Wow! Great photos!

I was surprised to find myself making a cameo appearance in one of them (Page#1, in the photo w/ the guy in the red Hawaiian shirt drinking from the shot luge. I'm the goatee-ed guy in the background w/ the grass skirt holding the margarita glass).

My photos are supposed to be back this afternoon. If I can figure out how to post them, I'll put 'em up.

Quick question:

Is anyone here going to "Meeting of the Minds" in Key West this year?

I'm fortunate enough to be going, and I'd love to meet up with any Buffetnews folks who will be there too (Liz, Talon, RednekkPH, Reefdiver...I'm looking in your direction!)

Besides, I've got this nifty nametag now, and I need to use it to help find other BN'ers!

Where were you guys parked at? I was just down the row from the green umbrella with the misters.

Not that it matters, as I do recall taking the parking lot tour but it is all a big blur (well, excpet for the beer bong stops along the way....)

We were parked one row back from the ice bar in the pictures, kinda off to the right from the stage.

Craiger,
The guy in the red shirt drinking from the luge was me. Except it wasn't a shot, is was a bottle of corona, minus a mouthfull or so. It's funny the things that seem like a good idea at the time

3) Did anyone get the name of the folks who had the giant multi-person ice sculpture/shot luge that was parked behind us near the edge of the lot? I believe they were some kind of commercial ice business, but I didn't manage to get any contact info. The beer mug made entirely of ice was also one of the coolest things I'd ever seen.

That guys name is Rich (he's actually my ex-GF's neighbor) if you need contact info i can probably get it for you

He was parked next to me....I think he caught a pretty good buzz,and had a lot of fun. His name is Rich Bubin www.icecreations.com

Oh yeah! I remember seeing a few folks drinking bottles of beer through that thing. Seems like a perfectly good idea to me.

Craiger...I was hoping to make MOTM this year...but I'm taking a scuba trip to Bonaire the week before.My pockets arent deep enough to make it to both.Next year...yep,I'm plannin on being there.

just wondering how your dog is...ours has had seizures in the past (not often, thankfully)...our vet gave us diazepam--which i believe is a generic valium--to give to him when it does happen...anyway, hope all is well.

Sorry Craiger, no MOTM in the budget this year. I hope to go back and make it my annual pilgrammage again. I wish I were going, it's such a great time.

I'm still waiting on my Buffett pics, can't wait to see the one of me, your dad, and your dad's friend (the one with the nipples

)

Here's a couple more, they're from my disposable camera, so they're not the best quality. Craiger, hope you don't mind me putting your family tree up here!!

Craiger's mom and dad are on the left, not sure about the other 2!

Here's me getting a little grabby with Craiger's Dad's friend!!

Me and the Cousin:

And me and CaptinChaos!

I have more pictures on the way!!
