PCW, next time we can ask the bartender to slip DD non-alcoholic beer instead! heehee.

I said I was going to work & more than half the people clapped. That caught me by surprise, too. They used to clap for Beethovan too, but he couldn’t hear it either, but his eyes told him what his ears could not.

OK, this is my 3rd attempt attempt to post to this thread. Sorry for the delay guys. Let me just say I had an incredible time. Everybody was great. Witty, fun and cool as hell. How could I have expected anything less, right? Sorry I missed voguevixen, but I plan on being in the area again in the not too distant future, so some other time, promise. Special thanks to Doob for his knowledge of Monterey and the surrounding areas, it made for a great day, i was very impressed. And, of course, very special thanks to Demo for putting up with me the entire weekend. I couldn’t have hoped for better company. Now let’s see if I can use some of what I learned on my first CA trip: I like had a totally killer time, ya know dudes!?

Oh, it was no problem, it was nice having an audience who appreciated me prattling on about local history :). You two were great company that day. Sure made it a better weekend than I usually have (sleep all day…). Of course the saturday meeting rocked as well. oh DD: Like I said in ICQ, dont worry about it, it’s hard to really piss me off or offend me :).

So like dudes, where are we gonna like have the next one? I think the winery idea would be killer, but i dont know how much money I’ll have around that time (not to mention the family reunion i’m going to in July). But, these meetings are like so killer dudes, they’re rad!

Is it just me or does DD look like Demo? Maybe I should have drank something after all.

I say we rent a limo and go from winery to winery… either that or I hear there is a train that does does the same. I don’t particularly want to drink and drive altho I know some of us don’t have that problem. 😉

Any suggestions?

This life is a test. It is only a test. If it had been an actual life, you would have received further instructions on where to go and what to do.
