miriya 21 Posted August 14, 2009 aw, boo. was looking forward to meeting you. Same here. Even though my department is closing in less than two months and I will be out of a job, I still can not miss a day of paid work right now. I have used all of my sick days and paid vacation time too. I was looking forward to this and it is SO CLOSE to me it is a bit insane but with the schedule with my son and all that I can not do any day swaps. Sooooo Take lots of pictures and post them up here. I am sure you will have a great time. I will be stuck in Santa Cruz choking on forest fire smoke and trying to close my department down.

Raider 3 0 Posted August 21, 2009 Group Pictures Are UP!! Before I forgot, here's the pictures of the group gathered out in front of Juban Yakuniku in San Francisco's JapanTown this past Saturday. Thanks goes to Rob Miles for taking the picture so I could be in it (Yeah, I realized I wasn't smiling. I guess I was really tired.), and thanks for my camera not crapping out. I'll mirror this on my own photo site and my Flickr page as well. (Will update with links when they're posted there.) Until the next meet-up....

Agent ONE 64 Posted August 24, 2009 Raider, the look on your face is priceless. I know you weren't board or anything, but you look like me when my mom drags me to church. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UN Spacy 307 Posted August 24, 2009 How about another meet in early October? San Jose Japantown? But this time we don't have to worry about large crowds or parking meters. We can also bring more items to share with each other. What do you guys think? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sidearmsalpha 0 Posted August 28, 2009 Nice to see what alot of you guys look like. Man, Agent ONE, nice dome! We'll have to compare shapes when you see mine. I almost thought you were that Bay Area radio personality, No Name. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Agent-GHQ 8 Posted August 29, 2009 I wonder why it took so long to organized a Northern Cali Macross World Con. I mean, I used to live up there and would have loved to joined my fellow MWers. And though I feel that having one in SF seems like a cluster fuk, I wouldn't mind checking in one of those oriental massage parlors afterwards. Hmmm..... I recognized a familar face from the group pic. You know who you are damn it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
