Did I get your attention yet! It is my 1000th post party and I’m in the mood to party. Since the whole beer keg, nekkid people in the hot tub thing is getting a little old, I thought I would do something a little different… **A DISCO PARTY** That’s right folks! You thought disco was dead? Well, Shadowfox is bringing the stuff of your dreams (and nightmares) to reality. In the center of this room sits a massive lighted floor with a disco ball suspended from the ceiling. Surrounding the floor are a bunch of tables with chairs. In the corner sits the D.J., playing all those hits that you fondly remember. Waitresses in platform shoes serve your drinks. Bring out those tube tops and leisure suits and dance the night away! For my special guests, I have the VIP room reserved for you. Sitting in the corner is Andy Warhol and a young John Travolta. Leaning against the wall is the guys from the Bee Gees. I also see Mick Jagger in the other corner with his arm wrapped around a very pretty young thing. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Saint Zero \* > \*\*Where can we sacrifice Travolta to Chtulhu? 😃 \*\* In the parking lot. We don’t need any of that ritual sacrifice kind of thing at my party, unless it is a nubile virgin, preferably of the male persuasion. Maybe then I could make an exception to the rules. ---

Oh just great. I _knew_ I shouldn’t have given away my sparkly halter top and polyester pants to Good Will. And. Lnix, back away slooooowly from Barry. He’s mine, and I’m willing to fight for him. BTW, I hope it’s a younger Andy Warhol, too. Nothing like a corpse to put a damper on your party. Let’s Do the Hustle! ---

But I see your point. Okay, change of venue. Imagine a crystal clear lake set in the mountains. On the beach, I have set up a bonfire and a BBQ grill. Nekkidness is an option, but it might be a little cold. However, I have plenty of brandy which will soon make you forget just how cold it really is. Happy now? ---

Oh, and for you heathens, I’ve having a hot tub and a collection of erotic oils brought in too. ---
