BadSax
enjoys 3 martini lunches
First let me say that Carlisle of course ruled and http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/MrT.gif ‘s who choose not to come. Unfortunately, the weather did not rule. Saturday was rainy and Sunday was like a hurricane up on the hill where they stuck us this year.
To everyone who enjoyed a cold beverage of some type, you are all more then welcome in fact, thank you for drinking them! http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/beer.gif Between John and myself, we had exactly 100 bottles of various beer, a few assorted liquors, two types of juice, water, coke, diet coke, sprite, dr. pepper, ice tea, ginger ale and let us not forget the 3 bottles of good champagne and 7 bottles of crappy champagne. Not to mention the dozen glass champagne flutes I brought (although we had one glass fatality on the trip down) and the big plastic Dixie cups (that we didn’t wind up needing).
After the trip back to Mass, the official count was 20 bottles of beer, half of the 64 sodas and little waters, no champagne! All of the remaining 11 glasses and all but one of the big Dixie cups.
Thanks to everyone who didn’t throw leftover food at me while I was playing my horn. I promise (if you would like), I’ll play again next year, and I swear… I’ll have fully functional equipment this time. Let’s plan a better game for next year, we need something smaller then the little yellow smiley face ball to try and shoot into my horn.http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/bouncingball.gif I also think I should have something I can shoot back at whoever is throwing the ball at me. Maybe equip my flute with a rocket or something... I’m sure Sharon’s son John can build me something for next year. Perhaps Liza can figure out some sort of point system...
To the stripper who insulted Steve because he didn’t like your dance...http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/boobies.gif I’m very, very sorry I didn’t pay $15 to see you flip out on him. I’m sure it was much more entertaining then ‘your dance’.
To Chris Kizer, you (and I) are the reason people should never buy used cars that were owned by a rental company. You managed to use up the best years of the poor Taurus’s life in one long weekend. Congrats! http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/burnout.gif Oh, and your stickers ruled.
To Bill Hamilton, thank you for sponsoring the hard luck award.http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/yes2.gif It was returned to its rightful owner (myself) after I dropped “the reason I got it”, back off in CT.http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/monkes.gif
To my MK8 peeps from NE. Thank you for tolerating Amber’s ‘crazy time’ http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/coo-coo.gif on the way to the hotel on I-81. For those of you who don’t know. I hadn’t slept in almost two days prior to Carlisle, http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/coffee.gif so Amber drove down. Well, after picking John up in CT, and the two of them fighting for every minute that I can remember being awake.http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/scream.gif She freaked out and for around 40 minutes, refused to go slower then 90 mph... At one point we passes a group of modded Mustangs who were obviously going to the same place and they filed in behind our little Lincoln processional only to give up trying to follow us after maybe a mile. I guess we were just going a little too fast for their thin Mustang blood...http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/chicken.gif Thank you also for letting me parcel out my stuff between your cars. All the booze and musical things took up a lot of space.
To the cleaning staff at the hotel...http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/toiletclaw.gif just THANKS! http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/lol.gif
To John, (Sharon’s son) thanks for the little Sax statue...http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/yes2.gif it’s sitting right next to my hard luck trophy on my coffee table.
To everyone else, who should be mentioned! It was great to meet some new people and even better to see some of you again.http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/wave2.gif Thank you all for a great time, I totally think it’s the people not the cars that make this event special.http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/worship3.gif The cars are just an excuse for us to all get together! http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/cheers.gif http://www.markviii.org/~badsax/smileys/bouncing1.gif
My pictures will follow soon! (not like every other time I say that, and it’s a month later… LoL II)
