And let me be the first to give you the official “Hiya, howdy doody, I’m a union man, you can call me Rudy!”
Welcome aboard!
So many wonderful greetings! Thanks, ya’ll, I knew I could count on you. She’ll be back on soon, I’m guessing. She didn’t get to bed til 7a this morning, and she’s sleeping at the moment. <I sincerely hope so, anyway.>
Good one, John! 
Now I’ll have to tell her the story.
So many good friends here! This’ll be a great party. And, look! An official welcome from Euty himself. WOW! Sis, you really rate.
So, let’s get this party in gear. Who wants to join me in the hot tub with a margarita while we’re waiting for the guest of honor to wake up? 
Howdy rosebear! I’m really glad that purplebear found you.
Hello, rosebear! Welcome to the zoo! (You thought that thread was a joke?)
BTW, you have the exact same name as my mother! Is that strange or what?
Take care of our purplebear, now. I’m going to take a dip in one of the hot tubs. These are clothing optional, aren’t they?
Ok, Sleepy head is awake and ready to have some fun… I want to Thank all of you for the hugs and warm welcomes and boy do I feel loved. Now I am on my way to the hot tub and margaritas, I really could use a big one at the moment. Looks like I am going to enjoy this site and all of you wonderful people… And as for the hot tub yes, clothing is optional,lol…

VB throws a toga at him, walks away muttering “Damned exhibitionists!”

{{{{{{{{{{Rosebear}}}}}}}}}}
Awwwwwwwwww, how sweet and VB I love 151 and cinnamon oil, could do alot with those *** winks at VB******* now that I am in the hot tub I am thinking of starting a water fight but unfortunatly purplebear hid the hoses and took the knobs off of the outside faucets, am thinking of what I can do to her … Anyway until I can get my brain jumped started any suggestions huh,lol… Also we seem to be running out of Tequlia for the margaritas so have brought several more bottles and also some Jim Beam and Crown Royal, running out of food though so haven’t decided what to pick up for this party but give me awhile and again my brain will function soon( I hope)…
As for the clothes issue for the people in the hot tub (here we go,lol) whatever makes you happy, hanging on the wall will be some towels ar sheets or whatever you want to use and here are some dark glasses so you won’t see anything you wouldn’t want to see.(Me, I want to see all,lol)shame on me.
Mr Bear, I cannot wait to meet you and hope we will one day soon, I have heard so much about you (all good) and you have a wonderful family and I am proud to be included in this.
I hope that one day soon I will get to know all of you and until that day comes God Bless and thx for the very big, nice,wonderful welcome… 
And purplebear, you are about to be attacked so have fun and please everyone take care of my purplebear when I am not here,she is a sweet lady and she is missing us already.
Welcome, rosebear!
You sure picked a great family to marry into-
Are you absolutely certain that you didn’t know about purplebear before you married her brother?
Because, I can see that having her for a SIL would be a BIG incentive to tie the knot!

<Looking around nervously, knowing how some of the dopers think, purplebear decides to sit by VB, so her buddy can protect her from these upcoming attacks>
I completely agree with you rosebear, I too want to see all. 
And, VB knows just how much I love cinnamon oil and 151.
I am missing you already. Snifff
Scotti, you’re such a sweet, gentle soul. Thank you. BLUSH
Hearing a sudden noise behind her, purplebear jumps nervously and slowly turns around…:eek:
Hi Hi rosebear!!
