Just wanted to start a thread quickly to announce that a bunch of us met up in the Boston Area yesterday. The attendees were: Paul A-I'm-sorry-I-can't-spell-your-name, Scott, Rebecca and her Boyfriend, Larry, Mommy and Daddy (aka Kitty and Pool Boy) and myself.

We had lunch at Bertucci's and a great time that included plenty of good conversation, much of it relevant to skeptical matters.

As soon as my parents download the pictures from their camera I'll post them here.

Any of the other attendees want to comment or post some pics?

Best,
Kitten

P.S. We should have another one of these meetings-- maybe at our house if our tile people ever show up to finish the floor, so we can move all the furniture out of our living room!

Oooh, what a great idea! If I promise to be well-behaved, could I be permitted to come upstairs from the basement, to put to rest those vicious and completely unfounded rumors that I am being held involuntarily?
Maybe in September, or early October? (Hmmm. Labor Day weekend is in early September...)
 
How is it that an unpublicised get together in Boston goes off smoother than a get together in LA that has three announcement posts?

What is the secret- I tell you, the herding cats thing never made more sense to me....


I'm jealous.

BTW, I expect I'll be out that way in early September.
 
I am inept... someone want to host these for me? I might send them to Scott (if you don't mind, Scott) otherwise.

Okay, okay... one more try:

maybe we should explain whom is whom

left to right....first picture

Paul (recent sex change...looks pretty good huh?), Larry (short for Lawrence, he's into the long hair), Kitten (the new short haircut isn't working too well), Scott (facial hair working out well, nice look) and Kitty (I've been working out).

Rebecca gets us all to join her cult!!! It's fun!!!!

the biggest business where Larry lives

do you think they would remove John Edward and Sylvia?
 
Loon, by the way, you are cordially invited to our skeptics get-together in September if you're around and if we get around to having it...

Or, if you're in the area, I bet mom might cook you dinner (as long as you don't mind a messy house-- we have too much stuff) or we can grab dinner at EBAs up here at school... I'm sure you miss greasy college pizza.

Nova Land

LOON

You are totally invited
in fact today I was in the Coop and looking at all the vegan offerings to see what I want to get when you come over Nova!

we may have tile people showing up....ha!
 
Nice pics - sounds like you all had fun!

Paul - that is one voluminous pair of shorts!
 
Thanks for posting the pics, Kitten. All others who wish to join my cult, er, I mean, cabal of goggled superheroes, PM me!
 
Paul - that is one voluminous pair of shorts! [/B][/QUOTE]

Some men need them that big...if you know what I mean;)

really shorts envy, it's sad
 
Most of my shorts are voluminous. This is to prevent them from turning into the shorts equivalent of a straightjacket when I sit or lean over.

Actually, they are fairly stylish now, aren't they? I knew that eventually I'd come into style. Too bad they'll be out in a year or two.

Dear, you shouldn't slouch (hey, who am I to talk), stand up straight and be proud :)

And for the record, Pool Boy is looking way too fit and healthy. I hope I'll look half as good at that age ...

Scott, you look great. I almost didn't recognise you since TAM2. You look so lean ;)

And Paul, well, I recognised you from miles away (and with those pants, who wouldn't :D)
 
PoolBoy was taking the picture!!!! (hush, that's Larry, and yes, he is sure in shape- and what a shape!)

that's right, stand up straight! Tall girls tend to slouch..I think it starts when they suddenly grow a foot higher than all the guys in one year. The guy eventually catch up!

Oops, my bad :o
I must admit my attention was focussed more on the skepchicks and less on Pool Boy during TAM2, so I don't quite remember what he looked like :D

She's not THAT tall, is she? Scott is like half a foot taller (although less if kitten would stand up straight :p)
 
Hey! I am slouching because behind my back I am holding a Wal-mart bag full of goggles... decided that wouldn't look so good in the picture. As for height, I'm 5'8" or so-- no giant, but certainly not on the short side.

And what? No comment on the extradordinary beauty of Mommy, Rebecca, and myself???? Only comments on "slouching"???

*Sits up straight, attempts to look taller and more intimidating*
