    Can you narrow it down a little bit more?  That's 80% of the guys there.

  • It's either the salado winery or we can do Yeager bombs at "the last chance" saloon on the side of I-35. I can't decide what would be more fun.
    Be careful, man! I've got a beverage here.

    I got some White Lightning and Apple Jack I can bring and we can direct traffic on 35 later that day.

    There were at least more than 200 there last year.  Maybe more this year.  As far as kilts, ABSOLUTELY NOT !  I don't recall more than 6 or 7 males wearing kilts last year.  I suspect that they have some fulfillment issues that they need to work through from childhood, but we live in an open society, and they are welcome to wear what they want.  Even the event organizer, Mickey, doesn't wear a kilt.

    I thought those were nipple rings...I knew cooking on my egg shouldn't hurt so bad.

    I might back out of the kilt thang if what VI said was true.  Save me from getting a kilt.  Aw hell, I'll see what I can do.

    Hey, Nola.  Don't let me influence you.  All I was saying is that far more men do not wear a kilt than those that do.  If you feel that is your calling, then by all means, do it.  It seemed that henapple thought it was a requirement.

    Be careful, man! I've got a beverage here.
  • Nola, That reminds me of one called "find the Canadian". If Beli wears a kilt I will

    I've always wanted a utilikilt anyway, I guar-on-tee I'll at least get and bring one and I'll probably make at least one kid cry, kilt or not, for some unpredictable reason.  Hey, is that a mosh pit over at nolaegghead's camp!?

    When do I start thinking about a hotel...or is there a place to camp with 'lectricity?
