I actually just saw it as the chance to set up my OWN lame joke (“he’s horny but not THAT horny,” playing off the fact that stags have bigger horns than goats). You guys all got that, right? guys? Damn. Rob, Buddy and Sally said that would get a big laugh. ---

I have now officially no longer given up on Grace. Or did you mean that I’d rather be a participant with Jim? 'Cause he’s given me the “let’s just be friends” speech. I was devastated. Apparently all that “take one for the team” stuff didn’t refer to MY team. Of course, none of you locals get to make out with me THIS time. I’m saving myself for Purplebear and MaidenUnicorn. ---

Now _I’m_ sick, dammit. Sorry guys, this is shaping up to be a fun one, but I’m going to have to miss it after all. I’m in the wilds of Louisiana, sick enough to make a 15-minute drive an iffy proposition, let alone a 6-hour one. I wouldn’t risk inflicting this on any of you even if I were in town. Catch you at the next one, folks. ---

You know…maybe I should try that move on Zyada. I’ll practice my kiss, duck, and roll just in case she decides to take a swing at me. ---

Okay, beautiful, I’m watching for my chance. _rummages around in medicine cabinet for Chap-Stik™ and Altoids_ ---

Just to make it official, I _am_ in town, despite the weather. Looking good for Saturday night. Sorry I´ll miss Ag - but I knew that already. (Hope you´re better.) Sorry Balance is sick. Now who´s going to take notes? (Hey, I´m the _guest_.) Purplebear gonna make it? Any chance I´ll get to meet Palmyra? Oh, and I´ll probably be dragging along my sister. It may take some arm twisting. 😉 ---

It seems the room that we have reserved at Celebration is for a maximum of 10. By my count right now we are at 11. If that is a firm count, then they’ll move us to a larger area, but they need to know many there will be. So, **Palmyra, MeepHead, ExTank, Beerman, Badtz Maru** , I need a yes or no or at least a definate maybe. Jim ---

Oh… what the hell. I’ll be there 🙂 I’m too lazy to reread everything… so… WHEN exactly are we meeting and WHERE is Celebration?? There’s more than one I think… > [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Irishman \* > **Any chance I´ll get to meet Palmyra?** Why am I getting special attention, may I ask? 🙂 ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Zyada \* > You’re doing an excellent, fantabulous, wonderful job! 😃 Nice try. You just don’t want me to turn this job over to you. Since we are now up to 12 probables, I’ll go ahead a call back to get us into a larger area. Jim ---

Maidenunicorn, Purplebear, and I are leaving the house and heading to Celebration. I know we’re running late but ladies such as ourselves must make an entrance. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. See y’all in a bit. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/dallas-dopers-again/44738.md?page=3)
