It's on...

...wait, is this thing on?

I'm currently in my office in Memphis, needing a break from reading Hawthorne, waiting for my next class, so I'm following through on this project to establish a blog space for our crazy little collective.

We seem to have lost Jeff and Bridget (Brigitte?  Biridigitite?) who were, with all due respect, the least crazy members, in my opinion.

For snoops, eavesdroppers, over-the-shoulder-reading significant others (viz. Simon), the collective in questions is the Dinner Group.  Many other groups living in the International House at the University of Chicago in the 2004-2005 academic year routinely ate dinner together, but only one was awesome enough to be titled, simply, The Dinner Group.  (Hint: it was the same one that attracted the attention of at least one budding anthropologist.)

The group was:
Myself (Chuck), preparer of Kick Butt Spaghetti and other dishes leaving no surprise as to the source of his weight problem.
McKenzie (I'll leave it up to the others to remind us of their 'signature' dishes...)
Jeff
Stevie
Melissa
Ellen
Bridget

There were other interlocutors but these above were us.  Now we live on three continents, and I would say, still manage to see each other quite frequently.

I leave it there for now, mainly so I can monkey with the blog layout!
