Where in the World is Flap Watch: 1st Moscone – Schmitz Blogger Congeniality Dinner

Armed Liberal has Moscone-Schmitz Dinner

A great dinner at Ocean Seafood last night with a fun and engaging collection of bloggers.

Everyone seemed to have a good time (except for the whole ‘waiter bringing the live fish by for us to inspect before they fried it’ thing. Several folks felt that we now had a personal relationship with the fish, which made them uncomfortable when it was served. I’ll note didn’t diminish the speed with which it was devoured)

Great food, beer, excellent and good-humored company and a lively and usually friendly chat.

I hope we do it again soon.

Yes, a great time was had by all and the Armed Liberal pictured above was able to moderate the politicla discussion so that Flap did not have to fight off a rabid pro-Kerry blogger from the Valley.

Heh!

Read Cobb’s account of the fish tale here, Eating Nemo.

The third thing that you notice about Marc Danziger is that he’s older than he looks and he has probably heard that amusing anecdote you’re about to tell before. The second thing you notice is that he’s totally unphony and genuinely interested in holding court, and he’s good at it.

Last night, court was held at Ocean Seafood, downtown in Chinatown. We expected a couple dozen but became about 10 gradually thinking we might only be five. Among the courtesans as the Moscone-Schmitz Roundtable were Flap and his better half, Dave who remained rather reserved through the evening, Pamela the Kerry Goddess, Rand of Interplanetary Musings, Juliette, my brother Doc, Marc and myself. The guy whose name I forgot set me straight on some Long Tail implications, but he was on my bad ear side and some of his wisdom was garbled in translation.

We broke up around 11, and lagged around until they threw us out. All promised to return. I’m in.

It was nice seeing Cobb and Baldilocks again – fellow members of the Bear Flag League.

Flap is in too and will be looking forward to the next meeting.
