Have fun…gooti and I are going to have to pass. We hope to catch you all next time one of these things rolls around.
I would love to join you. What can I bring? And how can I get directions?
You know it’s a party when we drag the lurkers out.
Barring a sudden run on Amazon, I have 4 good-sized boxes full of books/cds/DVDs and probably a little more that I’ll be dragging along.
Looks like we’ve got dessert covered, so perhaps a veggie or other side dish? Or whatever you like. And I shall email the directions forthwith.
Five p.m.?
Yes indeed.
Oh, and it’s not too late for any last-minute additions! Email me and I’ll send you directions.
Hey, everybody have fun tonight! Everybody Wang Chung tonight!
I’m so happy that my little sis and bro-in-law have moved someplace where they can get a decent Dopefest together; Those years in MIA must have been really frustrating.
I wish I could be there, but you’re just a little out of my way and coincidentally the “Edward the Head Bon Voyage Barbecue” Dopefest will be going on at exactly the same time just a few blocks away from my house. So we’ll toast the ATL Dopers who are fortunate to have acquired one of our most celebrated ex-pat MADs (if I do say so myself) and her lucky husband.
Thanks to all who came, we had a great time getting to know some of you for the first time, and getting to know a few more a little better! Some of my photos turned out utterly horrible, but we will post the decent ones.
Thank you again for having us over! I made it home ok!
I had myself a large time.
Thanks for allowing us to invade/clear that crap outta our apartment. We had fun!
Just got home and wanted to post and thank the GeoBills for hosting that little shindig last night. I too had a wonderful time and it was great seeing old friends and meeting new ones. Best wishes and much success to GMRYujin and his Morelin on their new venture in North Carolina. I helped myself to a couple of items from your boxes, yuje, and I will think about you whenever I watch/read them.
Torie, glad you made it home okay, and thanks for coming all the way from South Carolina to see us. I loved your “movie reviews”. (“The hobbit that cried all the way through LOTR”, and your telling of cracking up during a certain scene in the first movie still make me chuckle!)
Enjoyed seeing my friend Archergal and her husband Robert as well. (Let’s see, did I score, like three hugs from you last night, Janice? )
Fiver, dude! Take care of that arm, thanks for the beer and I just love that “deadpan” expression! I hope to see you again sometime.
Anaxagoras and Jackaroe: What a pleasure it was meeting you two! A quote I will remember from last night: “Preaching atheism”! Jackaroe, I didn’t get a chance to try one of your “micro-beers”, but I’d like to the next Dopefest we meet at!
Let’s see, did I leave anyone out? Oh yeah! Scooter the kibble-eatin’ cat! My Susie (Himalayan-Persian) musta smelled you on my shirt that I had on last night, ‘cause she sure was lovin’ this morning!
After I left last night, I stopped for a nightcap at C’est Bon, a Cajun restaurant near my motel, and got invited to “sit in” on the drums for a couple of numbers, so it was the perfect ending to a wonderful evening for me.
Thanks once again for having me over and I hope to see y’all again sometime soon!

Ok, I’ve got a quick and dirty page of pictures up from last night.
…Let me clarify that. There are no dirty pictures on the page.
Thanks for having us over! I enjoyed the evening very much. It was great to meet Anaxagoras, Fiver (sorry about the sideways flush comment, Fiver), Torie, and JackaRoe. I sure hate that GMRyujin and Morelin are leaving the area, but I’m glad they’ll still be online and around somewhere. That way, when they’re rich and famous, I can say “I knew them when…”
Archergal, not in the pictures cuz I was behind the camera.
From South Carolina!
Damn, that Quasi sumbitch ain’t much to look at, but he sure has some purty laigs!
Somebody cue up Duelling Banjos, please!
Thanks, Archergal for those pics!
Fiver with those glasses and that dead-pan expression, I thought of Donald Pleasance right away!
Q
Thanks for the pictures, by the way!
Thanks for hosting the Dope Fest Uncle Bill and GeoBabe. I really enjoyed meeting real dopers. The conversation was very interesting, esp the “underpants” thread.
The pics look great Archergal, except I dd not see one of Scooter going for the carrots in there.
I woke up this morning feeling hung over despite having had nothing to drink. It was delightful having you all, and I’m glad we had such a good turnout! Great meeting you or seeing again, as the case may be.
Our pictures are here–if you’re not an ImageStation member, sign in using the name geoguests and password cecil1. Somehow Bill managed to get almost everyone looking bored, pissed off or both. I hope everyone had a good time in spite of appearances. I started to put captions on the pics, but somehow managed to lose them all halfway through and haven’t the energy to do them over, so nyah.
