Thirt times a charm

I'm so tired after the trip home that I tried to post this twice and I guess if you forget to give it a name it doesn't post.... so here goes #3


I just got back from Fest08 and all I can say is WOW! What a great time and what great people I met.

For those of you who have never been.....all those strange people you know from the internet are actual people..and they are not nuts. Well maybe a little nuts....but in a good way!

I will not try to thank those responsible for fear of leaving someone out. I will say I was delighted with the person Bob Carver turned out to be. So down to earth & generous with both time & gifts. It was a pleasure & privelge to meet & spend time with him.


Tired now I will go.....but I'll be back!

Re: Thirt times a charm

It was great to put faces with the neames for me too.

Big erik, thank you for coming to my defense while I slept.

Now Obi wan you truly illustrate the phrase "Nit picker".

For those of you who don't know the meaning of "nit picker" it is a person who will attempt to pick the fly shit out of pepper.

I missed you OBI, everyone at the fest was nice!

Frankie,

What can say......you're a class act. I was honored to meet you and thoughly enjoyed hanging out listening to the tunes and BS'ing.

Political Correctness...defined

A doctrine fostered by a delusional, illogical minority and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.


In a recent press conference, President Obama remarked, "If I had a city, it would look just like Detroit."
