First off, a nod to the sadly absent, but incredibly generous Eric of Straight White Guy who bought the first... well, more like first 6 hours... round of drinks for the attendees. As I did at the bar, I once again raise a glass in his honor.

Second, if you were going to attend and then opted out, you missed out on cool souveniers:

The FritzFest keychain/flashlight, which you can use to see how good of a job you did clearing your windshield with your...

FritzFest ice scraper (with handy belt clip) [shown smaller than actual size].

Anyway, here are some key phrases (possibly out of context) from the bloggers that attended, and other stuff I just made up.

[Just think of it as the New York Times version]:

Graumagus of Frizzen Sparks - ...hasn't said anything yet, possibly due to spammers, allergies, or a suspicious but untimely demise.

Contagion of Miasmatic Review - "Every time I turned around...he was scared of my kilt" - also notable for a picture of Tammi taking the first of 12 steps in Candles Anonymous.

Contagion's wife, Ktreva - needs to get a blog. Start thinking about your blog name.

That 1 Guy of Drunken Wisdom - "we broke cherries"

Teresa of Technicalities - "Laughing Wolf... Straight White Guy...were hung and they appear to be straight"

Tammi of Tammi's World - "it was HOT on Sunday"

TalulaZephyr of Love and Koolaid Stains - "I... could have lasted longer... such... pleasure"

Talula's guest McHenry Dude - needs to get a blog. Start thinking about your blog name.

Matty O'Blackfive - ...mysteriously silent. He said that he had to leave early from FritzFest to catch a flight to DC, but this satellite photo indicates that America's favorite Rock-Star blogger and drunken Irishman may have snuck away to warmer climes...

Richmond of One For The Road - "Right away, people started coming"

Blake of Laughing Wolf - "Tammi ordered me into her bed... and... I took a shower with two beautiful women"

Leslie of Leslie's Omnibus - "hairy and had balls of steel"

Leslie's guest Buckaroo Bonsai - needs to get a blog. Start thinking about your blog name.

Og of Neanderpundit - "in desperate need of psychological counseling"

Jake & MJ of Freedom Folks - "Delish... Bloggers... do it again"

Beloved Wife TNT of Smiling Dynamite - ...hasn't posted anything yet, but since the frequency of "happy floggings" has increased in the aftermath of the event, I'm guessing that it means she had a good time.

But all that really means is that you have to go to the next one and make up for it.

Which I strongly encourage all of you to do.

1 Well, everyone was scared of my kilt... or was that just me. I don't know, I was too shy to talk to anyone.

2 "Laughing Wolf... Straight White Guy...were hung and they appear to be straight" Well - yeah.

3 not scared of your kilt. Just scared of you not keeping it properly furled.

6 Wow, so many ellipses one might be tempted to think I wrote something bad about the shindig. Nope, all good here! It feels like a movie review, you know. Wonderful...Touching...Moving When they actually wrote, As wonderful as a pedophile touching your child inappropriately, unexpectedly moving, like your bowels after an indian hot Curry!

7 All of the context works for me! Well, maybe not Jake's...

8 Heheheh... you know mine is in perfect context. Okay, not literally. I didn't want to have to mop the floor. (And that could be taken in a couple of ways... )
