Hee hee....I agree with your attitude!

 

Now that's a line I would never touch.

 

OK, I'm booked into a 2BR Azalea...but I'm going for a whole week starting the 1st.
I will have a spare room with twin beds for anyone who needs a place to sleep.
When can we start a countdown and not look like a bunch of over eager whatevers?

 

Katie, and I hope I have that right, YOU of all persons coming a few days early are more than welcome.You are expected!

 

But, Katie....we are a bunch of over-eager whatevers!

 

Finally, some identity Sort of

 

5/6 months is not "over-egar". It's the spring and all things bloom. We're starting Spring early.

 

We are SO over-eager! As soon as we check out of Fontana, we are already planning the return trip! Eternal springtime of convoluted minds.....

 

You forget that we do the Dragon many times a year not just this one. We need to get the folks Stoke-A-Polkaed soon as possible.

 

I'm stokin as part of my training regimine for The Dragon. I just bought some "close to Cuban" cigars, signed up for a wine appreciation class and working on consumption strength, and thickening my skin in anticipation of meeting TSB. In sum, I am pumping me up!

 

What are you doing to get thicker skin?

 

Thats not training ... thats everyday ROUTINE!

Dont even need a class to appreciation wine

 

Here's where the wine appreciation class came from. I was having dinner with some people at a posh restaurant. They were having a half price bottle night. Everyone but me had all these descriptions like, "there's a delightful cotton overtone", "there's just a hint of polyester bite", and "a very subtle but nicely sweet poodle finish".

Feeling out of my league I finally said something about how I liked how it tasted, but didn't want to be a poser, and confessed I couldn't describe why. The only other guy there (ehem ) said they also didn't know much about wine but had taken the class to try and learn what to taste or, at least, so they would know how to talk like they did.

If I am would be in May, I promise not to be a poser about either cigars or wines. You can't see, but I typed that last sentence with one hand on the NAM members Bible: The Members Manual.

 

LOL. Maybe the people at the table were posers

As to cigars, no posing necessary. I'm sure you know by know which ones are good and which ones they sell at Joes Bar & Grille beside the Have a Tampas

You just cant get a great 2 bit cigar no more

 

Frankly, I've never tasted polyester, and the thought of a "sweet poodle" taste in a wine makes me wonder where he stores HIS wine...and never to sample it.

 

Awesome, Toastie's in the house!

 

OK, OK, OK... But how about... tequilas? A well trained toungue can appreciate a reposado, a blanco and the anejo... and the difference a 100% Blue Agave tequila can offer. Any trained toungues out there?

 

Ask sndwave He's an expert I brought him a bottle of tequila last year but my "old" brain can't remember He liked it though

I was on my knees worshipping you for the gift, but working the front table you didn’t see my happy dance.

I did enjoy the drinks and I hope you have enjoyed the wheel.

 

You would be the best friend I have never met if you did this! Just let me know what you want me to bring and it's there!

 

I'm going to the Dragon to motor up and down that road, help Clo cook and host things.

The only thing I know about wine is red ones make me sneeze. Cigars are nice, but I don't know a good one from a bad one.

Now beer, that is a topic I can get into:smile:

 

Some Moosehead? Molsons?

 

I plan on doing an evening run on the dragon tomorrow... anyone up for it?

Hey Hammy... can I convince YOU to bring some good ole' fashioned panther ****?

TO the Montana-er -- While I loved Moosedrool, I also had a delightful microbrewed oatmeal stout. I would gladly trade you some aforementioned panther **** for some... if someone could supply the name of the delightful oatmeal stout

Toastie is definitely IN... although, of course, no reservations were made today, either -- but they will be. I'm Comin'. And y'all are gonna help me celebrate my 26th. Which will officially take place the Thursday before The Dragon. Wooo hoo!!

 

Not Molsons. Moosehead is ok.
