    Pants is only a present tense verb here. I once panted, but it's all cool now.

    I think I'm cursed. I never can seem to make it to the Albuquerque games. This year on the 18th and 19th I will be in Louisiana, Mississippi, and then Louisiana again on my way to Florida. Oh well, there's always next year.
    I changed my signature. The old one was too ridiculous.

    I'll be there on Saturday, throwing in the MWC. My wife will be throwing on Sunday with the women's open class. It'll be our first time in Abq. We hear it is a blast!

    Alburquerque is a very fun town. I will be there one day, not certain yet which one.

    Just back from day one.
    Had a great morning! Sheep herding, Highland Games, SCA whacking away, the audio cat fight of bands tuning up , met up with Rev. Rob and his lovely wife - she took our picture for the X Marks proof , got a required t-shirt, drooled over some Buzz Kidder sporrans and listened to the morning entertainment performance of the Mac-Tire of Skye Pipes and Drums - awesome. Howdy-ed another face I knew on the way in, but didn't stop to ID as he was busy directing traffic.

    Well Chuck, that was me directing traffic. Sorry that I did not find you later on, but I did find Rob, and we also achieved the requisite photo.
    See you another time!
    Great Photos. Thank You.

    Thanks Gordon! My face memory is great but I have a hell of a time putting names to faces. I have tried about all the tricks I know and that part of my memory has always been Teflon coated. Get's my goat all the time.
