Chocolate Fountain and Gratuitious Name Dropping

So tonight was the annual Writer's Guild Animation Writers Caucus Meeting & Reception. Long title - fun time. Held at the Writer's Guild building every year, this is one of the two big parties that the Animation Writers Caucus throws each year.

Lifetime achievement awards were given out to Al Jean and Mike Reiss. Before they spoke, they were introduced by Patric Verrone. If you want an award presentation to be entertaining, give the microphone to three Simpsons writers. They were hysterical.

Then afterwards, we were treated to dessert - and a CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN. It was a flowing fountain of melted chocolate - and we had our choice of food stuffs that we could stick in the fountain. Bananas, strawberries, cookies, etc. And there was a whole room full of talented and successful writers all jamming things with reckless abandon into a FOUNTAIN OF CHOCOLATE and laughing maniacally.

And I'll gratuitously name drop all the people I knew and/or recognized and/or shared the chocolate fountain with (apologies if I missed anybody) - Al Jean, Amy Wolfram, Andrew Robinson, Bob Goodman, Bob Skir, Brooks Wachtel, Charlotte Fullerton, Christy Marx & Randy Littlejohn, Craig Miller, David N. Weiss, David X. Cohen, Doug Molitor, Francis Moss, Holly Huckins, Joelle Sellner, Marty Isenberg, Marv Wolfman, Matt A. Wilson, Matt Wayne, Mike Reiss, Mike Scully, Nicole Dubuc, Patric & Mya Verrone, Rob Hoegee, Ron Zwang, Stan Berkowitz, Steve & Cydne Granat, Steve Darancette, and Xandy Sussan.

Time to get some sleep. If this ends up being my last blog post ever, know that I probably overdosed on liquid chocolate.
