In the same building where I work, they make some pretty good homemade pies. Think two of them will go to waste?

I’ll go back to the email. Thks

Oooh, when come to Dopefest, bring pie!

It will NEVER go to waste!

I’m making brownies! (no, not “special” brownies-cheesecake brownies and M&M minies brownies!)

Everyone seemed to have a good time, regardless of the Canada geese and the land mines.

Lots of geese, but at least they were friendly.

It was nice getting to meet everyone. Very amusing that **Isosleepy’s** accent slowly got thicker throughout the evening. Must’ve been the beer talking.

**Sam** thanks for showing up. Sorry that you had to drive so far and only got to stay for a few hours. Next time I’ll make sure we’ve got some lights.

**Steelerphamily** , I won’t let anyone know that you’ve got a telemarketer in the house. I promise. Also, send me off an e-mail sometime to get some NWN going.

**Siege** , I’m sure some of us will make it out to the RG. Bring swords.

**Guin** it was nice getting to meet you. E-Mail me and let me know when your next free saturday is for swing dancing.

All in all, it was a good time. The food took a little while to cook, and the geese sometimes appeared as though they wanted to join us.

At some point, I’m sure someone will come in with the list of posters mentioned, but at work, I don’t have that kind of time. There were a LOT.

There was mention of getting together again in the fall. Very preliminary, but North Park is a great place to get together. If more concrete plans come about, there’ll be a thread.

**HideoHo,** I must thank you profusely for your network advice. My LAN was working properly within minutes.

We need to find a place with an electric outlet- we can have a LOT more food if we can cook a little and use crockpots.

Keep in touch with me and we can get the plans moving. This time we need to get a few more Dopers to show up- not just the 'burghers.

I’m looking forward to the Labor Day RG too. With a little luck, maybe **Voronis** (Mrs. 'phan) will get the job with Siege…
