G'day everyone!

I'm very happy to announce I won't be in the western hemisphere of the earth starting Wednesday January 16th 2008. For I'll hop on a plane to London and meet up with a self-claiming Mexican, and a bunch of brits and a few nationalities here and there. What relates all these races and ethnicities? They are all Newgrounders and a big meet has been set to (those of age) get drunk and/or converse about stuff we could easily do on some kind of forum on the web.

What makes this extra special is that we will discover how pasty our faces look in person behind all that glamorous flash we all hide behind. To my point, we will be networking without all that nonsensical word typing and messenger alerts on the computer. Just pure vocal sounds transferring from mouth to ear. walking, sitting, and jet lagged side by side for those few glorious days.

Those few good points of personal contact face to face are enough to make a yankee like me feel that it's worth purchasing a 600$ ticket and experience this event. What more can a lonely flash contributer on the net want than meet others in a very similar state?

I'll probably film lots of video footage and make some kind of a movie out of it.
