Hello! Back from Christmas with the folks… my personal update du jour: PattyCake will probably attend, unless work prevents her, but my boyfriend most likely won’t. I will attempt to wear him down, though.
soulsling, IIRC, you admonished me to wear pants to the summer NYC DopeFest. So don’t act surprised about the clothing issue. You know better.
In that same thread, I suggested we all wear antler hats so that we were readily recognizable. It was an idea that was snuffed aborning, I’m sorry to relate. I still think it’s a good idea, though.
OFFICIAL COUNTDOWN TO NYC DOPEFEST VI: PRANCING WITH THE PITIZENS
One Week, Four Days and counting
In today’s news update, the New York City dopefest has reached the unprecedented level of 50 expected attendees with the shift of PattyCake from a possible to a probable. We also might see the battered hulk of Rosebud’s near-lifeless boyfriend come crawling into the dopefest once Rosebud is through with her attempt to “wear him down.” (Note for Wonko the Sane: 50 expected attendees is the all your fingers, all your toes, all your fingers again, all your toes again, and all your fingers one more time.)
In other possible attendee news, lurkernomore’s brother has made an offhand comment that he might show up if he happens to be at work that day, he doesn’t get a better offer, there’s nothing good on television, and he doesn’t need to go home and alphabetize his T-shirt drawer. Coming up for air has descended back into the depths, expressing his regrets that he can’t make it.
The dopefest fashion committee has been meeting and has come to the conclusion that the official outfit shall be a black bow tie and a black thong. For those seeking a less formal look, the bow tie may be omitted. We will be looking for someone to bring a crowbar in order to detach Falcon from the thong-wearing crowds.
In addition, a New Jersey Devils hockey jersey is optional, but no responsibility will be taken if you run into anyone who has recently come down from the Garden’s nosebleed seats having consumed at least one giant-sized watered Budweiser for each time the ref called icing.
Meanwhile, DAVEW0071 seems to have missed the fact that we all politely ignored his suggestion that we should wear antler hats. SwimmingRiddles may still be in her holiday food coma, forgetting that on this board we don’t show off our ‘Fancy Pants’, but rather simply display our ‘Member’.
Well, you should be nice to bro, since it never hurts to have a cop in the party if trouble arises.
Also note, like me he is a Rangers fan, and encourgaed by the city to carry firearms, so do not lord the admitted superiority of your team over us. At best we will then remind everyone that in '94 when we won, it was the Canyon of Heroes, the route used by Lindbergh, Glenn, MacArthur. Your victory parades are literally around the parking lot in Secaucus.
Um…I could probably make an intelligent response to that if I knew more about hockey. However, I’m a newbie fan, so I’ll just stick out my tongue instead.
OK, here’s a quick translation. The Devils’ goalie, Martin Brodeur, is better than Olaf Kolzig, the Caps goalie.
The countries are some places he is from. His dad was a German citizen who worked for a hotel chain. He was born in S. Af (German citizen), grew up mostly in Canada, now plays in the US. Both are good, large goalies, Kolzig is even nicknamed Godzilla.
