Reunions and homecoming is the perfect theme for Thursdays this week! I'll be going back to Purdue University to homecoming this weekend, and I'm looking forward to it. I really miss being at university sometimes, so it's nice to get back and walk around the campus and take part in homecoming festivities.

One Mai Tai please!

**hugs**

I love Mai Tais and deep fried turkeys, so, I'm in for this week's thursday reunion. I had fun at my high school reunion, although I didn't enjoy high school that much until my last two years! I'm not wearing what I wore in high school, though. Nope. I hope you all are having a good day, though, just thought I'd throw that out there! I will toast to my teachers, though, in accordance with the theme this Thursday.

[lbaker]

The Homecoming Queen eh? Someone who has yet to show up.. hmmmm, could be her, or maybe that one Let's see, whoever comes in the door and causes everyone to yell OH HAIL!! must be Queen for a day. Mario makes a regal King and we can place bets on who gets to be the court jester another MaiTai m'Lord of the bar please

Oh Hail, Oh Hail!!!!

Ok, ok, my faithful subjects, you may rise now. No need to grovel, you'll all get served whether I'm here or not.

Yes, it was me that mentioned the reunion, although....I've been called a "broad" before, but....what's a "bord"? Oh wait, that's what my brothers always told me my chest resembled.

Had a good time at the reunion. About 10:30 pm Terry says, so is there anybody else you want to talk to? I said "Nope, never talked to them in high school, why start now?" So we left.

I'll take a Mai Tai, but can we make it not taste like coconut? If not, just give me a good ol' slushie.

Levis big bells were my jean of choice in high school. Hip huggers they were called then - not low rise - what the heck is with this low rise anyway?

Mario, you are so adorable in your little crown! Are those cherries in it instead of rubies?

[DJFyrewolf36]

Cripes this thread makes me feel O-L-D lol!

I graduated HS in 2000...I'm not really looking forward to my 10 year reunion only because the people I would talk to...I already hang out with. There were some good people and of course there were some real cretins too. Oh well, I'll show up anyway...married and a whole heck of a lot thinner lol.

I'll take a DOTD, I love Mai Tais....its one of my favorites! Oh, and I can't forget the CNTs and could you come up with a little treat for my ratties? They're feeling a little left out.

Mario, you're just too darn cute in that crown! May I share a dance with you?

[Killearn Kitties]

All Hail Debbie!!!!!

Cheer up sleepy Jean
Oh what can it mean
To a-a daydream believer
and a homecoming que-e-e-n

You are much braver than I am. I have never gone to a reunion. I always felt that if I had wanted to stay in touch, then I would have.

OMG hip huggers? Were they flared?

I'll take a Mai Tai please barman. Never had one before.

A reunion story?

I went to my reunion and I saw the gal that "I never talked to".

Our eyes met thru the crowd and we kept stealing glances at each other during the 'cocktail hour'...Got a chance to see her from behind (I was gonna say the "rear" but I know I'd get ridiculed for that....)

Great looking woman, she had a nice figure and a great dress on, I did catch her profile..and that was impressive too!

We were starting to circulate and I noticed that we were kinda moving in each other's direction.

Then we were about 15 feet away from each other when the crowd parted and I got a chance to see her from the neck down.

Cleavage isn't EVERYTHING but what caught my eye was she had spilled something on her breast...

I looked again and I thought MELANOMA (Skin cancer).

Nope, SC don't appear in a pattern like that...

This poor gal had decided to put a tattoo over one breast. It was a REAL BAD TATTOO. If it was any other color besides the dark blue color, it would have been tragic.

I think it was a flower, a rose to be more exact.....Cocktail hour ended before I could find out exactly what it was. I just didn't trust myself to keep my eyes above "board".....

I did feel sorry for her, She was still a nice looking gal-but that bad tattoo, and the dress she had on that emphasized it just ruined it.....

[catland]

I'm not a big reunion person myself. I tried my 10 and 20, but I didn't have a big circle of friends back then and turns out that the ones that were my friends aren't the reunion type either.

But Mai-Tai's - that's a whole different story. I was in Hawaii in 2002 and we went on a "booze cruise" - a boat that spends a few hours on the ocean while we spend a few hours with unlimited mai-tai's.

(we finished the cruise and got on our red-eye flight back to the mainland - big mistake )

[Barbara]

You are much braver than I am. I have never gone to a reunion. I always felt that if I had wanted to stay in touch, then I would have.

I second, third an fourth that (I get an invitation every year but I never go).

Bell Bottoms: We even opened the seams of some shorter narrower jeans and sewed some extra cloth in. My first real ones were some grey corduroy Levi's.
