Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: Amos Date: 09 Feb 05 - 10:39 PM See, that's the problem around here. We got terrific tacticians and no strategists. I think relocating to Florida was a strategy!!! Anyway, we'll fall back on the use of Bunker Buster Chick Tunes and chocolate-melting serenades and hope that keeps the sunshine turned on while we are together. Because, ya know, the thing about Jeri, and Jacqui, and Mary and others of the Invert Persuasion, is that they are just so melt-down IRRESISTIBLY fine when that sunshine is shining out, and they smile and look with their big eyes...ya just get all discombobulated and the world seems the better for it. Undeniably persuasive and irresistibly boooootiful. So let's aim for that. A |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: Ferrara Date: 09 Feb 05 - 10:23 PM Sorcha, I hate to talk about actual Getaway stuff in the midst of all this jollity and friendly, sophisticated repartee, but ... we'll have registration forms before too long, and the folks arranging this shindig will truly appreciate any responsible people who get their registration in well before September. Sometime in September there is a drop-dead date where we have to tell the camp how much food to provide. That's the final absolute (almost) deadline for registering, but you can register as soon as we put up the forms, which will be after we find an FSGW volunteer to handle this year's registrations. By mid August we'd like to have lots of registrations already in hand and have some idea how likely others are to register. Now back to the party.... |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: Bobert Date: 09 Feb 05 - 08:58 PM Well, gol danged, Big ol' Mick... You afraid of the womenz? Not me. "Why?", you ask... Well I'll tell ya why... Yeah, sure they is womenz and as womenz they have messed up wirin', right? But, hey, you can't hold that aginst 'um. You think that womenz wanta have messed up wirin'? Don't answer that too quick 'cause the proff is in the pudding' er something like that. Okay,truth be knowed, pudding has nuthin' to do with their messed up wirin'... Hey, they'z womenzm ain't they? Got it yet, Mick? But I will say one thing about Mudcat womenz...sniff... and I say this from thre bottom of my heart... They is all purdy, and inspite of their wiring situations, is some mighty fine peoples as well... But, and this might be an important "but" here, Mick... Don't turn yer back on any of 'um if they are in possession of duct tape... No sir, don't do it an' yer prolly gonna be jus' fine... Bobert |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: beardedbruce Date: 09 Feb 05 - 08:55 PM Not to worry, Mick... We will surrond you with circles of chocolate and (glasses of) single malt- you will be able to hear them approaching... You should have time to escape... |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: jacqui.c Date: 09 Feb 05 - 08:53 PM Why delicately? Subtle as a housebrick would be better. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: SINSULL Date: 09 Feb 05 - 08:48 PM That's it - we'll get Mick while he sleeps. Now for the plan...these things must be done delicately. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: Jeri Date: 09 Feb 05 - 08:40 PM Somebody else wanna jump on that straight line? I'll take care of Jacqui's chocolate, if you're worried. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: jacqui.c Date: 09 Feb 05 - 08:17 PM And I cut Kendall off before he could post - I'm going to have to keep a close eye on him! |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: jacqui.c Date: 09 Feb 05 - 08:02 PM I don't like chocolate and I'm bringing my own booze. Not sure about the love songs though....... |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: beardedbruce Date: 09 Feb 05 - 08:01 PM Well, if we put away enough for, say , 5 pounds a week untill the Getaway.... Have to be good stuff, though. Fill Jeri's car with Hershey's Kisses? Jacqui's weight in Godiva's? |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: Big Mick Date: 09 Feb 05 - 07:58 PM bb, .... THAT IS FRIGGIN' BRILL!!!! ...... except we have a problem. The numbers of these women that are Mick |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: SINSULL Date: 09 Feb 05 - 07:57 PM aXE MURDERESSES???? dAMN cAPSLOCK! We are far more subtle than that. And far more dangerous. We prefer to leave our victims severely mangled but alive. Being in ladylike mode for the duration of the Getaway, I will not participate in the sacrificial sections of the proceedings. But I will help plan them. And ten bottles of champagne is nowhere near enough. I plan to bring some of my own favorite - Mumm's Cordon Rouge. Unless of course there is a half price sale on something vintage from the Rothchilds at Hannaford's. Stranger things have been known to happen. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: beardedbruce Date: 09 Feb 05 - 07:53 PM Mick, Chocolate. LOTS of chocolate. |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: jacqui.c Date: 09 Feb 05 - 07:51 PM I think that I speak for Khatt when I say that any move to liberate husbands will be looked on as an act of war. Just remember - you've gotta sleep SOMETIME - even if it is only for half an hour and we'll be waiting........ |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: Big Mick Date: 09 Feb 05 - 07:50 PM OK, Southern Cal Boy ..... I can see we have a learning curve at work here ..... sit down, grab a Coke ..... there you go. Now listen, boy. That would make these fearsome creatures pissed off for spoiling their fun. Then they would begin to hunt us. Have you any idea what would happen when they caught us?????? How do you think the spud thing got started??????? I pissed off THE FAIR ONE and have had to walk around in a lime green thong with a spud stuck in the back ever since!!! And they sicked that damn Koko on me, and I still look around each time I walk out the door looking for a woman who needs a shave and has a lustful look on her face!!!! Nope, ole buddy, I think we need to outfox (bad use of term there) these women, but I we will need a plan. Got a better one????? Mick |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: Amos Date: 09 Feb 05 - 07:25 PM Jeeze, I dunno--an insidious Estrogen PLot, cold weather, conniving wenches with a reputation as axe murdresses...this is all too much for my wee brain, Mick. Maybe you and I could just whisk Kendall off to Orlando, or Pensacola, and get a tan all over except for the guitar strap, playing music in the sunlight. Ya think? We could buy Spaw a ticket too, sorta sneak him down there and stay out of trouble minding our own business in a warm and friendly A |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: jacqui.c Date: 09 Feb 05 - 07:22 PM Don't you mean the Folk Goddess? He he he |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: Big Mick Date: 09 Feb 05 - 06:44 PM Yes, there can be but one must remember to apply the conversion factors. These is a very special breed of women. One of them is equal to 4 testosterone laden males, and when it comes to deviousness, then one must multiply by a factor of 7. I am not sure we are up to this, mate. We must cast our fates to the Folk God, and hope for the best. Mumbling Mick |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: beardedbruce Date: 09 Feb 05 - 06:26 PM Is there no safety in numbers? |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: Big Mick Date: 09 Feb 05 - 06:19 PM bb, these are equal opportunity axe murderers. They will eviscerate a Republican just as quickly as a Democrat. They will give a hidin' to a Conservative just as quickly as a Liberal. It ain't safe, I'm tellin' ya. Mick |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: beardedbruce Date: 09 Feb 05 - 05:11 PM Mick, This transcends any difference in politics. Feel free to call on me, if you need assistance. |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (14-17 Oct ) From: jacqui.c Date: 09 Feb 05 - 04:43 PM I might let him out for Old Songs - if he promises to keep quiet about this. Other wise it's going to be out with the masking tape...... |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (Oct.14-17 ) From: Big Mick Date: 09 Feb 05 - 03:49 PM Everytime I open this *&*(^%$)$@## thread, it becomes clearer that my personal friggin' Armageddon will occur sometime between October 14 and October 17, 2005. Men, we must rally together. These women are up to something that is sure to raise blood pressure and cause an international incident. It could spell the end, I'm tellin ya. Mick |

Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (Oct.14-17 ) From: Big Mick Date: 08 Feb 05 - 06:56 PM How does that old saying go? Something to the effect of "I am now well and truly .........ed". Next thing you know, they will be ropin' Ebbie and KT in on this mess. ........ shit. Mick |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (Oct.14-17 ) From: Jeri Date: 08 Feb 05 - 06:52 PM Mick, I might be in on it too. If I were you, I wouldn't sleep at all. In fact, you probably shouldn't even sleep between now and then, because you just...never...know... |
Subject: RE: Getaway 2005 (Oct.14-17 ) From: Bill D Date: 08 Feb 05 - 06:25 PM well, well, well!!...such amazing developments! Sounds like one heck of a party! Now, THIS year, if everyone who says they are coming actually does, we will have to get a serious group picture!(If anyone in this group can BE serious long enough for a picture! *grin*) |
