[Postponed for now]

Postponed until further notice.

So this year is upon us, and the wood are full of trees. And its time for Paul and Meris Second Annual Burn the House down party!

The Dates: May 30th, 31st and June 1st. Which are a Friday Saturday and Sunday. I will most likely either take the 2nd of June off, or the 29th of May as well.

The Times: When you fucking drag your lame ass to my house.

What WE will provide: Our home, in all its trailer trash splendor, My Playstation 2, with its few games, my copy of Stratego and Axis and Allies, My five disc DVD changer, and the following:

We will provide an abundance of lunch meat, with fixin's. (Bread, mustard, cheese, dreckcetera...)

We will provide at least one home cooked breakfast.

We will have some Meat to BBQ, and two grills to Cue on again.

Coolers. I have like three.

What YOU need to bring:

This year I am saving money for Gen Con, and avoiding the whole Red Surge thing again. So bring a 12 pack of pop. You are encouraged t bring clothes, hygiene items, and anything you need to self medicate yourself into happiness-Alcohol only please. You may want to bring something to sleep with, I.e. a sleeping bag or a blanket.Whatever. If you want to do something specifically, bring that too.

I will be cutting wood a week or so from now, to set out. And addign to the pile. Hopefully our Septic will be fixed by then, so we will have showers available.

There is the possibilty this year that we may use our Inlaws place, where we are staying now. I will let you know as we get closer.

Now what I need are numbers. Who is in?

I'll let you know on June 2nd whether or not I went.

I'm certainly interested, but you know how the construction industry gets during the summer. And if I end up moving to Peoria, there is no way in hell I'm driving 6+ hours to get to a BBQ. I know it's a bomb diggity BBQ, but it's still not worth driving 6 hours for.

Let me know again where you live and I'll see if I can't drag aaron and john as well...

Sounds fun, toodles...

Damn you. My son is being born that week, and I don't think I can sneak away long enough.

Serious Paul · Post by **Serious Paul** » Tue Feb 11, 2003 11:44 pm

Sucker! You had Kids!

We can Game Sludig if you want, this year will be much different fromt he big ole power game I ran this past year. Also we could play other things if other people want to run them.

And yeah Stanton Michigan.

Damn you Paul. I don't have enough vacation time to come up for the BBQ, and in March, and go to GenCon. You suck.

Wildfire · Post by **Wildfire** » Wed Feb 12, 2003 3:30 am

Yeah, gonna already be making treks northwards end-ish of March, beginning of May and Gencon, can't do another one unless I end up moving a lot closer

Bishop · Post by **Bishop** » Wed Feb 12, 2003 4:17 am

I will be there, unless I run into another tree.

Like that would stop, me anyway.

FlameBlade · Post by **FlameBlade** » Wed Feb 12, 2003 4:23 am

Even if you're in bad shape, we expect you to be there, because you're a machine

Thorn · Post by **Thorn** » Wed Feb 12, 2003 4:51 am

Oooh. Caz and I are definitely interested. I'll need to do some checking before I say for certain, but I'd say put us down at 60% sure.

Eliahad · Post by **Eliahad** » Wed Feb 12, 2003 4:57 am

I like those dates, Paul...put me down as a maybe.

Big Jim · Post by **Big Jim** » Wed Feb 12, 2003 5:39 am

I'm a maybe as well.

Serious Paul · Post by **Serious Paul** » Wed Feb 12, 2003 11:49 am

Huge Major Date Change

Due to some popular demand by my wallet, the BBQ is officially moved to the very next weekend, June 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th.

Plan accordingly.

Instant Cash · Post by **Instant Cash** » Wed Feb 12, 2003 2:49 pm

Jaded and I will more than likely make it.

For those of you who want, the is also 1 motel nearby (like 2 minutes from his house) and it has cheap rooms. It is a skank motel, but the have a bed and a shower. Not like you spend a lot of time there anyway.

I think it was like $35 a night or something.

Paul, what was the name and number of that place again?

Eliahad · Post by **Eliahad** » Wed Feb 12, 2003 3:00 pm

I like those dates less

still put me down as maybe though.

Serious Paul · Post by **Serious Paul** » Wed Feb 12, 2003 9:26 pm

I will PM that number and stuff to you Ice. The date sput it after my pay day, which I like a lot better. Sorry not every one can make it.

MissTeja · Post by **MissTeja** » Wed Feb 12, 2003 10:17 pm

Hell yeah. I'm all about hangin' out in Stanton and delving into the wide world of BBQ. Not to mention, it's only like a 2 hour drive. Can't say for definate of all the days, but am definately planning a couple of em.

Liniah · Post by **Liniah** » Wed Feb 12, 2003 10:52 pm

Hrm, well, I don't even know what job I'll be working at by then. I'm guessing I'll be a 'no' again, but who knows. I can't let you know until like May, though. I'll register now as a 'probably not, but maybe'.

Reika · Post by **Reika** » Thu Feb 13, 2003 12:38 am

Sorry Paul, going to have to take another raincheck, I'm using up most of my vacation and all of my extra cash to go to Jacksonville 4 weeks before then.

Toon · Post by **Toon** » Thu Feb 13, 2003 12:56 am

I'll see about fitting that in. I'm sure I can get out of work early that Friday evening, make the drive up and then head out Sunday afternoon.

Well, mostly sure.

Put me down as 80% likely to make it.

Serious Paul · Post by **Serious Paul** » Thu Feb 13, 2003 3:43 am

Well like last year, whom ever shows, shows. There is no stress to show or what not. Its just going to be a fun weekend. Some guys from work might even stop by one night.

FlameBlade · Post by **FlameBlade** » Thu Feb 13, 2003 3:47 am

As the date changes...

My chances plummeted.

Serious Paul · Post by **Serious Paul** » Thu Feb 13, 2003 3:59 am

Well as the date is a source of friction, and its still a long way off, here is our choices.

May 22nd, 23rd , 24th and 25th.

May 30th, 31st, and June 1st

June 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th.

The very first one is also the weekend of the Alma Highland Festival. Its also a Pay weekend which I like-I rather fancy having Cash to play with, and not just Instant.

Have at it!

Thorn · Post by **Thorn** » Thu Feb 13, 2003 6:15 am

Which of those is Memorial Day? (Yes, I can't be arsed to go find a calendar. Piss off.)

Instant Cash · Post by **Instant Cash** » Thu Feb 13, 2003 2:16 pm

well it depends on your company.

May 30th is actually memorial day. For some fucked up reason though the 26th is the day it is "observed"

I think it is a conspiracy not to give americans a friday off work.

So more than likely corp america will have the 24th, 25th and the 26th off.

Too bad it's a little too far to drive....

Bishop · Post by **Bishop** » Thu May 22, 2003 5:34 am

Did I completely fucking miss this?

Serious Paul · Post by **Serious Paul** » Thu May 22, 2003 11:32 am

No Its canceled, for now. I will let everyone know if it is able to start up again. I will also edit the title of the thread
