Yeah, I feel your pain. You were probably the only ones to show up for Arty's official coming out party. I mean, the only ones. We monitored the posts up until noon, and it looked like no one was going to show. We were still planning on going to Sam's, nonetheless.

But as fate should have it, the party commenced at the stentiki hut, and the Boos, KO & TG, and the T&A show were having too much fun to vacate the premises. Last we checked, no one was coming, so we figured, "Let the good times roll!"

In fact, here's the only coherent pic of the event. There's Uncle Arty, looking hail and hearty, enjoying the one-off Geister that great-guy Stuckie hooked him up with:

Good times. Cool beans.
