Sm-Lan 2006 - A personal thank you
This is written with sound mind and body without alcohol influence 
For those who don't know.. this is my first (ad)venture over to the USA to see Brian and Co
From first arrival to right now as Im typing this.. I can honestly say.. that I have NEVER had as much fun in my life as I have had in these 4 days. EVERYONE who was present has been absolutely awesome. The coolest, funniest, craziest bunch of people to spend time with
For those who have never met other Short-Medians.. it's difficult to put into words. Each person I have met is as unique and as individual as you could hope to meet. From QCH (the electrics master with the sharpest wit ever) to Pseudonym (the ultimate party guy) to Magic (the only man who makes a bandanna look good .. well done my hard rocking brother)... you guys are seriously bad ass :headbange
It has been fantastic to meet so many of you who I have never previously had the privilege to meet. Thrax, Prime, Sledgehammer, QCH.. the list endless.. really is endless.
So Il sign this off with no request for reply... just to thank each and every single one of you for making this the most killer, fun, crazy holiday I can remember. The Short-Media spirit and family was alive & kicking ass this weekend. You guys did that. Hell... Im so proud to be a part of it.. and Im truly humbled by it.
Thanks guys and Il drink a cold one to you all

Oh, Shorty... I'm still hurt that you proposed marriage to me then backed out for a chick. Yeah, she was cute.... yeah she probably shaves her legs.... yeah, she has long hair.... Yeah, I'm sure she has a TON less facial and back hair... But, DUDE, a chick is never suppose to get in between guys.
That's what dads are for.
boo hooo sob snifle
Truly, this was a magical weekend. Dan, you and I have talked on the phone for the last four years, and we said someday we would meet. It was a blast. It took the cancellation of a friend's wedding to get there, but I suppose every cloud has a silver lining. I don't think I'll ever forget our mock Noo Yawka showdown in the backyard. There you are, the prim & proper Englishman, cursing like an irate longshoreman on no sleep and a drunk on case of beer. Of course, being the true Noo Yawka, I came out the victor. "Yeah, but who's sittin' down now, beyotch?"
It was great meeting all of you for the first time. Quite a bunch of characters in this group. Okomik, thanks for broadening my musical horizons; I've got a ton of great tunes to check out this week. Q, Larry, Cyclonite, I'm glad we got the chance to play a nice little prank on Sledgehammer.
Sledge, I will body slam you one of these days. And by the way, your mastery of forum names is classic, bar none. Puh-sway-doh!
Mackanz, thanks for making ****ing beer drinking so much fun.
Citrixmeta, I'm going to practice NHL '06 so I can kick you ass next year, and so we can beat the game in co-op mode on Difficult level.
Cyclonite, thanks for being my temporary roommate. Thanks for letting me borrow that flashlight so I wouldn't kill myself stepping on Bionicles.
I saw true humanity and friendship this weekend too. The Walk for a Cure, Mackanz suggesting we all chip in to buy the video card from Drasnor to give to Raul, prime's forgetting that I sat right next to him at the bar on Sunday night.
I want to thank everyone for a great weekend. Thanks for a wonderful community of people I can truly call friends.
I think he was just farting out loud.
Shorty, Brian, Kwitco etc... my door is open here in California if you ever want to vist for a few days...
I love the legacy I have created. Americans all the country calling people "wanker" and "tosser"
Prof runs and hides...
No, you mean Barking Spiders right?
