Off-Topic 11/21/08 Travel Edition

Today pdb heads to Ohio through Indiana to see his wife.

NOLA should be nearing the end of her journey from Louisiana to the great Northwest.

Faux has been on the road a lot lately, but I'm not sure if he is back home yet or not.

Who will be traveling for Thanksgiving next week?

A few of the Off-Topic regulars will be traveling to the Renton Highlands tonight for bowling and socializing.

Other topics:

Thank God that Scholarship Poll is over.  I hate seeing the worst in people and that showed it.  Kudos to Dave for staying above the fray and showing what a great person he is.

How the hell did my roll of toilet paper make it out of the plant with no perforation?

So Thingray was finally outed by deapseadv.  Good sleuthing Kermit.

Is the world ending soon now that Coach had a comment go green?

I'll be travelling up to Stuttgart for Thanksgiving

to spend it with an Army buddy. We’ll likely spend the rest of the weekend stumbling drunk in Munich, hooray!!

Tonight the bowling theme is The Price is Right.

Two in the Plinko, one in the stinko.

Screw you, Mariners. I'm back in football's loving arms. *edit: well, shit. This isn't going well.

Wow...anyone around?

Or is it just that no one wants to respond to a diary posted by a noted ex-member of the Hitler Youth?
Sec 108’s first band in high-school played up-tempo versions of Horst Wessel Lied and other nazi anthems… I believe they were called PanzerFaust or something. I’m not making this up; I read about it once.

I'm here - bouncing between work, LL, and MC.

Screw you, Mariners. I'm back in football's loving arms. *edit: well, shit. This isn't going well.

The band name was actually Barking Aardvarks

marc w is just pissed because we refused to hang with a kid who had a hair lip and constant nasal drip.

Yeah, they kept saying I was impure

and would pollute the race.

No hard feelings, pal.

by marc w on Nov 21, 2008 9:29 AM PST to parent up   0 recs

No worries, Marc.

Someday you may be asked to portray Johnny Cash in a film.

So when I show up at her place and she's still in curlers, I'm holding you responsible.

Like it’s anyone’s fault my memory has more holes than Sexon’s swing. My search techniques suck, I know I brought it up a couple days ago.

Wow, nice timing I was just heading out the door.

I had to wait for the kids to do some business or I would have been there by now. Sorry to hear you’re sick.

by dpseadv on Nov 21, 2008 10:05 AM PST to parent up   0 recs

You had better be there tonight.

Screw you, Mariners. I'm back in football's loving arms. *edit: well, shit. This isn't going well.

I understand being sick,

but I hope you can make it tonight as well RC. I’m sure Jeanuts would like to meet you.

Man do I love midgets.

by Thingray on Nov 21, 2008 10:17 AM PST to parent up   0 recs

I'll be there, for a little while.

No carousing or drinking for me, but I will get some hugs in for sure.

by royalcurve on Nov 21, 2008 10:18 AM PST to parent up   0 recs

But I'm just getting over being sick.

Can I have a week or so of good health first? I actually slept through the night for the first time in weeks last night. No 1:00am coughing fit!

Man do I love midgets.

Take a bath in Purell

That's good to hear

I’m getting caught up and saw that you were ill and I was concerned that you wouldn’t make it. See you there

No problemo, I should have been there last week.

Something held me up then, I think it was a combination of things. I was on the road, actually bought you the americano, then realized it was too close to nap time and I was just being stubborn.

by dpseadv on Nov 21, 2008 10:11 AM PST to parent up   0 recs

So, anyone care to beat this for freakiness?

How you know you’ve spent too much time on Lookout Landing, Part 763…

 …I swear on my life that Red was in my dream last night.

Welcome.

That is only Stage 2.

Stage 6 is trippy as hell.

by marc w on Nov 21, 2008 9:28 AM PST to parent up   0 recs

There is no stage 6

If stage 3 occurs I’m never going to sleep again

Did you ever see Being John Malkovich?

When JM goes through the portal and everyone he sees is a version of himself?

In Stage 6, most everyone looks like Robert.

I stayed awake in a dark room for 2 days.

BOTD...

OH HELL YES.

Bacon wrapped tater tots!!!

Oh my goodness.

I want this. Right now. This is the breakfast of gods.
Bacan-wrapped hashbrowns too, but this is too…perfect.

by marc w on Nov 21, 2008 9:30 AM PST to parent up   0 recs

Sounds very greasy.

Man do I love midgets.

by Thingray on Nov 21, 2008 10:17 AM PST to parent up   0 recs

God damn you

Somebody make these and bring them tonight. If we pretend to be a birthday party group then we can bring in food

You're sick.

Lay down and get some rest dammit.

Man do I love midgets.

You are so damn cool.

Anything on your wish list us non-cooks could provide?

by Sec 108 on Nov 21, 2008 10:52 AM PST to parent up   0 recs

I have an entire box of this at home I think.

If I remember I’ll grab it before heading to the bowling alley.

Man do I love midgets.

by Thingray on Nov 21, 2008 11:20 AM PST to parent up   0 recs

I can't make it tonight...

…so I’m telepathically sending a bottle of spiced rum.

But RC only gets to drink it AFTER she drinks the elderberry tea that she needs to drink. After downing some elderberry extract. And dissolving some of these under her tongue:

(Normally I’d just suggest the individual doses of Kali B, Gelsemium and Allium cepa, but this has all of it plus a few other things — Belladonna for fever, etc…)

This signature space for rent.

Kevin -

Would it be at all possible to get an mp3 of the Japanese band you were talking about last night?
Remember: I’m the sucker who’s going to buy all of your purdy vinyl LPs when they’re available….

by marc w on Nov 21, 2008 9:37 AM PST   0 recs

That can be arranged. Stay tuned...

I’m just hoping to not be working from 7:30-9:30. Grrr.

Aww, poop. We'll meet soon enough.
