If you were not so stuck up you would have said something since I didn't see you... goof :) The only people who I know by sight is Larry and Mark Cermak.... I said hi to them.

chris, I missed you at PWF. (didn't I mention T-shirts a few weeks back, and everyone poo-pooed them.... Ken Snow said they would be "gay-ish"... I was even going to donate them from my screenprint shop). I did talk with Mikey, Meat, Rob Lyon, BobV, Lisa, Jimmy Nardela, the Cermacks, Steve Hoodlebrink, (who was with BobV)and a bunch I can't remember, but I will. I'm trying to remember who I talked to from Millers about our Genesis' problems?? And Lee Cory....I missed chattin' with you.

Bob V.....how'd the Tequilla go last night?? And how many got the Vac Tattoos??

Thanks again to the Pembertons and their people and vendors for a great show. Some nice Votexes there.

There is a MB rendevoux the night before the fest in the hotel, how in the hell did you guys miss that? It's what you do in Pitts the night before, cause ain't no one driving in at 5am....Winterfest starts EARLY!

Nametags?
And how in the hell do you miss Mikeys 6'7 head in the crowd...just look by the wine table.

RW, they wanted shirts by THIS fest, not next year, crack the whip next time.

It would have been nice if I could have met you guys the night before so I would know who people were. I drove there in the morning "took me 3 hours" and got there 5 minutes before it started.

Next time I will try to get there the night before so I can get a better seat. I had some people sitting behind me that wouldn't stop talking and were taking calls the whole time, and I had a hard time hearing anything they were saying on stage. You would think carpet cleaners would be a little more polite... :) Now I know what Greenie means when he talks about carpet cleaners...lol

We had a great time again this year. The drive in this year was little longer due to a blizzard here in northeast Ohio, took about 6 hours for what is usually a 3 - 3.5 hour trek.

After WinterFest a few of us went into downtown Pittsburgh to a very eclectic neighborhood full of Steelers fans reveling in the pre Super Bowl euphoria. We spent a couple hours laughing and having fun at a Tattoo shop while Lisa got her vac tat and JB got his worked on. Then off to dinner at a small Italian restaurant.
I got a few looks and comments about my Browns hat ;)

It was another GREAT WinterFest, cant wait for next year. It was wonderful to see so many old friends and to make some new ones. Thanks again to everyone who works so hard to make it happen.

Wow, I guess somebody did see me. I am the one in the green shirt talking with Lee Pemberton about the "Restorator" newsletter. I saw somebody take a picture...:) My wife is in the light green sweatshirt next to me.

Great pics!

I said hello to more people then said hello to me... NOBODY said hello to me. I talked with Larry and Mark, Andrechelle. I told Mark that I'd like to meet you... However you are starting to sound like an unfriendly bunch...

Greenie....I posted about the shirts early in January. I could have run them off Friday night, and passed them out Saturday morn. Just the simple red and blue "mikeysboard" on the front.....vac on the back.
