The hotel staff were finishing clean up of the party room already. Hopefully nobody did leave anything behind because, at nine am, it’s too late now… Zzzzzzzzzz
It occurs to me I have absolutely no plans for today once breakfast is over. Maybe i’ll find a tourist brochure and see what there is to see around this town.
Have camera, will travel
It’s nice and sunny in Arizona today. This is a good thing, then I can wear sunglasses and nobody can see how red and baggy my eyes are
Yesterday was as close to the perfect day as humanly possible. Lots of great sights and a lot of horrifying sights.
So the party is over and TEB is now putting on clothes? Damn, now THAT’S a party!
Lovely greasy spoon breakfast at Denny’s with Bunny, Debbie, Jack, Dan, and the kiddos.

Sorry for the late post, CJ & Dan are great host. I had a blast at the Deadpan BBQ Saturday night. Dan cooks a mean burger and I can’t remember the last time I met so many intelligent, kind and funny people in a large group. And as an aside, TEB is plenty easy on the eyes. :)
We are a good looking bunch! :P
Glad you all had fun!
One of you were in my dream last night.
I bet it was me. Oh, wait.
“What If” of the Day:
What if poop was lighter than grass?
I’m nonplussed by this:
Some women carry around fake Coach purses (handbags?). I’m not aware of a man that can tell the difference between a fake or real Coach purse. But women seem to magically know. So why would a woman carry a fake Coach purse, since presumably she’s mostly interested in showing off more to men than women, and we really couldn’t care less. And if she’s showing off to women, they can pick out the fakes. I just can’t figure it out. I spend brain cycles on this stuff. Sad, I know.
What is a “Coach” purse? (kidding)
All of my purses are from Target or Walmart.
I don’t like the idea of carrying around a bag that costs more money than I’ll ever have to put in it.
We are catching up on Warehouse 13 and Eureka episodes this evening, and aren’t very impressed with either.
I seriously don’t know what a Coach purse is. I carry a small bag, but it’s pretty unfeminine. I don’t have a dog in your fight, #!
This is why I love the Deadpan-ites. A cut above the rest. But I’m biased and opinionated.
A bunch of DJ Bunny comments have been liberated! I will now give up control of Cj’s laptop.
And had my plans not self-destructed, I would have been leaving AZ about now. :(
Back in CA. Spent most of the afternoon napping, then reading The Rookie. I’m about to eat dinner and write a blog post about this weekend.
Glad you made it home safe, Amy!
Everyone who wasn’t here was absolutely missed and thought of! Hope to meet you all one day since.
… since clearly you are all made of awesome.
I don’t know why I didn’t finish my thought. Must still be tired.
Thank you, Bunny and Jack, for joining us for dinner tonight. I’m definitely glad for any extra time with Bunny before she leaves :)
What is this “reading” you speak of?
Speaking of reading, here’s what the President plans to say in his address to students tomorrow:
http://www.whitehouse.gov/MediaResources/PreparedSchoolRemarks/
Wow!
Thanks for passing that along Ed. I’d forgotten that was tomorrow,
It’s really quite inspiring. I also like the way it keeps underlining personal responsibility.
Had a nice quiet day exploring some of the local countryside with Jack. Jack was a wonderful host and it was nice to just relax and have some down time. Then dinner with the incomprable Cj and Dan. Cj is a great cook and hostess.
Thanks to Jack, Cj and Debbie for being my taxis over the weekend. Hugs of appreciation to you all.
It was great seeing everybody and putting faces to the comments and voices. Amy is one of the sweetest people you will meet. Lejon and his wife were wonderful, as was Rhettro. Evo and Shelia were nice and Debbie was do friendly and wonderful. It was great meeting Dan s. And his wife(girlfriend? I apologize) they were both wonderful too (do you see a theme here?).
I just know I forgot someone, if so, I’m sorry.
Obviously I think everybody was wonderful.
Now to finish packing, then I think it’s early to bed with me. Flying home tomorrow so you may not hear fom me.
Later!!!
Oh Kris!
I forgot to say how wonderful Kris Mayo is. Which she is!
Now let’s see who else I can remember I forgot befor I shut off the light…
Excellent photos of the meetup. I see why yall keep swooning now. :)
I had a great time with you today, Bunny! Thanks so much for everything you did to kickstart the Deadpanmmmm Gathering and make it happen.
Ed:
Bunny: Awwwww! :-) Thank you. Glad to hear that you had another fun day with the Phoenix crew.
I must must must say thanks to everyone who contributed in some way to the Deadpanmmmm Gathering. It was a wonderful time – and I feel like George Bailey at the end of It’s A Wonderful Life. I am truly blessed with beautiful, wonderful, caring, witty, great friends in this community.
I had a great time this weekend. It was just a reminder I’m really grateful to know and count all of you who hang around Deadpan as my friends.
… and so Mush, we reach the end of another broadcast day.
*que anthem*
Can we NOT do the Hendrix version? I went to sleep to that for two years and still haven’t gotten over it.
Although I will take that over the Roseanne one. Heh.
Jack: Awww! Thanks :-)
I just finished my blog post about this weekend. The trackback link should be showing up here soon. Here’s a link to the post, while we wait.
Morning Pan, oh no..is the TEB alias not coming back to the DP comments?
Spooky cornstarch:
http://tesladownunder.com/interesting_stuff.htm#Spooky Cornstarch
Pretty neat stuff, Van.
I am done.
Goodnight. mushians.
I just WOOTed for the first time today!
Ed – So are you the proud owner of a new “Power Sentry PowerSquid” ?
Morning Pan.
Was in bed by 9:30 last night. It was nice.
Just about to check out, then it’s off to the airport. A little early, I know, but maybe I’ll have breakkie there.
Van, TEB isn’t gone. I just haven’t changed it back on my touch. Maybe I’ll be TEB on my home computer and DJ Bunny on my touch that way you’ll always know what I’m on. Not that it’s really hard to tell, my spelling goes downhill by leaps and bounds when on te touch. Stupid tteeny tiny keyboard ;)
Holy crap the coffee here is horrid!
I think I need to find a better kiosk here at the airpot with drinkable coffee
Okay, now I’ll ask a question that has plagued my Deadpan brainpan. What’s the origin of this “goodnight Mush” deal?
I honestly don’t remember, #. I want to say it was started by The Smarty Hotties, but I may be mistaken.
i1, it’s from a bedtime story called Goodnight Moon
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3F97is-K4n8
Have a safe trip home, my beautiful Bunny! I adored spending time with you!
Cj, it was a blast! Definately have to do it again.
Oh phooey, I spilled coffee on my shirt. It wasn’t hot but now I’m going to have a brown stain on my breast. Can’t take me anywhere
Still sitting at the airport. Plane’s not late, I was just that early.
You’ll be happy to hear the coffee has deied and you can barely see the stain on my blue shirt
Still have another hour before I board. *yawn*
Holy crap!
They just called a (spelling it phonetically to avoid confusion) Rye-ah Delie-nes to the info desk. I almost went up (I’ve had many strang pronounciation of my name that I answer to) but then they said it was for a flight going to Memphis. That was still really weird.
I don’t really have much to say. Just killing time while waiting for my flight. I still seem to be quite tired and I don’t want to fall asleep until I’m actually on the plane
CP: All of My Life – Roger Whittiker
CP: Avalon – Roxy Music.
Maybe I should play some harder rocking music if I want to keep awake
CP: Acapulco Goldie – Dr. Hook.
That’s better ;)
Where is everbody?
Working with Hangovers after a long weekend.
I actually drank surprisingly little over the weekend and not at all yesterday. Net that it matters, it takes very little to make me loopy.
PS: we missed you Wolf. And everyone else who didn’t make it to Deadpan land :(
CP: The Accolade – Symphony X
More info you don’t really care about:
going to Arizona my luggage weighed 47.5 lbs. Coming home it is 25.5 lbs. I think I needed to buy more stuff while I was out here. Oh well, next time.
I’m watching/listening to the president’s speech to children.
CP: Cirith Ungol – LOTR soundtrack
Lovely fog this morning. . .
. . . in my head. AZ is clear and blue today, as usual.
I couldn’t help but notice your legs in the air on the usteeam feed TEB.
:)
I couldn’t help but notice your leg in the air on the ustream feed TEB.
:)
I think we’re going to be boarding soon. They just announced something about double checking passports
According to the phone ‘ usteeam’ is an actual word and not an abomination.
So shocking, it needed repeating :)
I’ve resorted to watching wipeout over lunch because I can’t find anything good (that I haven’t watched) on HULU, I can’t wait for the new seasons to start. Guess on the bright side and I can bypass our web filter. I like being the network admin! :)
And hey, we got a Greasy Jelly Bean prediction for this week! So – if anyone else would like to play, it’s there. (I know it’s not Monday). The prediction came in yesterday.
Aaaaaaand… The weekend is officially over.
Safe travels DeeJay ;-)
Happy meeting all the DP crew at the Sunday Meet-up.
I’m sorry we crapped out early. The wife is an early to bed sort of person… I – am not…
Good to hear Amy got home safe, too!
Now, I get to put my head down and get back to work, and feel out all those sore muscles I got hiking Mormon Trail on South Mountain yesterday…
Ah, that makes sense. Thanks much.
Interesting Reading.
Note to self – CONCENTRATE
Van are you making Orange Juice?
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2009/09/090904-global-warming-fixes-geoengineering.html
Liberal lies!! (ahem. I kid the conservatives.)
I just realized that today is the anniversary of my Big Mistake. Well OK, I’ve made a few – but this is the Big One.
I’ve finally admitted to myself that I have chin dandruff. I don’t want to shave it off… Is there something like head & shoulders for the beard? (Yes, I get that my beard is on my head, but that stuff burns – It’s not face friendly)
Lejon:
I used to have the same problem during the winter and my wife finely convinced me to spend a little money to take care of my skin and beard. Zirh’s “Clean†worked really well for me. It is expensive but the bottle last a long time.
I feel like I should be saying “But wait, there’s more!!!â€
reaper: If you did say that, I’d begin thinking you were Tom Teurff. Not that that means anything to anyone…
Selsun Blue (sp?) doesn’t seem to burn me [/plug]
I’m assuming that regular shampooing and soap and water aren’t working for you, Lejon? If flakes on your shirt are becoming a problem, then your only solution may be to go shirtless. It seems to work for Rambo:

I always think of Billy Mays and Ron Popeil
Big mistake Jack?
Today would be my wedding anniversary, Van.

:( Jack.
I never know what to say. I wish you well and I think I can say that we’re here for you, Jack.
Well hey, I appreciate the sentiments. Sorry to bring the mood down – - it’s ok. This date is a bit of trivia to me now – and I truly feel nothing about the end of that marriage (sorry if that sounds cold – - but I moved on many years ago). It’s history; I’ve had quite a few fun experiences since, and have learned my lesson about crazy women.
I only noticed that today was the 8th because I was reminded about tomorrow’s release of the “9″ movie.
Jack Mangan: Reasons to remember today is just another day –
The sun is shining.
It’s hot in Phoenix.
Hollywood is making movies.
and Presidents are verbally kissing babies…
Choosing the day’s ultimate destiny in your mind – this is where you come in…
There are days my job annoys me – couldn’t finish my last post before Jack got in… Now I just look dumb…
So, 9 you say… I’m thinking about going to see it. Looks quite cool.
I think that post was very wise, Lejon. Life is a Choose Your Own Adventure book. Sometimes you pick the wrong page.
Wise words, Jack. We are still here and with many more opportunities for great and fun things. While it is fine to look upon your past, it is never a good idea to obsess about it.
I think I might (finally) see “District 9″ tomorrow.
I mistakenly chose the path where other people then chose your path.
Damn you mobius.
Isn’t that the left path doesn’t know what the right hand is drawing?
Back home!
Will probably not be on the boards tomorrow. Will have to catch up on some work, plus I think I need a day to detox. Way too much fun and excitement.
I will put some pictures up later this week.
I picked the “non-military” path.
-I met many good friends
-I met my lovely wife
-I earn little.
Had I chosen the “military” path.
-I wouldn’t have met my current friends set
-I wouldn’t have met my lovely wife
-I would probably be a nuclear engineer earning top dollar.
You’d be surprised how easy it is to reflect on both paths and ponder over which is better…
Welcome Home Bunny!
Must go give my kitty some more love.
Later Panites!
I wish I had learned my lesson about CW, I still find them alluring but then I’ve never lived with one.
Glad to see you are home safely, Bunny! :)
There’s a lot to be said for crazy women.
Yes there is Essbee.
Joey Ramone used to say that he liked picking up girls from mental institutions because they were the most fun.
There’s crazy women, and then there’s crazy women. I’m just sayin’.
Crazy in the head…
Crazy in the bed…
I never claimed it was rational.
Precisely.
Fine print: Previous 7 comments n/a for current girlfriends, wives, partners, or female Deadpanites.
That’s some fine lookin’ print ya got there.
There’s crazy, crazy good, and then fucking bat-shit crazy psycho. One of those you *definitely* want to avoid at all costs.
CP: Miss America — Styx
CD: Filling out medical forms
Put that off too long too long and watched Iron Man instead.
CP: Harry Potter, Book 4 audiobook (again)
CD: Packing for another Evil Dallas trip.
Sleep tight, y’all! I might try to swing by during my trip if I can. If not, have a wonderful rest-of-your-weeks!
CW: Deal or No Deal (ugh! want to watch The Office with Dan. Hope he has time soon.)
CD: Playing WoW
CE: Nothing, but in about 5 minutes I’ll be eating cheesecake
Have a good trip, EssBee!
Sheesh, I missed my lunchtime DP update.
Yes, I’m soon to take possession of a pair of power squids. That’s almost as good as getting some more flash lights.
Does anyone else struggle to avoid buying flashlights when they come across them in a store? Or is that manic behavior unique to me? Though, I do generally resist the urge.
Now, wait a minute, I thought life was supposed to be about doing English on a pool table or something.
And what kind of a name is “English” for a woman, anyway?
And now for the hard snap…
Nice find on the “Goodnight Moon” video, CJ.
RE: CW
I dated a red head once.
I guess since I’m alive to admit that, I can say it had it’s positive points.
I’m just glad she didn’t have access to power squids.
Lejon – I don’t know if this will help, but it is pretty majickal.

Be cautious with the tentacles, Ed.
I see that “CW” now has 2 meanings around here.
Everyone on the earth is a little bit nutty, in their own special way. Just avoid the CWs and CMs that take it too far.
I gather neither of the “CW”s here mean Supernatural, 90210, or Vampire Diaries?
Well I’ve heard of the first two (in fact enjoy watching S) NS, but not that last one.
So welcome back website..woot!
Currently Watching a Crazy Woman Cackle Wildly at the CW.
CWCWCW
… and yes, welcome back website.
That must have been a system wide attack of some kind.
I’m not really here. I just figured, since the board is up again, I’d give the August numbers
Total August ’09 nipples = 2076. This is down 2% over the same period last year.
Now back to my nap…
So, did nefarious types hack the site? I just got a blank page when checking this morning.
Jack, you can ignore the e-mail I sent you. I realized I had LJ’s contact info so I just e-mailed him directly.
I don’t know, Ed. I got the same thing most of the morning.
Now, I’ve got work to do.
I think this place is like a drug. I said I wouldn’t be on line today, yet here I am.
It seemed to be a general FPM issue.
Too late, Bunny.
So we apparently had FPM-wide site downage this morning – but no official word from the folks behind the scenes as to what happened.
What, being a drug?
I suspect it was NS trying to win the GJB.
No not really.
:) in case that last comment was taken seriously .
Had to sneak out first thing this morning. Hubby used all the printer paper while I was gone and forgot I’d need some for work so didn’t get any.
Silly hubby :)
Did that smiley have a steely glint in it’s eye TEB?
So I bought a bag of Coffee Crisps while I was at the store ;)
No, Van. I loves my hubby.
Ask the DP group. Every evening at around the same time it was, “oh, I’ve gotta call my hubby” ;)
I know TEB, just pulling your leg.
Hopefully it doesn’t have bells on.
