a short notice gathering in Boston anyone?

What a fine lookin' bunch of goofballs we are though eh?

Osso - You get on up here and we'll have another gathering in your honor! We Bostonians like feating the out-of-town guests. (Like we need another reason to go drinking or something. Ha!)




Yeah.. It's a seasonal thing. I grow it out starting around Columbus Day Weekend and let it go until Easter or so and then shave it off for the summer months.

Great pics! Thanks to all who posed for and/or took and posted.

Mr. Jespah is now in possession of fishin's beard.

Mr. Jespah's a sweetie! Really nice eyes.

Can I have it when HE'S done with it?







...I want to glue it to my forehead

Thanks, soz!

Perhaps we'll compare our curly moustaches at the next gathering (see The Able2Know Conspiracy of Doom for more info).

jjorge, you want an auburn beard?

Jes,

Hmm... well, it wouldn't have to STAY auburn.

BTW I'm not trying to PRESSURE anyone, Mr. Jespah can keep it as long as he wants. I just thought, if it was being passed around... you know...


Besides, I'm friendly with my barber. I'll just ask him if he wants any help 'Sweeping up'.

Did Diane leave before the picture-taking started?

Note to skulkers and lurkers:

The pictures don't tell all...Diane WAS there, but slipped away
too soon.

photos at last......... actually little k was very efficient. Thanks to her.

Yes, Soz I had back surgery about three weeks ago. It was just scope surgery, removed a cyst on L5-S1 facet joint. It was very successful and I'm recuperating very well. And I feel sooooooooooooo much better. That damn thing has been hurting for months......months, I tell ya. I think I've had a personality change since the surgery, I'm nicer (I think) and less irritable (for sure.)

Glad it went so well!

Thanks for the pics LittleK. It was deja vu all over again.

Well, isn't this fun! It really is a hoot to see all these avatars and names come to life. Everyone is very handsome, though fishin least so.

Sugar...my question is...do you stop long enough to pose???? hummm???
Yeah...think about that one.



Yeah, where are the pics of Diane? Did we get her before she had to run? I thought so but, could be wrong.

Its nice to see that all are a fine looking bunch isnt it? Just goes to show you all the smart people are good looking too dangit.

The pics little k posted so far are the ones I took. And I unfortunately didn't arrive until Diane had gone. I missed Diane, and I'm very sorry about it. Hopefully Rosbourne or Jes took pictures which include Diane and these will come later. Is this true guys?

Also, Sugar, I think I did get a posed picture of you in the next group of photos. Remember? I passed the camera around.....but maybe that was before you got there. In any case, if not I must have thought the action shots were flattering because I deleted all the bad ones. I think you look great in these pictures. And it's true, you seem to usually be in action, therefore they are true to form.

Thanks, Soz

Sug! There is one in there of you posing. Your mouth is closed at least heehee.

rosborne has also posted his pix (minus one of fishin that was 'too intense') to the album. All the pix I posted are from Lola's camera.

Hi Lola,

Unfortunatley I don't think my camera got passed around until Diane had already gone. We didn't start thinking about camera's until more people had arrived.

All the pics I had are posted to littlek's site already.

Maybe there's one (or more) of Diane on Jespah's rolls.....? So sad to have missed her.

pic of fishin too intense also included horrid shot of Q and k was there as well....I could crop it to just you k if you really want to see it

Hummm...maybe jes remembers if she started before Diane left...I have a sinking feeling we missed her though.

Well, you could have showed and bumped me up the ladder there buddy!

darn it! Diane, please send photo of you at once. We need it in the official pictorial record. Kindly simulate Vinny T's. You'll need a dark restaurant with lots of people around. :-)
