> [@](#): > > Am I missing anyone? Ahem. Turns out my company picnic is on the same day, but by 2 o’clock, it’s usually pretty dull, so I’ll be arriving a tad late, if that’s alright. I can bring a couple of cases of pop. ---

Cool. Auggie’s got pop. ( A quick check of the Canuck/English dictionary reveals that he’ll be bringing soda. Cool.) ---

I can go to the bread thrift store and get el crapload du buns for el cheapo dinero. (And el cheapo dinner-o.) I assume you need hot dog AND hamburger buns? Do you prefer them with or without sesame seeds? ---

I like them with sesame seeds, and the guy around here likes them without. Whatever you decide will be fine. I’ll be making potato salad. Woot. ---

We’ll bring either a pasta salad or a three-bean salad… or maybe both. It depends on how much time we have before we head down. ---

Do you guys need things like paper plates, napkins, cups, etc.? We can get those pretty cheap at the commissary. ---

lol…We’ll see if we can find it, **Dave**. They don’t always have it at the class six, though. So, we’ll bring the paper goods and plastic utensils, okay? ---

Shoot…I AM in Philly for the summer and wanted to come to this. Sadly, I’m previously committed to a bachelor party that night. Ah, well…consider me there in spirit. ---

Okay, my status for attending the party is a possible maybe. I need someone to switch shifts with me so I can attend and he’s still thinking about it. He’s never done it in the past but there’s a first time for everything. ---

Plenty of time to get back home for cigars, booze and lesbian strippers. ---

I would just like to state for the record that I would never post about lesbian strippers. Or cigars. So. For sure coming: **Hama, Tark & Co iampunha Aguecheek & Mrs. RTFirefly & Mrs. Geobabe UncleBill Lucretia, Bluesman, & Co. Wendell Wagner Verrain True Pisces Asylum Tranquilis & Mrs. ResIpsaLoquitor** - if he’s got time before the party Am I missing anyone? Does anyone have any specific dietary requirements or allergies? Also, does anyone have any outdoors type games that can be put to use? We will likely also need a few lawn chairs, if it’s not a bother.
