I'll be there....

Nard

I will also be there to present Ray with a poem that I have composed just for the occasion.

Sounds cool. Anyone from here going?

I'm so in.

I'll pop in for a quick visit.

...and to bring the cake!

Chances are I'll be in the area around the 23rd and will be attending.

Look forward to it!

But how will we all recognize everyone from the board. I know - post a photo.

And ruin the surprise?

In the UK men roll up one trouser leg and give funny handshakes (see "Freemasonry") though wearing name badges might be less bizarre unless your pseudonym happens to be 'Carapace Clavicle Moundshroud'.

The surprise may be that we don't recognise you!

"I broke and reached him a flagon of De Grave. He emptied it at a breath. His eyes flashed with a fierce light. He laughed and threw the bottle upwards with a gesticulation I did not understand.

I looked at him in surprise. He repeated the movement -- a grotesque one.

'You do not comprehend?' he said.

'Not I,' I replied.

'Then you are not of the brotherhood.'

'How?'

'You are not of the masons.'

'Yes, yes,' I said 'yes! yes.'

'You? Impossible! A mason?'

'A mason,' I replied.

'A sign,' he said.

'It is this,' I answered, producing a trowel from beneath the folds of my roquelaire."

The Cask of Amontillado, I believe, by a Mr E. A. Poe?

IF I were to attend, I'd be recognized as the "Old Fat Guy" with having had my photo posted several times on this Board. Although I did lose 30 pounds last year, I , unfortunately, found most of them.

You've just described the majority of attendees, myself included.
