MEXICO ROCKED!!
I want to say there is a reason i make the treck across two continets to the YP each year and this year proved to be no different.
I was in a thrid world country away from my computer and it was the best show of the year.
Is it becuase of Jay and BOB? yes and no..
YES they put on a kick ass event in a small little MExican vILLAGE but whats makes this event so special is the people the webmasters that come to it. It's a small group of models, webmasters, owners and locals that you can;t find anywhere else.
So without futher hesitations here are my Shout outs.
BOB,
For always making me feel at home in Mexico, the man that always pushed me to go harder and longer when i was a fresh newbie in 2001. Awesome work.
Laj,
The man behind the man, from shows like the YP to the Cybernet Expo you are really doing it right. Nice guitar work and I love the new haircut.
JFk,
YO uhave really peeked my intrest in photography and I carry my cam everywhere now. I wacthed you work and you have an eye like a hawk and you do a kick ass job at caputing the moment. I try but fail to get shots like yours.
Steve Lightspeed,
For making me drive home with him. YOu wanna a crash course in Webmastering there is the guy. Two hours with Steve is like 5 years with anyone else. Shannon Lightpeed is awesome, thanks for Mcdonalds!

My brian is still mush. I know I forgot some one. I didnt include biz names with the people because this show allows you to meet them on a personal level. This is the only show that you really get to know someone. Next time your at a show think to yourself yah we cool we can hang out ,but do you even know his/her last name? Something to ponder.
Here are the pics I promised.
