Anyone want some BBQ?

July 3, 2006 By

Maryam and I love throwing parties. This one was a real barn burner. We had a family of cooks here from New Orleans. Awesome food. 140 people. At least 10 kids. Now the house is a wreck, we’re a couple grand poorer, and we have way too much food leftover. Anyone up for lunch? Heheh.

Thanks to Betsy Aoki for the Hugh plates.

Dave Winer has a very short video.

Oh, I think there was a funding event taking place on my portch. Or at least Chris Pirillo was getting more advice from Rick Segal.

Kim Sacha, the holder of the third-highest score on Zuma in the world, played through an entire game losing only one life. She got my account onto the leaderboard at #27. Scoble’s a cheater, Scoble’s a cheater! Hey, you can invite her and her husband over for dinner too!

Kaliya, Identity Woman and Gnomedex MVP, was teaching the kids how to draw (she’s quite talented, which is something I would never have known by just reading her blog).

Anyway, what a wonderful day. Thanks to everyone who made it such a great one! Hope you have a great week.

    Thanks for the invite! Sorry we had to hurry off so soon, but it was the right thing, as it turned out. There was a massive line at the border.

    Not sure if you saw, but there was a good (yet very sad) reason Adam Curry couldn’t attend Gnomedex or the BBQ this year.

    Have to get back into that. I went to a few BBQ a few weeks ago they were good, but with the upcoming move, I guess I’ll take the opportunity to say goodbye.
