A few of the girls wanted to buy you a beer to wash down the brownies. Pull up a chair and enjoy the company.

I never did figure out how the waitresses at the Oktoberfest could carry so many steins at once, although I did see how they picked them up. They set them on the bar and then bent their knees to get under them.

Of course the problem is that everybody has their own place to draw that line. Some people find scatology hilarious, while some don't care for it at all.

Note to kicksy: WOW--your 'korner' has turned into a city. AMAZING! You certainly have re-gentrified this area of Switzerland. Kudos...

Good morning CK. Or actually good afternoon now in your case. Its just after 9 am here. Glad to see you stop by. How are you feeling today? Oh... you mentioned awhile back about where I grew up and I answered but it got buried possibly before you saw it. I grew up in a small mountain (very remote) town in Northern California called Weaverville, Ca.
J... er.. I mean Try knows where it is.

I am having two champagne waterfalls set up for the grand opening of the monorail next week. Things were slowed a bit by the pyramid drilling.
One will be champagne and the other sparkling cider for those who do not partake.

Kicks, you run a high class operation. I'll arrange for a chamber group to play incidental music in the background.

Hey PAO... if you are around stop in and say hello. Feel free to stop by the kitchen and I am certain that you can give the chefs some hints on how to prepare the best steaks. Dinner is a comp on me. IN FACT everyone can eat a lovely meal gratis.

Sorry I got tied up at work. This one will be sent out shortly. Anybody else can let Guido know and he will take care of your orders as I have to scoot. If I don't see you all this weekend, everyone have a great weekend and may your team win.

I believe this wine will pair very nicely with the porterhouse.

Hey, nobody was offended. It's just that different people find different things funny. Friends learn to adjust to each other as they get to know each other better. It's an ongoing process and everybody has to make some accommodations. You are appreciated and your contributions are welcome.

Soooo.... you are saying that dred's gift is creepy?
Ok.. so I am building a 12,000 square foot mother-in-law complex in the back and I have told them that the bidets on order should be returned in case you decide to stay but I am keeping dred's bidet gift in the main house.

Oh, dollink kicks...I don't want to put you to any trouble, of course, but maybe you should just take the bidet out of my master bath and leave the others in the guest rooms. I am definitely in the minority about bidets--most people love them. In fact, Peter would be upset if the bidet in our master bath didn't have one--so, I mean, if it wouldn't be any trouble...could you just tell them to send in the bidets... (I hear a song there: "Send in the Bidets." I'll work on the lyrics and bring them over to the main house, so when you have your next musicale in the ballroom, you can introduce my latest writing venture.

Is Glynis Johns still around to sing it? Steven Sondheim wrote "Send in the Clowns" just for her husky voice. I was just a little kid when I saw her and Deborah Kerr in "A Vacation from Marriage" (the American title of the British film) and I was in love with both of them.
