The Vatican named him Honorary Priest for a day, and swinging by to pick up George Michael on the way.

Look at my butt!

Ukulele Ike is right, there’s more to SqrlCub than his sexual preference. Let me hereby revise my answer.

He’s been hired as a consultant by Disney Corp. to help plan [The Gay Days at Disney](http://www.gaycruisevacations.com/gaydays2000.html). Their tentative motto: “The gayest place on Earth.”  
Disney Studios, as part of the release of Fantasia 2000, is attempting to increase knowledge of classical music in the american public. Since in a future version of the ongoing project of “Fantasia”, they will animate Scriabin’s “Poem of Ecstasy”, they are hiring consultants to help devise muzak versions of that and Scriabin’s sonatas to be played continuously whilst waiting in the buffet line at the restaurants of their amusement parks and cruise ships. The experiment will be inaugurated during the Gay Days of Disney.

Ahhhhh, Disney’s come late to the party AGAIN. I was just listening to the muzak version of the “Black Mass” piano sonata on the elevator, comin’ back from lunch.

So far, I vote for manhattan and his AsnerCon as the best entry. And I’m NOT just kissing moderator ass.

By the way… he’s in Phoenix for work.

Now, how about a new round guessing what he does for a living?

Uke, I’ll make you a deal. I go with you to Asnercon, and you come with me to a Star Trek convention. (though manhattan’s post _was_ pretty funny)

Git’cher last suggestions in for Sqrl’s road trip memoirs; I’m gonna start writin’ the adventures of Ed ‘Bullwinkle’ Asner and Rocket J. SqrlCub tomorrow. I’ll probably post the tales of woe and ecstasy Saturday afternoon.

Well…okay. But only if I can dress up as Ed Asner dressed up as an alien.

Obviously Uke, you mean that costume you wore in Chicago. Giving everyone a rectal probe was the pièce de résistance, though.

Hello, this is Sqrl’s boyfriend…two of you were close. He did go to the Ed Asner convention. Unfortunately, I flew out to surpirse him and found him feltching Ed. Now Sqrl is buried in the back yard instead of just his nuts. :)-

Hey there everyone,

I just got back from Phoenix and saw this thread. Heheheheh. A whole thread devoted to me. I am awaiting my travel journal. 😉

HUGS!

Popping this back to the top to remind Uncle Beer of his commitment to post Sqrl’s travel diary. (Now that I think about it, it might be intriguing for **Sqrl** to post his **real** travel diary!) 🙂

I have a C&P’d mess right now; all I need to do is organize into a series of coherent, or maybe incoherent, events. If I’d quit posting, that’d probably speed things up a bit.

It would be highly offensive for me to remind Uncle Beer about his commitment to judge this thread and post his “Squirrel’s travel diary” and I would never do anything like that. 🙂

So I’ll just kick this thread to the top in hopes that seeing its title he’ll remember. 😉
