Fun times

[dhbearguy]

I had such a fun time last night. I got to meet and say hi to so many people. People were already there at 5:45 when I got there to start getting things together with the theatre management.

It was crazy from the start. The line did not stop for almost an hour. I was thrilled that the theatre was ready for us when I got there. No getting tickets and waiting in another line.

The energy of the crowd was so awesome. It is great to hear all these men laugh at the funny parts. All the other times I saw it the audience was very mixed, black women/gay men.

Thanks Mike, Drew and Keith for helping. I could not do it without you. And thanks Steve for showing up to support it. I really think you should open your mind a little to something different! Look at kevin-v5's post on the movie.

Thanks so much to the most awesomest graphics designer I know, and Photoshop Magician. I feel like I use him so much! And he is the bestest roommate ever, and I feel like a shit for not getting him a shirt. boyshapedbox

Here are me and my bitches for the night!!

Well, since I didn't get to see Dreamgirls, maybe I'll pull out my copy of Longtime Companion and lip-synch along with Fuzzy.

:-( It would have been nice to have you here!! But I understand commitments.

Thanks again, Dave---it was a really magical experience. We saw almost all the guys we know in the Bay Area all in one room, and it wasn't even at the Ramada!

I love your wit and sense of humor. You rock!

I suppose there's a joke in there about it also NOT being IBR (i.e., your hosting all the Bay Area guys at the Ramada on your own) but I can't find a clever line to deliver the payload. I supposed this is due to not having enough coffee. Yet.

Ohh, that would be enhydrasf getting the payloads!

Thanks, Dave! The hubby gregorsf and I had a wonderful time. (Can you believe I dragged him out of the cave?)

Awesome!! It is nice to get oun once in a while.

Thanks Dreambear!

Loved the movie and the event. It was great to see so much of the bear community together in one place.

The T-shirts did rock!!! I remember seeing them and wanting one. Maybe more can be made for a FUN-raiser? Richard does amazing graphics design work.

Re: Thanks Dreambear!

Thanks for organizing the whole thing, Dave! The turnout was way impressive. We had a great time. :)

[dhbearguy.livejournal.com]

Good to see you!

[pup-ajax.livejournal.com]

Thanks again Dave!
It was an impressive turnout and a great show!

[dhbearguy.livejournal.com]

You are most welcome. :-)

By all accounts, everyone had fun. I wish we could have gone. You must really have a good time with moviebears.

So who are the cuties (besides you, silly) in the photo?

[dhbearguy.livejournal.com]

Ohh that would be Mike, Drew and Keith. They are all good people, and always willing to help out.

mucho thank you to you and your crew. wed. night was super fun and a great way to begin the year. what can be better than being in a dark room with buttered popcorn and reese's peices in my lap and 400 bears.

[dhbearguy.livejournal.com]

Sorry I did not recognize you. Soooo many people :-) Hugs

More than 400 bears in one place at one time... and I missed it?!?! Well, we're still enjoying this trip to Hawaii. See you soon!

Hey Dave, glad to hear that it turned out to be such a successful night! Sorry I missed it! And thanks for getting me included. When I saw you at Starbears I was unable to explain why I suddenly wasn't attending - the BF and I had gotten into a tiff over going and since he was standing right next to me I didn't want to reignite any of that. By that time we both felt kind of bad and were smoothing it over. So, sorry to seem rude or distant! I totally appreciate you adding me to the list though, and we may well be up for future events!

XO
Paul
