Katie,
Finally figured out the NAM profile, but we will need to add cool graphics.
See you later today. We will bring H'or Dourves.
Tuna Moose (Mouse) spread and second one as well.

I still don't know what I'm going to bring, but I'm going to stop by the supermarket soon and try to figure it out. It will probably be a dessert of some kind, and a bottle or two of Mountain Dew for good measure.

I don't have any Dew, so that's a good idea....
Think chocolate for that dessert...

I'm glad everyone had a good time.. Those who feeped out, ya missed a good party!
I'm still wondering what happened to Mark and his chili. We didn't need the food (anyone want some cheesecake?), but I'm concerned he didn't show up.
Mark? you ok?

I am now. Had a bit of a bug, kinda flu like. Not real real bad but even though I was feeling somewhat better by party time I didn't want to share the bug. Sorry I missed it! I was really looking forward to it!

More Pictures

A couple of my photos are available here and here:


I think that the Hi Res (6 MPx) versions are needed for the newsletter -- fetch this and/or this.

FYI Technical data: Canon 40D with 10-22mm Canon EFS lens. Shot available light (no flash at) ISO 3200. Minimal processing of RAW image with Adobe Lightshop.
