<p>Here. Quickly. Intravenous soju from Shanghai.</p>
<p>Now sit. Have some boiled peanuts. Think to yourself, well, at least it’s not Shanghai. Which is surreal. Kind of Mies van der Rohe meets Pokemun…as I have probably said before. Just imagine miles and miles of bronzed glass in anthropomorphic shapes, glimmering through the soot and pollution. And no elections. At all.</p>
<p>joining you berurah, and pour me a double of that one since S just announced yesterday that he now plans to graduate in December 07 (one year!) instead of May 09. From college. Did the grad check and all that. It’s possible thanks to AP and CC course work done in h.s. and the fact that last year’s triple major fantasy has morphed into one major nearly done reality. Wants to work on an 08 campaign of something or other. My head is reeling. My bank account is quietly gasping with unforseen and hitherto unexperienced hopefulness.</p>
<p>Alu…<em>THANK YOU</em> I <em>LOVE</em> the feel of the IV stuff…warmth spreading throughout my stressed body, every muscle soothed and relaxed…ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh…now, where’s that hot tub??? ;)</p>
<p>momof2inca!!! OMG, a college GRAD w/in a YEAR??? <em>I’m</em> doing the pouring for you…my pleasure, now that Alu’s got me so relaxed. And my bank account is jealous of yours! :D</p>
<p>Yuk. Ptooey. All fairy tales and Fred Astaire movies aside, good champagne shoud be drunk from a nice Riedel champagne flute. Now nasty, rot-gut cheapie bubbly (Frexinet and that stuff) can be consumed from a smelly ol’ shoe and it would probably improve the stuff. :)</p>
<p>And p2n, if you buy that big ol’ RV motorhome thing, I’ll be happy to look up the local campgrounds on the edge of town for you if you pass through our fair city. Actually, better idea. Maybe you could park it in front of the house of that old crabby former neighbor. I’m sure he’ll share the reading materials sent to him–probably has a nice supply of those raunchy catalogs by now :)</p>
<p>(sidebar to p2n— let roro know that <em>we</em> know the dfc between a typo and a spelling error, eh?)</p>
<p>New topic: gardening! and why I can NEVER (like for 3 years in a row) remember where the heck the tulips came up so I can separate them and maybe next year they’ll BLOOM instead of just making lots of pretty greenery. </p>
<p>Yeah, oops. Such a pretty day, I got out and transplanted a couple of things that were in bad spots–too shady, not enough room, then I remembered the tulips. And remembered that once again this year I forgot to put sticks in the ground or something so I could find them in the fall. </p>
<p>Well, there’s always next year, as baseball players and gardeners tend to say…</p>
<p>What I need is an iced tea! Last one of the season, probably.</p>
<p>driver popped in to the Bourbon thread, no surprise. Says she’s more fkin annoyed* than usual so we better get a line of double shots ready.</p>
<p>Sure wish you girls would come down and wallow in the political threads sometimes. Throw a bit of first rate wit and humour into the mix for the liberal cause!</p>
<p>cheers, I stopped in for a bit but it didn’t do much for my mood. No point in arguing politics with witless wonders (and I mean that in both senses of wit.) :o</p>
<p>What? Did I screw up some speling againe? Drats! Pleeze don’t thimnk I cant spel!</p>
<p>Don’t know what got into me today. I was all fired up for politics. Is it a full moon? He**, it could be hormones! Wait - it could be pheromones! Are there women in here? Who’s secreting?</p>
<p>Who’s pouring? Who has new shoes? Who has washed her feet - this week?</p>
<p>Where the heck is driver? Kluge is going crazy out there. :eek: He needs her.</p>
<p>Never mind - I’m just in a good mood. :)</p>
<p>btw - a very good, inexpensive champagne is Gloria Ferrer (CA) - for about $14 a bottle.</p>
Last of the season?!?! Good heavens, girl, don’t let popular culture dictate whether you make iced tea all winter or not! I say keep it pouring! (But not sweet for me, thanks.)</p>
<p>Time to be a wine snob for a minute-- thats not “champagne” - its sparkling wine. Only the stuff made in the Champagne region of France is Champagne. But, I 'm sure its darned good
OK-- back to your regularly scheduled silliness <<<slinks out=“” of=“” the=“” bar…=“”>>></slinks></p>
I think Driver should pull a Lysistrata on them. I believe they have just hounded fountainsiren out of the locker room. It’s looking like a same-sex orgy in those political threads and I am certain that without their nemesis they will soon grow bored with the montonous masturbatory circle of engagment.</p>
