During MaxFunDrive in April, we said that we'd hold another MaxFun Meetup Day in October. Somehow, someway, it's almost October! This time, we're trying out a Sunday in the hopes that it opens it up to more folks. Mark your calendars and maybe pick a venue in your town!

Today I'm remembering the time Bob Mackie's publicist asked if we minded interviewing him at his house in Palm Springs and we threw everything in my Hyundai and floored it to the desert. What a dream to talk to this legendary genius and gracious host.
