Good fun had by all!


Metblog meetup Portland

Originally uploaded by dieselboi.

The Portland Metblogs crew hosted a great meet and great Tuesday evening at ACME in SE Portland. It was a grand time and if you didn’t make it, you missed out on some great conversation and superb food. There were huge crabcakes, a bowl of onion rings, pulled pork sandwiches, and some yummy salads. Oh, and fries. Did I mention the big bowl of onion rings? Along with Betsy, Jonpaul, Aaron, Banana Lee Fishbones, Rich, Jonashpdx and myself, we also has some wonderful guests: Jason and Anna from Delta Park Project, B!X, the guys from Unthirsty, Chelsea Cain from the O, Bridge City Comics, our city commissioner Randy Leonard, Rob from Portlandorusnow, a reader Nino, and some personal friends. Did I miss anyone?
Thanks everyone for coming, it was grand to meet you all. We’ll definately do this again.

    I would like to give some mad props here:

    - To Acme for being all-around awesome
    - To Unthirsty (thanks Jason!) for the mad Acme hookup
    - To Randy Leonard for showing up and being sociable
    - To Betsy for her stupendous invite skills
    - To all those not in our author list who showed up to claim some free food (:
    - To Mother Nature for a delightful evening (can you imagine rain on those beautiful onion rings?)

    So there’s my props, or shout-outs, or whatever it is you kids are calling it these days.

    …and to think I almost didn’t order those rings. Who knew the presentation would be so, um, memorable?

    I must have been at a different party. I only had french fries.

    And could you believe when [CENSORED] said [CENSORED] about [CENSORED]? I just about [CENSORED] my pants.

    I have to give a shout out to Acme for those tempeh BBQ sandwiches. Yummy!
    Oh! And a shout out to Betsy for thinking of me when she ordered the food! Thanks! :-)

    B!x: That was nothing compared to when [CENSORED] turned around and [CENSORED] the [CENSORED]-in front of everyone!
