The SFKossacks are lucky to live in one of the top tourist attractions
in the country; San Francisco. On a regular basis we get to entertain
visiting celebrity bloggers. Last week we had the terrific pleasure
of dining with Featured Writer and community fav exmearden.
This was our photo at the end of the evening.

Let me set the stage for you below and tell our wonderful story of
having exmearden in our midst with photos.
45 photos below:
We all met at Frjtz on Valencia in San Francisco.
I arrived to find early birds Jotter and Laughing Planet having a beer.
Laughing Planet and lineatus, these two are not in the group shot above. lineatus had to leave early to catch a lecture by Jeffrey Toobin and Laughing Planet was kind enough to drive her over before his long drive home.
Speaking of long drives, it's time for our Road Warrior Awards:
Mr. & Mrs. side pocket (+maggiejean) 150 miles round trip
LeftCoast and LeftyLimblog aka RedMeatDem aka Ruff Limblog 96 miles round trip.
Laughing Planet 70 miles round trip
rfall (+ oke and Angry Mouse) 67 miles round trip
The owner of Frjtz is a mosaic artist
It's only fitting that our resident SUPER HERO Jotter pose with his proper background.
He seems to be receiving an IMPACT call.

SFKossacks, REPRESENT!
Swanky diggs at Frjtz on Valencia, San Francisco.
The restaurant's super hero theme fits well with our guest of honor and well...
with Jotter of course.
lineatus brought a tail feather from her macaw for exmearden
(note her prized special pendant)

We've all arrived and are ready for exmearden
exmearden arrives! (my new camera was on wrong setting or on the correct setting of blurry. I would normally delete such bad pics but no one else got exme coming in the door. Here's hoping a collage with the theme of a blurry welcome makes a statement.)
exme arrives to much fanfare
exme listening to eveyone's introduction, you try computing real names AND screen names
Then with a lot of glee she POPS her top and wants to pose with the bat signal !

Either the computers are syncing or the humans are... or maybe both.

I took the same photo but thought it would be funny to leave the red eye correction alone. Doesn't she look angrier? Frickin' laser beam eyes I tell ya'. Watch out! She's so pretty I thought she could handle it. Hope I don't get a front page rant on making her mad...
Laughing Planet and a not so Angry Mouse, I hope...
