Detroit festing of a waltzing cactus

[QUOTE=cactus waltz]
Hi everybody!

Thank you all for the good time. And thanks to Tonya for having us! I didn’t mention it last night, but Tonya’s house is the second American home I’ve been to, the first being the house of rikc, who I visited for Thanksgiving.

I had a great time. I was probably a bit on the quiet side, but I was just unsure how to jump into the conversations. I can hope we can meet in january!

January sounds great. Like I’ve been screaming before, once a month seems about right.
What about that roller derby idea we batted around last time we met up in Ann Arbor?

Everyone knows that you go feather bowling in January…

Feather bowling in 2008!

But only if we can use traditional cheese wheels, hmmph!

I’m apparently like a greyhound in that manner. Some would say it’s a blessing. I say it’s a curse.
It’s my superpower.

After I read this, the image of you licking your cell phone last night popped into my head. Put that into a WHOLE new light!

[QUOTE=rikc]
Aye aye! I was even considering starting a thread. No shit. I am that ballsy. I spent, like, fifteen minutes thinking about it in my car. I might make a thread about Foo Fighters.

Foo Fighters?! All that time together last night, how did they not enter the conversation? They’re probably my favorite band.

We gotta play at the Bath City Bistro! Then I’ll only have a 10 minute drive. :wink:

We are going to have a Foo Fighters party in the Cafe later tonight. Their latest album is one of their best, imo

Totally. I think I heard it’s up for Best Album of the Year at the 2008 Grammys.

I was feeling a bit bad for having missed this. Then I saw the pictures & realized I would have been the old geezer in the crowd and would have had to wave my cane at you all.

Nah, there was more of a mix than shown, honest!

Don’t let that keep you from the next shindig, whenever that may be.

And I believe we discussed euchre playing as a possibility, think of how we can fleece the whippersnappers. :wink:

I totally plan to earn my :15bux: back by schooling my new friends at euchre >:] bring it

Oh man! I so regret missing this one!

It turns out that my brother’s National Guard “Christmas Party” was just a 4 hour briefing for the guys and then a crappy meal afterwords. Fun :rolleyes: . It was good for my dad since he wanted all of the information they were giving…but yeah, I was giving my brother death glares and declaring that me enduring this “party” was his Christmas present. Anyways, it’s good to see that everyone had fun. Was there another one coming up in January?
[/QUOTE]

Ugh! Well, have no fear, because looks like there’s gonna be another one after the New Year. How’s yer Euchre arm? (or are we really doing feather bowling?!)

Jan 4th or 5th anyone?

As it stands today, the fifth works for me.

I usually don’t make plans that far in advance, so I’m free!

If Denzel finally returns my calls I’m dumping you hosers, but otherwise I’m in. :cool:

Yeah, Denzel isn’t in a hurry to be calling.

I think, fer now, well tentively plan on the 5th. Then start a new thread when the time draweth neigh.

And Tonya, if Denzel calls, he’s invited too. We’ll understand if you two need to leave early.

I have to admit, I think I was adopted. I cannot play Euchre to save my life. As a Michigander, that’s blasphemous, I know. :stuck_out_tongue:

The 5th would definitely work for me, as long as nobody minds me bringing another person. I think I could convince him to become a doper, too. :smiley:

I can’t play Euchre either.
Please don’t disown me, Michigan.

Does a game of euchre involve this person?

It certainly could…if** cmyk ** wants to close his eyes and draw him in 3D with all his parts moving.
