TERRIBLY IMPORTANT REMINDER

BEND BLOGGER BASH

TONIGHT (Wednesday the 11th of August, 2004)

6:00 PM – ???

AT TIMBERS SOUTH (you know, that crazy hack-job meat place by Goodwill… and you know the party is gonna be at Goodwill before everything is said and done)

If your last name starts with A-J you should bring eggs

If your last name starts with K-S you should bring stolen street signs

If your last name starts with T-Z you should start running now

Members of the public are welcome and encouraged to attend. Witness the wretched filth featured on the front page of Community Life first-hand!

I wrote about stolen street signs this week, hope that counted, Dane. And nice to see ya! Smoke-free place next time (and maybe quieter than a shrieking kid-spot, as well) and … we’ll yak more;-)

Yeah Barney! It was great seein’ ya, and rocking out to Meatloaf and Judas Priest while the sullen-eyed cowboys looked on in disbelief. Where did all these geeks come from?
I’m all for no-smoke on our next hang, and while a shrieking-kid-pot doesn’t sound enticing at all, my spirit is always moved by the promise of good bowling. Or putt-putt. Cuz ya know, us bloggers have very sophisticated recreational tastes.
Goals for next time: More ladies, more eggs, more stolen goods, and more Live Journalists. Oh yeah. And more 80’s music. We got our essential Billy Joel fix, but a blogger hang just ain’t a blogger hang without Devo and Loverboy…

Agreed on all counts — except for the LJ folks 😉
I need to look and see if there are any xanga.com folks in Bend. They’re just as obnoxious as many LJ folks, so I think we get them all in a room together, let them beat themselves senseless, and then we’ll go have our fun.
Or send them a postcard that says “Meetup at xxx” and send them there, while we go somewhere else ;-).
But definitely, smoke free next time. We need better planning, firmer date, possibly a slightly later start (7?) so that those of us with kids can see our kids a bit after work before we go.
