Here we are, at \*\*Gundy’s \*\* house, being geekier than I ever thought humanly possible. Posting while actually **at** the party? How sad is that? Seriously, so far everyone is more or less behaving themselves. At least, that’s what we’d like you to think. ---

Anyone going to dinner at Reza’s and leaving from the hotel? Because I’m not doing any of the day stuff today so I’ll be leaving from here, and I don’t wanna go alone… /whine I’m on the cell phone list or call room #608. ---

Well, another ChiDope is mostly done and I’m still alive. Is everybody else? Nice quote of the evening, “This is the GREATEST PARTY EVER!” Perhaps Hugh Hefner or Caligula would disagree but it was very nice indeed. Thanks sent out to the mass of organizers without whom I’d’ve spent another Saturday night watching the Three Stooges and massaging my wife’s feet. ---

> [@dropzone](#): > > Well, another ChiDope is mostly done and I’m still alive. Is everybody else? So far so good. It was nice seeing/meeting y’all. If I could just remind y’all on some etiquette: when distributing your photos of last night to that candidate for senator/Streets and Sanitation commissioner/archbishop, please use an opaque manila envelope. It’s only common courtesy. ---

Okay, [I got first pics here.](http://f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/yojimboguy/album?.dir=/fbdf&.src=ph&store=&prodid=&.done=http%3a//f1.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/yojimboguy/my_photos) I hope this works, as some others have had problems viewing my Yahoo photo albums before. I might have to bite the bullet and pay for a web page if there are viewing problems, as these are really good pics. There are a couple I feel the need to get permission to post, so this is maybe not yet complete. ---

Okay, in my rush to publish, I omitted a few items. I posted names that I knew, but anyone who can help me do more IDs would be profusely thanked. I will correct the captions if you will correct me. First, apologies to the many Dopers I couln’t come up with a name for, including many of you that I spoke with. I know a few of your real names, but I don’t know if you’re willing to share them so I won’t print them. Also, BEST PARTY EVER!! Let’s just say I had some life fantasies fulfilled, and I wasn’t even paying tens of thousands of dollars in Thailand to have it done. 😃 To (badly) paraphrase Shakespeare: > [@](#): > > Each day pf St. Crispin’s you will harken back to yore, proclaiming “I was at ChiDope in 2004.” Envious unto death that they cannot say the same, your peers cannot help but feel somewhat lame. ---

Actually, the album wasn’t properly marked to be shared with the public, but it should be now. ---
