Default The Queen Marys meet
About an hour & a half ago, the Queen Mary 2 sailed into Long Beach Harbor and said "hello" to the original Queen Mary. My office is right across the bay.

Some co-workers took photos with their cell-phone cameras, I'll post them if/when they email them to me.

You're so not sorry.

No, no, no, steve. Don't be sad! That is very cool. I was on a conference call this morning with a co-worker in Seattle & another in Phoenix, & we were talking about the new Queen Mary & they were asking me whether it was bigger than the old Queen Mary, & I had no idea!

We used to have a 21-foot sailboat that we sailed up & down the coast, always past the Queen Mary. For my 21st birthday, a big group of people -- some of whom I didn't even know -- took me to the fancy restaurant (the Prince George or something) aboard the Queen Mary & I had my first publicly official, legit drink!

That sounds pretty cool Chili. Please share any photos with us.

Here is photo that I took of the QM2 back on July 4th, 2004 when she sailed into Newport, RI.

Patti,

I remember when you first posted that photo. It's beautiful! The photo of Lindsey in your sig. however; is another story! It's the most unflattering photo I think I've seen of him! It's as if Kramer and Keith Richards had a baby.

Thanks. The LB photo I found on a fansite and thought that it was perfect for his 'solo project' update.

I've been thinking that pic of Lindsey looks like Keith Richards, since I first saw it. What a BAD pic! Take that, pretty boy!

I looked at them right away and talked about them with a guy at work. Actually, it was the guy who was a drummer on TUSK. Anyway, he said very cool. I'm not sure why the hullabaloo, or what the significance is, but I thought it was cool to see two big boats...
