@Roberta,
'boida, that pic was taken after you and thomas had left...
tsar, your allegiance shift tipped the scales -- those damn yankees completed a sweep last night in da bronx...
***
had an amazing time yesterday
!
it was surreal, but in a good way.
meeting the wabbit and 'boida have been long-time goals.
accomplishing both on the same day was like winning the lottery...
it was great meeting frank, kicky, david and joe nation.
thomas and littlek are old friends at this point because we've had so many meet-ups...
the restaurant was loud and the table was way too small for that many people.
but, as is usually the case, the locale and food play bit parts in gatherings...
once we hit the pavement, we formed smaller groups and headed over to the Frying Pan, frank leading the way.
there we were able to hear each other much better.
as we drank our beverages of choice, the conversation gradually transformed into a (somewhat heated) discussion
of the difference between aetheism and agnosticism
! ..
