Hi Brian; Really enjoyed the japanese dinner with you tonight. Sushi was
excellent. Looking forward to doing Team Frog with you tomorrow at the Autodesk
Animator Studio booth. BTW, nice job in Planet Studio. -dave
Thanks Dave,
I am laying out my Team Frog T-Shirt right now. See on the Show floor.

Here's some ASCII music to go with it:
"… hello mah baby, hello muh honey,
hello muh ragtime gaaAAalll,
send me a kiss bah wiiIireee,
baby mah hearts on fiIiree…"
We actually got a compliment on "the look". Amazing. -dave
Dave,
Without seeing the shirt…. and having absolutely no idea what it looks
like… the word "Frog" and the ASCII music you've provided have evoked
images of a Leon Redbone album featuring a Warner Brothers cartoon character
that at one time graced the coffee table near where my turntable used to be.
The frog had a cane and tophat and I think it sang that song.
I guess the tie to Redbone might be that he was the original voice?
So, is our beloved SysOp also a member of the Toxic Avengers?

That's the one. 🙂 <ribbit>

Yep.

Don't think so. Brian Rudolph and I were meandering through Caeser's Forum the
night before last and I was so frustrated with the polo-yacht-club shirts we
had that I made a proposition to Brian that if he picked out a warner brothers
character shirt and wear it the last day, I'd pick it up for him. As it turned
out, he liked this character (the frog) too, so we both because "Team Frog" for
the day. <g> The cartoon that introduced the character is one of my all time
favorites, and I'm partial to frogs to begin with, soooo…. -dave

Now, The only Toxic Avenger I remembr is the little wimpy guy who falls into a
vat of nuclear waste, and becomes the Toxic Avenger. Strong, powerful, bubbly
skin and ugly as sin. Of course, he gets this beautiful girl by the end of
movie, naturally. Demonstrating once and for all how the weak and nerdy can
triumph.

I remember this guy. He was at the Microsoft NT booth at Comdex. <g> Hey dude,
I'll be over in your neck of the hemisphere around December 4-7 for an Autodesk
corporate meeting. Wanna introduce me to _your_ favorite sushi spot (the one
you mentioned at Mikado) while I'm there some evening? Let me know soon though
as I hate leaving evenings empty. -dave
Sounds good. Any weeknight. Why not contact a few other people and make a small
party out of it.

I'll be staying at the Embassy Suites (as usual), right there across
from Autodesk. Maybe I should pop up there and check out your "new"
(still haven't seen the relocation office) work pad. Let me know if I
need to rent a car too… I have no idea where you live and close it
is to work. -dave
Well, your probably here. If you log in and get this, stop by. Just ask anyone
where we are located. It is in the big building on the top of the hill.

I get in December 4th through the 7th. Hopefully Monday or Tuesday morning I'll
get up there. I'll be staying at the Embassy Suites if you can reach me too,
let me know what day works for sushi. I'm looking forward to this. 🙂 -dave
