Gustavo,
 
The wedding may have been non-binding but the henna tattoo turned into
something else netirely when the Chinese authorities decided to take a
little detour to their mildly dictatorial bretheren in North Korea.  Half an
hour in the Chinese interrogation chamber was like drinking milk as opposed
to poison by a five minute so-called meeting with the Disneyesque specimin
known as their President.  That reminds me, I've given the bar/restaurant a
recipe to prepare just for your edification.  After all, you did want to
"start over."  What better way than by celebrating our "friendship" by
eating healthy food, eh!
 
Carrie,
 
Granted my flair for the dramatic  At least I was sober enough to recall
that I wasn't the one who decided to challenge this very same sorority group
to a strip poker match and lost multiple times.  I'm not even sure what the
whole mud restling thing was all about.  It was all fun to watch, I must
say!

Pratik,

let the past go. that tattoo was henna. the marriage was non-binding, and
once the airport staff in Beijing realized the "error", they put you right
back on a plane to Los Angeles, didn't they. half an hour in an
interrogation cell hardly counts as being detained by Communist Party
officials, does it? no. can't we start fresh with this year's CSUN?

Carrie,

Pratik has a flair for the dramatic, but does know where to find the more
colorful watering holes in LA's west-side. if the place hadn't been raided,
i don't know how we would beaten that sorority group in a fair bar-fight.

Hi Pratik,
  
 
  
Who are you scared of meeting? Inquiring minds want to know! :-)

Ah, it's a shame that you can't make it, Peter.  I know Gustavo really
enjoyed leading you through the safe paths.  The pool-side chairs and your
shins had bit of a mutual attraction thing going on.
 
 
  
It appears that I'll make it once again.  I'll be there starting  Tuesday
the 21 and returning on Sunday.  As usual, the conference is being held at
the Los Angeles Airport Marriot and Hilton Los Angeles Airport.  Definitely
would love to meet up with quite a few of you.  As to some others, I'm
scared!
