Thursday 175...There ain't no cure for the summertime blues!

[lbaker]

"...Mario in a little grass skirt" OH look at that little monkey go. No, wait.. didn't Howard Cosell get fired for saying that? ahhh, but he was referring to a football player. Mario, don't wear shoulder pads with the grass skirt please. Don't know that I would care for a blue drink but Hawaii puts me in the South Pacific frame of mind so ... badahboom... "Bloody Mary Is The Girl For Me.." Let's keep it one like Slick will appreciate, Bloody with a prawn and some of those nasty olives she likes so much *sorry, but yuk on olives* Hawaiian food... I'll see if I can get inspired here. I love a food challenge

[Lady's Human]

Laurie, How's about a pig roast?

I'll get the pit started!

Orc, come on, we need some firewood out here, and I ain't diggin this hole by myself.

I'll help you dig...

Again, two strange things that happened to me today..On the way to work this morning I came up upon a truck with live pigs on the Golden State Freeway.

I was in my brother's truck, On the way home I pushed the tape into the deck and "when the levee breaks" was the song that came on...


We can do the cadence as we dig!

One helping hand? DONE!


LB,
one food challenge?
DONE!


Redd,

Tea?
I have never partied with a Ho before!

DONE!

Slick.

A chi chi for you...

More palm trees out that way!

DONE!


KK,
A blue Hawaii for you! DONE!

Okey dokey smokey... speaking of smokey, those are some fine coals you guys have going in that fire pit! Let's not do the whole piggy thing, Richard, leave those freeway pigs alone - that's rather ooky looking if you ask me But a nice braised pork roast with cinnamon, clove and toasted corriander sounds nice aaaaand I just happen to have one I've been braising since yesterday. Taro root is a bit hard to find around here but sweet taters (or yams if you wish) make a nice substitute as a side dish. OK, that's for later on - actually have *shudders* work to do this a.m. Good thing I started the food last night. Strong coffee and some fresh melon for breakfast if you please ~ anybody?? Anyone else awake??

[Randi]

I'm awake Laurie (a good thing you mentioned food, I must go and find something in the freezer - right now!)

I'll try any blue drink you can mix for me, but first .... I'll take a cup of coffee.

Starting a new temp job on monday, so I better party while I can.

A big cheers to Slick's good results!!

[slick]

**yaaaaaawwwwn** **streeeeetttccchhhhh**

I'm awake...sort of.....
My body is protesting, my eyes are covered with sleeps and even Max is still in bed. I hate these 6:30 mornings. I have to leave here at 8 for my doc's appointment.

So, how about a Spanish Coffee to start of my day. Now that sounds pretty good. I have not made any Baileys for you in a while so will get to that later today.

**walks away singing** This little piggy went to market, this little piggy stayed home.......

[Corinna]

Good morning all, How about a nice warm cup of tea it's a bit chilly here only 47 degrees. I brought some scones and jam for those digging that great pit.
Good luck at the doc's Slick hoping for more good news.

I think I'm going to avoid any of the costume humor to night .got sent home from work .I have a touch of the flu. They said I had a lovely shade of green. Feeling better after 5 hours sleep . Is that pig done yet?

[Lady'sOtherHuman]

Thanks Richard,
When it happend the first time Dad was in OK and he laughed his butt off! Now he's home so the kids think they have their human jungle gym back, lol.

How about some nice muffins and coffee this morning!

What are you guys wearing? LH, put your eyes back in your head it's not that bad is it?

[Edwina's Secretary]

I have never partied with a Ho before!

Gosah RICHARD...that is not what it says on the washroom wall!!!

[VTJess03]

May I please have a big glass of something strong and fruity? It's been a long week already, and doesn't seem likely to get any shorter. A beer just isn't going to cut it today.

Toasted marshmallows are a great idea, but only if they're Jet-Puffed (far superior to any other brand ) Maybe I'll even spring for Hershey's bars and graham crackers.

[critter crazy]

Oooooo....SMORES!!!!!! I love Smores, i am drooling just thinking about it!!

[Lady's Human]

I'm ducking......teh last time we had smores in here it got a little messy.....


I think Orc and I are going to go hide in the L+F
