Thursday #21

[slick]

A blonde had just totaled her car in a horrific accident.
Miraculously, she managed to pry herself from the wreckage without a scratch and was applying fresh lipstick when the state trooper arrived. "My God!" the trooper gasped. "Your car looks like an accordion that was stomped on by an elephant. Are you OK ma'am?". "Why, yes, officer, I'm just fine" the blonde chirped. "Well, how in the world did this happen?" the officer asked as he surveyed the wrecked car. "Officer, it was the strangest thing!" the blonde began. "I was driving along this road when from out of nowhere this TREE pops up in front of me. So I swerved to the right, and there was another tree! I swerved to the left and there was ANOTHER tree! I swerved to the right and there was another tree! I swerved to the left and there was...." "Uh, ma'am, 'the officer said, cutting her off, "There isn't a tree on this road for 30 miles. That was your air freshener swinging back and forth."

Bada bing, bada boom!! And Yes, I'm blonde.

That's the great thing about cyber-drinking - no BAC

I call the color "silver" but the brochure calls it "platinum"

slick - I'm not a blonde but thanks for the joke

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Catland - yes, my first time. I thought this was a family site and had no idea there's was all this drinking and partying going on. See what you did, was you hid it in the Doghouse section. I don't go to the doghouse that often 'cause I'm not up for arguments and defending my point of view these days - just brings me down and I've got too much other stuff to worry about, so I had no idea! I thought all the references to Richard being the bartender were just because of the CA gathering. Now I know better. And #21, does this mean this has been going on for 21 weeks now!

Subaru Forester - cool - I almost got one of those before I got my Tracker but it couldn't be towed behind the motorhome.

Bloody Mary sounds really good! Haven't had one of those in years! My old boss used to make really really good ones.....but....beer and pizza sounds yummy too. Slick, got a slice left over for me?

[catland]

T&P - the good news is, it is a family site. We card the minors and they don't get alcohol, not even the cyber kind

[slick]

Debbie: Yup, 21 weeks worth of partying and goings-on. Now that you know, you can join us every week. Each week has a different theme and Richard is the bartender extrordinair. We occasionally like to throw things up in the rafters but that's only the rowdy ones.

I affectionately call this Dick's Place. Where everybody knows your name.....

Lots of pizza left over. Come on down....

BTW Richard here's a story you can rib me about:
Was getting dressed this morning (Casual day) put on my shorts and T-shirt then both socks. Put on right running shoe then looked all over for my other sock, until I discovered I'd already put it on. As soon as I discovered it, I laughed so hard and thought of you laughing too

another good thing is that with people dropping in from all different time zones the party can start early and last alllll night (as long as we don't slip under the pool table or fall asleep on the juke-box)

Oops, been there, done that. But I was a lot younger then.

And Slick, too funny! I've done that before too, but can't think of any specific examples right now. Been working on my programming class all afternoon. Got a logic error that I can't for the life of me figure out, and my brain is fried.

Which seems like the perfect excuse to say "I'll have another margarita there please, Richard." Thank you very much!

Oh, all these margaritas reminds me of a story....
I had a single girlfriend a few years back who owned her own home. We were out for the evening had just under one too many margaritas - with Cuervo no less. When we got back to her place we discovered the furnace was out. So here we are, the two of us with no idea how to light the pilot light on a furnace (and yes, it was an older one that still had a pilot light), and no one to call since it's was rather late in the evening.

So she leans into the furnace with her long hair hanging down, trying to figure it out how to light the thing! I had enough presence of mind to at least grab her hair and hold it back so if she did figure it out her hair wouldn't go up in flames as she got the furnace lit. It was a lot of stumbling and bumbling, but at least we got it lit without her hair or the house going up in flames. Aaaa....the gold old days.

We don't see each other too often anymore because she moved to AZ, but we still talk about and laugh about that night, and say we should do it again sometime. Oh, do the margaritas again, not the lighting the furnace.

Oh, and now that I've discovered this weekly party, you won't be able to get rid of me.

[RICHARD]

We don't want to get rid of you. As far as we are concerned you are here to stay. Make sure you invite lots of friends. The more the merrier and start thinking about some themes for next week. Usually someone starts a Thursday thread on Wednesday's and gets everyone pumped up. Party on Deb!!

Boy! This place called Thursdays sure is a rowdy bunch!!!

Jose Cuervo, you are a friend of mine
I like to drink you with a little salt and lime
Did I kiss all the cowboys? Did I shoot out the lights?
Did I dance on the bar? Did I start any fights?
