It's great that you guys can hook up and just hang out .

I have met some guys from Toronto on the Bluray forum and what started out as 3 of us has grown to 5 where we take turns hosting at our house's listening to each other's 2 channel and home theater set up's.

Of course my Axiom set up sounds the best .:-)

Well, to the best of my knowledge, no one "hooked up"!

Not that there is nothing wrong with that .

Very good; but you left before Hafner's walk-off grand slam??

Ray made us leave.

But how many of you did it take to carry Jack out? Certainly he wouldn't have left voluntarily until the last out!

No, in the spirit of camaraderie I acquiesced and went meekly . I'm so ashamed.

Looks like lots of fun. Beautiful photo, Mark. (You must have a really big sensor chip.)

Had I known, I could have sailed down to Cleveland except it would have taken me several weeks. . .

Cheers,
Alan

Next time we will give you at least several weeks notice. You would have been a welcome addition to the gathering.

Wow - thanks for pointing that out John! Ya know, 'cause I didn't get nearly enough abuse during the the rest of the GTG for suggesting we leave early.



Just so we have the full story on the early exit. It was getting late and the Indians had been playing a level of baseball to that point that might not have led to a win over a little league team. Then Bautista (Blue Jays) hits a home run to make it 4-0. Finally, and most important, the beer in the stadium was selling for $8.00 a bottle (and the vendors weren't even wearing masks) and it was getting late enough that, with travel time, the trip to Fat Head's for beer and an open kitchen was questionable. I might also add that a simple question of "Do you want to try and beat the traffic?" resulted in NO negative response.

I rest my case. Well, OK, I would actually HAVE a case if not for Hafner's heroics, so I'm fallin' back on the whole "Let's get some reasonably priced beer" thing.
