Finnigan's Wake

REBar Camp

Ad hoc can be a good thing. It was a pleasure to see so many of the people living in my computer in the same room enjoying the lovely spread and playing Pass the Nikon. It was my first REBar Camp and I am glad I participated in PA. I have a lot of family there and Susan Mangigian is always a lovely person to visit. I am going to enjoy studying for my broker's exam hanging out with my PA bay-bays. They know how to have mad fun. I am determined to hook 'em up with some of my family members. Gotta get more of the Tann Clan into real estate (LOL).

The bloggers dinner was a smashing success. I may have to do a Gigglefest Social Media event over at Finnigan's. The food is excellent. The pub has a very charming atmosphere and downtown in Central Philly there's a lot of interesting construction and national monuments. I will have to post another post to share some REBar Camp photographs as well as  some of the sites I enjoyed while wandering dear Uncle William's stomping ground.

Maybe I can get my retired Chef of an Uncle to take us on a foodie paradise tour and do some restaurant reviews. Of course that would require the high-jacking of Mangiggly the I-Talian and several PA co-horts. There are two from Allentown on the top of my list. Don't make me come over there (LOL).You can not hide Jenn, Sardi. You two have got to come up for some air. Unlike Sheldon, I will not photoshop you in, I will come get you, even if it means making a bogus real estate appointment to drag you both out of hiding (LMAO). Wont that bit of fun make for an interesting blog post, eh? I'll have to get Mandycap to make the phone call. She is the Queen of Pranks. Ask Richard Weisser. ;-)

Here's a little eye candy from our hangout at the pub. Can you name these bloggers? I always love running into Jeff B and Inez. I am star struck when around those two. Helpful Hannah is a hoot. Marget Woda is funny as hell. Who knew I'd be cracking up all night? Got lots of pictures... wonder what I'll do with 'em... (LOL)

P.S. A friendly word of advice: Never give your camera to bloggers full of beer. You'll be erasing very interesting shots off your simm card for days (LMAO). I'm off to Manhattan. Margaret Rome is in town. We're going to go play in the Rain and do the Book Expo at the Javits Center. Looking forward to writing a review of her book and maybe doing an interview by the Seaport for lunch with my buddy Cindy. ;-)

I can't believe they don't have laws on the books to keep groups like these apart. Clearly there to create social havoc on the world.

Cynthia, I have a few more of those. Lovely artwork all around. I need to post more REBar photographs and some PA eye candy. I did quite a bit of wandering around. :-)

Stacey-Ann, I am going to do a recap of what I picked up with more pictures specially for you. It was wonderful. I've got to try and make Boston. I love Fringe. I want to shoot by some of the show's spots. :-)

Don, Jeremy and I talked about some very interesting personal issues. I had therapy with my buddy and enjoyed spoofing with the peeps as well. When I visit my parents and siblings in SC I'll see if we can hook up and cook together. I'm taking over Mom and Dad's for an ActiveRain BBQ. I have peeps in Myrtle Beach, Manning, Kingstree and a host of other spots less than two hours away. Just don't get my Mom started on my baby pictures, okay? Seriously... My sister will probably have a lot to say (LOL). My Dad is funny as hell so I'm really looking forward to pulling this off. BTW, my baby brother is mad cool. :-)

Susan, Susan. Susan, I am still deleting bootie shots (LMAO). I should just go out and buy another simm card. ;-) I made a promise to myself that I would not spread embarrassing photographs of people so delete I must... Am I tempted to e-mail you? HELL YEAH!!! These things are mad funny (LMAO). How could they miss so badly? Were they aiming at people's body parts on purpose? Is that a zoom shot? Oh my word... We were standing right there and I keep thinking how could people miss the mark so badly (ROTFLMAO). The admonishment don't drink and blog should also include never aim your camera when you are full of beer (LOL). Seriously... ;-)

Kristin, I have to delete them all before Mike posts them on Facebook with very interesting captions. You think my humor can get twisted? Wait until the hubby cuts loose (LMAO).

Lourdes, you have soooo gotta hang out with us. Seriously... Next time I go see Kathy P I will give you a call. :-)

Margaret, I had a blast and am looking forward to seeing your neck of the woods when I come down with the wee people. Seems we may be having a three day weekend coming up. I need to clear the calendar for quality time with the little minions... :-)

Thank you, Steve and you are very welcome. :-)

LMAO @ Todd. We're very resourceful. We'd create an event to elude capture. ;-)

Paddy, it was a real hoot. One may actually say a real riot (LOL).
