Spanky,

From me, THANK YOU. And I think I speak for a lot of people.

Sputnik coffee is back on the menu! YAY! Thanks, Sput. I'll take a cup!

BTW, have you seen the coffee machine by Coleman that sits on 2 burner stove for camping? I'm thinking about getting one!

'Mornin' Sputnik. I'm grateful my wife talked me into having two kids so they can play with each other in the morning. She must be happy too because here comes a steaming cup of Sumatran in her lovely hand.

You seem to live a charmed life MJM. I have to get my own coffee. I can't imagine a life where someone brings it to me. Ah what sweetness that would be.

I have not, but then again I rarely shop for much in the way of camp items. Last year my camp was pretty well prestocked with stuff, as this year's will be. I just have to get my ass there and pay some money. It works out pretty well.

hmmmm....still under construction, it seems... hmpf.
Well, I do have a cup o' joe, a folding chair, and a flask. May I join y'all waiting outside here? Did anyone salvage the NEB from the wreckage before they sealed it up? 'Tis a bit chilly this morning...

theCryptofishist · Post by **theCryptofishist** » Thu Mar 24, 2005 9:37 am

Here--it's not the NEB, but I do have a space blanket. mrFishist always makes me carry one.

[pout] i miss my friends and think all the semantic-arguing on the other threads about how the board needs to be fixed are ridiculous. the board wasn't perfect. it never will be. nothing is. i miss my friends and want to play with them in the bar. i don't really give a rats ass whether it's moderated or not, whether i can edit my drunken posting or not, or whether anyone is right or wrong or whatthefuckever. i want an e-beer, and some e-wit, and some e-enlightenment. that is all. [/pout]

Post by **actiongrl** » Thu Mar 24, 2005 10:06 am

well, it's eEarly, but I'm a fan of a beer in the morning. Here's an ebeer, just for you, Tisha. We're working on it for you, but I've got as many beers as you want in the meantime.

bullD · Post by **bullD** » Thu Mar 24, 2005 10:12 am

When do we get our e-playa fully back? :shock:

Post by **actiongrl** » Thu Mar 24, 2005 12:44 pm

Geez, LRB, the argument is so *compelling* when you put it like that.

We're almost there, but please, give us a chance to get this right. The projected time to flip the switch is later today, and what you're waiting on right now is me, and if you don't mind I'm going to stop typing long enough to shove my lunch down my throat and then I'll get back to it, I swear!

bullD · Post by **bullD** » Thu Mar 24, 2005 1:10 pm

yes, I plan on being there and will seek yous gals out. I have not been to one of these meetings yet so I am curious and I want to learn more about possible volunteering...

I will bring some beer, preferences?

speaking of volunteering, I am going up to BlackRock for dpdub's playa sweep in April. anybody else going? I was planning on riding my motorcycle up but could be up for driving my truck if carpooling is needed.

A brash, young fresh out of school, auditor had just joined the IRS and was
eager to begin tracking down high powered offenders. He was a bit dismayed when his first assignment was to audit a Rabbi. Looking over the books, he gathered that the Rabbi was clearly frugal and the accounts were pretty straight forward, but he thought he could have some fun with the Rabbi.

   After he had introduced himself, he said, "Rabbi, I notice you buy a lot of
candles, what do you do with the drippings?"

"A good question" responded the Rabbi.
   We save them up and when we have enough, we return them to the manufacturer for re-cycling, and every now and then, they send us a free box of candles!"

   The auditor was a bit annoyed that the answer was so practical and he decided to get even.

"Rabbi, what about these Matzo purchases... what do you do with all the crumbs?"

    "Ah yes," said the Rabbi, "we actually collect up all the crumbs and return them to the manufacturer and every so often they send us a free box of Matzo". Determined now to fluster the Rabbi, the auditor persisted...
    "Well Rabbi, what do you do with all the foreskins from the circumcisions?"

"Yes, here too, there is no waste!" answered the Rabbi, "What we do is save up all the foreskins and send them to the IRS."

"You send them to the IRS!" echoed the auditor in dismay.

"Yes we do," the Rabbi calmly replied, "and about once a year, they send us a little prick, like you!"

hmmmmm-ly,
the rebbi
