Patty Marks, Jaid Black, Crissy Brashears at the EC Party.	MT brought Tit and Tat out to play...need I say more? :-)
...and she had absolutely no trouble finding someone to play with...but he's SO young!	Jaid Black and Kate Douglas
Flash, Shelby Morgen, Treva Harte and Mama Z (in fightin' stance!)        Shelby Morgen and Bry of the glorious ankles... and they ARE glorious!	The crowd at the EC party      The boys were getting wild...    Then they played "YMCA!" That was a hit!!!
	Everyone came in terrific costumes and the party was a ball. People were talking about it all day Thursday and still buzzing about it at the end of the week. I made a point of thanking the cover models for coming--they may be really young, but they are some of the nicest kids you could possibly meet. A couple of them were there with their moms... I didn't realize they had to shell out their own money for costumes and such, but there's the hope of that elusive contract that comes with the Mr. Romance Title. I hope someone can let me know who won! I can't recall.
