thanks for the invitation. I wouldn't bring an SLR, but it's just too far away from Berlin. dreaming of flying over to visit NYC and Vancouver next year though.

Please give us a shout so we can make it easy for you to attend.

Darren won a door prize of a 100 foot roll of Ilford Pan F (expired, but refrigerated) for being the RFF'er who traveled the furthest to attend a Meet-Up. He also came back for a stay, and worked in NY for a breif time.

All are welcome. Usually a lot of fun, laughing and tons of gear. In February we had a Leica M-Body beauty contest that was over the top. Had two M9's: one "vintage" and one new. Also had one Meet-Up where drunk girls joined in because we were being so self absorbed.

"One girl asks me, "Don't you think I'm pretty?" and I respond, "My girlfriend definately won't like you," and then all hell broke loose.

Later I asked the drunk blonde, "Do you think a bunch of old guys with expensive cameras is sexy?" and her response was, "Very sexy." LOL. We were all howling.

Wait, Sunday is the 12th. Are we meeting Sat or Sun?

EDIT: Ahh, missed the section of the thread where the meet-up was moved to the 11th. Im taking my daughter to a show on Saturday so Ill have to sit this one out.

Damaso: hope you have a great trip to Havana. Have you been before? I was just there in June for the first time and hoping to go back soon.

It is Saturday the 11th, not Sunday the 12th.
 
Saturday at the White Horse. Sunday in Havana, Cuba. Drunk chicks who think old guys with expensive cameras are sexy drink free (Cal is treating; don't tell his girlfriend).

Looks like I will be missing things if we do December 12th, I have to go to Cuba that day. Of course if we do Saturday Dec 11th it also has the virtue of being my birthday...

Well, suddenly, the 11th looks real good to me. (Maybe we can repeat that date for January 11, which happens to be my birthday.) :D

This is going to be one of the more turbulent months in my life (I'm moving, albeit a silly-short distance), but I intend to make it to see youse guys!

"Damn everything...but the Circus."

I'm a free agent now, but hope for slightly more sober female attention at the White Horse. (Of course, given Thomas' infamous fate, I can't say I'm too optimistic.) :rolleyes:

I'll pay for the drunk gal drinks... but only if they pad my ego with sweet nothings in my ear.
 
I wish I could join you folks at the White Horse; that place holds a sweet memory for me. On the day I passed my final doctoral exams at NYU, i celebrated with beers at the White Horse. No drunken ladies present because no ladies allowed (that surely dates me.)

Congrats on a monumental achievement.

For all you single guys, I don't mind being a "Tease Horse."

As for old age, I am a 52 year old man trapped in a 30 year old body. I don't drink, but drunk girls seem to like me.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to make this one. (out of town).. :-(
Happy Birthday Damaso. Please, someone buy him a drink on my behalf.
