> [@UncleBill](#): > > _The Official List Of Rules For Qualification For The Smallest DopeFest Ever (Edition 7)_, page 93, clearly states that I am afraid unless this meeting meets these three mandatory conditions, it does not qualify. Even if it does meet all three, it is merely a tie. The Board Search function cannot find it, but the MiamiDope of 2002 (?) was only two, as well. Okay – not the first, but **danceswithcats** and I met all the qualifications (he lives out near Harrisburg somewhere). Woohoo! **turns to high-five danceswithcats, who, of course, isn’t reading this thread…** ---

> [@TiggrKitty](#): > > So where are the pictures at then? huh? If it was a dopefest you had to take pictures! OK, fine…it wasn’t technically a Dopefest without pictures. So new Dopefest will be happening in the next couple of weeks. With pictures. Also **AngelicGemma** has asked to join the coveted ranks of the Brat Pack. So not only will it be a dopefest, but also an initiation. BWAHAHAHAHA! :eek: ---

_Makes mental note to destroy all cameras in Lincoln._ I shouldn’t have to do an initiation anyway. You asked _me_ to join. 😛 ---

Is that the initiation with the pouring of the strawberry icecream down her top? And if it isn’t can I do that one? 😛 ---

Strawberry ice cream? As if I would ever go so low! If ice cream is going down my top, it will of course be _chocolate_ ice cream. Strawberry ice cream? What kind of a girl do you think I am?! 😃 ---

Does that mean once I’m a paying member(in 1 week’s time 🙂 ) I will definitely get the privilege of this? ---

Well, I am announcing a virtual _reality_ Dopefest for this weekend. Everyone who wishes to attend please meet in LaLa-Land tonight at 7pm. I will be catering. There will be chocolate-covered grasshoppers, snake-on-a-stick, and meat ice cream shakes. For the vegetarians I will have several selections of deep fried Redwood tree roots and Koa tree Parmisian. There will also be Venus Fly Trap fricasee, but I don’t know if that counts as vegetarian. Be sure you are wearing your tinfoil hat for best telepathic reception (it also doubles as a blocker for government mind controlling radio frequencies). ---
