Final Supper For Johnny L.A.

As you know from this thread, Johnny didn’t get the job so he’ll be leaving CA for greener valleys in WA.

Seems more like planning a wake (does anyone have a coffin they would be willing to donate? :wink: ) but we must do something to send him off with good wishes.

Let’s meet at Ye Olde Kings Head on Saturday, November 15, 2003 at 4:00 pm.

Who’s in?

:sniff: :sniff:

I’m in! :slight_smile:

I don’t know Johnny (Well, maybe I do) and I live in Seattle, so I can’t make it, but seeing Ye Olde King’s Head site made me smile. My son was a regular there. I learned to play darts there.

We’re in, too! It’s already calendared. We wouldn’t miss it for the world (though we’re very sad about the reason for the gathering :frowning: )

Me too! :frowning:

Me three! :frowning: :stuck_out_tongue:

Melin, Highlander and Wrenchr plan to be there. :slight_smile:

ARRRGH! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
@16:20 (Pilot talk so Johnny will understand) that afternoon I get on an airplane for DC. About the time you guys are eating fish and chips I will be over the middle of the country having finished my rubber chicken or whatever the road kill de jour is.

I don’t suppose that you might consider a date change? I am in town on the 22nd.

Failing that, Johnny can we get together in Seattle area? I get up there once a month or so.

Safe journey to Johnny from his neighbor to the east.

I still remember the cute pics of him as a little kid.

Groveling! How did you know I have a hard time passing up groveling!?!?!?!

Since we’re in the early planning stages I’ll say a date change is ok by me. But, Johnny’s schedule looked pretty full so it’s up to him…

Kathy

Johnny, so how do you react to groveling?

If it is any help I can probably swing an airline ticket for you if you need to get back and forth during the move. Let me know.

Wot? You men these? :smiley:

Hm. Dates are a bit tough. Melin is out of town on the 8th, so she wouldn’t be able to make it then. On the 22nd I may well be on the road north! How about Friday the 15th?

Thanks for the offer, Rick. I’ll need to bring my Cherokee back down with me though, so I can haul up the next load. (I figure I have two trailer loads, plus I’ll need to get the motorcycles up.)

“Mean”. Not “men”.

Damn…Friday’s out for me, and since I’m needed to drive cadolphin

It’ll have to be Saturday. Sorry, Rick.

::: Sigh:::
OK then, if you are going to have it on the 16th, people will have to post lots of pictures. :slight_smile:

BTW for those keeping score of who is coming, I go by Wrenchr on Fathom so scratch me off the list.

Damn, that is what I get for saving the company $1800 in airfare.

You know, I realized that a while after I posted. :o

I guess that I’ll just have to get a good job up in Washington and fly down for a future Dopefest. :slight_smile:

Oh yes, and since this IS the Last Supper, are we limiting this to 12 guests plus Johnny?

And who are we hiring to paint the mural?

And just where did we put that handbasket?

How many kangaroos will there be in the painting?

All right, if it’s still on Saturday, I will be there, too!

[sub]Yay! I’ve been jonesing for a Fest.[/sub]

Looks like Saturday, November 15th.

[sub]Just wanted to make it clear it’s not this Saturday. :wink: [/sub]
