I can’t speak for **Rysdad** or **Ethilrist** **MissTake** , but you hit the nail on the head. 😃 ---

How did I miss this? You take a few days away from the board, and you miss things. First, **chique** , was over at the house yesterday, spending time with **Spider Woman** , while I was at work. And today, I have the day off, only to find out about a DopeLunch, after it has taken place. WTF!! I gotta stop watching the war. I hope you all had fun, I’ll try to catch up with y’all when, and if, PorkDope II, becomes a reality. ---

I didn’t know lno was a local. Why wasn’t I notified of this? Did we know he hated us, and therfore kept it a secret from him? Was it part of the grand conspiracy against lno that I was sworn to secrecy about? ---

Raargh. I still hate you all. Well, not as much as before. Only eight days until miniPorkDope, after all. n’ **NurseCarmen** , I’m quite the local. I’m just despondent that everyone but me had fun today. ---

I didn’t get hurt this time. Sure was nice seeing all of you. ---

I had fun! Our end of the table actually discussed Imthjckaz and SpiderWoman, what nice people they are and how sad it is we only see them at PorkDope. We did also cover surgery as a combat sport and odd naming practices among males we know. It was great fun! ---

You all look as though you had a great lunch! Great piccies too! I don’t recognize any of you, so I guess that may be a good thing since nobody will have any dirt on me! The next time a gathering comes about I’ll try and for sure make it- O’Garas would be a fun place to meet! Thanks for sharing the fun! ---

Our end of the table actually discussed Imthjckaz and SpiderWoman, what nice people they are and how sad it is we only see them at PorkDope. \*\* Sure you did. You guys probably wanted to start a fire somewhere, and needed somebody to go gather firewood, and that’s when our names came up. Yeah, that’s it. 😉 ---

It’s on June 7th. **lno** and **chique** , keep yer eyes peeled, too. **Rysdad** , you don’t have an e-mail address… Send me one so I can send you the invite?
