Monty Posted June 21, 2010 #4 Posted June 21, 2010 I had the same experience with a few members. It seems some are different in real life than they are in here. I guess everyone was so busy meeting everyone, it made it a bit less social for some. I don't think I met you, and if I did, I'm sorry that I don't remember. I was working on bikes the whole time, and got introduced to a whole bunch of people, but between the work and the heat, I can't remember them all. I did get to meet quite a few, and I hope to meet many more. Maybe next time, I can have more time for socializing. I'm sorry to the ones I didn't get to say goodbye to. I said bye to the ones that were around close when we left. We were just ready to break camp, and get to the hotel to cool off a bit. See ya next time!! Monty & Angel
bongobobny Posted June 21, 2010 #5 Posted June 21, 2010 Yah! With soooo many members there, it's sometimes hard to remember everyone's names even though you know them! So, if some were lacking a little in social correctness forgive them as after a while we are ALL in a daze!! Glad to have met you and hope to see you again at the International or some where else!
Yammer Dan Posted June 21, 2010 #6 Posted June 21, 2010 I add a few faces to my old memory each year!! Got room for a few more. I even got threatened this year that now that I know them I better look out!!

Monty & Angel It was nice to meet you Monty, there's alot of people that I didn't get to meet and that happens when you get so many people in a 1 or 2 day event, the more times you go the better it gets. Like you said you were a very busy man and doing an excellent job from what I could see, maybe on the next one you'll get to socialize a bit more. This is a really good crowd and I don't think anyone would knowingly try to give the impression of being unfriendly or aloof. Would they!!!! Ian

Myself I'm just plain horrible about remembering names. Like Yammer I do recognize most folks whenever I've run across them at other Venture gatherings & it does gets easier after a while too. Larry
bongobobny Posted June 21, 2010 #10 Posted June 21, 2010 Geee, as a matter of fact, Ian was one of them I forgot his name but know very well from several other times!!! Fun getting old, eh!!!
Monty Posted June 21, 2010 #11 Posted June 21, 2010 Also there were a few I would have liked to have met, and they weren't supposed to be there. They snuck in, and I didn't know about it until later! I even talked with one briefly, but had no idea who it was. Ain't that right MUFFINMAN and YAMMER?

Been there done that a few times myself. Kind of embarassing to ya later when you realize what happened too. Larry
