dmfriedman, Go back to the preceding picture, 15. Looking at the picture, let yourself take a deep, long, slow breath. Very slowly, one more breath, deep in, hold it, now very slowly out, watching your chest slowly, slowly deflate. One more time, that's it. Now, going back to that moment, the moment the picture was taken, doing your best to just be there, letting yourself easily recall the evening.

Notice jongar as he turns toward the cameraperson, looking surprised but helpless, his hand being held fast by the person opposite him. Noticing what is making him turn away. Letting yourself feel the constraint of his hand, noticing the amusing, and yet pleading, look in his eyes. Let yourself remember all the interesting personalities of the evening, and how our suave bola jongar found himself exactly where he thought he wanted to be, as he looked for a way out http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/biggrin.gif

Is it all coming back now? It was classic. We were all laughing our butts off. Along with seantheflyer's intro speech/comedy routine, jongar's predicament was another of the evenings various amusements.

Again, great, great time - thank you everyone for contributing http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/smile.gif

I have edited! There was lots to take pics of that nite, and you were one of the stars but, of all the pics of you, I edited down to only three, and I think you look pretty darn good in them. Pray tell, what pics would you like removed, Suave?

Lisa,

I think he was referring to the one where Saskia was fulfilling her "I can make your fantasies come true" motto while at our table... I unfortunately I have 2 pics of Saskia sitting on Jongar's lap... I think that was the one he wanted removed :P (although he could have just ASKED her to get off of his leg!)

Btw, I will send you copies of all of my photos if you like..

What the pictures dont show are the claw like grip she had of my 'third' leg.

I didn't see her gripping your arm like that!

But while she was sitting on your lap, her hands remained clearly visible at all times ... http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/tongue.gif

The only thing that amazes me at these events is that how fast the time actually goes by.

From the pre-event emails, the incredible lunch at the Palms, to the realistic 'Paris service' at Mon ami, andmeeting all you fine FTers.... I just wish we could do it all over again.

Hey what a great Idea.... Doo number 2 in Las Vegas... I'm in!!! http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/thumbsup.gif

But seriously now, I did have a blast. Thanks Nate, Randy, and every single one of you. Till we meet again.

(Missy, Easy to spot them, once you helped me to pick 'em out.. Thanks again LOL)

I must be discrete, i must be discrete. I must comment on other FTers behaviour. I must set n example and not enter this whirlpool of gossip and innuendo.

If I say it often enough, ill believe it

you were sober enough to remember what happened?

j/k :P

Although you were missing for about 30 minutes from the dinner .... wondering minds were missing you!

Thank you Randy for your unexpected generosity at the LAS DO!! My first FF mtg was very impressive.... what a great bunch of new acquaintances!
