OK, well, maybe not dinner, but lunch at the Hard Rock Cafe in New York City.

Yesterday I went to the city with my sister to have lunch and hang around with Aron Kerkhof and his family (a gaggle of Kerkhofs; his parents, brother, wife and him). Yes, we dined at the Hard Rock Cafe, talked smack about all y'all punks and wandered around in the heat and humidity.

Like an idiot I wore jeans. Praise the City for air-conditioned subway cars only two days after the blackout.

So we had fun. Wandered about Central Park for a while after that hunting the Zoo, then spent twenty minutes in the hellish inferno of the subway station at 59th and 5th trying to get Metrocards. We parted ways there, as he and his family went to ground zero and me and my sister went to Midtown Comics in Times Square (40th and Broadway IIRC), one of the best comic shops I've ever seen.

Pictures once they get the film developed, I suppose. And a good time was had by all, including my sister, who fell off a rock in Central Park.

We're gonna try to set something up in December for any of you New York denizens.

I look forward to seeing the pictures.

Ok, hurt me if you must for having to ask but.....who's Aron Kerkhof?

Excuse my ignorance, but who is he?

As an aside, where i come from , lunch is dinner, and dinner is tea.

Well-known ASVSer and motorcycle enthusiast. He's not around much here, but he's the dude responsible for the technical end of my website, Chuck's website and the ASVS and Burning Light pages that Kynes has.

Aron is an ASVS legend. Thou must bow down before him.

Oh, indeed? What sort of legend?

One that everyone knows about but you. Well, you and the orange.

Aron is the man. Nothing more needs to be said

Ok...I see...hmmph. But really, is he cute? Can we poke and tickle him for fun?

Well, educate me, then! In order to be a legend, there must be stories...and good ones. Spill, por favor!

He withered the flames of ASVS. What more need be said?

Well, he's...I can't believe you don't know who he is. He is... You just have to know him. He can't be described. I mean... I just can't imagine anyone NOT knowing who he is! I do! I'm not lying.

He also offered some helpful advice when I was re-coding my PHP-based canon database.

Aron is the master trollslayer of ASVS.

Well, crap Rob, you'd have to link to it while I'm reworking it! I hope it works reasonably well... I started moving it over to the new blog system before going to NYC, and its only half done. Also working on converting the deja links to google news ones.

Anyway, ya'll are making me blush... Enjoyed meeting you and your sis Rob. Lets do it again, k? I'm not sure if you mentioned the possible tie in with ROTK. Does anyone know when that comes out exactly?

I'd be willing to haul Greg up from Maryland since I owe him and as of two week from now I'll be living next door in Delaware.

D'oh, I forgot about that But yeah, if you can get Greg up here, Phil, then we could do this thang with Aron and mayhaps drag in Stravo or some other folks.

Hmm, now, to have a Tennesee SDnet Reunion, lol.

Foolish mortal. alt.startrek.vs.starwars, the newsgroup from whence this forum was spawned. Kinda.

It's suprising that ASVS even exists, because the control message to alt.config was the worst I ever saw.
