> [@](#): > > Hope the baby is ok The boss’s wife brought the twins in last week. I heard one of my co-workers stage-whisper, “Don’t go to Johnny L.A.'s cube. He _eats_ babies!” I replied, “Not _raw!_ Not _raw!_” I like babies. But I can’t eat a whole one. ---

Do you keep leftovers in a baby bag? A diaper bag? 😃 Yes, the baby is better, thanks Kathy. Now the HUSBAND is sick, and he’s worse than the kids! ---

:: Ignores Esprix :: Actually, there’s an Ansel Adams show going on at LACMA, which is right next to the Tar Pits (random comment: Brea is spanish for tar. So we have the tar tar pits. But I digress). So I may go over there first, and then join y’all at Marie Callendars later. Or maybe I’ll just look for the group yelling “Asshat” at each other over at the pits. 🙂 ---

I’m actually going to have to mark myself as an “unlikely”. I’m going to Abilene, TX, the weekend previous, and I don’t know about two trips in a row. Downgrade my status to “maybe”, please. ---

Ansel Adams … pits … Ansel Adams … pits … Ansel Adams … pits … hummmmmmmmmmmm… What a difficult choice? Do you think anyone would notice if I left **Rico** to hand out the name tags alone? Maybe a better question would be how long would I be in the dog house? Ansel Adams … pits … Ansel Adams … pits … Ansel Adams … pits … I guess ya’ll will know what I decide to do if you see me or if you don’t. 😛 **bristlesage** your status has been duly noted. Hope you can make it. Kathy ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Esprix \* > **I dunno - Dopers in the Pit? Could get ugly.** You just know they’re gonna end up pulling one of us out of the tar before the day is over. Okay, fine. They’ll probably end up pulling _me_ out of the tar. I should be fairly safe as long as they don’t sell beer anywhere close, though. Oh, and **Edwardina** will be there also. Not that she pays attention to these thread thingies. ---
