SAW Agent Sociale II • Buttermingler

Whoop!
A grand time was had at this years Agent Sociale, appropriately titled, “Buttermingler: Optimism in a dive bar!” Our annual ‘industry mixer’ event is thrown by San Francisco’s finest photography & post production representatives. It corrals all the ad men & women of the San Francisco bay area into one watering hole.

Okay, so maybe I am partial to this years event at Butter because they served Tater Tots® (CRISPY with catsup.) As well as other delectable courses served up with pride, like fried cheese sticks, Frito® pie, and a Ho-ho® & Twinkie® platter (think sushi platter.) Dare I say, it tastes like back home [sniff/sigh].

Let me tell you, this was no BYOT affair—buy your own taco ;-). Butter, the bar, took jovial care of us. And even though the PBR ran dry by 8:30?!—all other libations did not.

Truth be told, there was more networking going on in the bathroom than you could shake a stick at. But seriously, time can get away from all of us. Plus, we are all in the same boat really. I have to say it was a fun, but really down to earth event. I had some really good conversations (that were longer that 140 characters and not one liners posted on my wall.) That said, if you are on FB, there are a ton of party pics floating around.

For the record, I’m a fan of the party; any type: dinner, b-day, board game, bbq or wrap! Invites are always welcome here at SAWville.

Lost-n-Found
Oh, and we had quite the fright that Thursday night. Our beloved “pubcam” (Canon G9) went missing after we took 100 pictures with it. Yikes!

Long story short, we woke up to an email from Lauranne that said she found a camera in her purse... “it’s mostly picture of Stephen so I’m thinking it might be his????” Ha! Sure enough we zipped up the pubcam into her purse instead of my murse (my black reissued railroad mail satchel, pictured below.) It was that kinda night.

* Thanks to Heather, Lauranne, Marianne, Quinci, Candace, Gaea, Stephanie, Kate and Maslov for bringing us all together!
