Yearrrrr and an Invitation

[mamagotcha]

I don't think I ever posted this to my own journal, despite various crosspostings. Arrr! I'm an idjit!

Announcing the Third Semiannual Heartland Equinox Party!

Are you the family Scrabble champ? Do you do the NYT crossword in pen (or wish you could)? Are you an aficionado of anagrams? Come join your fellow wordplay fans for an evening of games and puzzles.

5-11 p.m., Saturday, September 20, 2008
9031 Booth Ave., KC MO 64138

More info and RSVP: mamagotcha@gmail.com, or (816) 456-9014

Tentative schedule of events:
5-7 p.m. Socializing, wall puzzles, informal board/card games and potluck dinner
7 p.m. Evening program
Mixer game (TBA)
Pencil & paper games (TBA)
Megagame: The Ice Cream Man Cometh, by Joshua Kosman
If time permits, we’ll finish up with a few performance games

Please bring a potluck dish to share. Plates, utensils, cups & drinks will be provided. The puzzles and games are probably not suitable for pre-teen children unless they really love wordplay (but we’ll have some Pixar movies playing if you can’t get a sitter).

Please RSVP so that we have enough chairs, copies, and materials for everyone. Feel free to forward this announcement.

Dang it! You pick the one day I already have a social engagement!

Well, crap! And what's up with the steampunk goatse?

[feckalyn.livejournal.com]

I find the goatse entertaining and saw someone using that icon and asked if I could also use it. Have you seen the website with all the 'accidental' goatse? In advertising and such. (I'd look for the site but I just don't feel like it.) It's highly hilarious!
What makes this one steampunk though?

[mamagotcha.livejournal.com]

I misread the inner cercle as some sort of gear, and the coloring is kinda washed out (like sepia steampunk stuff)... i dunno, just kinda looked like that to me.

Teh goatse will nevar fade away. All your butts are belong to us!

Booo! You live too far away and that sucks. I wanna play!

Waaah! We'll do something when I'm in CA next... not sure when that will be, but before the end of the year.

That's the one (tonight!!!) in the SF Bay Area... not doing anything tomorrow? Sign up for the mailing list... if they don't send info on tomorrow's party, call me (816-456-9014) and I'll get you hooked up.

xoxo!

That sounds great fun but I don't think we can make it that far by yesterday!

I had a wonderful time. It was very satisfying to finally get to the solution of 'the big one'! Thank you for hostessing such a great evening.
