It was a fun night. Lovely to meet you guys.

So it *was* a shoutout. Awesome, 'pode thanks.

yay, cute bunnies in NYC! Thanks for the bday shouts... I felt the warmth!

Good god, somebody knows I exist! Yay!!

Great pics! I love the "knuckles" shots.

I love meet-up photos were everybody actually looks like they're having fun! Nice job me3dia.

I'd love to see a topics or buzz-words recap of a meetup - where you just leave a notebook on the table and people write down odd phrases,words, or topics that come up. I'm sure it'd make no sense to someone that wasn't there (and maybe to some that were) , but I bet it'd be funny as hell to read later. Especially the the night progresses. I know I'm always amazed the diversity of topics that come up at meetups. I recall once leaving a meetup with four or five phrases that I swore I'd use for mixdisc titles, but forgot by the next morning.

Oh, looks like it was fun! I'm glad I missed it!

Well, I mean I'm glad I was doing other stuff; I wish there were two mes so I could show up and have fun with you guys even while I'm sitting on bubbles of thrill with my heart in my throat and my head on the moon.

What am I saying? If there were another me, he'd be right there with me falling in love. But I'm glad youse had a great time and a little part of me wishes I coulda been there. That's not really true at all; if there were twenty of me we'd all be jostling me for space, pushing my head out of my way to be the one she spoke to. So it's not exactly true that I wish I was with youse, but I mean the nicest of things.

Lemme try again. I'm glad we all had a great time Friday night.

Great photos! I enjoyed meeting you two. Would Cinnamon have been given that name if she hadn't had red hair/been a boy? If I'd been a boy I would have been Adam Josiah--which was given to my brother.

If I were a girl, I would've been named jonmc. and I'd've made an ugly-ass girl.

I'm sitting on bubbles of thrill with my heart in my throat and my head on the moon.

Well said, Hugh.

Cinnamon was named after the song, "Cinnamon Girl," so I doubt she would have been a Cinnamon boy. Probably would've been a Christopher or something.

Slack, that's a good idea. We spent a lot of time talking about jonmc's spicy garlic nuts, Baltimore, baseball, Twisted Sister, the gorillapod, and probably a lot else.

Hugh, love triumphs over all, especially folks from the Internets in from out of town. I'm glad you had such a wonderful evening.

jonmc's spicy garlic nuts

That's what I'm talking about! I love out-of-context phrases. And maybe I shouldn't prejudge, but I'm pretty sure that I don't like jonmc's spicy garlic nuts.
