I nagged and nagged and nagged and nagged and nagged **SPOOFE** to make a Dopefest page. He refused. So, I nagged and nagged and nagged and nagged and nagged for him to send me the images. Which he finally did earlier this evening. With further ado, here they are. [L.A. Dopefest - June 16th 2001](http://mercsjunk.tripod.com/fest.html) I hope you all enjoy them. ---

There are an awful lot of pictures of me in there, so I’m assuming either **SPOOFE** has a crush on me that he took all those pictures of me, or **Merc** has a crush on me that he put them all up. Me, I have a crush on **Doob** , but that’s not news. And damn, I’m hot! Esprix ---
