I’ll be sending out emails soon with directions and contact info. If your address is not listed in your profile, please send me an email. I’ll need at least a rough headcount, so if you plan on bringing spouses, SOs, hitchhikers, etc., please let me know.

Yeah, like you don’t get enough attention from Doper guys. (Or Doper babes, for that matter. :p)

Don’t worry, we’ll give you lots of attention a week from tomorrow. You will NOT be upstaged by Margaret Dumont. :slight_smile:

Well, OK, in that case, yooooouuuu seem to have omitted a certain UncleBill from the “definites” list.

Tsk, tsk. I see black clouds on the horizon. Can this marriage be saved? Ann Landers and Abigail Van Buren both have their doubts, and suggest professional counseling. But don’t worry, babe, I’ll be sure to catch you on the rebound.:wink:

And, for the record, I just wouldn’t feel right about ogling Margaret Dumont’s gams. Although I believe she had a more expansive rack than you do, hard as that may be to believe. Tell ya what, drape yourself with several strings of pearls, and we’ll do a comparative analysis.

Oh, hush. UncleBill is one of the reasons for the party, and thus not a guest. I didn’t put myself on the list either, doofus. :stuck_out_tongue:

Does this mean you’re not going to be there either? :frowning:

And who you callin’ “doofus”?

You, doofus. :stuck_out_tongue:

Just making sure.

I was IMed by a friend last night who lives about 3 hours south of DC. We play computer backgammon with each other all the time. She said she was willing to drive up and have a late lunch with me in Alexandria or someplace. Our first meeting IRL.

Woo hoo!

Lunch and backgammon with Nancy, afternoon and evening with Lise and a buncha Dopers, overnight at Firefly Manor! A whirlwind weekend!

Crikey, I gotta get some real good maps pronto.

Up with the rafters high,
Ho for the wedding!
Raise them high, ye joiners,
Ho for the wedding!
The bridegroom’s as tall as Ares,
Ho for the wedding!
Far taller than a tall man,
Ho for the wedding!
Towering as the Lesbian poet
Ho for the wedding!
Over the poets of other lands,
Ho for the wedding!

Goddess, I love the Symbol font

Okay, lemme get this straight.

You’re comparing UncleBill to a lesbian?

I mean, I know he wears a kilt sometimes, but…

Well, he does like girls. And he is rather tall. And he looks damn good in a skirt.

From where I stand, not half as good as you do. :wink:

Just a bump for the weekday folks. Party’s this weekend, anyone else?

Oh, bloody hell.

I’ll be back up at school then- I just got back from France yesterday- so I’m going to miss out.

Lise, it’s been ages since we’ve talked and I haven’t been able to convey to you my utter joy at what’s been going on with you. I’ll be there in spirit, and all I can say without knowing Uncle Bill is that he’s one of the luckiest damn men on the planet and if he ever treats you wrong I’ll break his legs.

Well, poo! Thank you for the well wishes, andygirl, I’m so sorry you can’t make it, and we will have to find a time to get together one of these days. Maybe we can entice Robot Arm down for another museum visit.

I thought I’d bump this just in case there were any other takers.

C’mon folks, if I can make it, you can!

Please send me directions to the party.

Seeing as I like my legs unbroken, I guess I’ll be nice to her.

Just back from a bidness trip, looking forward to seeing my honey again this weekend and being all sweet and mushy. Oh, and seeing ya’ll, too.

Is this event Dominic-able?

Um, Bill, I like you and all, but please, a favor: don’t get all sweet and mushy with me, okay? It embarrasses the hell out of me, and would probably make Lise feel bad…

What? He was talking about Lise? Being sweet and mushy with her??!!

Oh.

[Emily Litella] Never mind! [/Emily Litella]
