Chicago DUers rule! Just check out these pics if you had any doubts
About 20 or so of us hooked up for a Sunday afternoon of fun and merriment at an undisclosed downtown location. We talked. We laughed. (No crying.) We drank, liberally of course. ;-)

I must admit I did get a bit distracted and didn't take as many pictures as I should have — although some didn't want their photos taken and others didn't want them displayed. So, if I didn't get your picture this time, I'll be sure to catch you next time.

So, here goes:



wyndycty & SusanG




XNASA <-- Make sure you read his shirt. Did you know his new band was debuting next week?




rschod and his lovely wife, who promised to return when the weather warms up (July, I'm guessing)




forradalom & SusanG, share a smile although they just don't seem as close as they used to be ;-)




mkuhl (aka batboy) & mopinko share a tender moment — either that or she's threatening to pound his face in :shrug:




Blue-Jay & mopinko I think he's trying to score a lapdance with her after he struck out with greatauntoftriplets. Here's a clue, Blue-Jay: This is Chicago NOT Ohio. A buck between your teeth just won't cut it here. ;-)




mkuhl & SusanG Don't they make just the cutest couple. :P Just to let you know, she was looking at him like this most of the night, especially after he decided to ask the guy who hit on her earlier if he knew HIM from somewhere and something about underwear, I think.

2. I asked permission first
Besides, how else are we all going to recognize each-other in GITMO?

15. Shaved?!?!? Nobody Is Touchin' My Moustache
And, i mean NOBODY! Guess i'll just refuse to go to Gitmo if i have to lose the 'stache. Not happening. How would XNASA recognize me without it?

5. I *knew* I should've used a fiver!
I forgot to get out my Springfield/Chicago currency-matrix. The five dollar beers should have tipped me off.

Let's do it again soon, Chicago! It was nice to be reminded of why I miss my old stomping grounds so much.

7. Well, it would be easier to get one
of you here than all of us out there. Why don't you pick one of the many summertime musical festivals or Taste of Chicago to make your pilgrimage?

We would love to have you back! <-- Well, I can't speak for all of the Chicago DUers, but I think most of them would agree. ;-)

11. We'll see what the travel budget has in store for me this year.
I'm already headed to Philly and DC in April. I might be looking to escape the Texas heat later in the summer. :-)

8. I have two more special ones
I'll add later, that is if anyone expresses their appreciation for the Chi-town contingent.

9. And, finally, we have


A rare picture of ProfessorGAC, who swears he doesn't show up on film. Too bad for him that I used a digital camera.




The legend, the myth that is antiwarwarrior. My, doesn't he look pensive. Any guesses as to what he is thinking about?

16. The Legend that is 'antiwarwarrior'.
Kuhlhund was a mighty ruler, and he made Gorghild his queen. In happiness they dwelt together, and they had a son who was named 'antiwarwarrior'.

At antiwarwarrior's birth, Skuld, the Norse god of the Future came and foretold that he would achieve great renown, as indeed he did, for while, he was yet a youth he became a far-famed warrior, strong-armed and fierce, in battle prowness surpassing even his sire.

And so it begins.

:wow:

No wonder he is so pensive: a lad of noble birth facing the weight of an immense destiny.
