  • plethora Here's something I just realised...

    This is my list right?

    But I never actually added anything to it.

    I guess something must have distracted me. Jan 9, 2009

  • skipvia He was a post-Yoko vegetarian, but apparently not a strict one. That's hardly the question, though. I can't imagine that his estate would stoop so low as to allow his image to be used hawking sub sandwiches. Someone's gonna get sued... Aug 2, 2008

  • dontcry I wasn't sure where else to put this observation, but I think this spot at least comes close:
    On the place where I get my email (I KNOW it has a name, I just don't know what it is..) There are these ads that show up on the right-hand side (wordie has them). Anyway, one just came up on mine and it was an illustration of a person who only could be identified as John Lennon (circa Yellow Submarine days) holding a giant submarine (!) sandwich that clearly had meat in it. It was an ad for Wawa (they're one of those places that has a gas station and a mini-mart inside...mmmmm). They are having some kind of submarine sandwich sale or something.

    Here's my question: Wasn't John Lennon a vegetarian? I'm confident that at least one wordie will know the answer! Aug 2, 2008

  • dontcry Okay...*hork* Jul 31, 2008

  • reesetee Yikes! Bet they can walk around all by themselves by now. ;-) Jul 31, 2008

  • skipvia DC--as far as I know those pants have never been washed. (Hey--it was the 60s...) Jul 31, 2008

  • plethora That's reassuring, then. Phew.

    P.S. Sakhalinskii, I don't get it. Jul 31, 2008

  • sakhalinskii That French film, except this time starring William Shatner. Jul 31, 2008

  • reesetee Pleth: Oh, you're not the odd one. Paisley is perfectly normal, if you ask me. I just meant to point out that people who enforce mandatory picnics shouldn't be expected to don '60s gear, or even know what it is. ;-)

    Skip: Of all people, you certainly don't need to burnish your '60s creds. I've seen you come up with some of the most arcane 1960s lyrics ever! Jul 31, 2008

  • dontcry Skip - soooo cool! I love, love, love those jeans, man! You are a very good artist. Can you wash them??? Jul 31, 2008

  • bestiary ha, skipvia! i don't know what it is; hippies are so heartwarming—well, the nicer-smelling, less cracked-out ones. (but they're all a little heartwarming.)

    ..
    what's this now? mandatory psychosis? "all persons found to not be tripping balls will be denied admittance to this picnic and forcibly removed/fed the succostash as necessary." Jul 31, 2008

  • skipvia Speaking of 60s clothes--Here's a picture of my son taken several years ago in a pair of white levis that I painted when I was in high school in '68. We called them "psychedelevis."

    Thought I'd burnish my 60s creds... Jul 31, 2008

  • plethora Nawww! I love you too, dc :)

    Really, rt? That makes me feel a little weird... Here I was thinking paisley was normal. Jul 31, 2008

  • reesetee Pleth, it's clear you haven't met The Dictators. The only people who dress like that in my company are the IT people.

    Except that one IT Trekkie.... Jul 31, 2008

  • dontcry Pleth - I love you! You are my second daughter! Jul 31, 2008

  • plethora I'll be there.
    Isn't it a little redundant to require everyone to wear 60s clothes, rt? Doesn't everyone dress like that all the time anyway?

    I mean, surely I can't be the only one. Jul 31, 2008

  • palooka You do good work dc - the entire Wordie nation thanks you! Jul 31, 2008

  • dontcry Sound-off wordies!

    Don't worry pal, I mean, sir, they'll all be here! Jul 31, 2008

  • palooka I'll be bringing all the troops dc. Will you have enough for a reinforced battalion of wordies and an amphibious brigade? If not, well, I won't be responsible for the consequences. They hate being disappointed. Jul 31, 2008

  • dontcry You are forbidden to not to get back to me.

    Oh, no...what happened?? I've become mandatory-ized... Arrrrggh? *goes insane* Jul 31, 2008

  • reesetee Well, since it's a mandatory picnic, I think we should have all of them. ALL. And everyone should be required to wear 60s clothing. Or else.

    Let me check with the dictators and I'll get back to you. Jul 30, 2008
