There's a party goin' on! DC/MD/VA/WV/PA/NC 6/28/03

Maybe then you just shouldn’t wrestling in the yard! Or that’ll teach you to pick on someone bigger then you.

JC I have to say that the road I went home on was one of the scariest roads I have ever ridden on. I saw no less then three deers on the way home, and deers and motorcycles do not mix.

I now own a good 10 packs of cards, and I don’t play cards at all. I will have to remember to bring more so that I do not end up with another 4 packs.

I should also not be listening to Mary Prankster at work, she has a worse mouth then I do.

As usual JC a good party, looking forward to the next one.

Let me just chime in and thank the ChanceClan for such a great time - and I agree with whomever pointed out Mrs. Chance’s voodoo child abilities, my monster had a great time!

Thanks to all the grownups who let him play volleyball, too!

The Woozle is safe and sound back in Boston, and told me to say hi to everyone, and thanks, and yay! and other monosyllabics (I think she’s still drunk).

I can’t even list all the cool people I met - but you know who you are, and I’m glad to know you!

JC/Opal, I have photos but no website pout - can I send them to one of you for posting somewhere?

Anna

Send them to either of us. Lady Chance is still working on her pix (she filled up the cards on her camera).

You got it. I have to get them from Rich (my friend who showed up totally at random).

Good news, some of them feature my butt!

Gotta like that.

Frankly, I’m all about your butt.

And notice that I wore the hat all day.

PLEASE anyone else who has pictures send them to opalcat@fathom.org and I will add them to the album.

This goes for ANY DOPEFEST PICTURES from ANY DOPEFEST. (The big album-o-albums is here: http://fff.fathom.org/photorama/index.cgi?mode=album&album=/Parties%20and%20Gatherings )

Doh! I really need that glass…it takes forever to get a buzz goin’ if I’m drinking beer from Lucretia’s navel. I’ll gladly pay whatever it takes for you to send it along, JC.

And the fact that I forgot it reflects only on my tiredness and absent-mindedness, not on how much I liked it.

I thought it reflected the amount of use you put it to.

You also forgot the 1/2 gallon of applejack. How illegal do you think it is to ship that through the mail?

Gah! I need that too! Hmm, we may have to come up with a scheme to lure you guys off that mountain with pint glass and apple jack in tow.

I’d do it at the commissioning except that we’re out of town that weekend for our 10th anniversary.

You’ll note that Lucretia didn’t forget the two bottles of wine I gave her as a going away present.

Good thing she’s the one with the 0-1 designation, isn’t it?

***Newsflash!!!***My pal Everett tells me that he got stopped by a DWI checkpoint just south of our house about 10PM the night of the party!

Did anyone get nabbed?

It’s clear that they did it just because of our party.

I feel so special.

Since I think myself unphotogenic, I personally dig the fact that every photo I happen to be in (four total) features a very good shot of the back or side of my head.

As I did not consume anything with alcohol, I was not “stopped” per se, but they did ask me if I’d consumed anything. When I said “no sir” the guy said “none at all?” and I said “no” or “none” or summat like that and he told me to proceed on my merry way.

This was at around midnight and a quarter or midnight 30 or so.

So we know they were there for at least 2+ hours.

I’m suspicious.

They were gone by the time we finally threw ourselves out the door. When did we leave, JC, like 2:30am? I’m surprised you didn’t throw us out. You were falling asleep on the couch…

See, next time we need to get the ERS game going sooner, so this doesn’t happen again.

AND NO MORE PINOCHLE DECKS!

I can’t help it if someone can’t read the BIG frickin, Pinochle written on the deck of cards. Maybe whoever opened the cards could read we wouldn’t of had that problem.

Wasn’t me :stuck_out_tongue:

Well we did get that nifty Free West Virginia Wal-Mart Adventure out of the deal, so that maybe makes up for it. Watching someone write a check for 20 minutes has always topped my list of fun things to do on a Saturday night.

Well if it wasn’t you it must have been cracker girl. As punishment I suggest more crackers.

But don’t you know that Waltmart is the happening place on a Saturday night. Next time I’ll bring the decks, and they will be full of 4s and 5s.

More crackers are indeed indicated. You want to hold or smoosh?

I just gotta say thanks to the Chance clan for throwing another kick arse party. I had a wunnerful time!

But I have to say Airman Doors makes the worst Philly Cheesesteaks ever.

I tease! I tease! Stop lookin’ at me like that!
