Thanks, I believe I will. So while drinking in here I am at home using Mozilla on my PBook to make a page chronicling the latest activities of the Burning Squid project. I am a rank amateur when it comes to Web stuff, but it doesn't seem all that hard. I'll keep drinking along here and let you know when the pages are up.

By the way, did any of y'all see the photo that R-Jack posted a few days ago of Palestian men and boys throwing stones at a bulldozer? I can't get that image out of my head. Sums up the Palestinian situation in a nutshell, I guess.

hey BHA

I posted something very brief when this thread was just about to overtake the 3 words one. Lost track after that.

i dunno, B-head, but i hit page 200 and celebrated in my own, smirking, old-eplaya kind of way.

seriously, though, the reunion is so much more smashing. you have to realise that
1)i'm not from there
2) she's not from here
3) we're currently less than a mile apart
4) she heard about BM from an email i sent to her roommate a year ago
5) i was only there for a year and a half
6) i think i only knew her for a semester

and here we are, meeting at a real bar soon, after determining that we know ALL of the same people and took classes from the same teachers and hung out in the same place.

the school is small and remote and not too well known unless you do music.

the chances? pretty fuckin' slim.

this rocks.

yay, us!

and now, my pretties, we will draw her inexorably into our seattle burner web! muhahahahahaha!!

Appropriately cryptic.

"He" and "Balerina" in the same sentence. The images are too disturbing to my testosteroned mind (testosteroned?). Yeah, yeah, that just proves I've got dinosaur DNA in my blood, and I need a transfusion, but... well... wait a minute.... I was going to wear a slinky black number at BM (I couldn't find the fuck-me pumps, remember) and I'm not averse to wearing a tutu in fun... so.... what's my problem? Shit! I'm not turning into my grandfather, am I? Fuck!!

My apologies to whomsoever I may have offended. For penance I will wear a tutu at the next M&G... providing I can find tutu and tights that can fit my lard ass...

Shit... gimme' a beer...

I hear someone's cracked open a bottle of single malt around here.

Hit me!

Rian's right... the complexities of our reunion are forever unfolding:

add onto the stuff she's already listed:

>we never were in the SAME class together, just took the same classes from the same teachers at different times
>likewise, we hung out with the same people, but never at the same time, really.
>our paths usually only crossed at a small coffee/internet bar on campus
>we weren't 'friends'... we talked to each other occaisionally, albeit briefly, we knew of and about each other, but had no contact outside of the cafe, really
>THE ONLY reason I knew of the Burn was because of a mass email she wrote --but DIDN'T write to me.... just to a friend of mine, who happened to read it out loud to me.
>said small college is a private, expensive one, located in the middle of the cornfield that is IOWA (I know, I know, I promised I wouldn't tell: sorry Rian)

It's all pretty mind blowing, really.

Sorry to have taken this thread down a rabbit hole with our reunion: I'm sure it's pithy and quaint to some, but it's really quite remarkable, given all the factors. (And Rian, I didn't even remember you were from here until you told me earlier today...)

And now, BACK TO YOUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAM.

Where are my cuffs? This deserves a celebration.

Oh, and if any of you visit that link to my little picture website, you'll see what I'm going to be wearing tomorrow...

BHA, I missed you while you were gone.

And I haven't seen Geekster in here in a while.... *peers around* Yoo hoo! Geekie??

It is very quiet in here tonight GE. I think without Tisha in here all the boys logged off. And now that you are back we should see some male attention in here soon.

Hi GE, that would be the lil heart bikini number, I imagine?

I missed you, too. Don't tell that other sweetie, she's kinda the jealous type.

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Tue Oct 19, 2004 7:23 pm

Well, you and I are here, so we better make the best of it! Soon enough, we'll have everyone in here, and they'll all be green with jealousy!

Mwahahah!

What're we drinkin?

(and tell me about your real-life meeting with Tish!!! C'mon, give me the dirt!)

Soooo Spinner, are we to assume you are going to be looking for work?

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Tue Oct 19, 2004 7:29 pm

Hmmm... I'd whip your booty, and you'd like it, for sure, BHA.... but I'll let you revel in your silence... I'm drinking: what're you pouring?

Sputnik: they won't do us a bit of good back behind the bar: you'd better get them out. Can you rig them up to the ceiling for me??

DJ: lies! All lies! It's okay, though. I'll allow both you and BHA your little secrets. I'll learn them someday...

I actually was hired here in Portland into a good job. I won't actually be starting for a week or so. Which is good it gives me time to help out with the decom. And of course it leaves me some time to harass all of you. :p

If anybody has a problem with me doing a few asanas in here while I sip this here beer they can kiss my parivrtta trikonasana.

Here, I found them, and a pulley. That should make it a bit easier. No more climbing on chairs.

Hold on while I throw a rope over those pipes.

I've never seen it that way, and it just made me think of blowjob.

deskjob...blowjob...hmmm...not at all the same.
