You miss a dinner and BAM, it's like missing an episode of West Wing...it don't
make no sense!

I hate it when I miss things!!!

Previously on....rtlToronto Dinner.

Bruce shows up to dinner after a long absence.  Begins to rant that we've lost
our edge, that we're all soft.

Janey and Chris show up.  Bruce starts with confusing Janey for Kate.  Then
somehow proceeds to insult her by dismissing her.

By evenings end:  Janey and Bruce nearly come to fisticuffs.  JeffVW and Oliver
leave in disgust.  Wayne, me, Chris and Janey go for ice cream.  It was good!

Bruce--seriously--don't piss off the womenfolk!  It's not as if our geeky crowd
attracts that many members of the opposite sex to begin with--we don't need you
to push away the ones that actually, you know, like hanging around us.

I don't really care if we do or don't piss off geeky Lego women.  That doesn't
really concern me.  However, from a human being standpoint, there's no need to
be rude.

And what's this dissing things that aren't robots?  I'm told that i'm a prety
good 'bot builder but I don't limit myself to all things RCX!  It's a *LEGO*
hobby--and I love all that the little plastic brick entails (even the naughty
bits found over on jLug but won't be mentinoned here for fear of the 'morality
police' coming down on the operation)

Well, I think, and I don't want to speak for Bruce, but despite the presence of
four beers before his entrance, his comments have some merit.  This group has
gotten soft, people have had major life changes...so it's true, perhaps we need
to get back on track.
