Hey folks. Great Dopefest last night. NYC now has the record for most attendees (44 confirmed by Tripler when I left last night). KHespos and I had an awesome time and it was really cool to meet all of you face to face.
Normally, I’d post a photo gallery to the Hespos.com site, but KHespos and I have a lot of web development work to do today, so I just zipped up the photos and threw them up on the server. If anyone is putting together a photo archive, the photos are at http://www.hespos.com/sdmb/photos.zip (Hint, hint, Opal)
Photo highlights:
Tripler and lurkernomore brawling hockey-style in their Devils and Rangers jerseys
Candids from Chumley’s and from the Village Idiot
Satan!
Biggirl and Nacho dancing
Photos of Cecil Adams dancing with several Dopers
Oh yeah…There’s also an mpeg of the infamous “bar dance” - you NYC Dopers know what I’m talking about and who’s involved: http://www.hespos.com/sdmb/bar_dance.mpg
Thanks all for a fun night. Let’s do it again soon.
Looks like you guys all had a great time! At least now I have faces to put with names. sigh Next time, I’ll have to look into the plane ticket no matter HOW late it might be!
Lemme tell you, Cecil looks nothing like I thought he would. Jack Dean Tyler kind of does, though. I have a horrible image in my memory of the guy who got the JDT name tag with his pants casually undone in the bar, but I’m hoping that was just the DTs making me see stuff.
I got up early so I could get a head start on the day. KHespos is in the next room designing the logo and navigation for my new site. I’m designing the architecture and dealing with my new purchase of vBulletin (trying to integrate it with my hosting provider). vBulletin is the same BB software that the SDMB uses.
Not to say I didn’t have a crippling hangover this morning…Who was responsible for all those vodka shots last night? I swigged four huge glasses of water, 3 aspirins and a Tylenol this morning and I’m STILL feeling it…
I’m not looking forward to putting together all this IKEA furniture, either.
I believe that Manhattan was responsible (bad word choice perhaps) for those vodka shots. I’ve been slow all day today. No, my activities for the day went at normal speed, -I- was slow. Thank you all for coming to the dopefest, and next time we have to get more people. Has the NotesNazi™ posted the notes yet?
Wow, I guess Rosebud and I left a bit too early and missed all the hookups, but it was still fun to meet such a nice, fun, friendly group. And I see my left arm in one of the pictures, which proves I was there ;).
