chatty and entertaining, except when for asking me the same questions day after day, or at least every other day or two days, like your 85-year-old grandmother.
