To love me 😃 (Granted, there were a few rotten eggs, but who’s counting?) That’s right, this is my official 500th post party, thrown specifically for you. To the left, you will find chips, dips, and assorted crunchy vegetables. To the right, I have a keg o’ Hefeweizen, and all the lemons you can muster. Frosty mugs are in this here freezer. Use them as you wish, and don’t bother looking for coasters, I can’t bear the things. There is also red and white wine, of assorted levels of dryness. Bubbly is on ice for the ladies. The Barbecue grill is fired up and ready to cook. There’s a pool out back. The hot tub is hidden behind the little waterfall thing. No more than 6 at once, please. Pool tables and dartboards are in back, and NOBODY has sex on MY BED. ('cept me, of course. And a partner. I would never do that alone.) ---

techie snags a beer, grabs some BBQ ribs and sits next to the guest of honor. \< yelling in the house \> “Would you put on some tunes? We should be dancing!” \< giving directions to Cynical’s house for Demo and psy to stop by on their way west \> Good beer, time for another (love the smooth beers). ---

I’ve got Napster, and a cable modem in an underdeveloped area. Can you say MP3 in 10 seconds? Pick whatever you like, the stereo’s already hooked up to the PC. ---

Can’t you wait three more posts for some tequila, you grouchy old bastard?? 😉 Note: Since this won’t make sense when he posts again, Wally is currently at 2997 posts. ---

Nothing like a surplus of redheads (if there can be such a thing!) MrC, did you know there’s a new poster calling himself MrC? Your own troll, in honor of the occasion? ---

> [@](#): > > \*\* > There’s no tequila? > \*\* As I write this, Wally’s one post away from the big 3K. I take it they’ll be tequilla at HIS post party. No gerbils or other little cute little creatures, unless you count Amy. 😃 Put the damned gun down, I was just kidding. Congrats, Mr. Cynical! ---

Hey Falcon you don’t need to be drunk to come into the hot tub. And no offense Mr Cynical but when Wally clicks over I think people may leave to go to HIS party… (it’s only the absence of tequila really) ---

I’m just sick of these post parties being far more fun than any I go to in reality. ::sigh:: Flowing liquor ? Tons of great food ? Naked busty red-heads ?? Are Doper “conventions” like this IRL ?? **Damn.** Where do I sign up ?? Anyway, here’s some vodka - pass it around. Congrats Cyn ! 😃
