“Eros will have naked bodies; Friendship naked personalities.”

The whole family made it over to Keegan's Saturday night for a lovely evening with many of our fellow bloggers from the Minnesota Organization of Bloggers. I didn't wear a Hawaiian shirt, despite Kevin and Ben's attempts at peer pressure which didn't work because, well, they'd have to be my peers. Anyway, since a picture is worth a thousand words, here's about a month's worth (at my recent pace) of blogging:


Surly Dave rode his new Moto Guzzi to the event and was "Kindly Dave" enough to let a long-time biker,
the Reverend Mother, take it for a spin.


Mocha Momma and Kingdavid from The Far Wright joined the festivities. (That's Dan Stover, the Northern Alliance Wannabe in the background.)


Jennifer and Brad Carlson made their debut at one of our official MOB functions.


I think Learned Foot is beckoning the photographer to come closer. Either that or he's ordering a beer and a shot, hold the beer.


After two years of trying, Kevin finally snuck a beer past me to the Mall Diva. (Don't worry, Mr. Keegan, she gave it back.)


The Reverend Mother spent part of the evening eavesdropping on Mitch Berg. "He's really interesting," she said. "Is there anything he doesn't have an opinion on?" If so, we haven't found it. I do know he likes Springsteen and, along with Strommie, the Mall Diva.

While this post might give you the impression that all I did all evening was run around and take pictures, that would not be correct. I spent the evening talking with the folks shown above and many others, including John and his wife from Roosh Five and Jeff Kouba from Peace Like a River and Truth vs. the Machine. The photos were taken by Ben from Hammerswing with my camera, however. I've emailed a lot of the images to him for him to post so you might want to check over at his blog in the next couple of days to see what he has added.
