Pathman Coming to DC

“broken bottles is more her line”

“Hmm, you might end up with what's-her-name again...”

“exactly! you'll hold all our big keychains, right??

mine and Pathman's pictures are on Phil's site; ynami is a slacker.
;-P”

“You think I'm going to recognize you in a dark bar from those? I guess I'll just wonder around asking if anyone has seen some keys...”

“I may be able to go. My cell ph# is 404-788-4081. I don't have my computer online yet so I haven't been able to check here too much for a few days. sucks.”

“Posting a cell number? I have a bridge over the potomac for sale if you're interested.”

“my pic is an old one (22 years!)

I'll be shaking off a very blue Mountain Hardwear rain jacket.

Convention wear or jeans?”

“i'm wearing jeans! and i'll have monkeys hanging off me.”

“say it isn't so!”

“MOO HAA HAA!”

“Well, you kids have fun! I hope they send me out there again sometime for a junket. Don't let the monkeys drink too much!”

“i'm not sure what a "junket" is, but i hope so too, Aero!
:-)”

“A small piece of junk.”

“I'll bring the camera and post 'em tonight, unless I am too inebriated.

RE the early start time, I have a meeting at 0800, so I have to get my beauty sleep, but I only need six or so anymore.”

“Casual dress is fine there. Aren't people supposed to be hungover with no sleep at weekend meetings?

And What's this about Monkey's?”

“Anybody object to non TT hangalongs? Not likely, but you never know. I'll give anybody proper warning. MD's are actually in the minority at this meeting, or I wouldn't even dream of it.”

“no objections, i'll have 2 non-TT hangalongs!”

“normally would not do it (post cell #) but I don't have computer access right now and I am going to be changing my number very soon anyway.

don't have a need for a bridge right now but thanks for asking.”

“nashville, do you need a call or do you have details?”

“need a call. Thanks”

“stay near the phone!”

“I object to anyone not drinking!

Are ya sure, nash? It's beautiful. It's called "Bearmagnet Memorial Bridge" but the locals call it "Memorial Bridge" for short. :)”

“Nash is take care of.”

“Who's not drinking?”

“OK, see everbody in a few.”

“mmmmk!”

“Nashville hiker and Bearmagnet were no shows, ynamiynami [thank God for cut and paste] and lyra showed up, had a great time. Thanks!!!!”

“ouch, it hurts to move my eyeballs right now...and i think i'm still slightly drunk. LOL! i "only" had 4 beers, but that's a lot for me.

we had a super-fun time, i laughed my ass off. especially when i asked Pathman a question about getting acclimated to higher elevations...he actually said, "i bet if you did a search on TT, you would find the answer to that one...i remember typing up some good stuff about that." LMAO!!! while he was sitting right there...get it? aaannnyhoo, i could absolutely not wait to bust on him for that one.
:-D

bearmagnet & nashvillehiker, were you guys there? i'm lucky i figured out who Pathman was...i kept staring at this other dude who i thought might be him before i got there, and i think i was creeping the guy out. LOL!”

“I got stuck in traffic on the beltway. Took me an hour to go 4 miles. Then when I got there it was nearly 8:30 and I had a hard time finding a parking space. I looked around but didn't know who I was looking for. Anything going on tonight?”

“oh no! you were there, and we missed you? the traffic thing sucks...the rest of us were lucky, we got to metro there. we were there until 12:30 or so, so you probably walked right by us!”

“man, Bearmagnet was there too. He couldn't find you guys either. Man. That is a bummer.”

“Hey Path! You looking mighty slim these days, dude!!! Glad you folks had a good time. BTW, I took Mark-O to the 'Back Fence' in the Village Friday night. Great 4 person band there. Awesome time...”

“You betchyer ass it was Treebeard.

Thank goodness I had a New Yorker with me or I would still be wandering Manhattan.

Treebeard, I got fooled by the time change and had to wait for the 9:00 AM bus.
I didn't arrive in Baltimore until 1:15.
I was supposed to open the library at 1:00......uh oh!
The boss took care of it and I'll live to fight another day.”

“Dang lyra, you picked up some old guys!”

“older'n dirt”

“I was right in assuming using photo's from this site wouldn't work in spotting you! ;)

I called Nash hoping he was with y'all but you know how well that worked out. Where were y'all sitting?”

“So was it just the three of you?”

“yep, tarpie didn't lower himself, and the other two didn't find us.

We were at the end of the bar upstairs. I even hung my bright blue rain jacket on the back of the chair so you might see it.”

“DOH!

I barely glanced at the bar - I thought y'all were talking about bringing a bunch of people along so I concentrated on tables!”

“"I even hung my bright blue rain jacket on the back of the chair so you might see it."

Did that beacon draw in any unwanted bar denizens?

Madame's Organ?”

“LOL, I checked out a lot of women looking for lyra. No unwanted denizens.”

“Rotten luck, pal.....”

“"older 'n dirt," LOL! i'm pretty old myself. did i mention, that was more fun than a barrel of monkeys? :-D by the way, i look either stark-raving mad or really drunk in those pics...nice!”

“lyra, you're a crass act, all the way!”

“I vote for stark, raving mad...
Where were the monkeys hiding?

did I mention my ass still hurts?”

“You and that ass.......”

“what is it with you people and monkeys? (bunch of freaks...)”

“At least there aren't monkeys flying out of it...”

“I like monkeys.”
