Default Summit 2006 update with Pics

Erika got started on a page from the Summit. More to come as the event goes on.

It was a fantastic day! Zig Ziegler gave an amazing demonstration of his device and software. I took it as a good sign that Bill even seemed impressed by it.

Bill put his thumbs to good use for several hours, fixing all of our boo boos. He truly amazes me. Both Lost Dog and I couldn't even touch our toes with our backs in proper position, and with one simple exercise, less than a minute, both of us went to the floor with perfect form for the FIRST TIME EVER! Tomorrow will be nothing short of amazing, I promise you that!

Lou just about stormed out when he learned that the hotel was delayed in getting the star put on his hotel room door, and that they accidentally removed the red M&Ms instead of the green ones. After several of us talked him down and forced some valiums down his gullet, he finally calmed down.

Heh... Just kiddin' Lou! I have been so busy working the room and Lou so busy getting to know everyone, we haven't had much of a chance to catch up.

We have a lot of new faces this year. I look forward to getting to know all the new guys, and getting slammed tomorrow with everyone. I lost my voice at the bar tonight (can you tell?).

Keep up with this thread as more will be added!

JP, can you believe it?!?! I'm amazed. I'm showing and telling everyone. Even the people at the Clarion front desk are amazed! (I can tell by the way they look at me, with amazement on thier faces!) I can't wait to do it again.

Great Summit. Can't wait 'til morning.

(I just touched them again!)

Good night!

(and again!)

Oh yeah - it is so fun. I got to pull weeds today, the turtle is lost, I got to shop for the food needed last night... It wasn't a total loss, I did do an Easter thing at the Clinton Library with the kids. What is this fitness summit they speak of?

Are any of those staff member at JPs or are all of them forum people? I see some face I recognize, but there's more there than I thought vacated the board.

Is there a way we could names for that large group picture Erika posted? It would be nice to be able to put some faces to names.

I know there are five employees for sure. There are a few locals too.

Names - As people post, you'll get a better idea of who is who. It is hard trying to describe where I am talking about. Holding the shirt is Nick (ninjabookie) and JP on the right. Behind Nick is Kaiser. Behind Kaiser is Gabe (Deserve). To the left of Deserve is Canuck Guy, the right of Deserve is K-Court. Behind Canuck Guy with the black cap is DKing with a white shirt.... Now I give up, it is too hard trying to explain who is who without being able to point and say the name. We'll see better as time goes on.

I am going to download the photo and try to make it a little easier. Put some numbers on the people and make a list of names.

BTW I am back in mass. Hope everyone had fun on the hike/biking!

I had a 545 flight this morning. The only way I could get home. Also my knee feels like there is a knife in it right now so I wouldn't have even been able to do it. Next year I hope to. ODB did a great job mputting the mornings activities together, really nice guy too, had dinner with him last night.

JP do you just want us to include the pics in the thread or send them to you to be put on the special page?

Here's a teaser:Party crew at about 2:00 am.

Email them to me. You can still host them all you want. I don't want to make any of you wait to post pics. For that matter, you can attach them to a post and I can download them from there.

That's a great shot. Reminds me of the time I walked in that second room in the suite to find Nick standing in front of everyone digging down his pants! :p
