Wink with keynote speaker Kathy Ireland.


Hey wait a minute!

That’s a synthetic Ireland.


(It should be inscribed as such on her girdle)

I always knew my love for synthetics would get me in trouble...
 
Yes we did, it took about thirty minutes to the mile to get to Senhor Quixote''s hotel Harrah''s which Garry and Paul insist should be pronounced Hurraahs. Traffic at 10PM was worse than during the rush hour. Hard to fathom for a Boise Boy. The slow pace did give John several times to call out, Okay, five feet forward and stop. As if I had a choice about the stopping. The five feet forward was oftem problematioc, but John got some GREAT photos!

A personal note to Wink...


Many thanks for providing me, Leonid, Garry, Neil, Bill and others with private transpo over the last few days. Safe travels home.

Thank you my friend. It was so great to finally get to know you and Leonid and Niel Beatty and Bill Scherlag and Gary Hutton and... Man what a great time I had. I think renting that car was one of the smarter things I did since you all got trapped in the car with me at one time or another and I got to enjoy your company and learn from so many of you!

I wish all of you a great trip home too, but not until you have finished enjoying the show!

Oh you mean that ''other stuff'' with strange women and topless reviews? Well, I can only answer for the people I was hanging with, but most nights we were home in bed and sleeping the sleep of the exhausted by 10:30 or eleven.

HI:

Oh I''m afraid this wouldn''t suit Elvis at all--"a little less conversation and a little more action...please.."

cheers--Sharon
 

Final scenes from JCK.


It was fun walking the floor thinking about what Pricescopers might be interested in. I''m fairly certain my shutterbugging was a nuisance on occasion, but everyone accepted it heroically.


A few more from the show:

Isee

Garry and Michael Cowing.

Michael''s studies on contrast brilliance have driven much research and development for the trade. It was great spending time with him.

Brian and Garry brainstorming with DiamCalc.

(If you look closely you will see that in Oz they have developed a brand new ''Handtop Computer''... Useful for navigating the down-undernet.)

Yours truly with Jonathan and Dana Von Sternberg of Eightstar Diamond Co. Dana is Richard Von Sternberg''s son - and Systems Manager for the company.

The remaining photos are more casual - away from the convention. Just some fun shots.

"The Breakfast Club" (minus Lieve, who took the photo, and Wink, who had to take off)
