Ever since August 1998, I've been hosting a Party At Ian's Place about
every one to three weeks. See The Party
At Ian's Place homepage for more information.
Party At Ian's Place At Julie's Apartment In Montreal (PAIPAJAIM) was held
on Friday, 3 September, 1999, at Julie Lavoie's apartment in Montreal.
The theme for this PAIP was "geek masquerade"; guests were invited to
come dressed in a fashion that would suggest (usually in a punny way)
a computer-related "thing".
We set up the apartment with themed labels.

- Next to Julie's horseshoe: "
bug feature". It ought to
be a bug, because traditionally, a horseshoe hung in this manner (pointing
down) has had all the luck fallen out of it. But Julie insisted
(Redmond-esquely) that it was supposed to be that way, and so it's
actually a feature, not a bug.

- My favourite. On the door to the balcony: "HCF". Try to figure out what
it means. Click here for a hint.
