Great time last night everybody, even if I have no idea what the rules of that sport were. I'll post the group picture when I get home!

Oooh. When I first saw this I thought it was 4:27 A.M. and you were posting from the after party at Shambles!

Anyway, fun time. By the end, I almost got it. It would have helped if that Werner character in front would have sat down occasionally!

Who was shouting last night?

Oh yeah, it was me, cheering on my girl Ska Face and her team The Fury onto victory !!!!! http://images.search.yahoo.com/searc...e+roller+derby

sigh, the stories I could have told, if only I had gone. Methinks life in shambles is what I would be feeling right now if I had though.

Carlos, a friend of mine taught me the following saying: carne de burro, no es transperente. (Rough translation is DOWN IN FRONT !)

I don't think anyone knows the rules, not even official Frank Lloyd Wrong.

Big thanks to AASweets for the ride to ORD :-:^:-:

My eggplant at Tufano's was delicious, much better than that broccoli & shells.

Awesome that there were some new faces last night as well !

Ha! You should've been sitting in front of the President of the Ska Face Fan Club!

That was your mistake sir -- you should've been watching official Scoreson Welles instead!

Seriously, great to see everyone last night, lots of laughs, good food, and great company.

Scoreson might have been the official to watch as the other official besides FLW, was Prefrontal Scoretex, he wasn't much use either

I was getting irritated by the lack of effort from Paine Goodall.

Had a blast with you all last night, and big thanks, as always, to Sweet Willie for organizing!

Great seeing some new faces and reconnecting with familiar ones. Looking forward to reuniting with Busty BraBender, Yom KaPOW, and Ska Face next time. Think they'd hang out with us if we offered them some eCerts?

Had a very good time at the Derby and dinner Saturday night: thanks everyone - and in particular Sweet Willie for organizing.

As good as the Derby was though, Dizzy Lizzy was my favorite - she stole the show.
