The wife and I would kiss each other’s ass goodbye
Where can I get some of those 4-hour pills?
Well, wasn’t that a fun way to kick off a Saturday morning? NOT…
Those pills?–Are they xactly 4 hours or do you have ten or fifteen minutes leeway?
Get a couple of friends together and drink all the wine I’ve been saving for that special occasion.
Been there, P.I.B. What are you, like 58? Ya sit on the ground cross-legged, in a circle? Glasses?-who needs ’em? Specs OR flutes.
JohnC,
I’m in the wine business and have managed to salt away some pretty good sh*t. No, I’m not like 58, no, I don’t sit on the ground cross-legged in a circle, specs or flutes, wtf? What are you, like jealous?
Setup a conference call with the extended family to begin at the 2nd hour. Scream! Panic. Pray. Actually, the video demonstrates that it doesn’t really matter – everyone is exiting (at least I’d hope that I was very close to the epi-center). After saying goodbye and I love you to family & friends — hearing their voices one last time, I’d probably tear into the Halloween candy that’s been calling out to me;… and then just hug my ferret and listen to music til the end… I’m not really sure if I’d want to know 4 hours in advance. Bleah! – I don’t even want to think about it..
Aw, Paul,it’s just my teenage position with friends passing rotgut with a kegvan parked nearby. I’m not a big drinker now, but I DO admire your stash, bet it’s great, and I KNOW it makes you see the world better.
Oh, PIB, btw, the original description is, of course, me. I guess I thought we might have commanality beyond social issues.
Paul whats the oldest bottle of wine that you have,we have a place in Georgia called Chateau Elan that has some very good wine,the wine tour is a must if you ever make it there
I’d grab the best looking man that I could find, a 24 pack, turn up the tunes and close the blinds. What the h3ll, might as well go out with a bang.
Well, I had an answer, but obviously Bella has other plans for me…
Write a Will, while eating chocolate. Write detailed and specific instructions on how to take care of my pets when I’m gone, while eating chocolate. Say goodbye to my family, while eating chocolate.
Ana, I’m noticing a theme here.
@ JohnC: My addled brain isn’t following what you’re saying, sorry to be so confused.
@ Infi: The oldest bottle of wine I have is from 1982, and I have a handful of different wines from Bordeaux from that year.
My mother taught me if you can’t say anything nice about (___), then don’t say anything at all. Regarding Chateau Elan…
No offense, we all have different views about wine, about food, about TV programs, about women, not to mention politics…
Hey Paul,
If YOU”RE addled, then I may be, too. When I saw your post about a wine party as a last hurrah, I went to my youth at a political rally–sitting in a circle on the ground, passing around not a joint, but bottles of Cold Bear wine. A Budweiser van with spigots on the side sat nearby and I learned to love politics. And the Cold Bear was necessarily bitter so that I might know sweetness when I taste it.
The reference to glasses was that we didn’t have to pour–into a glass–, then I realized “glasses” might be misconstrued as spectacles, but then I realized–we didn’t need THEM either.
BTW, when I browse your posts, I sometimes picture you to be a guy about like me. What’s weird, and good too, is the same goes for KLAW. My organized labor experience with the INCLUSIVE United Auto Workers (inclusive means we want YOU to work right beside us, tho GM may not agree) imbued me with my take on social as well as economic justice. But obviously, like you, I must be open to ALL personal thought(s) brought out in the open. Otherwise I’m just fooling myself. That is the hardest part of freedom–other than its defense.
