Roger looks precisely the way I envision him. Lucky you! You got to meet the Bums! Well, I’m very disappointed that Robin is hiding, photogenic or not. Roger looks precisely the way I envision him.

She is very self-conscious about her photographic appearance and I cannot fathom why, but there it is. I have met cyber friends, and usually am delighted as well. I am in awe of what the internet has done in terms of creating relationships and conversations, near and far. RoRo are dear to me -- aren't they just the greatest? So much fun and hilarity all rolled up with a healthy dose of intellectual snobbishness with a pinch of plain old humility. And they loved meeting you, too, 'cause they told me so over the phone. Glad you all had such a good time! Robin’s covering her face just to ruin your shot!!! She is very self-conscious about her photographic appearance and I cannot fathom why, but there it is.

Brian, maybe it was one of Colbert's adopted "children". He, Angelina and Madonna are neck-and-neck in the celebrity adoption wars. Roger, I worried about how much urbanity we should expose you to. But, then, you guys flourished as Bay Area residents, so what was I thinking? I considered live-blogging the lunch, but I've already inundated my laptop with enough food and beverage this year.

I'm one of those people who, no matter what, ends up looking completely weird in photographs. I'm fairlly certain i'm not that weird looking in person, but if I relied on photographs to depict me I'd never be sure. So, no pics. We loved meeting Mr and Mrs Perils. It was like meeting long-time acquaintances for the first time. I wrote Mrs. Perils today and told her it felt like a blind date. Scary, but good.
