Actually, we had no car and practically never left the Gold Coast the whole weekend. We did manage to amble across the street to the Rio for a change of pace food-wise. Wanted to use their superior aquatic facilities too, but apparently they require key cards to get in the pool area now. Bumped into a couple from Chicago and the Exotica event (if you read this, I forgot your names, dangit), and talked a few times to Patrick the uber-hipster from Santa Cruz and formerly Chicago. Also many Gorilla X sightings, both in and out of costume, including romps with the burlesque acts and with the Saturn V doing Go Go Gorilla. Word was that Penn Jillette came by to see Los Straitjackets on Sat nite, but I didn't hear about any other celebs. Didn't get to see Dulcie Younger, since the schedule had her on the side stage at the exact same time as the Neanderthals on the main stage, who we couldn't miss. Great (exhausting) weekend! -Randy
