We could have a party.....did it one year and what a good time
If you're going to be home and on your pc stop by and join in.
If your are at a computer elsewhere and want to join in.......do that too
It's for everyone
BYOB
I've got 5 Belikins left
NY gal... email me mail at
[email protected]
We have 1 Beliken and some One Barrel.
I popped in a couple yrs ago and had a blast!!
Let the Party begin
Thanks for the invite...now I have a party for tooting my tooting horn.
What time?
...I'll hafta content myself with dirty dancing from 10PM-10AM at the San Pedro Lions Den.
:p
pix - we want pix - or better yet, a webcam !
Alrighty then........then party is on
Time ..hm I have to work, grrrrr. Start without me. I'll catch up when I get home
Denny YOU HAVE MAIL
Bill you sure have plans galore
Huge storm here on the west coast - going on 2 inches of rain here in Sacramento over the last day and much more coming. My plans for New Years in Lake Tahoe with my friend are not going to happen due to blizzard conditions. Those 60,000 plus partiers are going to have to carry on without us! So, I'll check in on this party NYgal.
How do you guys save those Belikins and One Barrel for so long? My stash is usually gone within a couple weeks after I return (usually by friends and family members). Oh, and I made the mistake of offering some construction guys who were doing work on my house, some One Barrel.
Special Things for Special People at Special Times, that's how
Some time ago, tucked way back in the dark recesses of the frig , where green things frequently grow, I discovered one last "nectar of the Mayan gods" left from quite some time ago.(maybe 2 or 3 trips ago)
DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME - if it's been there awhile (and God knows it's blasphemous to keep one so long)do not attempt to open & consume. That sucker virtually exploded in a brown syrupy goo all over me.....what a mess! Good thing Mom doesn't live here!
Yes, KLC, you are right: I need to learn the art of conservation of my special stash! Now, I am stuck with domestic spirits, Tequila and Mexican beer (yes, imported, but if you are in California, it really isn't). Next best thing. Guess the only remedy to running out is to return to Belize. I always bring my Jose Cuervo with me on vacation, and haven't yet met a local at my hotel there that refused a shot!
live it up - go get some Patron Gold
what kinda mex ya got?
Wow Laurie... you have some problems there. I just heard on the radio that tonight, before midnight CA was finally going to break off into the Pacific. And to make matters worse, Sacramento was breaking off to be it's own island!
I'M IN FOR THE PARTY. We have temps today into the mid 50s with wind and rain. Chagrin river in danger of flooding with all the snow melt. Any way, Happy New Year to everyone. :p
The more the merreier
It's too bad storms and mini disasters/major disasters have to bring us all in front of our comuters
for New Years Eve, but I'm glad we will all be together.....lets MERGE into the New Year !!
Another island in the Pacific...
We will be checking in. Having a party at our house here in Dallas. High today 72 low 61. We will sit in the hot tub and wish we were in AC.
Sea ya'll later....
Where did I get that accent
:p
NY Gal,
That's MY accent!!!!
Sorry I will miss ya'll tonight. I'm heading off to Jacksonville to watch my NOLES beat WVU. Tonight is the pep rally and of course fireworks at midnight.
Happy New Year EVERYONE!!!! I wish you all midnight kisses---- especially Denny and Thornton! (See you soon Bill!).
Cheerz!
Thanks for the invite NYGal! This is the first year we don't have any plans or offers
So this makes my day!!!!
Is this a costume party? I see Denny is the reverse Lone Ranger or is it a negative of Denny in a mask?
Who knows - maybe WE will wear our birthday suits to this party
We have 4 fresh Belikin Drafts from last week.
I must hang Moose's dred lock in a place of honor!!!
Yeah! PARTY! PARTY! PARTY!
ok... I'll ask... klc, how did you do that? Very cool! I'm jealous! laugh
ah, I figured it out... pretty cool...
u be down rite smaht, der judj
I just heard a cork pop! Pour please.
Vicki I knew I had heard that ya'll from somewhere......I borrowed it, now it's your'n
( she's not even here LOL )
HavinFun......warm welcomes
Moose would like that dread on here......wish we could get him on
I remember you being the bartender one year Chloe........I'll pour
Warm welcomes - literally!!!
We're running the A/C.
We got the champagne chillin and the steaks are grillin
Party on everyone!!!!!!!
We're grilling steaks too.....yummmmm
Watchout, I'm gonna have wine and I don't generally drink...this could get funny
I'll buy the first round $$$$$$
I'm putting a pizza in the oven. Want a slice later?
Nygal you are doing wine? OMG! this could be fun.
I'm working on the salad and baked potato and the wine!!!!!
Just talked to Windjammer - she should be home later and maybe will join us. I hope so - we have spent the last few NYE together and it won't be the same.
Hey WJ I have some Herring and crackers for midnight(in honor of TZ) - I'll make Houdini have your share!
I got a Snickers and Diet pepsi
Klcman, is that Paisano sitting beside you?
yup he's polishing conch shells and just finished varnishing the cane.
How much is Paisano charging for conch shells this holiday?
Oh Oh the wine may start talking....YIKES
Klc who is that next to Piasano?
I'm in this year too!
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!!!
I bet I can stay awake longer then all of you too.
Just 'cause ya got up later
let's see - ummmmm on Paisano's left? why that's Island Dog cleaning up the ol' easel
conch shells in ample supply, so the price is only $5 BZ tonite special
Happy New Year all! Still raining cats and dogs here in Northern Calif.
Denny: That would be cool if we broke off into an island in the Pacific! No flooding, but tons of snow in the Sierras - too bad you can't get up there from here!
Hi Hope: Aloha and Haoli Makahiki Hou (think that is how you say Happy New Year in Hawaiian). Think you guys are the last to ring in the new year after us on the west coast. Talked to my friend in Kahana last night for a couple of hours. He says they are getting lots of rain lately too.
Grilling steak and shrimp here and having a glass of good Merlot. Decided to let Jose Cuervo take a rest tonight!
Howdy! Just had some good eats, sipping a good Amaretto Sour...........Party party...
Happy New Year to all.
Hey Bill and Moose how's the action in San Pedro going?
Happy New Year's to all! Just finished some nice filets and lobster tails, and dreaming of going to AC in 5 weeks!
Feliz Año Nuevo
Feliz Año Nuevo
Feliz Año Nuevo
Happy New Year.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! (again)
We couldn't even watch the NY celebration out here as we be taped delayed.
Poor poor Hopie and fam! :rolleyes:
Island Dog is sharpening his pencil and capturing all the details.. not cleaning up the ol' easel
Maybe you might recognize yourself or friends in his next cartoon book...
Think I see my friend Juicer of the Jungle (from Winnipeg) sitting next to Island Dog... hey the whole gang from BCs is there... move over and make room for another...
:p
HAPPY NEW YEAR SAN PEDRO

Hey Hopeless, keep waiting dear and the New Year will reach you. Goodnight my New Year is here.

Pam, did you ever make it out to Denver a year or so ago when you contacted me?
3 more hours of NOISE in the neighborhood. uuggghhh
HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL!
Heard from Juicer earlier this evening and he said it was pouring rain there tonite.. but not to worry, he had an emergency stash of One Barrel and felt that he would be able to make it over to Fidos..
I am sure that the rain really did not hamper too many plans and that the people in SP would take it in stride..
Good nite all... HAPPY NEW YEAR..
You are SO BAD Laurie!
Wally was GREAT by the way!!!
Thanks so much for chattin, I look forward to seeing you again too.
I'm fading fast and have another 2 hours to go. I guess I am Hopeless tonight cause I wanna go to bed. lol

Yes, Vicki watched the NOLES today!!! Had a great time in Jax last night too. I was at my Dad's, and at midnight, we could the fireworks from downtown Jax, Mayport (the Naval Station) and Jax beach. It was just beautiful, and really loud!!
I thought of you all here, and wish everyone the BEST in 2005! You know, in my 3 plus years on this board, I have made some incredible friends that I'll keep forever. Hope to make some more this year!
Now, I'm on the big countdown... 4 sleeps until I see my husband for the first time since football season started

Greetings and Jappy New Year from beautiful San Pedro. We did have a little liquid sunshine last evening but all in all it was a delightful time. The queens held court at Casa Picasso last night and we only ran off one table of tourists who probably should be allowed in San Pedro anyway. Lovey was in rare form so it made for an eventful evening. Best of all, te food was to die for. Our dear friends, Chris & Jen had a special menu and even found a place for us all to gather and we have too many blonde queens I think that can't make up their minds as to where we're all going to go until the very last minute. But I'm here to tell you that we could ot have chosen a better place. The best shrimp bisque you have EVE put in your mouth. They had a specail menu (which I wish they would do once a month) and everything was awesome! James (our waiter) took very good care of us as he always does, and the entire wait staff was great. The very best diry martinis on the island come from this bar and Trevor kept up with us! If in your visits, you haven't been to Casa Picasso, you have GOT to go. By the way, be sure to order the cracked coconut for desset and tell Chris I sent you as I get a commission (yeah, right) but no kidding, it is sinful and wonderful at the same time! Wow! Wish you could all have been here for it.
Something happens to the keyboard every single time we open too many bottles of wine replaying the events here on the island....come join us soon!
Hey Lady D,
I'm not blonde anymore so give me a call the next time court is being held. I'll make the decision of where the Queens are to dine even if I can't be with you all. Although... I must add... that I too LOVE Casa Picasso and 10 ta 1 you would be dining there a bunch!!! Any "coronations" comin up that I should want to attend??? Have you seen Pam lately?
Aloha Ms. Vicki! How was the game???
HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL once again from soggy Maui! (Sure glad I'm not a tourist here this week!)
NY, don't scrutinize my post as I'm drinking a bit of wine right now!
not to mention whining about poor poor me not being on da Island of AC too!
.....passes Hope the gouda
MMMMMMM, YUUUUUUMMMMM!
(lickin and smakin the lips cause nobody is lookin)
Thanks klc!
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE....
Didn't quite get to the sock drawer here, but did get the entire house clean, laundry done and even worked today at home. Was also good at being a lounge lizard on the couch with a movie marathon on TV. Nothing much else to do when you are sick and its pouring rain outside. If I were on AC, I definitely would have been at Casa Picasso. Yum. Love that place! Instead, I got to listen to the fireworks through Hope's phone in Maui last night!
Them fireworks still be bammin here Laurie!
Oyyyy, Tylenol PM... please... take me away!!!
I'm not gonna say Happy New Year again, I'm afraid this bammin will go on for weeks if I do!
Kona winds and firecrackers tonight... uugghhh. Guess it will be a light sleep tonight, a dirty street tomorrow and NOT a beach day either. Poor poor Hopie! Got anymore cheese klc???
I knew a woman a few years ago that moved to Hawaii. She was very excited about the move. She moved, got a job, settled in, but after 6 or 7 months she was ready to move back to the mainland. She saw everything there was to see, and said only so many hours to go sit on the beach.
How are you finding island life Hope?
out of Gouda, but here's some Manchego
Denny,
Thats a loaded question for Hopie.... She's on the wrong darn island!!!!!!
Her friends, her "family", the Queens, etc ..... they aren't in Hawaii. We miss you Hopie!! (I doubt we want to know what her phone bill is, she has called me several times.... from the beach!)
Vicki
Good morning Ms Vicki and Happy New Year, now get your butt back down here! And dear Ms Hope, we toasted you and thanked you for a great dinner. Someone said it was your idea to get the check and I should warn you before you open it that our bar bill far exceeded our dinner bill. We couldn't remember by that time, if you were buying just dinner or both, so we just signed all the checks and gave them to Chris. He said he'd collect from you and tell you that you sure missed a Queenly gala.
Lady D---
I'll be there Wednesday for dinner!!!!
Can hardly wait!
Cheerz!
Ya just had to offer me "that" particular cheese klc??? Ya got me all sappy now cause I've got memories linked to that chees...
To dream... the impossible dream...
To fight... the unbeatable foe...
To bear... with unbearable sorrow...
To run... where the brave dare not go...
bla, bla, bla and so forth...
Actually... THANKS klc! Those memories are GRAND! Good thing I'm not drinkin wine tonight too or I probably would have posted the whole dang song! HA
Denny,
Ms Vicki is right, this is not my favorite island and never has been. Of all islands in Hawaii... if I "had" to live here (lol) I'd choose Kaua'i I think. Maui and all the Islands here rock when your a tourist and we've rocked them several times prior to moving here. Dan has always loved it here though and he be my man. Unless... ya want to marry me at Caribe Island and take me away from this big ole rock city? Huh, huh, do ya, do ya, huh???
We do spend a lot of time at the beach when not working and I don't tire of that (even though I'm more of a pool and boat kinda gal). I DID finally tell Dan the only way I can "beach it" again is if I can get a laptop so I can work from the beach. hehehe All I need now is to purchase a "connection" for it and I'm rockin again on the board during normal hours and can finally e-mail people again as well! Yaaaahooooooo, it's getting a little better everyday! (Hey, can anyone give me good suggestions of a "connection" to buy so I'm on line everywhere on Island?)
Lady Dee, I feel privileged and honored you would even consider me paying the bill for the Queens Court evening out held at Casa Picasso on New Years Eve! How totally sweet of you all to think of me!!! Thank you!
However...
I already sucked up BIG TIME a couple of years ago! lol I do however know a wannabe (or two or three) who would be more than happy ta pay for the Queens night out! I'll forward the tab on from Chris and we'll see if they REALLY want to play!
My treat when I'm on Island next time though!!! I very much look forward to it too!
I wanna be there Wednesday!!!
Here we go again... poor poor Hopie!
Hey Mosquitorose, good to see you and Happy New Year to you too
and on and on and on .....babble babble
happy new year to everyone!
we enjoyed the heck out of bringing in the new year, perhaps i enjoyed it a lil toooo much. lets just say it was bad ice in my drinks. (pls, lets just say that)
this thread made me miss hopie in hi, dee in sp, vicki at the noles game (i definitly thought about her there), chloe in the valley, silk on cc, bill in his sock drawer, and everyone else.
big happy new year to all of my fellow socialites and boarders.
hmmmmm marry you Hope? Well, let's see here... do you come with a dowry?
Denny, Denny, Denny. You have been down the primrose lane on two, count em, two prior occasions. WHO ENDED UP WITH THE DOWRY?????
well, after the divorces it sure wasn't me!
