GDavis: You could bring beer and I'll escort you in?
It is somewhat to totally catered and all that and this list is sort of a headcount for the food and drink... but, the Bloot would never want anyone carrying beer denied entry to anything in his honor, or anyones honor for that matter. Email us closer to the event to see how you can help out. You've got my info I think. Cheers!

I'll bring some San Diego brews (the 'GUD' stuff!!) and some salsa.
Blitzo was a character, for sure. I love characters, real people. Sounds like quite a few will be there!
One of the best feelings in the world is the moment you realize you get to choose your family. Love it or hate it, we're all lifers.

I have a feeling that Blitz would appreciate a celebration of someone's life, anyone's life, much less his own. We can all help to celebrate his and anyone else who has met him, has not met him or may have met him at any point.
The dude was having fun at every point I met him.
It was he that reminded me that we had climbed in the late '70's. I checked the records and he was right we had hooked up 30 years PREVIOUSLY.

Sounds like a great opportunity to spend quality time with the tribe. (Thanks Billy!!)

Todd, nice of you to host a party again. My year would not be complete if I was not celebrating something one a year at your pad. So I am going to try and make it. I'll get back and confirm soon. Just wanted to bump it back to the front.
Nice of you to put this on Susan. It was good seeing you at Facelift. If I show up feel free to put me to work!
