I’m in for either the going out together or the potluck. Frankly, I hate to cook, even though I can.

Can I second the vote for Canonita? If not, I’m go with the MM pairs place, and a potluck.

Glad we’re getting together, regardless, though! 😃

I like your spirit, but your jugs are a bit small (read: non-existant). I know that my cheering squad should consist of good wholesome girls who want to save puppies and crap, but I’m really just looking for some nice ass. I’ll put you in my emergency pile.  
I’m starting to miss this place again. Wonder if I should come back?

Sorry about the double post. Board…slow…losing…consciousness.  
By the way, 10 points to the most creative use of this cheer:

Hail to the sungod.  
He sure is a fun god.  
Ra! Ra! Ra!

Would that be puppy crap or just any ole crap? And what do they save it for? I knew there was something about good wholesome girls that bothered me.

:: puts on an old cheerleading outfit, realizes it’s _waaaay_ too tight in some places, further realizes that **Ag** won’t mind some of those tight places, decides to go ahead with it anyway, puts long hair up in ponytails::

Yells _HAIL_ to the _sun_god! ::bends from the waist really low, so he can get a good look at where your top is starting to rip from being too tight::  
He sure is a _FUN_ god! :: points sassily at **Ag** and winks as only she can::  
**RA! RA! RA!** ::realizes that this last yell involved perhaps too much lung power and has to quickly strategically place her pompoms there::  
::blushing furiously, she slinks off::

As per the OP, I would love to come, but am not sure that I can this weekend. I’ll work on it, though. And, as **Ringo** pointed out, Hurricane Isadore may have something to say on the topic. Either pot luck or a restaurant works for me. I’d offer to bring the 'scream, but that’s prolly not a good idea since I’d be coming from San Antone. I’m open to suggestions.

About what food to bring, that is. Down, boys. 😉

PS. I have it on good authority that if it’s chocolate, **Jim** will like it. Er… perhaps I should re-phrase that. 😛  
purrplebear, really hoping she can make it this time…  
**BBJ** , I for one, would _love_ to meet you! I’m sure the rest will too. 🙂

**Kirkland** , don’t be silly. COME, by all means. If I get to come, I’d be happy to meet you and give you a **Purrplebear Hug** [sup]TM[/sup]

kirkland, aren’t you the big mac lover?

er, a huge lover of apple computers I mean, not the golden arches sandwich.

in which case come on down. You and mr baboon can discuss to your heart’s content. He too, is a macphile.

🙂

so, let’s decide once and for all:  
pot luck or restaurant?

I don’t know about **Kirkland**. I’ve seen some stuff he posted that makes me think he wouldn’t quite fit in. I don’t mean to imply that he’s a bad person, but there are certain things he does that make me uncomfortable, you know, deep down. Even if he doesn’t do them during dinner, it’ll still be hard to disassociate him from the stigma he’s built up.

But, I guess such prejudices really deserve challenging. So, and this only applies if we end up hosting of course, we need to lay down a simple rule that I think will keep peace through the evening.

The MacIntosh stays in the car/at home.

😉

Enjoy,  
Steven

Purrplebear currently holds 1st, 2nd and 3rd places with Jim in a distant 4th.

We need some competition in here.  
I just talked to Grace. It’s doubtful we’ll enjoy the company of Mr. Grace, but she’ll be there nonetheless.

**Ag** I would join in the competition, but **Mtgman** does read these you know. 😉

As for **Kirkland** and **BBJ** , come on and join us. It will be lots of fun.

Oh, and **Kirkland** I can help you sneek the Mac in without **Mtgman** knowing if you feel the need to bring it.

When would be the last possible minute to let you guys know if I am going to come? There are some extenuating conditions I need to be clear on before I commit.

I talked with the folks at the Canonita. They said that for a group our size, I told her 15 to 20, we’d need reservations 1 day in advance. So, if we are going there, we’ll need a fairly accurate head count by Friday.

I have no idea what the place is like as far as socializing and mingling.
