I had the great pleasure of having two unsuspecting visitors pay visit this weekend to Castle Famous. I served them both very old wine. They are UMA members Tim Keegan and Paul Koloc. Paul is a neighboring Mpls monster kid while Tim is a seasoned LA member who just happens to work at Universal Studios! Both are class acts!
A good time was had by all sharing monster kid experiences and related ephemera (and few cold beers too). Unfortunately, our dear friend Richard Olson was unable to attend due to family matters. But he was there in spirit!
Who let the dogs out?

The most formidable trio since "You'll Find Out"!
Yes, the Pep Boys of the UMA(Manny, Moe & Jack)
"Meek"(parts is parts)
Looks like a good time was had by all!

Or that other trio with a Moe in it. :D (I'm a knucklehead!)
Thanks Terry for the mini bash and glad the timing worked out so well! Always treated like royalty upon stepping through your door. And Tim, you couldn't have been a more warm genuine cool and nice person - meeting you made my day and and I sure wish you the best! Every time I go to Terry's it seems I make a new friend - now THAT'S a host! Speaking of friends I missed Richard though - waa!

Hey Paul,
It was great meeting you too! It'd been too long since I was last in the 'cities', so it was a blast getting back. Terry, thanks for being a wonderful host. I wish I'd had more time to marvel at your killer collection. Very well done, sir.
Castle Famous is truly spooktacular gang! Definitely worth a visit.
And, well, it goes without saying that it was great to see your 'better half' again too!
Thanks for a great time!
-Tim
It was my pleasure Tim. Your welcome here anytime my friend! I only wish we had more time together. Still, we were able to cram in as much as possible for just two short days. Make that a day and a half to be precise.
And oh yeah .. I almost forgot .. so sorry about those Edina hornets getting shut out to BSM. What a bummer. Oh well, can't win them all I guess. Your friend Larry must have been devastated. :(
How neat! We have an Army member who works at Universal? At the studio or in the park? In what capacity?
Monster Tim: Do you work in one of the shops, at a ride, or entirely behind the scenes?
Maybe the admonition to "Ask for Babs" should be replaced with "Ask for Monster Tim".
Tim I hope you know, since you never made it over to my house, I've already used your picture to creat a lifesize cardboard Tim and give you the monster room tour every night. Oh yeah only now you're wearing a General Custer outfit and you are my stalwart friend.
It's good to see you three modeling the proper UMA dress uniform for your fest! 8)
Sorry the timing didn't work out for me to join in. Next time....
Hi Adam,
I'm at the studio itself here in Hollyweird. Well, Universal City technically. I am a travel agent for the studio big wigs. Fun job, but the best part is poking around the lot and checking up on what's happening. The original Phantom of the Opera opera house boxes are still here in Stage 28. 'Land of the Lost' is about to start shooting and the sets are fabulous!
Come visit sometime if you're in L.A.

Hi ScaryTerry - I missed hooking up with you too - let's make next time any time! You're always welcome to stop over, eyeball some monster stuff or just have a coke and some yuks - and the Famous General agrees I bet.

Will Ferrell? Is this a comedy? I bet Dan R. would have been great as the Dad.
