Ugh... that was a LONG beerrun. Blue Moon, anyone?

[Inquartata]

Ugh... that was a LONG beerrun. Blue Moon, anyone?

No, no...I see no compelling reason to sit in an ice-filled basin.

Don't let me stop you, though.

[Nusy]

*sings* B-double E-double R-U-N, beerrun! B-double E-double R-U-N, beerrun! All we need is a ten and a five, keys and a car and a sober driver, B-double E-double R-U-N, beerrun!


*end o' song*

[Inquartata]

For her next performance, Nusy will clamber up onto the table, place a lampshade on her head and perform an impromptu can-can...

[magic_moose]

Yes she can !!!

[Nusy]

No, but I may sing some more obscure songs.


"Home is behind, the world ahead.... and there are many paths to tread..."

[magic_moose]

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

[Go? Fencing?]

Hey, when did this party turn into a poetry reading?

[Inquartata]

Drunken dancing is still funnier than drunken singing.

[magic_moose]

Poetry is fully appropriate in a mead hall.

However, I am down to only 6 bottles of mead, so... Rob Roys anyone? Orange bitters works well.

[Inquartata]

There's too much light in the hall. I suggest you send your mead to me for proper storage.

[I_luv_saber]

Mead? Mead is good. But right now it's whiskey shootin' time! Keep it cheap, Wild Turkey!

[magic_moose]

Actually, I think I saw some Eagle Rare 10 Year Old Single Barrel in the bar. It really isn't that much more. I'm having tawny port though. It's the perfect apres fencing wind down on a snowy night.

[Inquartata]

I knew a girl named Tawny once. Her port was quite nice. As was her starboard.

I won't mention her fore or aft.

[JackOfHearts]

I won't mention her fore or aft.

Of course not! A gentleman never tells!


After all, a picture is worth a thousand words.

[I_luv_saber]

And often a slap in the face....

I mean... what?

[Inquartata]

Second base.

[magic_moose]

Who's on First.

[JackOfHearts]

I don't know. THIRD BASE!!!

[magic_moose]

I Don't Know is on Third.
