Memph, TN The Rendezvous- The Official Social Thread of the Memphis Fan Force

I keep getting emails saying that Avon sales reps are needed.

I can just see me, Rob, and Timmy throwing Avon parties now...

 

I think we could totally sell the crap out of some Avon and Tupperware.

 

Throw in some Amway and we can't lose!

 

Eh, you guys are more the Mary Kay type.

I love that book!

As long as we don't sell Herbalife. Only total losers sell that.

 

Don't suppose anyone here has brought any of the recent SW figures that came with Build a Droid parts for HK-47 from the Knights of the Old Republic videogames and doesn't want the parts...?

 

Sure didn't, Ben. They were always kind of overpriced, and I've cut way down on buying action figures since I have no place to keep them.

 

Crickets

 

I hear that they're good luck in China.

 

They serve them as food in Mexico!

 

Now I'm glad that I didn't go to Mexico with the intention of trying "authentic" cuisine.

I think they eat them in China, too. Deep-fried on a stick, of course. I prefer them on a hook... as bait.

 

If you ever go to China, you must try the balut!

 

balut.... now that's just mean.

 

The kidlets got you watching "Mulan" again, eh Tim?

 

If they wrapped the crickets in bacon after pickling them in gin or vodka Timmy would at least think about trying them.

 

Few pics from the Orpheum auction this past Saturday-

Wow, looks like the crowd was dressed up in their finest! Looks like it was a lot of fun.

 

Yep- hope to do it again next year. Want to do a chair and a painting.

 

You guys can wear your wedding finery to it, so you'll be able to say your wore them more than once! Okay, maybe not Nicki. Unless she get's her wedding dress shortened, which is what a lot of people do if it's a simpler style (read: no puffy sleeves).

 

Dude, I don't do puffy sleeves or bows on my butt.

 

My wedding dress had sleeves that stood up about four inches, no lie. Late eighties, FTW.

 

That sounds a lot like the bridesmaid's dress I wore in my sister's wedding in the early 90's.

 

I also had the Scarlett Ohara Hoop Skirt. Ugh.

 

I had a hoop skirt for senior prom.

Also had bridesmaid dresses in fuchsia, lavender, peach and sea-foam green taffeta. All with puffy sleeves and bows on the butt.

80's FTW!

At last my Revan figure won't have to look at Malak all day along! Now where can I get Darth Nihilus and HK-47...?
