What are you bringing to the Meet & Greet?

/thread drift-
Hey Figjam, just wanted say hey, do you know who you're honkin' at?
Sometime midweek I was on top of my camps artcar (The Black Rock Guardian) and we crossed paths somewhere between the temple and the city. You gave a toot on your trike horn, but we were quite a distance from each other before I realized, "Hey, that was FigJam!"
So, belated wave/honk back at ya!

I thought it ended at 8 too...

[Elderberry]

Actually a definite starting and ending time is a good thing. 6pm to 8 or maybe 9PM is good. Then the clean-up crew knows it's time to get to work and it also signals everyone that the event is over without looking rude, as the ending time has been announced in advance.

In the case of BDC, the Wine Bistro could then be opened back up to the public and the linger oners from the M&G could stay until the wine bistro officially closed. I have no clue what their normal hours of public operation are.

I did'nt know it extended past 8pm.

My headlight went out and I had to get back to camp and rig something up for night driving.

By the time I finished that, I figured the M&G was over.

I sooooooo wanted more time to visit all the new faces and spend some time planing Gaidawgs expatriation!!!

[theCryptofishist]

Ah. I meant 3playans.

I think I "ended" at about 8.

I'm at Austin City Limits festival at the moment. When I get back to aus I will come back with some collated suggestions and work with y'all (note learning to talk like an American) on how to make the 2012 a rockin and clean event.

Edited to fix drunken bad spelling.

[gaminwench]

I'm from Texas... we spell it ya'll (for no good reason); it's a contraction of you all...

[Trishntek]

[Elderberry]

Doesn't matter much, book learnin ain't all that big in Texas anyway. Just ask Gov. Perry!

The only line I know is "You got some, I want some, gimme some!"

This does'nt get as good a responce as you might think.

[Sham]

I hate to suggest this, but maybe you should consider roofies before using a line like that!

[Just_Joe]

That's how we spell it, but then again, I'm from Austin,......

[Drawingablank]

Well actually I was just joshin' cause my family is from North Carolina and likely none of us could spell it correctly anyway.

Get wholesale bamboo plates, bowls and utensils. You can burn all of it.

[graidawg]

I keep forgetting its almost an entire year to the next meet n greet.

[MyDearFriend]

I keep forgetting its almost an entire year to the next meet n greet.

not that long GET BUSY!!!!

I have resolved to get a proper ration of sleep before the next M&G (being up for 36 hrs straight was NOT a good prep strategy) and, to NOT WORK the next one. Though I promise you Mel I will help you out beforehand, right up until 6:01 PM. I want a turn to eat & drink & hug & smooch & talk to my dear friends face to face, TYVM.

I took charge of the leftover nametags not many of those, actually, delivered as many as I could on-playa and have just a few left to mail out. Please PM me a mailing address if you are on this list:

I didn't end up leaving until sometime around midnight... The lights were literally turned out about 30 minutes before that. Heh, we, about 4-5 of us, had flashlights that reflected quite nicely off of our pearly white smiles!
Next year, my friends, next year we shall meet & greet again

Me and my girlfriend will bring lanterns! If everyone tries to bring a lantern we can have a bright area.

I like to think "The gates open in 49 weeks"
Sounds like less time to me. Especially how fast weeks seem to fly by.

Amen.

[Sail Man]

Seems I made the Table of Shame one more year.



Dam blinky lights, buckets of beer, playa time.......



Very glad a lot of you did find me though.



What a Great Year.

Yeah, but you made last year so your golden for a few years. Maybe next year you can help me kidnap MDMF and bring his nut kicking ass there.

[gerlachedNloaded]

working on a return in 2012 to properly meet the people from the blur of 2010. and bringing the padre

I had a dream last night that I was on the Eplaya MnG yearbook committee. I guess I was the only one on the committee. I took everyone's photo, a brief bio, and a retinal scan (It was a dream...), and made yearbook pages in MS Word or something in my trailer. I got email addresses (and glowing green chips???) from everyone who was photographed so they would get a copy of the book. I would send it to them as a PDF or I printed and bound them on the playa. Some people who didn't want to be photographed tried getting copies but Yiggy & Figgy convinced them it was a bad idea. Larry tried buying a copy from an Eplayan and something crazy happened to him, I wish I could remember. Then a soft serve ice cream machine showed up in my trailer and I drove all over the playa sharing the yummy goodness. Delle was serving cones from a tray while wearing a tiny kitchen apron and Savannah was managing the crowd with a bullwhip and a helmet that had four megaphones on it. Suddenly we were in downtown San Francisco in the rain and nobody wanted ice cream...

I like the idea of some kind of yearbook. I really, really do! I initially thought the dream inspired 'get photographed, get a yearbook' policy was great but then thought about the Eplayans that can't make it to the burn. But then I reconsidered. I think it'd be a fair way to go. I know some folks wouldn't want to have their photo or identity seen by just anyone. I think the policy would lend a certain intimacy to the book and its participants and give it a personalized feel. The printing & binding on the playa is a total non-starter but emailing PDF's would be very doable.

Anyhow, it was a really cool dream.

[lazerfox]

I love your dream/idea and fully offer my support!
(I can edit images & pages like a mother...no really I am a mother and a marketing rep at a pretty large company)

[Sail Man]

Crypto,
Yes, sorry. I was not thinking (pulls foot out of mouth yet again).
How about plan B?

Not intentional felony.

Plan B would be myself or any number of other willing eplayans to be her man-servant and do thine bidding

[Sail Man]

It seems most of ePlayans are on the early side of town. If it weren't for that, I would suggest Retrofrolic could host a Tuesday get together. It would be a reason for some of you to venture over to the dark side,,,,,

I promise you won't have to suck cock or get whipped,,,, unless ya want to

I bet if we made that the requirement for admission to the Eplaya MnG it may cut down on some of the traffic

[Sail Man]

There was Newcastle Ale on tap at the M&G? Where the hell was I?

Wandering around with a bottle of Absinthe?
