Was at the seminar. I enjoyed the award booking part. Thanks Dan, job well done.
How different was the crowd in Lakewood than in Brooklyn?

I think the paperazzi was much worse in Brooklyn.
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

Last year's intro: Well, the good news is that it seems there will be no lines in case you want to use the women's restroom...

This year's intro: I'd like to welcome everyone to the internet asifa, for the next few hours I'll be discussing the dangers of the internet...............in all seriousness hopefully people realize that the internet is not all bad when used responsibly and that it can be used for the good to accomplish great things and help yidden earn a parnossah.
<segue>How my aishes chayil was able to pack her bags and fly to EZE with me for a night with just an hour's notice.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

Meshugner just got a special mention!
I always had the
 feeling I can't trust him with secrets.
He told everyone about the
transferabilty of Citi TY points??
If you see tomorrow all the bloggers
posting about it, don't blame me.
Love me or hate me. I still love you.

While the yenta in me wants to know if that's him / what he looks like, I know I wouldn't want to be "outed" publicly in such a fashion and I don't think it's fair to him...

+100
If he's not a DDFer yet, chances are he'll join the forums, just think how he'll feel like when he sees these pics and posts.
Would be appropiate for the mods to delete them.
And I'm not that nice and welcoming guy, but this I think, went too far.

If anyone has a problem with a post or pic they are free to RTM. I dont think we have to be that concerned.
