Conference back40::soapbox

    I vote we have a boxbash in Cincinnati next year.  

Ok, Steve.  Start saving up to buy plane tix for all of us.

re: .1

You bringing the Skyline Chili???

Bob

>    I vote we have a boxbash in Cincinnati next year.  

Great idea! Where are they going to move it to?

    
    as far as I know Cincinnati will be staying in OH.

Thass what I wuz afraid of . . .

    I'll supply the Skyline chili...my treat.  And for those who like beer,
    I will whip up a special homebrew for the occation.  
    
    Sorry, but airfare is not included in the deal.  8^)

    occaZion

    I like my spelin' betta...

    re: .7 - Would that be a batch of Soap Suds?  
    
    Light amber color with a heady, hoppy flavor but too much will leave a
    bad taste in your mouth.  
    
    Brian

    
    It's been too long since the last boxbash.

    Well, the last one I was at was quite titillating..... Yes, I agree.

    
    Bash at Glenn's house.

    OK.

    how DARE you speak about breasts when talking to the babes. apologize
    right now.

    All this talk of ears is very troubling to me.
    

    Wait till it happens to you someday, if you're very lucky. *^)

    Dan,
    
    Just pull your beanie down over your ears and duck :-)
    
    

    
    Considering the relative disparity in height of the involved
    individuals, it was more of a Leaning-Tower-of-Pisa tilt than a duck...

    i wished i could spend a day somewhere where there were at least a few 
    noters of this file (like CO, GA, or MA). i'd have a bash just to get
    rid of some of this venison suasage. 125lbs of summer sausage it a LOT. 

    there's several of us here in the bay area, too, and I'd bet Robert and
    I'd both eat venison...
    
    DougO

    dougo, i don't do kaliph. nothing personnal. but i just don't like it
    out there. MA ain't much better. but with some cheese, crackers, and
    suds we could sure enough down the hatch a few rolls of this stuff.

    I heard that they eat a lot of sausage in the bay area.

    and these are BIG sausages.

    You better hide them.

<---  Hey... uh... never mind.

	What, you never heard of FedX?

Jim

    
    <--------
    
    My sentiments exactly Jim!!!!!!
    

    How about a trade for some home-made jams and preserves?
    
    -b

    
    It's a lie.  Haag hasn't got a 125 lb sausage.  bb
    

    That would cause severe chafing to be sure.

    >>It's a lie.  Haag hasn't got a 125 lb sausage.  bb
    
    your right. i've only 122lbs. those that were "pleasant" to me will
    most likely get some with their Xmas card this year. you didn't make
    the list.

    
    So when's the next boxbash?
    
    Somebody give me an excuse; I haven't been to a party in ages 8^).

    
    You gonna bring some wine???
    
    :) :)
    

    
    Mebbe the 17 bottles will then turn into 35?
    
    I don't remember seeing Jesus at the party, but he musta been there
    performing that loaves and fishes trick.

    Sounds good to me!  Absent our 'BoxTenor, MzDeb will be expected to
    step womanfully into the breach & provide trilling entertainment.
    
    Personally, I hope this troubles me greatly.
    
    |-{:-)
    

	Was that tittilating entertainment........Oh my...%^)

    Keep a civil tongue, Teeks!! :-)
    

	Just can't help myself...........I'mmmmmmmmm a baaaaad boy !!!

	I have this reputation to keep up ya know......%^)

	Maybe Glen will say a prayer for me (or at me) .....%^)

	There isn't a prayer that will save ya Teek. And I would never say a
prayer at you, that would be rude....

	Wheeeeeeeeeeeew, I feel better already.

	I really don't want to be saved TYVM.....%^), I am
having far too much fun.

    
    I'm beginning to think it really might be a good idea to have a
    miniminiminiprechristmasbash Thursday night at Amory's or Ciro's or
    somewhere suchlike.

    
    
    not at ciro's!!!!!!!!!!
    
    

    
    OK, not Ciro's.  Amory's?  Scupper's?  And whazza buby?

    
    Oh {ahem} nevvah mind.  The Buby.  Yes, or The Buby.

    
    
    {smaq}
    
    

    
    Suggestions being entertained for date and location of Steve Jong's
    going-away-bash.  January timeframe.
    
    Anybody else leaving?  I don't suppose we can get gene out again 8^(.  

    Deb:
    
    Gene'll go anywhere if you're paying his way  :-)

    >Anybody else leaving?  I don't suppose we can get gene out again 8^(.  
    
    nope. timing is real bad. unless ya'll wanna have it in colorado
    springs i'll have to pass on this 'n. i've already attended two bashes
    past my initial "gonna quit date" so i feel pretty lucky to have hung
    on this long and meet the folks i did. i owe a debt of gratitude to
    many for that. especially lady di and 'tine.

    						
    Friday (tomorrow) after work Teeks will be f^ted at Amory's.  See 41.302
    for details, sketchy as they may be 8^).  We're shooting for the back
    room.
        
    If you're new and don't know who to look for, just remember that I'm 
    the tall blonde 8^).
    
    Oh, this isn't the `dreams' note 8^)?
    
    

    @ any rate, I'm planning to swing by on my way home...  'BoxBuffoons
    come around only so often, like comets, and need to be obsoived &
    honoured.
    
    Or so I've been told...

    And NO, I meant Teeks, not ME.

    Oral Exploit SNARF!

    Well a fine bash was had by all... the venerable Teek (quite a nice
    guy), Glen, Dan, Brian (the birthday boy with the hot date), Terrie
    (whose cat has nipples), Mz. Deb... it was nice meeting you all!!!
    
    -b

    
    And btw, Terrie's hair looked lovely. 
    
    Furthermore, I was most relieved to hear about her cats being diagnosed
    with a case of the nipples.
    

    
    Oh, and Dr.Dan - shame on you for bringing the laser pointer again 8^).

       That wuzn't a laser pointer MzDeb -- I wuz just glad to see ya!!
    
    OBTW, plans are proceeding nicely for the surprise visit entailing 15
    minutes of exkvisit pleasure for you.  30 or more if you're really nice.
    
    Of course, this could take up to a couple months to gestate...

    Hey...on the subject of boxbashen...John (LONDON::) Bridge's band

    January 19th.  I will be attending, if anyone is interested in joining
    me (not that I'm coming apart, mind you 8^)).
    
    The Sit 'n' Bull has Guinness on tap, if that sways anyone 8^).

      Watch it lady, or I'll insist on going even a greater distance....!

    cower from here on out whenever she sees someone that was there. :}
    
    
    

    
    
    	table dancing again Terrie?
    
    
    

    We hadda pay $20 to Amory's to get her spike-heel marks buffed offen it!
                                                                         

	Worse Jim, she told us about the nipple story that involved her cats...

    Ya see, Terrie is a cat lover and worries about her feline companions a
    lot.  It appears she was doing a mammary check on her cats and found
    lumps whihc as we all know need to be checked out ASAP in case there
    are any problems.  Terrie took her cat to the vet where by he announced
    that the poor little kitty wasn't really sick but had a healthy case of
    the nipples.  Seeing as the kitty in question is a male, it shouldn't
    have them.  We all assured Terrie that the male of most species
    inclusing humans has them also and from all appearances, we were
    healthy.  :-)
    
    Brian - story embellished only a little :-)  

    Sorry, could not resist divulging the whole truth and then some :-)

    
    The best part was when everyone at the table lifted his shirt to
    demonstrate 8^).

re: .82

Did you get to see lots of furry chests then?

I will be in the GMA 2/10 - 2/19.  Currently unavailable 2/10, 2/14, 2/19.

I'll leave it to our resident party planner to work out the details.

re: .95

Deb,  Some folks from another conference have suggested that same evening
at Amory's (sp?).  So if we make it that date, we can cover both at the same
time.

    great time, and an absolute RIOT!!  (Ask Jim Sadin...he and wife had so

    nice 2nd anniversary of your 29th birthday!!!
    
    -b

    
    I shall endeavor to attend, but please remember to boot me out by
    7-ish, ok 8^)?
    
    We also need to arrange a did-somebody-say-party for next week when the
    18 or so members of the Richardson clan are here.  I'm looking at
    Friday February 10th, perhaps at Scupper's.  Any other suggestions?

> Any other suggestions?

Sure. How 'bout a Cow Hampshire dive for a change. Haven't been at one
of those since before the holidays. Glenn knows DB Coopers, but there
are others as well.

    
    but glenn is staying in boxboro mass and doesn't want to drive...and
    unless he gets chauffuer (sp) service, we aint going very far...
    
    

    Yeah but he can dress up as Dierdra and wear a pretty gown and coax
    some pervert taxi driver into giving her a free ride!

    We are staying at the Boxboro Host, now a Holiday Inn. Who is Dierdra?
    
    
    Glenn/Deirdre/Pamela/Franny/Ned/Dierdre/Anton/Sean/Alice/Jimi/Pauline/Rex/
    Nathan/Melanie/Ursula/Hildegard/Nigel/Boutros Boutros
    
    

    
    
    Tonight's box bash is hereby cancelled....sorry. :(
    
    
    
    Terrie
    

    
    
    and i am sure the holiday inn has a bar of some sort...and it is right
    off of route 495...easy access and all...
    
    

    
    I'm willing to do a recce of the bar at the Boxboro Hotel/Motel/Holiday
    Inn if anyone wants to join me 8^).
        

    .159
    Whats a "recce"? Boy, I know I haven`t been up there in a while but the
    grammer is becoming increasingly hard to understand. Maybe I shouldn`t
    read notes any more. 

    And the grammar is getting even worse...
            ^^^^^^^
    -b

    
    I'm sorry, Sargeant-Major, I don't understand your banter 8^).
    
    A recce is slang for a reconnaissance mission.
    
    
    I shall endeavor to speak less colloquially in the future.
    
    
    
    
    
                                                

    .161
    So whip me beat me I`ll enjoy it.

    .162
    Excuse me Miz Lauer but when I was in the service slang for
    reconnaissance was a "recon". A recce sounds like slang for a candy
    bar.

Since Terrie isn't feeling like a bash tonight, having
a mondo combination event next week sounds like a fine
idea.  What's a mutually agreeable locale where the
'Boxers of the PRM can find common ground with the Live
Free Or Die crowd?

    
    We're not talking American/military slang, Mr.Crane.

    .166
    Opppps, I lost my head!

    
    RE: .166
    
    It was "recon" when I was in the (U.S.) Army as well deb dear....

    
    I repeat, we're not talking American/military slang here, Mr.Krawiecki!
                                                                          

    how come ::crane's apostrophies go the wrong way? :-)

    
    You too????  What's with the "Mr. Krawiecki" stuff?? 
    
    The implication from your response was that "recce" was an
    Americanization...
    

    Because that`s the way I like em.

"Recce" looks Italian to me.  Pronounced "retch-eh."

    This is beginning to cause traumatic stress for me.....

>>"Recce" looks Italian to me.  Pronounced "retch-eh."

	dat's what i was thinkin'.  except that my friends would
	contend it's "ray-chay".

    
    RE: .174
    
    Which "me" are you refering to?
    

    >The implication from your response was that "recce" was an
    >Americanization...
    
    You're going to have to back this up, because not only was there no such
    implication, I specifically stated that it was NOT American slang.
                                        
    
    Andy dear 8^).

    Recce:
    
	    Is apparently a term related to locating studs in a bar.
    
    -b

    
    Sorry mz_deb...
    
    Your .166 was not clear as to which word in .164 you were responding
    to... 
    
      Or is it just that I'm being Polish again?
    

    
    <-- Would that be furniture, shoe, or nail?

> "Recce" looks Italian to me.  Pronounced "retch-eh."

This reminds me - What's happened to Ciarochi?

    If it is Italian perhap`s Miz. Lauer had a different meaning but I also
    thought she used reconnassance [sic] as what she ment. 

    
    Is it just me, or is the denseness level high in here today?
    
    Let me repeat myself for the last time:
    
    "recce" is slang for reconnaissance.  It is not American slang in any
    way, shape, or form; specifically, since this appears to be the
    problem, it is not American Military Slang.
    
    Are we clear now?
    
    I'm done.

    .183
    Then who`s slang is it?

    
    Brit slang. Pronounced rek-ee.

Perhap`s???

Who`s???

(fergit aboot the silly gravakzent fer the moment)

    So tell, pray, is there going to be some local drowning-our-communal-
    sorrows without Terrie tonite?  I'm 'way behind here, and a fast scan
    of a .TXT dump of today's 'Boxmaunderings leads me to believe that
    perhaps the Bar@the Holiday Inn in Marlboro might be of some local
    interest...??????????
    
    Tell here or via EMail pls... I gots to leave soonish...???
    
    |-{:-)
    

    Errr..... Small question.
    
    This Marlboro where you folks are having/had your latest bash, is
    that the same Malboro between Keene and Peterborough (sp?) ????

    Nope, Talk Hard, the local "Marlboro" is kinda west-ish of Boston,
    right on Route 495 -- the latest demarcating hiway between the Hub of
    the Universe and THEM.  Funny, when I wuz a kid, it was Route 128...
    

    Gotcha - Ta

    
    Boxboro(ugh), Boxboro(ugh), not Marlboro(ugh).
    

    Is somebody punching you in the stomach?!?

    
    No, er, that is, no(ugh). 
                     

    Oh(ugh)

    
    No(ugh), no(ugh), no(ugh).  It just doesn't work that way.

    So(ugh) how(ugh) do(ugh) you(ugh) know(ugh)?

Speaking of (ugh)...

For what it's worth, all of the "-boro(ugh)" towns in Massachusetts, with
the sole exception of Attleboro, are _officially_ spelled "-borough".

Even North Attleborough, a separate town from Attleboro, uses the "-ugh".

/john

    I was not aware of that, does this guy know how to party or what
    huh huh......oookkkk.

    By the way hon I noticed that it was Boxboro only minutes after I 
    had written the note. However, minutes before I wrote the note I
    had seen something for a bash in Marlboro, and I didn't even have
    a drink at lunchtime either :^)
    
    wrote the note... Hey that ryhmes (sp?) la da daaa wrote the note,
    wrote the note..... sad arnt I !!

    Boxsnarf

    So, er, did you guy's have fun at your little bashette ??? I do
    hope to see you with clear heads tomorrow for work :^). I 
    personally would have got completely ****faced and forgotten
    how to walk and talk.

    Have you considered the fact that there might be more of you?
    
    Glenn/Deirdre/Pamela/Franny/Ned/Dierdre/Anton/Sean/Alice/Jimi/Pauline/Rex/
    Nathan/Melanie/Ursula/Hildegard/Nigel/Boutros Boutros
    
    

    scuzme !?! If ye be bantering with I, I tell ye that there only 
    be one of me and a cheer is heard.

re Boutros Boutros

Golly, that's a weird name.

    It was a personality so nice, I named him twice.

    
    pay attention martin...the 'bash' last nite was cancelled...
    
    

I thought it was "Boutros Boutros" because his mother always
had to call twice to get his attention.

    Yeah butt.. I thought some of you folks went somewhere else .....??

    
    well, don't think...and no one will get hurt...
    
    

    
    WHEN:	Friday, February 10, 1995 after work
    
    WHAT:	BoxBash for the visiting Glenn Richardsons
    
    WHO:	You
    
    WHERE:	TBD
    
    WHY:	To see how many personalities can fit in one chair
    
    
    Suggestions as to venue are being entertained.  Send same via mail. 
    Social Director will make the final decision and post post-haste.
                                                        

	Assuming BoxBach is in my area:  make sure the place is handicapped 
accessible for wheelchairs.

ME

    
    Er, would that be JS Bach?  CPE Bach?  PDQ Bach?  8^) 8^) 8^)
    
    Oh yeah, Chip Bach?

    It's convenient, it's all on the ground floor...  Good tex-mex too...?
    

     It's nice to see you're willing to really put yourself out to get
    there, Dan. :-)

    
    
    there's amory's...well, mayb not....don't think there is a ramp
    there...but then again, i thought restaurants had to have hp
    accessibility???  anyway...what about the bar that is in the hotel that
    whatstheirnames is staying at????
    
    

    RE: restaurants having to have hp accessibility
    
    	This is generally true.  However, if it can be claimed that making
    the restaurant accessible causes "undue hardship", then they don't have
    to do so.
    
    ME

    
    i thought they had to accommodate...but i guess there's a loophole for
    everything.  i still remember the time my father argued with a manager
    of some restaurant because, even tho there was a ramp for the hp, the
    table were so close together that wherever his g-friend went, she was
    ramming into things (and it wasn't because she didn't know what she
    was doing, either...)...
    
    bummer...i think amory's is a pretty decent place.
    
    
    but i hear that place at glenn's hotel is looking pretty good....
    
    

    
    TexMex - hmmm.  A pitcher of margees, the odd jalapeno.  Whenzis ?
    
      bb

    
    
    and sierra's does make a pretty good margarita (so i am told)...and
    their chimichangas are pretty good, too...
    
    

    and it's just around the corner from PKO too..... Hmmmmm.  Their crab
    cakes are wonderful and their Hot whatever is truly HOT!
    
    Brina

Make sure Glenn doesn't do whirly twirlies. He has a habit of losing his
pants.

	In the states it is recommended that one keeps their pants up. It
doesn't matter which personality is doing the dropping, as if they are dropped,
you'll be carted off to a nice little room with bars. 


Glen

    
    WHEN:	Friday, February 10, 1995 after work
    
    WHAT:	BoxBash for the visiting Glenn Richardsons
    
    WHO:	You
    
    WHERE:	Jerry's Bar & Grill in the Boxboro Host Hotel
    
    WHY:	I don't know about you, but I don't need an excuse
    
                                                   
    The Boxboro Host Hotel is off of 495 at the exit for Rt.111.  The hotel 
    itself is quite a bit off the road, but the green sign for the drive is 
    right on 111 and there's a red neon sign visible from 495.  Send mail if 
    you need better directions.
    
    If you go into the hotel itself (electric doors), the entrance for Jerry's 
    is to the left (wide opening).  Right inside the door there's a raised
    platform with a ramp leading up to a seating area with huge couches and
    a fireplace.  (It looks really comfortable 8^).)  I would presume that
    the earlier anyone gets there the more likely we are to have that area
    to ourselves 8^), hint hint.
    
    There are other places to sit, but I liked the way that looked.

Sounds mahvelous...  count me in.  Will we have the
opportunity to swan dive into the indoor pool from
the balcony of the Glenns' room?

ALSO don't forget Feb 16th at Amory's to meet Bob Ainsley
drinks and dinner around 6 ish

    
    
    bummer...bob...thursday is my school nite...not to mention that the
    16th is the nite of my first test...
    
    guess that just means you'll have to come to mso for lunch...

Bob

    Watch for the bewildered geezer with the prop-beanie & the glow coming
    from his pantz -- no that's my laser pointer, I'm not THAT glad to seeya.
    
    And as fer YOU, you faux Ducteuh, I'll have you know that Sierra's
    AIN't on my way home anymore, ever since they banished me to the wilds
    of LJO2.  And yet, for the signal honor of phrenologically correlating
    the Richardson's skullular prominences wiv the Richardsons' multiple
    personality manifestations, I will go many MANY miles outten my way. 
    So Fie on ya.

	If I show up at this bash, do I introduce myself to ::richarson(s)
	18 or 19 times?

	I will be there! Gotta meet the Richardson's, gotta meat Judge Komar,
gotta see the _Babes again, gotta see wirly mon, and I gotta do my laundry. :-)

 I'd like to go, but alas, cannot as I have my kids this weekend..however,
 I may attend the Ainsely bash





Jim

Your Honor Komar:  if you'd wear a black robe, and maybe an
"I (heart) Ito" pin, you'd be mighty easy to spot!	;^)

I don't know who this 'Ainsely' guy is, but I hope you make it to mine...
I want to meet the muppets:-)

Bob

 Well, I was close ;-)



 

    
    
    speaking of muppets, last nite dick clark had yet another blooper
    show...and this time, they showed some bloopers from the muppets (the
    movie 'a christmas carol', i believe..)...man those were funny.  in
    fact, last nite, i actually found myself (not that i was lost or
    anything) really laughing at some of these bloopers...expecially the
    news station ones and the one from bill cosby...

>Bob

Longest but most straightforward.
Take RT85 from HLO to RT117 in Bolton, turn right on RT117(it is a "T" 
intersection) follow 117 into Maynard, at the big fork in the road with a 
Mobil station in the middle of the fork, take the left fork, you will go into 
beautiful downtown-Maynard. Amory's will be on the left in the second(third)
block of businesses. Parking is reasonably available on the street or
across in the DEC lot(We're all employees so how can they object? :-}).

Amos

Thanks, Hudson, Ma.

Bob

towards Maynard, and across the street from the Mill is Amory's.

I'm dying to learn - what color was Boutros Boutros' hair this
evening?

    A pleasing shade of brown...
    
    Whoops, I meant brown brown.
    

    For anyone who may be curious, Glenn "Slashes" Richardson bears
    an uncanny resemblance to one Chris Elliott (of "Late Night with
    David Letterman" and "Saturday Night Live" fame).
    
    Hildegard looks like an East German swimmer.  A powerful gal.
    

    oh no!  i missed the magical fruit!  harumph.  i'm truly sorry to
    have missed this august gathering, but i got stuck at dec till
    22:30, which made me 30 minutes late for my other job :-(  i will
    however make an appearance on the 16th.  i know you are all glad
    that i've shared this with you.

    So wot's happenin on the 16th?  I'm spozedta be in Cambridge all that
    day & have a mondo presentation to do on Fri., so my chances seem slim
    to nil of pressin the flesh or enchanting any fruit that evening.

    oh, dear, big bob from texas will be making a rear (heh,heh) apperance.
    are you sure we cannot entice you into enchanting any more fruit?  i
    miss your pointer, btw :-)

    
    The laserpointer was in attendance, and used early and often,
    especially to catch the attention of the waitress 8^).

    
    Oh, and we met Lesley/Leslie!
    
    The stress of the bash caused more mitosis 8^).

    mitosis...  I thought that's what you get when you pull too many
                allnighters in Cambridge MA 02139...?

	'Twas great to finally meet (or in Silva's case "meat" :-) ) 
some of the other 'boxers.  I look forward to the next time I can go.

ME

    The box bash was marred by the skilful way in which the waitron ignored
    our table, messed up the order(s) and was basically an unpleasant
    individual.  IMO of course.  Other than that, Gle(nx2) seemed rather
    complete for such a multi-faceted individual even if he does have a
    problem telling the correct time.  
    
    Brian 

	Deb, I think the name is spelt like it's pronounced....






		Lesssssssssslie

    We all had a wonderful time. It was great to meat Glen, the Judge, the
    fishing window, Terrie and her cat nipples, Dan and his beanie/laser/banana
    show, Brian and Lady Di all for the first time. 3 outa 4 MSO babes
    ain't bad, missed you Christine.

    I showed Debra how to properly consume a boilermaker. 8^)

    Raq became proficient at Gilliganisms. Not only that she was getting
    good at them too!

    I also enjoyed meating my new personality.

    Glenn/Deirdre/Pamela/Franny/Ned/Dierdre/Anton/Sean/Alice/Jimi/Pauline/Rex/
    Nathan/Melanie/Ursula/Hildegard/Nigel/Boutros Boutros/Leslie

   I thought there were only 3 MSO babes.  Is Terrie an MSO babe?
   

   confused as usual,
   Di

    Does Raq now do a great impression of Ginger?

	Ahhhh..... the Lady Di..... yes, she is a _Babe. Maybe you weren't
around for the vote we had for her in the box? You were probably at home
figuring out how you can hoard all of that squash... heh heh......

	Sorry - I must have missed it.  Thanks.

    I wonder why it was okay to serve Glenn and Mz Deb a shot and a beer at
    the same time but I could not get two beers as a preemptive measure.

re:  the fishing window

raq's eyes keep making her see an "n" in my p_name
where there isn't one.

    
    I was wondering when you'd ask that 8^).
    
    We were having boilermakers.  That's one drink, even though it comes in
    two glasses 8^).

    
    re: .279
    
    next time just bring your own 1 litre stein...

Next time, I'd advise that each person bring
his/her own drinks, snacks, and whatever other
necessities may be required.  Toni had not
gotten to full comprehension of the term "to wait
on."

'Course it didn't help that Dr.Dan was performing
unlicensed eye and/or brain surgery on her.	;^)

    The poor woman was having a bad day. I for one felt good that we
    cheered her up at the end. It was a random act of kindness.
    
    I still had a great time! And, I can so tell the time. A quarter of
    four is one.
    
    Glenn

Did you have to leave your overheads with the officials when you returned?

	'boxers are notoriously critical of waitresses.  I thought
	she was pretty tolerant of us, actually.

	Deb, Joanne had two drinks in front of her!!!!!  Two cokes!  How come
she could do it but Brian couldn't!!??

	Di, she was very tolerant of us, but then again, with Leslie and you 
_Babes present, how couldn't she be??? :-)

    Somebody tell me that I'm better looking than Chris Elliot. My ego
    feels like a raisin.

    I'm sure Dierdre is gorgeous!

    OK, OK, you're better looking than Chris Elliot.
    
    
    
    (You may send payment to mso2-3/C3.)

	Glenn, while you may look similar, you don't have those big goofball
eyes that Chris Elliot has, and you would never appear in a movie called,
"Cabin Boy". Maybe Leslie would, but you wouldn't! 


Glen

Who's Chris Elliot?

    
    Someone who's not as good looking as Glenn, evidently 8^).
    

    
    Chris Elliot was `The Panicky Guy' from Letterman.
    

	He used to be on David Letterman as the guy under the stairs, the
fugitive guy. He went on to do a stupid show on FOX, who's name escapes me now.
He does the Dorito's commercial where he is in the tax office, and now does
Saturday Night live. 

All right, all right.  You're what Chris Elliott would
like if he were more attractive.  Blimey!

Joanne "Two Cokes" Jensen

    By the way, thanks girls and er, um, you too Glen... I suppose, uh, I
    uh, I guess.....

    This troubles me.

This bubbles pee.

    This cuddles knee.

    The batch-extracting & late-nite-reading of SOAPBOX (that I've recently
    been forced into) doesn't permit much participation in the real-time
    hurlyburly, & also doesn't afford Yours Truly the knowledge, which I
    hope that you mindless twerps will supply me, of who started this
    rhyming-comeback clang-association spacewasting braindead GARBAGE so I
    can have them LOBOTOMIZED.
    
    Would someone kindly oblige me with this information so that SOAPBOX
    can return to its wonted level of wit, i.e., one neuron above its
    currently lamentable state?
    
    I should be in your debt eternally.  TYVM.
    

    
    even tho i am late on this (not only that, i am not on time), glenn etc
    has a slight resemblance to the moron known as chris elliot. 
    thankfully, he is missing the bulging eyes that glen mentioned.  he
    (elliot) was in that ridiculous FOX show "get a life", where he played
    a 30-something paper boy still living at home with his parents.
    
    and for the record...there are only 3 mso babes...however, there ARE
    branch members, which include BOTH terrie and lady di...

    I find this interesting.  Someone says that Glenn looks like Chris
    Elliott.  Chris......er, I mean Glenn says please don't tell me that
    and then people tell him either "OK, no he doesn't" or "yeah he does,
     but it's different".
    
    
    Me thinks Glenn needs to accept the fact and deal with his burden......
    
    
    
    Mike

    If indeed he (Glen) does look like Chris Elliot then I think a little
    more sympathy would be required.
     

	After meAting our own judge Komar, I have come to a conclusion. He
would have made a MUCH better judge than Ito. (although Ito does have that cute
beard) Komar would have brought sooooo much more FUN to this trial. I can
picture it now....


Komar:	The defendant is being represented by....

Shapiro: Mr. Simpson is being represented by myself, Jonnie Cochrane, and....

Komar:	He said <insert word which could be deleted>! heh heh... heh heh.....

Shapiro: Your honor, you've just violated penil code...

Komar:	He said penil.... heh heh.... heh heh......

Shapiro: YOUR HONOR!!! I'M BEGINNING TO GET TESTY!!!!

Komar:	He said Testies... heh heh.... heh heh......heh heh.... heh heh......
	heh heh.... heh heh......heh heh.... heh heh......heh heh.... heh heh
	heh heh.... heh heh......heh heh.... heh heh......heh heh.... heh heh...

problems. :-)

    What of it, Jack?  Are the rumors true and what time should I be
    there??????

    Well, as long as you don't expect her to pay you with good beer.

    
    I'd have to go to Canada to get a case of good beer.

    
    Doritos is fine.... as long as I'm ready for them! :)

    WHEN:	Thursday, February 16, 1995 after work
    
    WHAT:	BoxBash for the visiting Bob Ainsley
    
    WHO:	You, and the ::FIREARMS noters
    
    WHERE:	Amory's in Maynard
    
    WHY:	To get a good peek at some gunnuts 8^)
    
                                              
    I am such a dork, this is TOMORROW.  Evidently the gunnuts will be
    there sixish.  I don't know what one looks like, in general, but I will
    be there shortly after 5 if youall know what I look like 8^).

    >Not enough room....
    
     I couldn't agree more. 

    RE: .357
    
    >I don't know what one looks like, in general,

	Deb, I should be there right around 5:00. Andy, I hope you left your
gun at home. :-)

    
    .359
    
    Oh, oh, I see.  In other words, gunnuts are handsome, charming and witty
    men...who have almost all of their original teeth 8^).

    	I thought this was a good time to start.  =)
    

What trouble? Maybe I'll get lucky and they'll start carding me.

 Not sure if I'll make it...Tummy still not feeling all that great.





Jim

	I hope ya make it Jim.... I was looking forward to meEting you. :-)

 I doubt I'll make it.  I'll be stuck here at work til at least 6 or so, then
 home to crash on the couch.




 Jim

	bummer....

 Sorry to disappoint.  Hopefully, I'll manage to save a customer however.

    i, too, will be unable to attend...1st test in macroeconomics tonite...
    
    
    (let's my p_n holds off til afterwards...)
    
    

    I will be there tonight. Sorry about missing last week's bash (in honor
    of the Richardson family), I was in Kaliph...

    The way I am with numbers I`d take a -C and be drunk for a week. I have
    this phobia and it has to do with the fear of numbers. Every time I
    took a math course (right through my MBA) I had to get hypnotized
    before each class. It was successfull but I still don`t like math.

    
    
    well, hope all was well last nite...
    
    

    
    We had a lovely small gathering; I was concerned over the dearth of
    gunnuts 8^).
    
    In attendence were:
    
    Bob Ainsley
    Marina (I'm sorry, I know not her last name)
    Amos Hamburger
    Glen Silva
    Brian Markey
    Mike "Madman" Moroney
    et moi.

    
    
    	Sorry I missed the bash! :*( Sounds like fun and I would've added
    one more gunnut to the scene....;*)
    
    

	Why is it the one who said they would be there FIRST, was there LAST?
Does anyone know who I am talking about??? :-)

    
    Look, I was born three weeks late, and I haven't managed to catch up
    yet 8^).

	I did have a good time though. Got there around 5:15, which no one was
there yet, and waited until about 6:00, when Amos introduced himself. Guess he
had been there before me! Brian showed up right when Amos was doing intro's,
and as we sat down for a few minutes, Bob & his girlfriend showed up. Talk
about 2 little lovebirds.... :-)  

	I think I know why Deb shows up late. It has nothing to do with being
born 3 months late. It has to do with wanting to make a GRAND entrance! Don't
you know Deb you light up any room??? (and that room needed lighting)



Glen

    
    she was 3 WEEKS late...not months...
    
    (as was i...)
    
    

	If you add up all the times she has been late, it's gotta be months....
if not YEARS!

    
    Hey!
    
    I was on time last Friday, wasn't I?  Don't I get points for that?
    
    OK, I wasn't exactly ON TIME, but I was an earlier late than my usual
    late.
    
    
    Anyway, I was on a very important phone call last night.  I'll try to
    do better next time 8^).
                            

    We had a lovely little time talking about the letter F, large
    organs, very smart cats, sheep (lambs) in the town of Sterling,
    and the correlation between hand size and certain skills. :-)

    Well, I'm finally starting to get caught up in here...
    
    Yes, it was a small crowd, but as often is the case, the quality was
    inversely proportional to the quantity.  I REALLY enjoyed meeting
    everyone.
    
    Amos, I appreciated your comment concerning a certain person in Nude
    Hampster.
    
    Glen, for some reason, I was expecting someone older looking.  Hope
    your food didn't spoil:-)
    
    Brian, what can I say, you are truly a many-talented man.  Now, we
    just need to get you to eat more than once a day.  I wonder if your
    body is getting revenge, by making you wear tunafish sandwiches on your
    back, and painting certain parts of your anatomy orange?
    
    Mike, I think your pen is running out of ink:-)  I'm glad you were able
    to join us.
    
    Mz. Debra, thank you very much for arranging this event.  And
    boilermakers?  Wow!  Even Marina was impressed.  BTW, on the way home,
    Marina said to me, "I made a new friend tonight!"  She thinks you are
    wonderful.
    
    Now, before the next bash, someone needs to do some research and answer
    the following question:
    
    What do graphite and Monostat-7 have in common?
    
    Thanks again, everyone.

off by a decade.

cream company, hated Bob, and maybe even break a nail...... :-)

Glen

    This troubles me!

    we have some notable departures to commemorate...

	Who? 

    
    Well, it's kind of up to Joanne...I could really only do Thursday the 9th 
    or Thursday the 16th because of rehearsal.  Unless people wanted to do
    a Saturday night.
    
    I'm always up for a party, yaknow 8^).

	Yeah, right Deb. Like you enjoy parties. Uh huh.... we all know you
hate them.....:-)

    
    Oh, and if we do have a pahty, please not Wednesday or Thursday
    night. Wednesday, I have a band rehearsal and Thursday is my
    father's birthday... 'course, this may be incentive to have
    it on Wed or Thu as far as some folks are concerned... :-)
    
    -b

    
    Joanne's not leaving til the, er, the 17th, so we could have it
    Thursday the 16th, that is if Brian means his dad's birthday is
    Thursday the 9th.

    Um yeah, Mz. Deb, my Dad's birthday is the 9th. But aren't
    you among those who we're honoring, or will you be around
    after the 10th? Did I miss something?
    
    -b

    
    
    I usually have school on thursday nights, but it just so happens
    that the week of March 16th is spring break week!  Maybe I'll bring
    my glamour shots and floor everyone with what I 'don't look like'. :*)
    
    
    PARTY!!!! :*)
    
    Terrie
    

    
    Oh, I don't want to be honoured.  I plan on coming back 8^)!!  
    
    Just because the 10th is my last day doesn't mean I won't be available 
    for party purposes 8^).  In fact, it's possible that if I'm not working
    I might be on time for once 8^o.

    
    
    Deb?!?!?!?!  Are you leaving???????????

	Your leaving, or your showing up on time???

    
    I'd have to be separated from my brain to show up on time 8^).
    
    Face it, I was born three weeks late and I haven't managed to catch up
    yet.

	Funny how you're ALWAYS caught up with notes though.... :-)

	Gosh, you go away for a few minutes, and people start planning
	parties.

	From what I've read, it sounds like Thursday the 16th is an
	agreeable evening for folks.  I'm free (or is that "reasonable")
	as well.

	So pick a location, guys, and I'll be there.  I commute 495 from
	Hudson to Chelmsford and live only 5 minutes from Nashua, so anyplace
	along that generate route is aces for me.

	If Markey is going, I'll be dressed as J.S. Bach.

    Oh, all right.

	ALLLLLLRIGHT! But Hildy has to realize, no rassling...

    I love it.

Well, as long as you don't start skinnin' seals and making
sleds outta their body parts, I'll go.  I promise to leave
my presentation materials south of the border.

How far north of the Arctic Circle do you live, anyway, Glenn?
Is Santa your neighbor?    ;^)  ;^)   ;^)

        Since the pahty is for Jensen, how about Cooper's in Nashua?
        
        &y
        

    I'll be there dressed as a jolly good pedarast.

    Nashua???  too goldang far.  imho uffcawss...
    

Nonsense. It's right down the road. Some of us even work there.

    Yabbut, methinks the centroid is somewheres in the Littleton area,
    p'raps towards Andover-ish...?  And anyhoo, if you call THAT working,
    hah. :-)
    

Well, when I used to live in Epping, we had bumper stickers which read
	"Epping is the Center of the Universe"

    More like the fundament.
    
    Butt, whadda I know?
    

 Hey, if its Thursday night, and in Nashua, I might be able to make it!



 Jim

    Dr. Dan, drive to Nashua.  Think how much rubber you can burn
    with that new hotrod yer sportin' around in.
    

(Hmmm. sounds like D.B. Coopers after all.)

    I wuz HOPING no one would get me on that... :) But howsomever, this
    Thoisday is outsville pour moi, on accountov it being my wife's
    birthday, and NEXT Thoisday is out also, it being my annual nite for
    consorting with superannuated bankers, flower-children-turned-
    metaphysicians-turned-basketweavers, failed liberal & conservative
    politicos, and Massachusetts-Governor-wannabees.  I.e., class reunion.  
    
    So you'll have to prepare the Majick Banana without me, I fear...
    
    Besides which, there's no point in my coming to a 'BoxBash unless the
    Doctah is there to instruct me on the fine points of doubleclutching.
    
    

JoJo says Thursday, 3/16 is good, as is Nausea NH. Shall I declare
that it will happen at D.B. Coopers that evening at 5-ish, or what?

I mean, nobody else is calling any shots here . . . .

    I know Mz Debra will have a shot though. A boilermaker to be precise,
    although she doesn't drink them right. ;-)

    
    Step outside and say that, mister 8^).
    
    OK, Thursday 3/16 after 5.  I'll be the one with the crazed expression
    and a little row of boilermakers.

    Well, I went out and said it. Now what happens?

It all depends.

Do you feel better? Does Frannie?

    I feel kinda weird.

No, no. I mean how do you feel _differently_ than before?

    Well, my feet are wet, but they've been wet before, so, what does that
    mean? 

    It means you leaked from your boxer shorts........

    But it was wet outside, how can I be certain?

    And, I'm wearing briefs.

It means there's either snow on the ground, you stepped in a puddle
or you've messed yourself, I guess.

    I kinda feel weird.

    You been on the booze again ?????:^)

    Does that make your feet wet?

    Well I had a few last night and when I got home my feet were wet!

    So, in a nutshell, I kinda feel weird.

    define...... weird

    I think you think of too many parties. :')

	Glenn, how many times do people have to tell you that you have to aim

    if it is nashua, i kin make it.

    
    
    So, what's D.B. Coopers?
    Where's D.B. Coopers?
    Can I get there frome here?
    How long will it take me to get there from here?
    How far from Rt. 128 is it for me to get home?

     If it's in Bonita Springs or Ft Myers (or Sanibel) I can make it. ;-)

    Even I know D. B. Coopers (unless they moved it from Spitbrook Rd). I
    wasn`t sure it was still around.

Sigh. We should have a "Directions to favorite dives" topic that get's
propogated from 'box to 'box.

From MA, take 3 north into NH. Take either the Middlesex Road exit
or Spitbrook Road Exit (Exit 1).

From Middlesex Road, turn left onto DW Highway and left again several lights
up at SpitBrook Road (just past Computer City on right, before the Turkey
Farm.) Coopers is on the left past the furniture store at the corner.

From Exit 1, turn right onto Spitbrook Road. Coopers is on the right
past the 7-11.

    
    
    How do I get to Rt. 3?
    
    
    
    Thanks,
    
    Terrie
    

From either 495 or 128 is probably the most direct means.

	Terrie, for you it would be easier to go 495 north. About 5 or so miles
up will be the Rt. 3 exit (at the Lowell Connector). 

    .491
    I`m rolling...that was great. I wish I could fit that on my license

    schtoopid sitting at a large table all alone with a crazed expression
    and a little row of boilermakers 8^). 

    I'll be there, Mz. Deb, don't you worry.  We can be two unemployed
    gals a-sittin' and a-drinkin'.  If no one else shows, the hell with it...
    we'll road-trip to Glenn's igloo.  Bring your passport or something.
     

    Well I'm not going if we havta go to Glenn's igloo

I don't intend to forget, but if it appears that I'm a no-show,
just mosey on down to ZKO and toss pebbles at my window.

    
    
    I'll be there. (How long will it take me to get there from LKG??)

So, if I get there first, I'll stake out some territory.

Well, I'll be there around about 5:30ish.  (I'll look
for the man with one good tooth, Jack.   ;^)   )

Have I mentioned that, where I come from, packets of
U.S.-style folding money are considered a most proper
gift to the one going away?

 I hope to be there, about 5:30 or so





Jim

I can see it now - I get there early to stake out the territory, everyone
else arrives apres 1730 and finds me blotto from over indulging in cocacola.

A Coca-Cola man, that's what I like to see.
Stick with me, Jack.  I can get them *two* at
a time (at least in Boxboro).

	Only Brian M couldn't get 2 drinks when asked.... :-)

 Well, I'll be there (sans muppets) drinking diet coke




Jim

    
    
    bummer....i can't make it...didn't know about it til today and i have
    plans that day...
    
    jojo...have an iced tea for me and know i am gonna miss ya!!!!
    
    

    
    I'm still planning on being the one with the crazed expression and the
    little row of boilermakers, but I'm afraid that for once I might not be
    on time.

    No can do.  Got plans.
    
    ME

    good thing i decided to check in, i was all ready to head to amory's
    tomorrow!
    
    i'll be there between 4-4:30, i'll help you with the stake-out jack!

    
    
    I'll be the one with the big red nose and the nasally voice.
    But, other than that, I'll be presentable.  Maybe I'll even 
    wear a skirt...no more sweat suits to box bashes. :*)

	Deb, what's this, "for once I may not be on time" stuff????? 

    
    I've heard that if you say something about yourself enough times it 
    begins to come true.  Ergo, I'm starting to present myself as
    someone who's always on time.
    
    Think it'll work 8^)?

    We shall be there, in spirit.

    Nathan/Melanie/Ursula/Hildegard/Nigel/Boutros Boutros/Leslie/Shareena
    

	Deb, there is only one flaw in that plan. If you were on time, you
could never make an entrance. We can't have you ruining things for us at the
bashes because you want to be on time for some reason..... :-)

    
    >I'll be the one with the big red nose and the nasally voice.

	By the way, I'll be wearing a Panama Jack straw hat.
	It caught my attention in ye olde closet this morning,
	and it's quite festive looking.

    As I've said, I cain't make it neither.  Howsomever, I'll be there in
    sparerib, and I yam happy that I conveyed my greetings to some of
    General Beuregard J. "Bubba" Beeler's finest Magnolias in person this
    AyEm.  Not all, mindjoo, and those Ladies know who They are.
    
    I did, incidentally, promise another apparition of the Majick Froot to
    'Tine, who missed the last 'BoxBash.  Fortunately, she too will be
    amongst the missing tomorrow.  Good thing too, because the apparent
    resolve of the other MSO_Babes and assorted 'BoxBabes to NOT tell her
    the Secret of the Majick Froot might waver after too many boilermakers.  
    
    I am trusting you ALL to attempt, as far as is possible, to maintain
    'Tine's FrootVirtue until the Proper Time.  To do less would be to
    Cheapen it.  Which would Not Do.
    
    Enjoy,
    
    |-{:-)
    

    bbbbbbuuuuuttttt, Dr. Dan, I will be there this evening, now that I
    know the proper place to go!  It is Raq who cannot make it and I will
    pour boilermakers down Mz Debra's throught until she has burst my
    froovirtue :-)))))  I'm quite tittilated right now, yes, I am :-)))))))

    'tine, darling, i could prolly help you work on your froovirtue.  any
    time after 4 or so, is it then?

If Binder will be there, I'll have to prepare a list
of all my questions about the universe.  I have a
hunch he's got most of the answers.

 OK..how am I going to know where y'all are when I get to DBs..will youse
 be in the bar area?

As you enter the place, the bar is ahead and to the right. Ahead and just

expect.

    I started to feel sick again a little while ago, and it's getting

No doubt, Joanne. I'll stick to those LCD thermometers that you hold on
the forehead.

    How do you take the temperature of your staff? Can it get hotter than
    other parts of the body?

    ?

It's people like you wot cause unrest.

    Well, I'm not driving the staff detector van.

 I won't be there tonight afterall..following Joanne's advice, I offered
 to take the temps of my people.  My court appearance is at 4:30.

Very nice bash.

Great to see Messrs. Binder and Markey as always. Mr. Covert stopped in for
a short time complete with mini-sandwich board (or was that a canape, /john?)

A pleasure as always seeing the guests of honor, Mz. Deb, Pat B. and Joanne
of the life of leisure.

Also wonderful to see 'Tine again. (We should do this more often.)

And most especially nice to meet Mrs. Hendersen's son and fellow Upstate
New York native, MadMan Moroney, after all these years. Both gentlemen are
as nice in person as they are in NOTES.

Best of luck to the departing ladies of the 'Box!

Sorry to have missed anyone who showed up after I had to leave.

The biggest problem was restraining myself from oversalivating
at the sight of the olives in Binder's martinis . . . 

    
    There was a special guest of honour that showed up unexpectedly.
