Here’s an interesting observation about the first photo album of Skippy’s. There are 3 pictures of auntie em (his new bride) and 8 of Enderw24.
Thangs that make you go hmmmm.
That’s right, and don’t you forget it!
Even more interesting is that the vast majority of those Ender-centric photos were taken on Enderw24’s camera. He just borrowed a memory card from me for the day–which is why I posted them.
That said… Enderw24’s a fine-looking fellow. I’m sure auntie em wouldn’t mind me exploring in the confines of another, more personal “photo shoot”. Not at all.
Not a bit.
Nope. Ender might, but this isn’t about him, is it?
Don’t think that auntie em felt left out, though. Did you see her shirt? Obviously she was sportin’ a pretty damn big heart-on for me. 
Yes yes. Quite attractive. I had a 5 minute shower that morning before racing to the Plaza through 100 degree weather sporting three day old stubble and I spent the day covering myself in chocolate and swimming in dog urine. Who wouldn’t want to do me? I can hardly keep my hands off myself just thinking about it.
It’s a well known fact the The Perfect Master and Santa Claus share naughty-and-nice lists. Guess which part of the list you’re in? Besides, didn’t Cecil say something about a twenty was standard for those wearing g-strings?
Okay, so we’ve got one vote for ouisey and a nonverbal yet obvious vote for Enderw24 from SkipMagic (via picture quantity and admitted memory card sharing) for hottest Doper in attendance. Me, I’m voting for elmwood, but only 'cause he let me & Horsefoal snap pictures of him. A close second was this guy doing his best imitation of Clark W. Griswold from European Vacation. Cast your vote folks! Hanging chad and all! Who was the hottest doper/protester in attendance?
All the ladies were quite lovely and attractive, but the hottest was clearly and definitely Mrs. Gary T.
I thought I was hot, but I realized when we got home that the heat was getting to me–I should have jumped into the fountain. I’ve never been mistaken in thinking I was all wet.
It was certainly enjoyable seeing those I’d met before, and meeting those I hadn’t. A special thanks to those who made the longer drives from outside the metro area.
Might have to do this more often than once a year.
Oh my God.
We had a party for my brother two weeks ago at that EXACT table!
Italian restaurant on the plaza, windows facing east onto the fountain? The only long north-south table in the back?
Do doo doo doo, do doo doo doo…
That’d be the table!
Obviously I have to abstain from the vote because 1.) I’m a hot, blond, long-legged weather girl and I don’t want you to think I’m biased and, really, 2.) How can one compete with the Griswold guy? Did you see the skull he’s using for his belt buckle?
I love him. Seriously. No one else quite expresses “boner” the way he does. He’s a poet.
A visionary.
I survived the ride home. Wikkit and WithaK were very entertaining. Getting home took less time than getting to Kansas City.
It was great meeting you all. I can’t wait until the next one.
Horseflesh, its a 7 person hot tub, so you can come and bring 5 of your closest friends.
Oh, and I want to thank Sperfur for giving me a ride home, despite my terrible navigating skills.
“Ok, turn left…no, the other left! Now turn on the next street. Oh, wait, I meant the next street.”
How the hell could you forget ouisey? All of the doper ladies are ridiculously attractive, and us doper dudes are, well, look at the pictures…
I think Skip had the right idea.
It was a great time. The food was spectacular, the plate captain cool enough to keep a side of beef in for a month. The people were fun, and it was worth the drive. Speaking of the drive, I think Erik and Misty win for longest totat travel time, and I do for longest time driving. We got to Missouri via Kansas from Iowa, so that has to be an interesting journey, right? It was a good drive, though, and I hope they let me come with them to the Columbia fest.
I wish the Unnamed One would have shown up, as I’d really like to meet her.
It was great fun. Meeting Cecil was great, as was getting attacked by short sock monkeys.
Are we going to start a thread for the 7 words you can’t say on the SDMB? Is anyone going to link to the threads they talked about?
Will someone e-mail me when the next fest cometh?
Feh, I got $150.
Can’t tell you what I did for the other $50, though.
Did you get them all in dollar bills?
Shaddap, ya fat redneck-gry. Hi Opal-gry! Driveway-gry, parkway-gry. Fnord-gry.
OH NO! I totally forgot about the Dopefest ! OK, who was supposed to remind me that this is July?
What about shortest drive? Six minutes for me, but it was through two states.

Twelve minutes, now. 
So, is longer better?
