HEY! A big hats off to MADDOG for cowboyin' up and playing through the pain!
It was great to see all the old faces again, AND meet the new ones (at least the ones I hadn't met before)!
Next year we will hold an introductory class on meteorology for SHawk. "Yeah, this rain is just about over," as the rain beat a hole in the ground all night on Friday night.
We will also try to help Karaya with his lack of self-esteem. "In a little over 30 seconds I shot down more planes than I had bullets in the plane. But I'm only an average pilot."
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for
eight and a half hours on Friday night!
AND . . . If he passes out before dinner on Saturday night, he's going in the river! (And I'll personally drive to Pittsburgh and pick up Rosie, if he won't come.)
We need to find a ride for Boxboy!
Forcibly get Dragon stupid drunk if he won't do it on his own. And duct tape him to a tree if he makes MADDOG turn off "Midway" so he can watch "The Color Purple"!
Of course, I'm joking. But, as always, it was a great time with great food and friends we only see once a year -- one of my happiest times of the year!
Whoever is gonna take charge for next year, let me know if there is any local legwork needed. Be glad to help out.
