I attended my first Dopefest last night here in Colorado. Although it was only Mr Cynical, Fugazi, and me, we had a great time! Is it possible to still be drunk at 8:30 AM? I even took some pictures!! [Take a look](http://albums.photopoint.com/j/AlbumIndex?u=1271345&a=9494258) ---

Hey, that’s not so original…okay my camara didn’t flash at the Denver-Bronco Mini-Dopefest…but there’s a chicken wing in his nose! [http://albums.photopoint.com/j/ViewPhoto?u=1271345&a=9494258&p=31179756](http://albums.photopoint.com/j/ViewPhoto?u=1271345&a=9494258&p=31179756) Damn, I am pissed – fucking traffic I wanted to be there. In case Mr. Cynical and monster didn’t see it: I said in the other thread: > [@](#): > > Sorry monster and Mr. Cynical (I know you can’t see this at the moment as you are probably enjoying a cold brew) but after today’s commute home there is no way in hell I am making that drive. > > There was an accident at Interquest Parkway (just north of the Springs) that shut down the north bound lanes. Traffic was literally backed up 10 miles according to the news…what normally would take me 20 minutes to get home took me an hour and that was going the back roads once I actually got off the highway, I think everyone else had the same idea. Sufficed to say I am no mood to drive north. > > According to the news the back-ups continue as of this writing. > > If I do this on a Friday, I think I should make an afternoon of it. Go up and walk around Park Meadows, have lunch with one of my old MCSE instructors, etc. > > Sorry guys, hope you are having a good time. \< sniff, sniff, looks like you had a good time \> ---

Looks like Mr C and Fugazi couldn’t make it to the boards today. I must’ve worn them out. 😃 ---

The hangover wore off at about 4 this evening 😃 I still haven’t gained full control over my motor functions, but those, too, shall return in time. And yes, at least a half gallon of gatorade so far, and I still feel parched! ---

Oops, took awhile before I found this thread. I wasn’t hung over but I had to work Saturday night. Woulda found this sooner but I was playing Diablo II most of the night. We’ve got to do it again real soon. ---

Thanks Scotti! It’s a Sony Mavica camera. The best Mother’s Day gift I’ve ever gotten. It’s pretty cool because it takes floppy disks. That way, you just take the disk out of the camera and put it into your computer to upload the pictures! OK, Techchick, I’ll forgive you this time. But next time, traffic or no, I want to see you there. 😉 Mr C and Fugazi, I had a very fun time! You guys are awesome! ---

Damn, **monster** , could you be any more beautiful? I am jealous of everyone who got to meet you. Especially **MrC**. For what it’s worth, I lost my dope-fest virginity last night. I’m sure that details and pictures of the debauchery will be available soon. ---

I would, at this point, post minutes, but I don’t seem to be able to remember much. I sure as hell recall the hangover from the next day, that’s for sure. ---

Ha ha! I was going to say the same thing! Hmmm, here goes. We met around 6 or 7 PM. We drank lots of beer. We took lots of pictures. Mr C is very tall. Fugazi is very sweet, and much more reserved than Mr C and me. We all went home. The End.
