Just finished all errands and phone calls and housework. I put the chowder on simmer and put the whores devours out. Try the smoked oysters with a bit of devilled egg on them there fancy crackers, but, wait until I pour you a bit of rum to go with it. BTW, those are Canuck cold water shrimp, not that tasteless crap from Thailand. Try one without any sauce first. You'll see the difference right away.

Raptor... shall I preheat the oven for the ribs, or are they already cooked? What be your libation?

Kendall... are you bringing your own strings or can you manage on my old Seagull? Gibson's Finest with water or ginger? Try the smoked salmon and feta on melba... seriously. Oh yeah... since you are not into the football, you can tend the fireplace.

I have a spare Hran, Bones and Mandy... anyone? Bring your own whistles, though. I don't swap spit with anyone.
