Damn it....Knew I should have never let Athena be approved for the retinal scan at my place.

I guess I'll be there - If I'm not, somebody come and find me.

No...Really.

:)

This should be fun and really set the bar (presuming 004 isn't passed out under it...Again) as far as any of our previous nights of Bond-ing here in LA have gone.

"Where all other Bond nights end...This one begins."

*checks ammo, booze and insurance*

This is deductable under "operational expenses" right?

No, did the formal bit in NYC at the BCW.

This is strictly casual.

However, "casual" shoulder holsters are completely allowed.

Yes, the inevitable goofy pics and poses with guns will be required.

*makes note to remove all firing pins and ammo from guns*

*recalls Joyce shooting Freeman in the butt by "accident" *

*laughs*

and Athena, no more playing darts with throwing knives! I just got the wall repainted.....and behave yourself with my Honzo sword...and the LAWs rocket is STRICTLY Off Limits.

Sorry Dear, them's the rules.

This is going to be some cool event. :)

If this is the first time you chaps have got together it must be exciting. Especially as you've known each other for a few years here, but have never met in person.

Here's wishing you all a splendid time at 'Casa Bryce'. :)

Cheers,


Ian

Well, 004 and I met up with the Admiral and the Quartermaster last year. I've spoken to Mr. Asterix several times, but having them all here will certainly be fun.

....and probably illegal....

....but only if we get caught....

...not that we're doing anything wrong....

Nope.

Not us.

Never.

Operation: Manhunt

On Sunday the 18th, Tuesday the 20th, Sunday the 25th and Monday the 26th you're eyes are needed to track down three CBn team members at some of the busiest airports in the world. They'll be wearing their CBn T-Shirts and anyone who spots a team member at the airport wins a T-Shirt themselves.

I rang up the CBNW at Chez Bryce (I think) last night to inform them of an upcoming Moonraker launch... I mean Minotaur, a converted Minuteman missile from Vandenberg. Apparently they went up to the roof ( a la DAF?) and saw this beautiful rocket launch...

Very few were taken by me, but I suspect Athena is trudging through all of them.

BTW - 'Thena - Don't forget to rip me a CD and drop it in the mail when you've sized everything up.

Damn great week.

Here's a few (of the very few) that I took.

That's exactly what I'd just spotted in that first picture. Was just trying to figure out how I could trip over somehow and accidently swallow it :)

Yup, I did.

Glad you guys saw it, I know a rocket launch is one thing I must go and see sometime.

I just saw there's another one coming up.

Much bigger, on Sunday afternoon.
