Thanks Chief. Take a good look 'cause it’s the only time _you’ll_ ever see me in that position. I got a few pic developed also. I threw together a couple of pages to post them on, so forgive the roughness. Most of the pics are [here](http://www.geocities.com/aenea01/page3.html). With one special one [here](http://www.geocities.com/aenea01/page4.html). ---

Now, where the hell are the rest of the pictures? I KNOW there were more than two cameras there! ---

Real life has decided to kick me in the ass, folks. Pics may be up tonight, more likely tomorrow. I apologize. ---

Everytime I read the thread title I get mental whiplash (possibly **dc-man’s** intention?). Could you make the “minutest” of fixes so it reads “minutes?” ---

ChiefScott: > [@](#): > > BTW, was it Drain’s idea to pose beside the nifty Navy poster? Why, yes it was. She seemed a little _too_ excited about it. ??? Satan, you’d better keep an eye on her. 😉 Hopefully, she’ll get a taste of the ‘Navy’ thing soon, but I can’t answer about the “I Want To Be A Man” part. I’m doubtin’ that Satan will let that happen. ---

Yeah Surgo, it was like we were all celebs…cameras flashing everywhere. I think me, you, Cabbage and Myndephuquer (who just lives a few miles down the road from me) were the only ones cameraless. If anyone out there hasn’t been to a dopefest…be prepared to have your picure taken about 30,000 times. 😃 ::Whew!:: ---

What I meant to say was “a taste of the ‘Navy’ _beans_ soon” Um…er…we, uh, were sharing bean recipes, uh, yeah, and…I, uh, told her to try Navy beans with honey on crackers. Now I remember –_that’s_ the ‘Navy bean thing’! (or maybe that was something completely different…hmmm) I apologize for any confusion. ('sorry about the bulkhead – you didn’t get any on the carpet, did you?) (btw – after looking at the picts, I misquoted the sign that Drain stood beside. It said, “Gee, I wish I were a man!” @#&%, that was _not_ one of my better posts. :)) ---

AS I SAID, _grumble_ My personal life has taken a quick trip into hell. (Unfortunately, it ain’t Raleigh.) So…I hope to get DCNewsman’s pics up tonight. I’ll post once they’re done. Sorry folks. ---

Having a development problem, then I will have to send them to RT so that he can post them. Hang on to your horses. ---

The one you were wearing in your right ear. It was different from most earring that I’ve seen. It covered more of the ear lobe than most earrings. ---

That is a mermaid holding a blue pearlescent (sp) stone. It’s an earring/earcuff. Her tail is the earcuff part. I got it from the Renaissance Faire in Ca (where I worked for a long time). I can scan you a pic when I get home if you remind me. I have several pieces of odd jewelry like that, I’m into odd jewelry. I have an armband that I wear almost daily too. But I left it in the truck for the Shindig, didn’t want to wierd you folks out _too_ much. 😉 The people who I bought it (the earring) from have a little jewelry business, I can probably find the name and # if you are interested. Let me know. ---
