There are many here among us that knew and liked Ron but will not be able to attend his service. I'm one of those peeps and would like to put this thought out there:
Many of us would like to Toast Ron all the way to the Pearly Gates but will not be able to attend his service. Is it out of line to have a Saturday Evening Live thread where we post our stories in remembrance of Ron's life and how he touched ours? We can all tell our stories (and there are many) while sitting in the comfort and safety of our own homes w/o concerns of a DUI or traffic mishap whilst under the influence.
I had thought about a local get together but shit canned that idea once I realized the pitfalls of organizing an all out Drunk in California.
What say ye? This Saturday evening (8-13) 1800-2400?

Bump for a good idea. Also, I'll probably have a small party in his honor at my house in Riverside in a couple weeks. Tenatively on Aug 27. Email me if you're interested in coming; a914luvr - at - sbcglobal.net

The Bar Service will begin Saturday after 6pm PST. Since we will be dealing with at least 4 different time zones; When 9:14 (your local time) arrives you can send/post a personal note to/for Ronnie. Otherwise, let's post & recant our good times with Ron. A man who truly celebrated life. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Kent

Ron would call bullshit if we say too much nice stuff about him, so let's all try to be truthful (and sober)

Just a idea, at 9:14 pm, day of rest, PST all club members, no matter where the are, honk there 914 horns for 9 seconds. That identifiable sound across the world.
