Thanks to everyone for making my first JC event so much fun.

John: you're a rockstar for setting all of this up. Next time you want to get a "few people together", please add me to the list!

Pengy: Thanks for the great time at Alteon. Although, I think I may lose some friends because of you. Evidently they don't want to hear about my sim rides over and over and over and over. Methinks they're just jealous!

To the out-of-towners: Thanks so much for making the trip to hang out with us (and OldTownPilot...I hope you made it to school on time today)!

To the rest of the crew: thank you thank you thank you. I was kinda nervous about showing up since I'm new to JC and don't fly (or do sims all that well) but I had a great time. What a wonderful group of guys and sig others; I really enjoyed getting to know you all.

Holy crap guys. That was freaking awesome!

I physicly made it to my classes today, then came home and slept for 4.5 hours. I was so tired and sore. Being in airplanes for 15 hours in 1 weekend got to my head a little bit.

Pengy, Man that was killer to all of us into the sims.

Seggy, I never thought the first time I'd meet you would be in LA

The rest of you, thanks for everything.

I was just glad we made it! I honestly didn't think we were going to but it was WELL worth the trip!! apparently, i missed some pretty good classes and considering how good everyone did on the sims, i'll proably partake in those next time as well (only with all the ladies in one sim so we can all screw up together!) haha...

JH: Phenominal job man.. just phenominal...what can we say!! we talked about your effort just about the entire trip back..and about Bigey's/Aero_engineers yummies...we talked about things we can incorporate from your effort into the years events...how we can modify them into split events like social vs knowledge camp or who knows what....but both doug and I give a serious hands down to JH for a job WELL done!! dood, your HIRED!

It'll be another day till we have the photos up. I had a helluva day trying to get that high priority intersection design out and I need some serious sleep! haha

oh, and we are again, taking suggestions for the next M&G's..if they get this large again, we may be turning them into more NJC type events but we need a new name for them so we don't wear out the original intent of NJC.

The whole weekend was a blast....one of the best times I've had in awhile.

I slept 14 hours this morning/afternoon, so I think I've finally recovered.

The food was awesome; the steakhouse but especially the italian courtesy of Bigey. I still can't get over the guys at Alteon who took time out of their day to make those presentations and let us use their sims...great time and mega thanks to mpenguin1. And another mega thanks to amorris311 for carting me around the whole time....you da man.

Thanks to Jtrain and Seggy for setting the whole thing up and accomodating me at the last second, and to the Taylors and everyone else who made the trip....looking forward to seeing everyone at the next m&g.

You gonna make it to 60 with your lifestyle? I can see it now: "Pilot dead after slammer hits head"

oh, he'll make it! doug and I were mega impressed with him because he didn't have a drink all weekend even though we were. we see that as very respectful move and know now that FF will make a great pilot!

after all, there's no reason to be dumb and throw it all away for a beer.
