Note to self: when all the cafe members party inside the Dino Aspie ex-cafe' at the same time, and you add wombats, ...well, it's just one straw too may apparently. So I'll just lurk next time. Gotta have the wombats.

Nan's running amuck again! 8O First she knocks the server out here, then goes home and starts a riot! Bet she claims to know nothing about nothing too! Note above how she considers it all holiday fun? I bet she's descended from Huns! And other barbarians! Probably grizzly bears too! 8O

sorry, no. about 95% celt (aka blue paint and all), with maybe 2% viking (someone inserted that blonde gene in the family tree, though it managed to miss me), and the remainder, unfortunately, bluestocking new-england of english ancestry. (ok, that last bit would qualify for barbarians.)

i know how to use a blow-dart gun, you know, chuck. they're almost totally silent. the target never really hears it coming at them. :twisted:

riot was because someone put a slip-n-slide on the beach and the cops told 'em to put it away. apparently a grand time was had by all - the guys in the riot gear got to pepperspray the crowd, the crowd got to run around and scream and throw bottles, the helicopter guy got to use his bullhorn and shiny new spotlight, and the news reporters got to go to the beach instead of having to go inland to report on the heat. and the tourists got an eyeful and now have great stories to take back home again.

sounds like a relatively successful holiday to me.

Chuck, If it's Huns and barbarians you're worried about I don't think Nan is your problem. :twisted: :twisted: My great-grandmother was from the Saami reindeer herders, part Mongolian and part Russian. Almost everyone else is German, except for the tiny bit of Irish that gave me my temper.

oh, as if the irish have a temper.... :roll: WE didn't come rolling out of the steppes to conquer and pillage, now did we? my folks (many generations removed, of course) just kind of sat around and developed good whiskey and good music and stayed on our little island(s) and played "steal the cattle" all day.

and where, precisely, was chuck when the server went down, hmmmm? oh, sure, out running in the woods? stringing new clothesline out of that interesting string he keeps around the house? did ya notice that whenever he "passed out" at the party the server locked up?

pretty damned suspicious, to me. yup.
him and postie and lau.
it's a plot.


(ps. beware of the huns)

(and it ain't me, except for the heat thingy.)

Ya think? Story time.........

Gas house day, hot, humid, New Jersey, step into shack, take off gas mask, recite name, rank and telephone number, pledge alliagance to the flag, recite War and Peace and sing Mary had a little lamb, run like hell out of said shack or try, no running allowed. Everybody in a mass hacking, coughing, laughing, hard striper corporal (also known as the idiot) running in a circle around us with a canister hanging from a stick, canister omiting a cloud of smoke, sniff said smoke, smell nothing, idiot still running in circles, siad cloud of smoke gets seriously vicious, makes the smoke in the shack smell like voilets and lillys, burns, it burns, it burns more, cloud of smoke hangs in air, no wind, Postie see's clean air about 20 meters away and moves to it, the rest put on gas masks. Group moves off in formation, postie is doing 50 pushups with M-16 laying across knuckles and a pack on his back and has to catch up at a full gallop. Riot control grade tear gas is nasty nasty stuff. Made me the man I am today and I still move out of the smoke and they still were idiots for standing in the middle of it.

I shot the idiot corprol with a bb-gun during insticnt shooting training. He was in a hole all perfectly hid, or so he thought. I was already insticnted, I think it was for the city kids. Hey, he was going to ambush us, it was only fair and oh so rewarding.

Uh huh. And dollars to donuts says Nan was the "someone" who put the Slip-'n-Slide on the beach...

(Chuck's eyes cross, then he falls to his knees, then flat on his face - blow-dart quivering from the back of his head...)
