I'm imagining Jack Black as Nacho Libre or Chris Farley as El Niño http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mkSRUf02gu8Quote:

It'll be kind of like the first attempt at a quadruple axle in skating.
Heck, I was think of 14-point Arial. I can see this not going well.
And we have to have these!
Speaking of pee, we could have a subdivision where we attempt to write the longest word our bladders will allow. There could be points for flourishes, style and execution. The rules would have to stipulate a continuous, unbroken line.
On another tack I am increasingly finding myself welcoming the weekend, and anticipating its arrival on Thursday. Is this normal for the ageing bloke? I do have another 18 years to go. boo
I'm the exact opposite - everyone goes home on the weekend, so I can't make any money!
Ban weekends and holidays, I say.
Yes, it could serve as our Zamboni, clearing the yellow snow for the next round.Quote:

As long as you have a keyboard they're not too bad, but if you have to have a keyboard, you may as well have a laptop!
Well, at the risk of being crude (a risk I'm willing to take), will there be any points deductions if my script is in somebody else's handwriting? I'm getting a picture here of El Sancho with his hands in his back pockets, shuffling sideways in the snow, receiving the assistance of a woman of low morals yet good handwriting skills.Quote:

If JBI can do hanzi, I think he'll win.
Sancho: I believe an outside helping hand is considered cheating in pretty much any contest.
*Brushes the cobwebs out of the corner of the bar, shakes Parker.*
Bit quiet in here, chaps.
Spring is sprung for you northern chappies, and we're basking in a glorious Indian Summer down here, so all is well with the world.
I see there's a push to make Martinis cool again.
I prefer mine made from frozen ingredients. Keeping the gin at -15C seems to be the ideal. So cold you don't notice it setting fire to your oesophagus.
Mmm, martinis.
Parker is mixing them to my precise instructions* and will be delivering one to everyone right away!
*4:1 gin:vermouth. Gin @ -15C, extra-dry vermouth @ -4C, shaken lightly in small amount of crushed ice and a martini olive, poured into chilled martini glasses. Order sober drivers.
I'll have one of those - thanks.
Spring is springing here, but it's still a bit cold. Snow is forecast tonight, though it is not expected to be heavy.
It might be time for another party.
Good idea.
How many fireworks do we have right now?
The bar's stocked, I have an order of fillet steak arriving... anything else we need?
Lately it's been the "dirty" vodka martini for me 3:1:1(shots) vodka/dry vermouth/olive brine, shaken with crushed ice.
I'm sure there's still quite a bit left in the Gurgle arsenal out at my sisters place. We typically re stock each 4th of July and New Year's.
Oh yeah! That sounds good.
Apart from the vodka martinis.
Parker is on warning that he is not to allow the vodka bottles anywhere near the vermouth. The threat of cross-contamination cannot be ignored.
I'm going to get some laser lights to accompany the fireworks. Andre Rieu is coming with his orchestra, and most importantly, Mirusia Drunen.
Nothing but class this time around.
Tractor-pull starts at 3 pm.
