Yup, I got Jim and will see you folks @ 7pm.

 

Just so you know, I gave up my Trailblazer game...to buy you some bitches

 

ouh! ouh! can i get mine in blond, phu-leeze!?!

 

 

 

No, that's extra. But I'm putting the finishing touches on my snaffle-proof bucket with the Gamma seal lid that John go was talkin about. I'll bring it.

BTW Kev, I'm begging off on that request, but maybe Ivan can grab Jims rack as he seems hot to go.

Thanks…..are you really bringing signs? Beer is in my future……..

[rmncwrtr]

Just little paper jobbers I can fold over, Kevbone. It's the mom in me, what can I say? Sure beats people having to go up to each table and ask if it's cc.com if they don't recognize people.

[pink_chalk]

Sadly, I am going to miss out this evening. Darn!* Stupid company Christmas party starts at 6pm... I will be drunk by 7.

 

Kevbone: Please give Jim a little squeeze and a kiss on the cheek for me

[blurpy]

Just wanted to say I had a fantastic time meeting everyone at the pub club. had to leave a bit early, to get the munsters to bed, but enjoyed every minute.

 

now i'm stressed that i gave jim my number, and he's going to call to go climb at beacon, and i'll be a disappointment....

 

ah well.....

[Dave_Schuldt]

Wow look at all these posts, you guys are all over this.

[ivan]

thursday morning - 7 am - soooo tiiiiiiredddd....

Glad to me you as well. Super fun night. Dont worry about Jim.....he wont remember getting your number.....

[billcoe]

As I was leaving, he was going to give me Pat's number, and he pulled out a sheet from his pocket and it had about everybody's phone number on it.

 

Blurpy: the only way to really disappoint Jim is to do something mean, rude or ignorant. This is just climbing dude, you're suppose to have fun, not get stressed.

 

Good meeting you all: wanted to do a toast to Jim Anglin but it was so damn loud.....maybe if Joseph had been there it would have happened.

 

Bill

[kevbone]

I have Pats number if you need it.

[rmncwrtr]

It was great to put faces to avatars last night. Thanks for showing up! It was great meeting you all and also the non-cc.comers who dropped by, too.

 

A big thank you to Sarah, whose quiet evening was quickly overrun by cc.comers, when she offered to share her table. (The expression on her face when I pushed the tables together was priceless!) And then it turns out she's a climber, too!

 

Here are some pics from the evening!

Oh no…..the dreaded camera!

[denalidave]

I'm envious, but you guys did'nt get the fun of a hanging with a sick 2 and 4 year old.

[kevbone]

Its so funny how Jim is so part of CC.com functions……yet he is not a part of cc.com or anything computerized for that matter.

[JosephH]

We're still trying to get his space heater on the Internet, so there is hope.

[kevbone]

Or maybe get his tin foil hat back into “space”?

[billcoe]

Is it me, or are the PDX climbers (excluding me) just better looking than the Seattle climbers?

 

Link to elderly climbers

 

I may be with the wrong group.

 

Maybe it's the camera angles on the Seattle folks, cause it looks like it caught me wrong too.

That is because you kept turning away right before Melissa took the picture.....that was funny BTW.

 

 

Me and Bill sharing a moment.....ah.....

[jclements]

I don't recognize anyone in those pictures. Was this another function? I went to the Lucky Lab in PDX last night.

 

 

Whoever it was I met last night, it was good doing so. And you guys look like an okay bunch too, hope to see ya around.

 

Cheers!

No, you were there and it was great ! After your 8th or 9th pint, that crowd of Beacon lowlifes wuz pimpin you out as a male prostitute for $10 a pop in the back room.

 

I think Jim could afford the $540 bill to fix his car when they were done: so congrats on that!

 

Ahhh, except you looked like a glazed donut at the end of the evening and no one wanted to touch or sit near ya, but I mean other than that.

 

Nice meeting you dude!

I'm not really that stressed. Maybe I can tag along with you guys at Beacon or somewhere else next spring or summer.
