Well, as mentioned before, there weren’t any Saturday plans until the last minute, so there was nothing to email. ---

EVERYONE loves **pezpunk**. Only half of us went to the theme park, and we got back to the hotel at almost 10. We didn’t hang around City Walk at all. Three of us were going on almost no sleep, so everyone went to bed pretty early. It was a tame Saturday night for a dopefest. ---

Oh dear. Look what I did. That wasn’t **Elessar** , it was me. ---

Quick impressions of a very nice weekend. Any similarities to depth or true insight are coincidental and should not be taken internally. **geobabe** is both geo and babe. (Hey, start with the easy ones, I always say.) **KatieKilldare** is likewise a babe, and shall henceforth be edited in my mind to **KatieKillbabe**. Katie also has the supreme good taste to like Llyod Cole (and to know the real name of his band–damn her). So she shall henceforth be edited in my dementia to **KatieKillDon’tGetWierdonMeBabe**. **ellisar** shall immediately change his screen name to **lucky dog** upon penalty of perjury. With due respect to **Geo** , **Katie** , and **Screech** , the most bodacious babe in attendance was Baby Ryan – I shall hear no arguments to the contrary. No, really, I can’t hear you . _La la la la la la la_ **Unclebill** has unfortunately lost the rights to the name **geostud** do to a distinctly unstudly rollercoaster reaction shot. The French judge rejects all intimations that her vote was cast inappropriately, and besides people were looking at her crossly. On the other hand, **uncleBill** sat as far from em as possible during dinner and at the other table for drinks afterward. This display of unsightly good sense makes him the front-runner for the “I’m to sensible for my crowd” award. Leaving an amusement park **before** puking only lends further support for this bizarre personality trait. I forgive him, though, because I watched a trailer for **The Incredible Hulk** directed by Ang Lee, and I am suddenly enthused about all people green. If I can find the appropriate Star Trek rerun, I shall approach nirvana. **screech owl** is not very screechy nor very owl. She does know more than any adult should about theme parks and amusement rides. That just has to be a good sign. She also has a stuffed Cthulu in her car, which I both covet and am afraid of. then again, she works for lawyers which perhaps explains everything. **elmwood** is a very nice guy. He didn’t deserve to be stranded alone on a Saturday night, but he was simply a victim of circumstances (and **Pat** , of course – more on that later). I turn out to have been a really bad choice as “central contact” for Saturday’s events, since I was off doing family stuff all day and never saw anybody else until I was about to crash for the night. Nothing personal, just plain old exhaustion. **Pat**. What can I say, **Pat** is simply cool. We all know this, yet it bears repeating. Not only is **Pat** the only reason I was able to connect with the rest of the gang ("Party for Cecil Adams? I dunno. Maybe they’re back with the other lower primates!), not only is **Pat** the catalyst who inspired the whole bloody get-together in the first place, not only is **Pat** an anagram for “apt” and “tap” and “pta” (Usage: It is apt to tap Pat but not to pat the pta.), not only does he switch smoothly from umbrella drinks to honest whiskey when the occassion demands, but he also functions admirable as a scapegoat. For instance:[ul][li]It’s **Pat’s** fault that I stayed up all night drinking Friday and got no rest before going to Seaworld.[/li][li]It’s **Pat’s** fault that **Katie’s** minibar resembled Egypt after the 7 plagues by about 6 AM Saturday.[/li][li]It’s **Pat’s** fault that **UncleBill** turned green and queasy despite not being party to the minibar swarm.[/li][li]It’s **Pat’s** fault that I ate 3.5 of the worst sausages ever to grace a room service platter, since he demonstrated that the only alternative was to eat 3 of the most undercooked slices of bacon ever to slide over and fall down on a plate.[/li][li]It’s **Pat’s** fault that nobody had the energy or willpower left to do anything on Saturday night. I’m old, but he’s young enough to know better.[/li][li]It’s **Pat’s** fault that I stayed up and sweated through and thus never experienced a hangover. Now I have no reason not to drink all night again at the earliest opportunity.[/li][li]It’s **Pat’s** fault that I’m still thinking abou the weekend instead of doing my work this afternoon. [/ul][/li] Thanks Pat. And thanks to everyone else. I had a blast. (Or I got blasted. Or both. Anyway, I have a big smile on my face just thinking about it.) ---
