I tried to get a good sampling, I know some of them are out of focus (no flash + on a train was the most common culprit) .
If you're not in them and I was taking pictures of you, its an evil plot by the Mormon cab^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H a completely random occurence, and I'm sorry.
Enjoy!

Noemon - that is indeed the Soul Fairy. He stepped off the bus and into our lives for only a short 15 minutes, but all of us left with slightly longer hair, flared pants and a hankering for some fondue.
There needs to be a Soul Fairy t-shirt. ElJay! What do we need to do?

THe only think that I thought when I looked through those pictures was that I don't know who thses people are. The only people that I reconized were Kama and fugu13 (I think his name is Russel, but I am real bad with names). Could we get a little catpion action un in here? Please?

I tried reading name tags, and upon a further inspection, I did reconize a couple others. But still, captions are real nice.

pssst - if you take the time to look at the Jatraquero album on foobonic, you'll soon match faces and names . . .

Go ahead and give it a shot, Annie. I've got at least one design for the t-shirt myself: black and white outline of the pic showing his front, with his hair, sunglasses and chain filled in. I'm still working on some sort of slogan to go on it somewheres, but at least one of them will be: "I just can't leave ya alone, baby."
Also, for those who wish to know-
First page, from left to right: Celia (on left), Kama (right) kwsni Telperion the Silver Rappin' Ronnie Reagan Diane (sndrake's SO) Celia again, and fugu13 Allegra (new Jatraquera) holding Sophie saxon75 (left) and Juliette Ivygirl Farmgirl Bob_Scopaz Celia's Dirty Harry Impression, and JohnnyNotSoBravo dkw and Bob Richard Berg mackillian and T_Smith "You talkin' to me?" Celia sleep... sitting... mackillian ready to poke holes in Ken MeltingSnowman and Kara Myself in a classic bad picture pose, Vána, and Allegra, Kama displaying the universal symbol of friendship Annie Telperion the Silver Myself, in form once again - not in front of the camera when I'm needed Another photo op missed... Kama being self-referential TomDavidson, Hobbes and Annie in front of the Art Museum Xnera and one last classic pose from yours truly Kama getting much needed screen time JennyGardner getting some much needed pre-meal rest
Page two:
Kama preparing to be carried to the bus Jenny coming to kill the photographer
And last but not least: The Soul Fairy*, in rare form.

The Soul Fairy's only purpose, I think, was to bring funk and rhythm into the lives of random strangers. He stood there at the bus stop with us, playing his music. How could I help myself? We danced.
God Bless the Soul Fairy, wherever he may be.

It is not often that you get to take a picture of a Soul Fairy. They are very swift. I am SO downloading that picture.

I'm so not jealous. I can see that your stupid cute happy smiles are masking your true feelings of boredom and uncomfortability. Phew, I'm so glad I couldn't afford to go to kamacon.

Fallow, I have no idea what you are saying. Anyway, I can see you know what I'm talking about. Being highly empathic, you are taking the confusion and unhappiness you feel from all the juatraqueros that are currently at kamacon, and are projecting it in this thread.

Would you be so kind as to ask ElJay if she got my order for a "Kiss Me" t-shirt, that I sent in a looong time ago? Thanks! I was reminded last night, when Noah told me how sexy he looked in his...
And as a second note, it was wonderful to talk to you guys last night! (or morning, for you) It put me in such a good mood, my roommate couldn't figure out what was wrong with me afterwards. So, much as I would kill to be there right now, I'm not quite as jealous as I was before calling, because it was great talking to you guys! Posts: 7877 | Registered: Feb 2003

Hi Raia! I'm not at KamaCon anymore, so they can't ask me.
I have your order, and I have your shirt. The shirts came in really last minute, so I didn't have time to e-mail people who ordered them and need shipping... I'll be sending y'all the final prices and my mailing address for checks and stuff, and getting your shipping addresses, probably tomorrow evening. (Tuesday.)
Rivka offered, in your case, if you'd prefer that I can mail it to her and she will bring it along when she comes to visit to save you on shipping costs. But really, they're pretty light, so I don't know if it will be an issue. I got a package of mailing envelopes, so I'm going to put all the packages together and weight them before I e-mail people so I can give you exact shipping costs.
Anyway, shirts are way cute, and you'll have yours soon. Sorry you couldn't make it... I'm glad you got to call in, even thought I missed you.

I want to point out that, quite repeatedly, I offered my camera -- and camcorder -- to men who might want to capture some of that hot tub action. Sadly, half the men were Mormon, and most of the other ones were married and therefore officially scared of non-wives in bikinis. (BTW, there is nothing in the world that looks more frightened and awkward than a Mormon boy holding a Playboy magazine.) We were a distressingly honorable group.

I will post photos as soon as I have mine developed (I don't own a digital camera, alas). And Christy, I know that I DID get photos of Sophia for sure..
Are we going to have a clearinghouse site on Foobonic to post all of these, or is everyone just going to keep their photos on their own site?

These are fantastic. Kama definitely needed much more screen time and I'm so glad she gets it here. She is indeed a star and deserves her own con named after her. I know all the guys were already crushing on her but after this the girls will all be too.
Some of my favorites of these: GREAT pic of Russell! He looks so candid and alive there or something. Annie's closeup is also quite wonderful. The key, by the way, skips Richard Berg. That picture is also great. I met Richard at the very first hatrack picnic in L.A. in was it June of 1999? I believe it was. Some newbie named Slash came and was the star of that one, and he specified no pictures, so there weren't any. But it was so great. I wish you guys could all have come! My last and favorite favorite is Celia pointing the raygun or whatever it is. Wonderfully characteristic! It sent a thrill of fear into my heart for her sheer evilness.
I SO wish I could have been there!

Foobonic!! I think fugu and mack should send them to foobonic too, although mack may have copysright issues with that.
I'm sure ludosti can create a kamacon folder for it. There were TONS of pictures taken, and it would be great to have them in the same place. That's what foobonic is for. Posts: 26077 | Registered: Mar 2000

In Mack's album there's a picture of EIJay and right under it one of Jenny. Is it just me or do those two look like they could be sisters?

Yes, there definitely needs to be more Kamacon!
I think we should start planning next year's now. In fact, if it is in San Diego or L.A., I will even *gulp* volunteer.
I'm no AJ, and if it's in San Diego I will need a lot of logistical assistance (less in L.A., but still would need some!), but I think I could make it work.

If you'd like the Kamacon pics to be on foobonic, start sending them to me (put kamacon in the subject of the email, so I know to put them with all the other kamacon pics). It'd also be super if you could identify everyone for me (so I can put it in the caption of the photo).
