Caught that's perfect we miss you. Bring your suit to maybe hit the river and a buy in too! We have poker night planned for Friday at Casa de Pescado with Jingy and FishFinder! I'm going to call Dreamy and see if he's coming down too.

Meanwhile, beer choices are being made and preparations for a great celebration underway. Blitzo would be proud.

With Blitzo's memorial approaching I'm calling friends and loved ones to the front lines. We are looking for photos of Blitzo. If you have them, please get with me or Russ to send them either electronically or if you have multiples perhaps send us a disk. If possible include any details about the photo or better yet - imprint details on the "slide" so all we need to do is add it to the show. Ideally, if you have good shots can you get on this sooner vs. later as they will be shown on the slideshow during the memorial.

Also, those of you who would like to help with the Memorial.... we need the following items and volunteers.

 Pre-Memorial preppers for the Gordon Ranch (11/8pm and 11/9 am)
 Post-Memorial cleaners and haulers of trash (11/10am)
 Christmas lights, electrical cords and other lighting for venue
 Large Trash cans
 Tables & Chairs for food and people to sit eat and enjoy conversation
 Projector for electronic slideshow. Todd has an available screen

I have a projector that works with a laptop. Only problem is it has a little bleeding on the left hand edge of the frame...if you guys can't rustle up a better one mine should work fine in a pinch. Just let me know and I'll bring it.

Wow, you guys are all so great! Cole, please bring your projector as a back-up, can't be too prepared right?

Ron, you are on-duty as a prepper. Bring whoever you can to get the GordoRanch ready for the masses. If the crew finishes early.... go play or start drinking. Friday prepping would be great if possible but I'm sure with the right people you could pull it off by 3pm Saturday too. Sofcookay is on to help too, along with BlueBlocker and F10.

Thanks Sullly,that's sweet but it's the SuperTaco community at large that makes all this stuff happen. Pretty neat to be a part of it.

Cragman, that's fantastic!!! No need to pass it off southlanders. Maybe coordinate with Marty Lewis. He and Sharon are headed down as is FishFinder, Karen Roseme and hopefully Chez. Between that crew we can get it down the east side and back up to you no problem. THANKS!!!

Dean, that will work too and having it pre-party is probably smart. Thanks again!

Saturday fer sure and we can pull it off no prob! Friday is 33 years of beautiful marriage to my wonderful bride Kelly, so I opt to be with her Friday, but she's given clearance to go celebrate Blitzo Saturday. I'll bring a couple tables and large cans for garbage or booze. I'll organize a barrio crew to get set up.
Peace

Kerwin, yer part of the Barrio Crew!

Hey Susan,

I think we talked about this earlier ( I can't remember ) but we'll be setting up the PA in time for the festivities to begin. Something to get your voice heard over the raging masses.

Did you say Friday night poker?

Even though I was there through so much of it, and thought I had processed well, it is just now beginning to really hit home...

I miss the hell out of the n00b...

What the fuk...


Locker, I feel you, and what you're feeling is quite normal... and will sneak up on you from time to time.
You are blessed to have been so close to a man who meant so much to you.

"When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy. When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight."
