Awwww…that’s so sweet. It was mostly Bluesman, but not to worry, I know how to handle him, and if I can’t, Lucretia sure can!
Oh, and JC, chocolate, chocolate, and more chocolate, baybee!
Then chocolate there shall be.
Some type that’s really good. Maybe from Europe. A little help here from the Euro-Dopers would be appreciated!
Your couch, floor, sofa, my car in your yard, any of that will be fine although now I have to be moved to the very slight chance of not comming. I lost my job on Friday. well not lost since I know where it is, but I am not part of it anymore and will be looking for new work. If the off off off chance I am not on the East Coast for Halloween I will have to bow out, but I’m going to tey and stick near my home area for work
JC, I can’t speak for the other dopers here (especially since one is drunk and sleeping on the floor near me), but candy in general is good:)
Punha is coming as Cecil?
No promises, but could you post the nearest hotels? I am typing this with one hand, as TP has a hammerlock on me. I told her I have to work and my car is old and feeble, like me, and may not make a 6? hour drive, but I was asked to inquire.
So I drop out for a while to go wrestle alligators in Florida and my party thread drops like a rock!
Jeez!
So currently we’re looking at:
**
Montfort
Anniz*
iampunha
Lucretia, Bluesman and the most polite, well-behaved children the world has ever known
Weirddave
Tranquilis*
RTFirefly (who should just paint a mustache on and talk fast)
Zappo*
Geobabe
Tabeitha
MannyL
SNenc (if we can make the sale…)
lurkernomore
TP

Anyone else game to eat and drink themselves into a stupor while enjoying Fall in the Blue Ridge?
And, since I’m here, here’s a song adaptation for you:
Thanks! I’ll be here all week!
Don’t forget Gobear and his BF!
I’d heard your parties were wild, but wow!
Ooo…silly me!
Of course I couldn’t forget you!
I hang my head. Must be those alligators.
And for lurkernomore the closest hotel (other than some B&Bs which look nice) is the Days Inn in Leesburg. I’ll try to get their phone number and send it your way!
Huh. Usually they bring their kids. 
Ooohh, I think I can make this one! Now the only question is which costume to wear… I have a charming and G-rated Bride of Frankenstine get-up. OR, I have the ever-so-slightly PG-rated Rachel-Welsh-Cavewoman costume. Also, I request something black-licorice related for the goodie bags – Good-n-Plenty would work, or just plain black jellybeans. Yum. And, finally, should I bring my traditional Halloween Party Treat – a kitty litter cake?
Given the fact that I have no friggin’ idea what’s going on with me, I’ll say this: I’d love to come, if it is at all possible.
Naturally, having said that, the phone will ring any minute telling me to get on the friggin’ plane at 2:00 tomorrow afternoon. I could only hope…
I’ll let you know as soon as I know.
Yeah, you gotta be careful of those things. One bite, and it will drive everything else out of your mind! 
Looks like I’m going to be working on him for the next few weeks to turn this possible into a definite…
“But honey, I’ve already taken the time off of work, and I got you this really cute maid’s outfit to wear…”
“No, honey, it’s a joke. I didn’t get you the maid’s outfit. I got you the little leather thing we saw in the Village the other week…”
[sub]These really don’t seem to be helping my cause any… I wonder why? ;)[/sub]
Tranquilis, my parties ARE wild. That’s why I keep the bat and sword at the ready! Plus, out here on the Appalachian Trail it’s so…easy to get rid of the evidence.
Hey! It’s a Halloween Party! I can be creepy if I want!
Jess, if I PROMISE to supply licorice would that tilt the balance over to the Raquel Welch look? I’m down with that!
Airman Doors, you’ll always be welcome here. Heck, I need the money! Heh heh heh.
True Pisces, you keep working on him! Tell him I’ve give him one of Airman Doors five dollar bills if he shows up in the maids outfit! How’s that for temptation?

So we’re looking at a total of 22 Dopers and affiliates for the party so far! Not half bad! Think we can hit 25?
Hey, she’s pushing the wrong way…
My car is old and feeble, like me, so I am doubtful.
Her pushing? Think Sisyphus…
Well, I’m definitely gonna go with something low-cut. I need to see if I can collect more money in my bra this time than I did at ChiDope. I only got $3.10–the change was two nickels courtesy of thinksnow, that rascal. Which reminds me: NO LOOSE CHANGE IN THE BRA! Bills only, preferably high denomination. Thanks.
Well, shoot, Geobabe! What the heck kind of Dopefests do you go to where they put money in your bra? I’m offended to report that no-one at a Dopefest has ever put anything in my bra at all. Am I getting stiffed or something? That’s it – I’m definately wearing the Raquel-Welsh-Cavewoman get up with a leopard-print push-up bra.
Jess (in whom feeling competitive apparently brings out the italics)
Well, Jess, you shoulda been at ChiDope! It helped that I was exposing a generous amount of cleavage in order for the fellas to have a place to deposit said cash, and it also helps to encourage them to donate.
Yeah, let’s face it. We’re kinda suckers that way.
