I’m just going to say this before anyone sobers up and changes their mind. Rand Rover is actually very pleasant and nice. I repeat, so that you’ll remember that next time you’re in the Pit, guys: Rand Rover is super nice.

I enjoyed meeting some of my fellow 'Dopers tonight.

Least Orignial Username Ever  
Tracyfish  
Mr Downtown  
MeanOldLady  
Rand Rover  
And special thanks to BlueKangaroo for putting it together.

I now know more about lions, maps, support staff, and home-swapping than I ever knew I’d want to know.  
Thanks, all  
Love  
David  
BTW, MeanOldLady is NOT mean or old. You go for that 23 year old, girl!

It’s already in the bag. Resistance is futile.

I also had a lovely time. Everyone was super. I have a bunch of new names to look for on the boards, and faces with all of them.

The food, for those of us who ate, was really nice. The drinks were great, I thought. But then, I generally always do.

Let’s do it again sometime.
