Without a doubt... now who's gonna NOT be too lazy to open a word document and record the contact info that all of us who want a Philly net meet?

I'd gladly help get it together, but I can't do it myself. You can PM me if you want, we'll get some prelim info started. Ideas on where to go?

<< woohoo~! that girl was holding an elph s110

~ed >>

That would be my digicam except it's an ELPH S100. I picked one up from Amazon.com for $300 last Nov before they ran out of stock. I love it and carry it around with me everywhere.


I have a bunch of pics from Sat night that I will be emailing with captions to Soulflare soon, after I resize them. I have more pics from Sunday's activities but those will hafta wait till tonight/tomorrow. I can't get my CF reader to install on my work PC.

I had an awesome time in Canada! I took advantage of the exchange rate and picked up 3 six-packs of Canadian beer for my bf, 2 Cuban cigars, a Canadian flag, Canadian condoms (pour votre plaisir ), a box of SMARTIES, and ketchup-flavored chips hehe.

kei and yakko, I have Easter presents for you guys.

My parents actually met in Canada before immigrating to the US in '72 and were in fact hitched at Toronto City Hall. Neat, eh?


~EDIT~

Ok I just emailed 12 more pics to Soulflare so hopefully he'll add them to his netmeet album soon. BTW Mike, I really like the design for your pics page. Did you create that banner and logo just for this?

FYI with my expert sleuthing skills, I figured out that the guy sitting to the right of eakers at dinner was Kerry AKA kvizbar. Sorry noone was able to catch your name in the din of the restaurant!

 

[yllus]

Glad to see you got home okay, karenkins.

 

[Soulflare]

Added 12 new photos from Klee58!

LOL @ Ketchup chips. The next day I had a craving for ketchup chips and ate just about
an entire bag while watching the USA/Canada hockey game.

Sorry for messing up your name Kvizbar, I thought you said Kalli instead of Kerry. My bad,
my hearing isn't what it used to be.



<< Did you create that banner and logo just for this? >>



Yep. I spent a couple of hours working on the site's template back on Thursday night.

Looks like everyone had a blast I think someone should organize a national Anantech Forums Convension in Las Vegas or Orlando

Cheers,

First, I must say... Eakers... Even though I'm gay, you're a dish.

Second, why the hell wasn't I invited?

 

[docmanhattan]

did you guys do anything more than sit around a table? c'mon, where are the drunken action photos? dancing? lewd and illegal activity on public property?

 

[jaybert]

Haha, i got one of my friend's the same "toy". Its a "massager" *wink* *wink*. Got it shipped directly from Japan....hehehee



<< *kat. <-- proud owner of a new hello kitty "toy". I LOVE YOU WINSTON! >>

 

[TuffGirl]

<< did you guys do anything more than sit around a table? c'mon, where are the drunken action photos? dancing? lewd and illegal activity on public property? >>

This may be an illegal offense in Canada, but noone got even near drunk the entire weekend. Besides, some of us are wacky enough sober. Apparently, you missed the pics on PAGE 4 Soulflare's site.

MORE PICS FROM SUNDAY'S ACTIVITIES TO COME TONIGHT/TOMORROW, depending on if Soulflare can put them up amidst his pc upgrade.

Windogg uploaded some pics the other day. Check them out

Too bad I couldn't go. I should've gone. I went to the Gorillaz concert at the Docks which was IMHO the worst concert I've ever gone to. No opening act. No encore. They had animations playing the whole time which was cool, but they played behind a curtain the whole time which I thought was uncool. My $40 would have been better spent at the meet. Anyhow, I'll plan something for the early summer. I don't expect many ppl to come but maybe the GTA ATers can come to it.

I thought it was a pretty damn good show myself, but I knew what I was going into (playing behind screens and all were mentioned in previous reviews that I had seen)..

Anyway...

I, and two of my friends drove about 9 hours from Cincinnati, OH to check out the Gorillaz show and see Toronto... Just so happened it was at the same time as the meet..

I attempted to call eakers after the show with some limited success, but by the time we got to the resturant it was already closed... Strangly enough, when I got back to the hotel I saw a few folks coming off the elevator.. I'm horrible with names, but I think they were Zenmervolt, Eakers, Klee58, and Windogg. If not, oops .

Hopefully I didn't come off as an ass, but damn I was tired and I had just walked a number of blocks lookin for ya'all in that cold Canadian air. I'm really a nice guy, I swear.. Funnily enough while I was looking for everyone, I saw them walking into a parking garage, but I wasn't sure it was them and by the time it registered I was already down the street a couple blocks.. It's too bad there was no partying goin on later that night, I was all ready hehe..

Regardless, it was cool to meet a few people, and Toronto was a very nice city. I have, however, had my fill of world's highest towers and horrific tax . Oh, and I got to hear eakers say "eh" . Canadians rule, very friendly folks .

 

[absolutiza]

i don't understand it... how do you guys go out otgether on a night and not remember each others names?

 

[absolutiza]

<< that's a cool camera that took those pics. i think they are really good. >>



yea, i'm thinking of investig in a digital camera pretty soon. Should I buy the Canon S110 or a Nikon Coolpix? advice!

 

[Freejack2]

Ugh all these meets too far away, when is there gonna be one in New York or northern NJ?!?
Heck I'd even go to one in Mass, CT, RI, or VT.

 

[absolutiza]

<< Well, I vote that just about everyone in the first two pictures looks kinda funny, just the way you'd expect AT peeps to look. >>



i don't know about you but i look good.

 

[absolutiza]

<< you farheads who are dissing eakers need to GET A LIFE!! jesus, i bet all u gusy do is roam through babe threads all day long >>



wat is a farhead?

 

[absolutiza]

<< OMG! Eakers' new 'Hello Kitty' toy??? >>



haha.... man, what is that thing

 

[absolutiza]

<< Ditto.

It is interesting to note the price of fame though. Eakers, one of the most "visible" females on the board is unfortunately the victim of adolescent inequities; sometimes you benefit, sometimes you don't. If I were a pretty girl (and eakers is one) I would not court popularity here it can only lead to problems.

This is not meant to be didactic, just my feelings about it. I think eakers could have been Marylin fvcking Monroe and these guys would have found fault. >>




hey, how many hours did you spend with the THESARUS on that one my friend...

 

[absolutiza]

<< I'm sure this question has been asked before:

Did you guys call each other by their AT handle? >>



HAHA.. probably.

"yo, eakers, is that your coke or mine?"

"hey soulflare, did you know that we won the hockey gold in the olympics?"

hehe

 

[absolutiza]

<< Here is another beautifully illustrated point of view, completely applicable to this discussion. >>



hey!!! stop posting pics like that! what if my sister were retarded?
