    Here's the picture of the Forum Crew at the Beer Garden on Lima Friday 12-4pm.

    Unfortunately, I didn't introduce myself to everyone, so I don't have all the names. Please fill in the missing names if you know them.

    Thanks

    What's really funny to me is that Einnar and I had agreed to meet there at the forum shift but failed to, and later didn't know what happened, and there he is almost-right next to me in the picture! I suppose we were working opposite ends of the bar, but I also suppose I should have introduced myself to more folks. Oops. Einnar, my apologies! Next time we're at the same rally I'll buy you a beer or three!

    I also don't recall being aware that several other folks were the faces behind familiar names from the forum. We all kinda straggled in at different times so that may have hampered the intros a bit too.

    I move that for future Forum Frenzies, everybody meet ahead of time and have a drink together before taking over the other side of the bar.

    That is funny, as I was looking for you too! A beer or 3 sounds good, but you better let me buy some too!

    How many hours ahead of time do we need to get in the proper mood?

    - Some say the glass is half empty, some say the glass is half full, I say, are you going to drink that? - Lisa Clayman

    Sorry, but no drinking before serving... the beer team runs a very sober serving ship, but still very fun. Most states also have laws that the bartender must be sober.

    Hey, just an off-the-cuff suggestion. The point was to suggest getting intros out of the way before we report for duty.

    Ok, so we'll go hog wild with water before we serve... than move on to something else afterwards.
