We've gotten used to being in Dallas on the first weekend in May hanging with the YABSers at CAPE. So to Linda, Ray, Don, Alice, Kit, Bert, Matt, Larry, Misty, Tom, Chris, Troy, Richard, Chris, Forrest, Kris, John, Scott (especially Scott), and Gail, we miss you guys.

Let's use this thread to make fun of Ray, make up silly haiku, and generally behave as if we have the run of a Whole Foods (previously a World Market), a comic shop, and a bar named after a fish.

I think there have been more Haley's Comet sightings than times Gail's husband has ever smiled.



He doesn't come here, does he?

I was thinking about art night, too, which was right about now last year. And here was bert on that occasion.

And then there was this classic from CAPE 3! Or on the way home, actually.

At CAPE there was a guy named Ray
Who went out with the group to play.
He took off his hat
A bird on him shat
Best thing that happened all day.

I know how you feel Shel, I missed ECC this year, so I'll share a drink with you and Sally, and maybe some sad music. :frown:

Is Ray short? I don't remember Scott being that tall, but he towers over Ray like a basketball star.

Scott's really tall. Or so it seems to me. But then everybody is taller than I am...

awww. . I miss you guys so much too!


and to make it worse, I can't even go up to Dallas tomorrow to see Richard, Chris, and all the great Zeus guys (too close to our Vegas trip. . this weekend is spent packing).

but Richard went above and beyond, and did a very cool thing for me -- so it's like I'm there in spirit :)

I miss you guys, too.

(And darn it, I wanted a chance to ride the vibrating saddle.)

:wink:

So Ray---do you think your local birds will poop on you this year, to try to make up for you missing the Dallas ones? :biggrin:

Yay---I'm not the only perennially late person on here!!! *Hugs Gail*

yes, but Gail's only occasionally late.

you're occasionally on time :tongue:


(after you were on time for last year's Dragon*con lunch (for the first time in 6 years!), I fully expect you to be late this year!).


huggies!

Ray isn't short, he's just vertically challenged.

Well, he's also follicle-y challenged. :rolleyes:

-arriving back after ten days in Edmond OK handling affairs, wrangling family, fixing everyone's computers & being Ultimate Diplomat, thanks to a death in the family-

I'd sure rather be exhausted by CAPE than exhausted by this last week or so.

Sigh!

CAPE is Good.

Sure miss you all.

Follow That Cab!

Hope everything went as well as it could, and I'll say again you're in our prayers. Great big hugs, hon.

I am sad we didn't get to have the Yabs get together, dangit. I had a great time in Canada though! But Ray IS girly.

I bought a Memories book in honor of Ray.

***signs it***

To my favorite tween girl, Ray. Stay classy.

Your buddy from a distance,
