420 Posted October 12, 2001 Share Posted October 12, 2001 South Bay :cool: I lived LA for 17yrs, and you guys are making me homesick. So nice to hear the names of all those places in Southern Cal. If I had known that so many CM players were lurking around, I wouldn't have moved away. (I moved 3yrs ago, but hey, who's counting ).

Gyrene Posted October 12, 2001 Share Posted October 12, 2001 Well, that sucks Darwin, especially after you made all this effort to help this get together going... I guess Navare is the sole point of contact now. Navare, you have the Conn. Gyrene [ 10-12-2001: Message edited by: Gyrene ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

General Panic Posted October 13, 2001 Author Share Posted October 13, 2001 I'm sorry, friends, but family obligations beckon me. I will not be present for the festivities. Can someone else bring a camera if possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyrene Posted October 13, 2001 Share Posted October 13, 2001 LOL, we're falling like flies! Well there's always next time. Out of curiousity, who's coming for sure? Hate to make the drive and be the only one there. Gyrene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foobar Posted October 13, 2001 Share Posted October 13, 2001 Stay Frosty Gyrene... The fewer people that show up, the shorter the line to get on the laptop. I will bring a disposable camera for the heck of it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foobar Posted October 14, 2001 Share Posted October 14, 2001 Thanks to all who came out, that was really alot of fun! (I just wished I could have stayed out longer) We have to do this again very soon, for no better reason than I stiffed you guys on the bar tab! First round is on me, next time any of you want to meet up! Did anyone else show up after I left? Attendees, (iirc) -Feldgrau (as bald as MadMatt, but much more agreeable) -MarkIV (His usual MarkIV self. On leave from angry wife) -Thumpre (His wife made him come, he had nowhere else to go) -Navarre (Got stiffed for a Newcastle Ale. Lives way too close to me to risk an insult) -Gyrene (Brazilian with a New York accent) -Captain Foobar (got free drink) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THumpre Posted October 14, 2001 Share Posted October 14, 2001 To all those who made it last night, Feldgrau, Navarre, Mk IV, Capt. Foobar, and Gyrene, thank you for a very enjoyable evening. It was very refreshing to be able to talk about "The Obsession" without having people shake their heads and smile nervously. Perhaps we should look into that Argentine B-B-Q for the next meeting....

Gyrene Posted October 14, 2001 Share Posted October 14, 2001 Yes, thanks to you guys for showing up...Made my drive worth it. (Typed in New York/Canadian/Alabama/God-knows-where accent ) Thanks to Feldgrau for the mod sneak-peek, the new (Classified) looks awesome and it's already installed in my CM. See you all next time Gyrene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark IV Posted October 15, 2001 Share Posted October 15, 2001 Hey Foobs, where's the picture? The scariest thing about this meeting was that it confirmed one of my worst suspicions... that many of you here actually exist! Perhaps one of the keys to (continued) civil discourse on the ol' BBS would be more of these gatherings. Some of these mooks had faces, and were quite pleasant and even interesting to drink and/or speak with. It may interest some of you to know that Captain Foobar is only 4 cm tall, and that THumpre has two heads, for example. Thanks to feldgrau for the surprise treat, and I promise to start trying mods... as soon as this ^%$#& house is painted. I suspect we all owe Navarre a drink. The BBQ/asado works for me.

Navare Posted October 15, 2001 Share Posted October 15, 2001 It was nice to see that some of you actually exist and are not figments of my imagination, like my wife says yu all are. The best part of the evening had to be when the people at the next table over started giving us sideways glances as we talked about 8" artillery and destroying houses with it. Unfortunatly, it turns out I will not be able to be avalilable on Oct 27 as I planned to be so someone else will have to carry the torch for that one. I will hold you all up to buying me drinks at the next one I can make though. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darwin Posted October 15, 2001 Share Posted October 15, 2001 Argh, sounds like you all had fun. Wish I could have gone... So I have good news and bad news. Good news is that I hooked up with a girl I let slip away last year, bad news is there is work available to me the weekend of the 27th up near her locale and if I can land it... I'm there I didn't bring a camera with me this time but she's the same girl I fell forhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foobar Posted October 17, 2001 Share Posted October 17, 2001 Personally, I think Shakespeare's is a great idea at any time! It is 5 minutes from my house! I dont care how far you guys have to drive, we're thinking of ME here... ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col Deadmarsh Posted October 17, 2001 Share Posted October 17, 2001 San Diego's a little far for me to drive to even though this Shakespeare place sounds cool. Can we organize something closer to Arcadia/San Gabriel Valley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
