Umm, shit. Am I supposed to fly out today?

I'm not sure I'd really want to hit New York. I think what you said about Vegas would work better.

Cool, once we find each other we can hang out by the pool and play "cabana boy".

Night Blue!

Chai Guy · Post by **Chai Guy** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 3:02 am

Oh and I get to be the boy this time. OK?

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 3:07 am

Ahhh, c'mon I love playing the boy.

Smooch!

Now go to bed already! Or you're going to have that cold for longer than you like.

*M wanders in, cleans up a bit and makes some coffee*

Dang! Did I miss a party?

*heads out to enjoy the sun*

morning all.
just need to report.... the older son (defensive tackle) played excellent defense (good pursuit) at the homecoming football game... made a sack on the second to last play of the game in overtime... right after the game, a groin muscle snapped. man, he is in some pain!
now, if i can get him to pick up his math book.

Beautiful day out for fall clean up!! T-shirt and shorts and it's october 1st! Unbelievable and absolutely wonderful!
I'm having a caffeine fit though right now and I need a diet choke!
Everyone have a great day!

(comes in, drops off beer, sits in floor and knocks a flea, then heads out the door to enjoy the day... the glorious, wondermus day.)

Okay, here's the deal... I SO want to go and stir up shit in another thread. There's this wacko that's been sending psychotic PM's to anyone he disagrees with, and lo and behold, one of the other posters in that very same thread once sent me an invective filled PM - it went something like this: "Fuck you, you fucking fuck..." and went on for a paragraph or two. You could just feel the spittle runnin' down his chin.

Today, for whatever reason, I feel like flaming the living bejezuz out of this pool-boy but I can't bring myself to do it. Why? Well, I'll tell you. It's that damn Spectabillis and Chai. It's their fault. Ya' see, they're big-time moderators now. So what, I can hear you say? Why not flame pool-boy's pants off, moderators be damned?

Well, I've met them. Yeah, I know, creepy isn't it? It was at that debaucherous Meet & Greet, and they were, of all things, likeable. I've lost the ability to flame at will and not worry about the consequences. It's not just me anymore. They'll have to listen to pool-boy's inevitable whining and I don't want to cause that.

The thrill is gone.

Sensei, you know the old saying.....
"If you give someone enough rope............"

I've taken to this now when something gets to me, I think of the wonderful people I met on the Playa and the great time I had and it just gives me a big smile inside and out and I forget about the pool-boys making me mad.

That probably didn't help you at all.......screw it, let's just drink!!

Chai Guy · Post by **Chai Guy** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 5:35 pm

Sensei,

I totally know how you feel, and Martiansky's comment is right on. I always feel better in the long run when I restrain myself. Also, the person who looses control usually ends up looking like the ass.

I also want you to know that I appreciate your self restraint, and for venting here.

If you'd like to PM me about this issue, please feel free.

Thanks!

Ok I’ll go first,... Blue, LeChat, How the Hell are you?

LeChatNoir · Post by **LeChatNoir** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:04 pm

Sensei wrote:Okay, here's the deal...

I've found that, generally, when I really want to vent something, I wait until the next day. Then after waking to find that I am still alive and no worse off than I was the day before, I figure screw it, I've better things to do after all. If, after getting some sleep, I still feel I must expound at great droning length to whatever tree it is I wish would move, then at least I've had time to be calm and compose something of merit.

Now... this is a bar thread!!!

(pounces on Sensei's head and jumps up and down tigger style)

Let's drink, Let's drink, Let's drink!!!!

Oh, uh.. hey Z... Playing e-stare down, were we?

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:07 pm

Go out or stay home?

Go out or stay home?

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:08 pm

oh yea, and Sensei's working so he can't talk right now. And he's having trouble making up my mind for me.

Zulegoona · Post by **Zulegoona** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:09 pm

one of those times when you see a number of people you know on the boards and nobodies posting . I’m having a Bass Ale, what does every one else want?

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:11 pm

Go out or stay home?

LeChatNoir · Post by **LeChatNoir** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:13 pm

(Goes to cooler, gets salami and baguette...)

I’m voting for stay home, but I'm miles from anywhere and what do I know anyway?

How's about the house beer, Z?

Martiansky · Post by **Martiansky** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:17 pm

Evening everyone, LeChat, Blue, Z! Wasn't it a great day today?

Z, ya got an extra Bass ale?

Blue, where will you go if you go out?

Zulegoona · Post by **Zulegoona** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:19 pm

Since the case is open , Bass for everyone except Blue who wants an Absolute Lemonade

LeChatNoir · Post by **LeChatNoir** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:21 pm

Wasn't it a great day today?

It really was pretty much perfect here today. And I had a productive day in the shop and around the house too. I’m in a good space at the moment...

And you too, I presume?

Chai Guy · Post by **Chai Guy** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:22 pm

Go out. (you hippie)

geekster · Post by **geekster** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:23 pm

Thanks for the ale. Thinking about art projects. Thinking I might want to do something that moves. Slowly. Very slowly. So slowly that you don't notice it's moving. But bright, so you use it as a reference. But then it has moved.

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:23 pm

I'd be going to the Cabooze in Dinkytown to see Wookiefoot.

And I think I'm leaning towards going.

Zulegoona · Post by **Zulegoona** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:25 pm

I had to work so that pretty much shot the day,... What you working on LeChat?

LeChatNoir · Post by **LeChatNoir** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:26 pm

So slowly that you don't notice it's moving...

Ahhh... sneaky. I like it. Hidden wheels and drive mechanism? Solar powered, perhaps? That would seem to work for slow moving very well.

Wookiefoot

Good chance Niko is there.

Chai Guy · Post by **Chai Guy** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:28 pm

Hey Geekster, have you ever seen those models of the solar system that they sometimes have at large parks? Maybe you could do something like that? Set up the solar system model on the open playa and make each planet move on a gps controlled in accordance with the actual planets?

(did you see the lawnmower man on the playa this year?)

Martiansky · Post by **Martiansky** » Sat Oct 01, 2005 8:29 pm

You can only go if you wear those cool boots!

I had a productive day too! Got some stuff put away from the deck and started on my coat closet project in the porch, put up itch-a-lation and paneling. I'll finish it tomorrow. I think it's supposed to be nice again. I could definately get used to weather like this all year long!
