    *8-)

    Yeah Don, I SUPPOSE we'll allow you.
    
    Moe, ANY Of those things sound great.  Gee, this is nice .. I'm NOT the
    planner this time!  
    
    We could always go to the infamous CHOPSTICKS, too.
    
    Holly
    

    Anything at all.. I'm not fussy.. just so long as you fabulous people
    are there.. 
    
    Don
    *8-)

CM

    Re .4
    
    Yep, Jim.. even you guys!!
    
    hehehe...
    
    Don
    *8-)

    I think it would be fun to get as many of the ::friends together 
    any where, doing anything!!
    
    I am in agreement for the Murder night/or Chopsticks!!!  I think this
    will be great.  Since I am so new to the file, it would be fun to
    see the faces to the names!
    
    Count me in to help organize it if need be!
    
    Denise

    Well, since it looks like it's going to be on the 17th that Don will be
    available, I'll only be able to do something during the day.  
    
    But Don, I've got a REALLY Good reason! (-:
    
    
    
    
    I'm going to see Billy Joel and Elton John IN THE SAME CONCERT!!!
    
    Holly
    

    
    
    	PPPLLLEEETTTHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

	Don, when are you coming to Old England?

R.

	Let's do the cookout at >M<'s place on the 17th!
I think that'd be a blast (plus it's close to home for 
me!) :*)


chico

    sounds great to me.  I'll bring a dirt cake!
    
    Holly
    

    
    
    	Hey I vote for >M<'s place too.... ooops... that's ME!!! hheheeh
    
    	OK, let's do it!!!!  I have ONE grill, will need another one or
    	two....  it'll be BYOB....  and I'd like everyone to bring a little
    	something....  I'll get a list together of what needs to be brought
    	and then you all can pick what you want to bring.....  (The DIRT
    	cake is already spoken for!!!)
    
    	Let me know what you all have for YARD games too..
    
    	Oh, one other thing.... I was "talking" with Don on Saturday and
    	he'd really really REALLY like to go to KIMBALLS... SO.... what
    	if we kinda meet at KIMBALLS BEFORE the cookout and then head over
    	to my house?  I had suggested to do it after, but he seems to feel
    	that we may not be in any shape to do it AFTER....I think he might
    	mean that we, um, might be ... um... FULL, YEA, THAT'S the ticket!
    	hehehehehe
    
    	More later.....
    
    	>M<

    
    
    	Kimballs before-hand sounds good to me! Just let me know what
    time...:*)
    
    
    	chico

    Sounds great to me too.  Bob has never been there.  Gotta make sure he
    doesn't eat anything before hand and get him to try a special. (-:  
    
    Holly
    

    
    
    I'm there...enuff said!  :*)
    
    I'll bring my famous broccoli and bacon cheddar salad! :*)
    (It REALLY is good!)  
    
    
    Terrie
    

    
    
    	broccoli and bacon cheddar? Interesting....
    
    
    :*)
    
    
    chico

    
    
    I know....alot of people don't like broccoli, but this
    really is very very good.  I made a double batch of it
    for this past sunday's cook-out at Alan's aunt's house,
    and they devoured it!  I gave out 6 copies of the recipe.
    
    
    Terrie
    

    <M>
    
    Count me in.  I can bring a shrimp dip!!!
    
    So Kimbals before, what time are we talking???   Sounds like a lot of
    fun!
    
    Denise

    
    
    	Well, looks like a KIMBALLS trip would be "beneficial" to all
    	hehehehe....  How does 12NOON sound for KIMBALLS and then get to
    	the house whenever.?????  I'll send directions to everyone later
    	(directions to KIMBALLS AND to my house)...
    
    	>M<

    Hey <M> since this is Don's idea to go to Kimballs... is he buying??
    Make sure Terrie is there for helping with the Whip Cream!!!!!
    
    Denise

    
    
    Hi Denise!  Hey!!!  How'd you know about that???? :*) hehehehe
    
    
    
    Terrie

    ever have the SEXIEST voice!  I break out into a cold
    sweat.......never mind....I'm a married woman these days,

    	>M<

    Terrie... like Cheeks said... EVERYONE knows about the whip cream 
    episode!!!
    
    What about the guy John (?) the one that was waiting and thought
    know one showed up.... will he be there?
    
    Hey MOE-tenda don't forget the VAT of Moe-Balls!!
    
    Denise
    
    

    
    Yes, I'll be there. I wouldn't miss a trip to Kimbals for anything. And 
    then what ever afterwards. I hope Terrie is there to catch all the 
    whipped cream that I always seem to drop!!!
    
    John

    Don
    *8-)

    
    
    Oh, I'll be there, but the only whip cream catching I'll
    be doing is my hubby's. :*)  (Unless of course Hamp joins us!)

	Excellent! Gonna really P*ss off the neighbors...:*)



chico

    
    	RE:  .37  You can say THAT again!!! hehehehe....
    
    	OK, got to thinkin' 'bout this thing and since NONE of us are
    	independently wealthy, and there are a LOT of people comin', how
    	does this sound:  EVERYONE bring with them enough food for themselves
    	and then we'll "pool" all the food, cook it all up and serve it all
    	up to EVERYONE!!!!!  This way we'll KNOW there's enuff food for
    	everyone and you all will get to try other foods as well....(I think
    	there's around 20+ people comin'!!!!!!!)
    
    	We'll still need some dessert (TerriE and Holly already mentioned
    	a couple things!)
    
    	I sure hope it doesn't rain, because if it does, MAN, am *I* in
    	TROUBLE!!!  
    
    	I'm psyched!!! 
    
    	>M<

    
    
    	Hi All...
    
    	I just sent out a message about the cookout.... if you are planning
    	on attending and did NOT receive the message PLEASE let me know...
    	either in here or by ENET....  I don't want to leave anyone out!!

    	been sent directions (just now....BEEP BEEP BEEP).... if you want
    	to come on Sunday but didn't get the directions, PLEEEEEZE let me
    	know (Like I really have to tell you to do this!) and I will forward

    	hehehehehe..... you guys are PEEEEGS!!!!!!!!  hahahahaha
    	
    	I bought the plates, napkins and plastic-ware yesterday plus a
    	bunch of tonic.... got the cup already!!!
    
    	Would it be too much to ask everyone to bring a bag of ice with
    	them?  I"m gonna pick up a few as well.... CM is bringing a barrel
    	and we'll throw the ice and some water in there and the drinks to
    	keep it all cold....the beer can go in there too if you want yours
    	ice cold!!!!!
    
    	I"m psyched!!!!!
    
    	Just remember:   PLEEZE PLEEZE PLEEZE do NOT park in front of the
    	white ranch across the street from me....  He'll probably have his
    	cars pulled to the very end of his driveway (so noone can turn around
    	in it) and he'll probably get some branches and place them on his
    	lawn at the edge of the road too so noone will park on his grass...
    	hehehehehe.... last Fall I told him that if he pist me off, I was
    	gonna dump all my acorns and leaves in his yard... hahahahaha  And
    	he thought I was kidding too!!! hehehehehe
    
    	Looking forward to seeing everyone!!!!!!!!  Oh, ya, and meeting
    	Don too..... (IS he really gonna be there?  Anyone heard from him?
    	Does he know how to get there? Wouldn't THAT be a scream...him not
    	showing up for his own party!!! hahaha...NOT FUNNY >M<!)
    
    	>M<

I'll bring a slingshot and we can airmail him the acorns one at a time 8^)

Maybe we can have Chico show everyone where to park facing away from the guy's
house in his apron?

I'll have a bag to line the can with so the water/ice stays reasonably clean.

LET'S PAHTY!

    Don is really truly here....we have spoken on the phone - I called him
    back at his hotel room.  
    
    
    
    
    Psstt the Nashua Marriot)

    	O, I just wanted to let you all know that I'm going to put
    	BALLOONS on my street sign so you CAN'T miss the street.... and
    	I'll put balloons on my front yard light so you can't miss IT
    	either....(how CAN you miss a blue house with pink shutters and
    	a brown garage door?????!!!!)  Tell me, now!!!1 hahahahahaha
    
    	At LEAST 5 or 6 cars can park across the front of my property so
    	there shouldn't be TOOOOOO much problem parking....
    
    	RE:.... slingshots for the acorns...hehehehe  I LIKE that idea..
    	but I was thinking more of training the squirrels to bring all
    	of the nuts over there....OH.. I don't mean YOU guys, I mean
    	ACORN nuts...hahahahaheheheeh... (ain't that funny???!!!)
    
    	AHEM.... I'm all better now.... <snicker>....
