Well one thing is for sure: lots of beers and a little bit of pomegranate margarita on top of almost no food is a recipe for fun...as well as wearing a table full of red wine and beer in one's lap as a certain blond misses her chair trying to sit down.

I need to find that photo of me me and Randy. I think everone will be shocked when they see it: he did NOT have his hands around my throat like Homer choking Bart! ^

Nice to see/meet everyone!! I promise not to take so long to get back to another DCHH...

Very fun evening and it was great seeing old friends and meeting new FTers. After 8 years on this board, I finally met SD1K! Having Randy Peterson show up was a bonus for sure.

Next time, I will be certain not to park my car in a garage that shuts down at midnight. I wanted to stay out much longer but couldnt.

Great seeing you again, too MileageAddict, next time I get lost out there in your neck of the woods I'll be sure to stop by.

I'll be sure to let my redneck neighbors know so they don't shoot at you.

Sorry that I was late in arriving, so I missed meeting many of the folks who had to leave early. It was a fun evening - man, who knew tortilla chips would be hard to find at a cantina?

Pranu does a great job of keeping the FIRST post on this thread updated with any pending activities ... there is one listed there for Oz's visit to town.

Thanks for the timely update pranu. ^ ^

Public computer access from here in snowy eastern Quebec province is patchy, to say the least. And will stay that way until Friday most likely.

I had an email from crhptic that Nate is now definite for Friday evening. ^

Just changed lawchild to Definite - and added Jason, from his post below.

I just updated milepost 515 below accordingly. Seems like we are 14 or 15 at last tally? @:-)

Count me in! I think I must be the only DC FTer who will do both the 11/10 Clyde's dinner and then fly out 11/11 for the London DO weekend.

See you there Friday night.
