It was the night of the ball to honor past president's of the Jewish
Center. Or, maybe Suzanne and I were going to some form of
costume ball. I'm not sure we could ever know which.
To see that the camera was in tune, I took a picture of the people assembled
to eat pizza
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0342
and then of the pizza
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0343
and fries. After a few more group pictures
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0344
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0345
Suzanne emerged
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0346
Ben finished most of his food
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0347
and Jane and Fred
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0348
decided to do Blair Witch project pictures.
Next, Jane took many pictures of us in our unusual costumes

../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0362
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0363
as Sarah paced
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0364
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0365
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0366
withe the phone and Benjamin did his puppy dog
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0367
imitation.
Once we reached the ball, we recorded Peter and Seva
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0368
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0369
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0370
and what they were eating
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0371
and then Steven Just in various moods
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0372
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0373
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0374
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0375
until I got the picture I wanted
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0376
as Suzanne watched
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0377
and Sara ate
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0378
causing Suzanne to eat
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0379
until the 2 came together
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0380
and plates were shown
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0381
to end the mingling time.
Once at our table, we recorded the Levine's
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0382
and Peter's matching tie and cummerbund
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0383
as he read the menu
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0384
and the Just's posed
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0385
as did Larry and his wife
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0386
and the Leopold's
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0387
while we welcomed the bread course
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0388
in quite good spirits
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0389
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0390
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0391
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0392
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0393
much to the amusement
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0394
of the guest photographer. The salad came
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0395
along with tasteless white wine
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0396
and chocolate that would later prove to be just as tasteless
though the flowers looked good
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0397
but not edible. The entrees -- fish
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0398
and chicken
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0399
amused Peter
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0400
as did my vegetarian meal
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0401
but the chocolate cake
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0402
and alternating fruit dish
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0403
amused only me
../../../Sabbat/2003/02.01.03JewishCenterFormal//IMG_0404
as the evening wound down.
