I am in Salt Lake City overnight for work, so I sent a message to Jaron to see about getting together. We decided on dinner my first night in town (tonight). He suggested a brewery called Bohemian Brewery. It's a German-themed place with really good beer. At least, the one I had was really good.

Conversation was nearly all about Languishites. If you still post, your name came up. Hell, chances are good that even if you don't still post your name came up.

Mostly we talked about how people have changed over the years. Jaron was 23 when he first joined Languish after the great exodus, and he's 39 now. He's working as a PM having gotten his degree in history. Not at all where I would have put him 10 years ago, but he seems really happy.

He keeps up with a bunch of people on Facebook. Like a number of people, he has lost his Languish password so while he lurks on occasion, he's not likely to be on as Jaron for a while.

I convinced him to take a selfie, but without the sign. Ah well. Maybe next time.

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Is he really a Mormon?

If he went to a place to drink beer he is not a very good one :P

Glad he is doing alright. What is so hard about remembering your password? I have the same one I had back in 2003.

Isn't there an automated forgotten password link he could receive when trying to login to the forum?  ...Or perhaps he's lost access to the original email he signed up with.

Nice meet up for two of our Languish stalwarts.  :cool:


How could most of the conversation be about anything else.  :P
