    Does that mean Laura doesn't look like Amelia Aerhart (sp?)?

    That said, I've seen Q in person and he really does look like his avatar.

    I like the picture of Drano because it does look like he's riding the subway

    There were some other pictures that didn't really turn out--people blinking from the flash in the dark, dark room, mostly--so I didn't put those up. So Mrs. Quig was indeed there, as well as a few others not very well-represented in the pix.

    wow! thank you! the gorgeousness was the glowing "holy fuckin' shit, I'm free from work and declaring work as my grievance" expression.

    and yes, armchair does look like he's not old enough to be drinking a long island iced tea.

    I'm rather grateful that the shot of my re-enactment of subway leg-spreader jerks apparently didn't come out okay.

    Seinfeld' spurs Festivus pole sales
    By DINESH RAMDE, Associated Press Writer Thu Dec 21, 12:43 PM ET

    MILWAUKEE - Kevin Campanella hates buying and receiving Christmas presents that he says inevitably disappoint. This year, no such worries. Campanella plans to seek "serenity now" by celebrating Festivus, a wacky holiday popularized in a 1997 "Seinfeld" episode. Billed as "Festivus for the rest of us," the holiday celebrated by the Costanza clan on Dec. 23 features an airing of grievances and feats of strength in which a guest must pin the host before the party ends.

    From the article:
    Wagner sold about 250 poles in 2005, with around 100 sales coming from the firm's 120 employees.
    Now those guys have the festivus spirit! Either that or buying one helps you to stay employed the next year...
