By all accounts, last night's blogger meetup at Governor Stumpy's was a smashing success.
It's so cool to see people that you know through the blogworld in person in the real world. I was amazed and humbled at the combined talent that was gathered around the five or six tables that we commandeered.
I regret that I couldn't stay longer and talk to more people. I particularly missed having longer conversations with Heather, The D, Faith, Eolai and lots of others.
But I did have a good time getting to know KC Sponge and meeting Dan in the flesh. Also had a great discussion with Lee Ingalls, proprietor of the fabulous The New Low Down and the funny/quirky Oddment of Sandwiches. Seriously, if you haven't checked out his stuff, do. You won't be disappointed.
And I can't forget to mention Xavier Onassis. I made good on my promise to deliver a fabulous prize to him for finding an error in this post. Although, technically it was a grammar error, not a spelling one (that's my story and I'm sticking to it). Anyway, the photo is of the crazy awesome shirt I gave him as a prize.
Really looking forward to next time. I hope to see some of the newer bloggers there. I'm looking at you Chimpo and muzak.

Was great seeing you. Maybe next time we'll get to talk a bit more.
ReplyDeleteAwww, now why you done did dat?? Now I have to be held accountable for my meaningless blather? We'll see what I can do next time.
ReplyDeletemuzak was my ride. I place all the blame on him.
ReplyDeleteThe next one should be before the Ku vs. K-state football game so I can tell you how and why KU is going to whip K-state.
ReplyDeleteNext time I might be on time (stupid work responsibilities).
The D,
ReplyDeleteThe next one should be after the K-State vs. KU football game, so you can tell me why KU will "win next year."

ReplyDeleteYep - all too brief an appearance for my own liking with so many groovy people I would've liked to have a good chat with.
ReplyDeleteBut clearly it was such a success that there'll be plenty more.
Very delighted to have you be the first blogger I met - thanks for keeping me informed and up to date!! Can't wait til the next one.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds fun. I think I am a bit too far away.

Tony,
You da man!
Great to finally meet you the other night. We'll have to do it again soon.
ReplyDeleteA good time was had by Lee. Looking forward to the next time. Oh, and thanks for the kind words about Sandwiches. (btw, your Simpson's avatar doesn't do you justice.)
ReplyDeleteI wish I could have been there!
