Final Weekend

[Avan]

I will miss each and every one more deeply that I can say.   
god speed, good wind, and safe travels.     

last one out, please raise the drawbridge and shut out the lights.


one last time, as our Briggadoon sinks into the sand.....

Of all the money that e'er I had
I've spent it in good company
And all the harm that ever I did
Alas it was to none but me
And all I've done for want of wit
To memory now I can't recall
So fill to me the parting glass
Good night and joy be with you all

Oh, all the comrades that e'er I had
They're sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e'er I had
They'd wish me one more day to stay
But since it falls unto my lot
That I should rise and you should not
I'll gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be with you all

This song has become harder to hear this year since the memorial for Joe and hearing Rali try and sing it without breakdown.  She and almost everyone else failed.

I had a great weekend and it was nice dressing a little different on Saturday.  I had to have all my flasks in a picnic basket and used a valet to carry them.     Cordial Cup was wonderful and hearing everyone sing "Costumes for Rent" back to me was a heart filling experience.  I still try not to ponder too much on it so my allergies make my eyes water. Yeah its allergies.

Are you sure that wasn't the Ghost of John Lennon you saw running about. You know Yoko used to make Johns favorite dish Yakashima Hamster which is considered a real treat amoungs British rosk musicians who marry oriental women who think they can sing but really can't.

Gauwyn, where you by chance in Scotland and pissing off a bunch of Highlanders?

Yes, that may have been it!  That would explain why I woke up in a sheep herd?!?

You two should try to make it to KC or MNRF - any chance?

[Capt Gabriela Fullpepper]

I think KC would have a higher chance than Minnesota as Toki hasn't been working much and my job ends in Sept/Oct. Lets hope we can make it

[Demetrius]

That was me, actually.  I was wearing a mask of Demetrius' face.  Sorry for the confusion.

No wonder everyone exited so fast...

I for one can say that Demetrius WAS INDEED the person in said videos!
How do i know?
It looks like him,
Sounds like him,
Smiles like him,
Stands like him,
And........
That person Smells just like Yaki-don't talk backi-tori chicken with a hint o hamster mixed in!
And Zoe smells like SodaPop!

Ah, but you are just bringing more evidence into it. I did not see him there, but I did see the Zoda pop wench with the Mardi Gras mask!

I will miss each and every one more deeply that I can say.   
god speed, good wind, and safe travels.

Must have been quite a moment...
