Herr Doktor,
Do you have any idea what time I got home after last year's Meet (Meat!) and Greet? Do you? I didn't think so.

Eight (8!) in the farkin' A.M., that's when!

Oh hell YES I'll be there!

Quite Sincerely,
Sensei

Sounds like somebody I know got laid.

The fact that it's YOU is what really surprises me.

Hey, no one was more surprised than me. I guess God looks out for drunks and fools, huh? I mean, just look at your success in the stock market! It's the only possible explanation.

Happily with my success on Wall Street, when push comes to shove, I can always go out and buy a date. You still have to rely on your good looks!

Mr Pyro, you just burnt me up with all your hospitality. Had much fun, but I still depress that I didn't get a SED bullet again this year, but then again I didn't get to meet SED and many of you poser posters because I went to use my camera at the M&G and noticed it was missing and had to retrace my day's route to hopefully find it- didn't though. Showed up later but SED had left but got to have a glass of wine with you and that made it all good.

SED if I haven't sed it before you suck so where's my fucking bullet too!!!!


AIIZ

ps- you really only have to worry when the bullet is in the chamber!

You weren't there when people were disassembling the bullets and using magnifying lenses to ignite the powder.

Sorry I missed the party, I was still recovering from a physical assault against me earlier in the day. It didn't ruin my week, but it sorely fucked up my day.

My moral objection to planned activities on the playa kept me from remembering when the party was supposed to be, even though this was the one event I wanted to attend. I'm sorry I missed it.

I did enjoy meeting a few of you when I dropped off Zulegoona, and greatly appreciated being offered a refreshing NON-ALCOHOLIC beverage before driving off.

Maybe next year I'll overcome my fear of clocks and schedules. And social events. And bars. I have some work to do.

My good buddy blyslv was across the playa (7 & Esplanade) when a mutual friend chucked a suitcase at him as well as (or so the story goes) bashed him upside the head. Am I the only one who finds the humor in that?

I didn't make it too center camp this year.

And Doc, looking back I can see the non-stop laff riot it was. It just needed the perspective of time.

Thanks for being there for me, it meant a lot.

Oh Dear Dr. Pyro, It came to my attention by my camp mates (eplaya bar Camp/T.C.) that Titwi and I's wedding planned for Thursday evening...duh forgot what thursday stands for...but In assimulating all the idea's in my mind...as our wedding isnt taking place till after sunset...we can still make it to M&G, and Invite anyone who is interested in chanting us out to the playa with large group...
EVERYONE is welcome, we will have pre-printed chants...1. on way out 2. during ceromony 3.on way back in.
So Now I have a plan, that I still wont miss your event! I only made 3 events last yr, yours was one of them! The Man burning was another! and Reno controlled burn platform the other!
Names pinemom, but my friends call me "Piney".
