The first topic is for the proposed August 5th Anniversary party.
Currently the plan would be for this to be a BYO* event at my house and
I would provide a grill and fridge in case there are not enough coolers.

* = Guinness and tube steaks?   :)

My idea would be that everyone would bring their own refreshments and stuff
for the grill and each person would bring a pot-luck side dish item (fruit,
potato salad, salad, chips, coleslaw, etc.).  Of course we could have it
purely a BYOeverything as well.

Ooooh -- would that mean I can bring a couple jars of Fibblesnork über-garlic
pickles[1]?  I haven't made any in several months and have a real itch to
scratch.  :)  Also been wantin' to develop an über-garlic version of gazpacho
soup.  :)


I would expect that the party would run from early/mid afternoon until early
evening sometime.  Unfortunately it can't go too late because of my wifes
"condition" and the fact that the Baby Shower is the next day.

I take it you don't want any passed-out bodies strewn about on the lawn.  :)


I do have several forms of non-LEGO entertainment including croquet and
badminton.  Of course if the weather cooperates I will have a train running
and have place set up for MOC's.

If this sounds like something you'd be interested in please let me know.

Swingin'!!!

(...) mmmm, did it! Made a proto-test-batch version last week and made what I think may be a final candidate last night.

Well seeing that we did not get to talk about much other than the one issue during the August 12th meeting I thought I would make individual posts about each major topics that had been on the agenda so we could talk about them. I will probably only (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jul-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)
