How come this year's Gathering is slowly turning into one of those Activity Holidays? Is it just okay if Earl and I get a speedboat while you guys bake, and do glass-painting and shit?
Well, all I do at home is sit around on my ass doing nothing. I don't want to do that on a vacation.
Can we get pics of you guys making fools out of yourselves on the lake?
I have a plan to get out in a johnboat with a large container of Midori Margarita, or perhaps some Rolling Rock and generally have a good time. I might row out to one of the islands and claim it in the name of Bulldrek. By that time, I will be tired and thirsty and will drink copious amounts of potables.

Anyway, no one said it was all activity stuff, I for one plan on having lots of sit around and do absolutely nothing. (Although I'm now getting this amusing picture of Caz standing at the front of a rowboat with a giant Bulldrek flag while people row going "Faster! I must claim this land in the name of Bulldrekkia!")
Just more of things to do considering its a whole week, and most of us will forget that whole sleep thing.
Speaking of margaritas, I have a membership with Sam's club and they have something like a 5 lb bucket of margarita mix, do you guys want me to look into it to see if it's worthwhile to bring?
If you are flying I'd say no. Trying to transport massive quantities of stuff when flying is rather silly, when there are other folks who can easily get it who are driving.
I have a membership to Sam's (at least I think I do). I'd be happy to pick it up, and you can pay me back if you are looking for some additional contribution to make.

ponders what a Midori margarita would taste like
Well, since my plan is to switch the Midori for the double damned tequila, pretty sweet and heady, with the extra goodness of stealthy booze.

I love Wildfire! Wild's my favorite girl!

In the words of John Shaft, "Hell Yeah." I'm only going to sleep when I absolutely have to.

Whoa...Midori is only outranked by mead for good stuff ^_^ I've had Midori straight (@_@ quick stealth buzz there), midori sours, and a midori colada, which was very good if this sick pale green color.
One time I built a matter transporter, but things got screwed up (long story, lol) and I ended up turning into a kind of half-human, half-housefly monstrosity.
