November meeting 11/22 @ 4PM - Skywalker Ranch

ooh shucks! thanks Dan...You need your own Screen name!!! you know you want to!

if you kids are up for it now that you know how to play, we should try it at the holiday party.

 

I thought it was hilarious. I'm definitely down to write some more. I promise to write faster.

 

glad you could make it Joe! it was nice to meet ya and we aren't that scary.

 

Thank you I had a really great time. And yes, thank you John and Linda for hosting ! My Fiance would like to go next month but I think she's a wee bit frightned just cuz she thinks she's not a SW Fan. This morning though, I caught her singing along to Richard Cheese's "Star Wars Cantina". I would think that qualifies her as a fan. I'm trying to tempt her to come over to dark side next month .

 

If shoe wont come willingly, trick her

 

Me - *waves hand* "you want to come to the meeting".
Her - "I want to come to the meeting".
Me -"This is the meeting you're looking for".
Her -"This is the meeting I'm looking for".
Me -"You want to watch the SW holiday special".
Her -"Not for a million bucks, buddy".

 

Point out that there are several unwilling parties at these events... FanForced, Catz, Dan, Amanda, Amy.... and many many moons ago, our fearless leader was one of them too.

 

Amanda is a geek, a lit geek.But a geek is a geek! I dont think she counts as an unwilling party. LOL

 

Joe, tell her not to worry about it there are a lot of signficant others that are not SW fans. (although they are starting convert some of us....)

 

Thank you so much Jonathan and Linda for the great party, food was great, company was excellent, fire was interesting.....

 

Heh heh. Fire.

Aaaaaand there went my chamomile tea on the keyboard. Thanks, JT.

 

figures. the first time the RMFF almost burns the place down, and i miss it.

 

lulz. win.

 

Thankfully, at least one of us counted Smokey The Bear as our friend

 

Heheh, Fire, Fire, heheheh

 

I have a fire extinguisher ON THE STOVE for just that purpose because I don't have a 20 lb bag of baking soda laying around.

Most of us were more interested in watching it. "Oooh... fire."

 

Oh yeah! A fire extinguisher! Why didn't I think of the one that was next to the paper towels in our kitchen. Huh.

Oh well.

And we're still waiting for Courtney to come clean out our oven since her dripping marshmallows were the catalyst.
And I didn't even get to taste one!

 

I thought of it. It's just that we were still heating up rolls and such and I didn't think we'd be able to use the oven again if it was full of chemical foam.
for example, "Hmm, these rolls taste like cancer."

 

bah. I'd say the turkey grease was the fuel. I think the marshmallows just provided the smoke.
You didn't get to have any :-( There's still some solid bits in there. Let me get a chisel.

 

Everything that tastes good is bad for you, don't you know that?

 

happy...fire!

 

Which is why baking soda is the better choice than Chemical Foam... It's also MUCH easier to clean out of your oven, and doesn't make the food smell funny for the next month.

 

Gosh! That looks yummy JT. I think I'm glad now I had a bowl of Grape Nuts for dinner Saturday night.

 

We may have some leftover turkey flambe if you're interested.
