So here I am. It’s 6AM on a Saturday and I’m posting.
I just had this freak-a-zoid dream that I met many of you at a Dopefest at a highway rest stop down south someplace. But the inside of the rest stop was a combination of my grandparents old depression-era apartment from Chicago and a pals run down college apartment in Frostburg.
And now I can’t sleep. So I’m getting some work done at 6AM.
On a Saturday.
Awwww…{{{JC}}}
Hey, I just got hugged by the Doper-Groper Babe!
On the up side, I just got back from stocking up on the wine.
3 Bottles of Mead
2 Bottles of Raspberry Wine
1 Bottle of Plum Wine
1 Bottle of Blackberry Wine
1 Bottle of Dandelion Wine
And we already have some Blueberry Wine and Sweet Evangeline Wine.
Who wants a drink!

Ooh, I got him so excited he double posted.
What, no elderberry wine?
::D&R::

Hey! No bragging about getting the old mid-30s guy excited! I don’t think my heart could take it!
Elderberry wine? Only the French know the smell of elderberry wine!
But, I admit, I love non-grape based wines.
And I am now taking suggestions for what beer I should pick up.
Can the dopers beat the 87 bottles of beer consumed at the Spring party? Or will they fall short on the frozen tundra of Short Hill Mountain?
In all seriousness, I can be persuaded to bring Shiner Bock, if that would be OK?

The ride will be difficult, as my sister will be back that weekend (I think) but I will keep begging and suchlike to be allowed to drive there. When I get the car I will invite people to ride with me, but I ain’t offerin’ rides I don’t have:)
phantomdiver has already abstained (courteously*) from this one, as she doesn’t do social events unless they’re essentially required, and I am not about to subject the Teeming Millions to the puzzle that is alloran.
87? That’s it? I wager we can break 100! C’mon, that’s not all that much, really.
(p.s., as for beer suggestions, I’m always a little partial to Labatt’s.)
Labatt’s?! LABATT’S?! At least make it a deserving American brand!
Robin, who should point out she’s sober.
Hmm . . . trying for a drinking record? All you need to do is get Weirddave four hours alone with a room of beer and a couple of like-minded dopers and he can drink. And drink.
And drink.
And drink.
It’s really kinda amusing to see him and Airman Doors drinking together . . . AD thought he could stand up to his fellow Dave:D
So…the plot thickens.
I’ve been asked if I minded a Doper using the Chance Estate kitchen for a cheesesteak challenge.
But when I replied to said Doper the email bounced.
Am I the victim of cheesesteak fraud? Does the Attorney General track this sort of crime?
And no, I don’t mind. Bring it on.
Cheesesteak challenge, huh?
I volunteer to be one of the judges! 
Sorry to jump into the fray here (I won’t be drinking at the party, alas), but we need a little help moving this weekend.
Can anyone help out?
I’m sorry to be so late, but ** TP** and I are not going to be able to make it. We will try REAL HARD to make one of the parties next year.
A family situation has arisin that will prevent Mrs.Tranq and myself from attending… Her father is in the hospital with newly-discovered, and terminal, cancer.
We’ll try this again some other time around.
Me too! I just hope I don’t get too cheesified:)
Blessed are the cheesemakers!
