A2K Antarctica gathering

 
 
Reply Thu 11 Mar, 2004 08:17 pm
Let's see if we can get a group together in late July for an Antarctica gathering. I was thinking of setting up a tent on the ice shelf between Marie Byrd Land and Victoria Land.

Maybe some hot chocolate, hot dogs, and quite possibly, but I haven't committed to this yet... caramel corn.

I'm looking forward to a great time on the ice cap and look forward to seeing all A2Kers who are willing to make the trip.

Ceili and littlek have agreed to dance for the crowd.

Occom Bill will be bringing a deck of playing cards.

And a special thanks to BiPolarBear for supplying the drugs.

See you all there.

I'll be there but...I heard a story on NPR this evening that the gas emitted when opening bags of microwaved popcorn may be toxic. Something about the ingrediant called "butter substitute." I kid you not.
So if you were planning on running a very long extension cord, forget it. Or else I'm not coming.

Ok, a little menu adjustment...

Hot chocolate, hot dogs, caramel corn (maybe) and dagmaraka's cousins.

I can't wait. Pass the cousin please.

Too bad, Ceili. You've already promised that you would dance for the crowd, and, dammit woman... you're gonna dance!

Count me in. I love to play cards...what kind of drugs are going to be there?

We may have to kick the penguins out, in order to have room to dance.

I'ts dark all day...won't it be dangerous building a campfire on an ice shelf?

Gus, with all that paraphernalia, you'll never make it through customsÂ…you will be sorely missed at the gathering.

I do not like winter.
But it may be a good "idea" when you are in July in the northern hemispere.

I don't think it's getting any warmer up there... well, not in any substantial way. So we might as well have the party now. We should have a talent show too. There's no point in getting together if we aren't going to compete for attention. We're not going to have a fire, are we? I just read that they let of toxic fumes. No joke.

Gus, if it's any weight off your back, I can supply the caramel corn. I still have a huge batch of Scoates' Special Christmas Caramel Corn (with and without almonds) going to waste from the holidays (I actually made the bacth around thanksgiving). They are already rolled into portion-sized balls, and wrapped in red and green plastic wrap, topped of with a grinning picture of yours truly, on each ball.

Did you see where Tonya Harding is going to play pro ice hockey now? I think she would be a fascinating guest speaker.

Hmmm...seems the drugs have been distributed a bit early! Mr. Green

You might convince me Gus if you include veggietarian weenies and provide a little male entertainment for the ladies. Very Happy

None of the men are going to come if there is any male entertainment... although, I suppose that may encourage Gus to have male entertainment...
