Just thought I would throw a welcome to the board party for all the recent newcomers and introduce my friend _ **kahn** _ to you all. He has decided to join our merry band.

Welcome Kahn! Any friend of PCW is…well… a friend of PCW! ::ducking::

My usual advice is to warn people about PCW, but since you already know… Have fun, don’t take it too seriously and no, there will not be another party until you hit 100. 😉

Hey PCW, got a blender ? I brought my own stuff for marqueritas. Mind if I set up in the kitchen ? Cool !

OK we got regular, strawberry, and raspberry. Who wants what ?

HEY! I hate to be fussy, but get all of yer half clothed asses back to my NAKED party! If there’s no-one there, it makes me look like just another creepy naked guy! BTW, PCW, the masseuse is crying his eyes out what did you say to him!?!

Okay, okay, quit nagging.  
Clear some room, everyone, it’s time for our first game.  
What?  
No, it’s not coed naked volleyball, no it’s not truth or dare, what are you 12?  
It’s  
**Strip Twister!!!**  
See, I’ve modified the spin board so it tells you an article to remove as well as a hand/foot/body part to put where.  
If we start to have a really good time, I’ll break out the other spinner, and that one…  
Whoa, baby!
