Hi,
On Sunday, August 9th at seven o'clock a restaurant in Columbia, MD, there will be a Chondro Gathering for Jurgen. He doesn't know about it so just keep it quiet and show up.
All the excellent food is on me but the drinks are on you (no way I am again paying $400+ so you can drink like last time after MARS), well, maybe I will cover the the first round. Anyway, I expect to see most of the MD folks and some local states' folks too.
Every chondrohead from anywhere is welcome!
I know what you are thinking, "Sounds great, but how can I be sure I won't be seated next to The Romangutan?" That's a damn fine question, Pookie. YR will be seated (with Elijah) next to the girl's bathroom door and out of yelling distance form the rest of us. His bride, Quily, will be seated next to me, of course. (She has soft, soft hair and JB likey that.)
I think that covers it. BE THERE. It'll be free and fun. I will endeavor to get Trooper there (with bits of meat) and our friend Jim Murphy who always has the best stories of animals and husbandry. And as always, Robin will be there in a flowery dress.
Thanks.
