The HI Catoosa Convention. Time to get serious and sign up.

Sounds fun guys. I won't be able to make it (again) as I'll be studying for my LSAT during that time. I'll be with you in spirit though, and patiently waiting, crossing my fingers for the next HI convention in Reno.
 
Stuck in the hospital with a broken leg they wouldn't let my surgeon fix. The fourth try they finally let the guy have an operating room. Fed surgeon garbage about me needing cardiac care which culminated in a cardiac catheterization against my will.

And then Percoset every 4-6 hours for another couple weeks after I got out. Addictive? Hell no.

Daydreaming of implementing the hospital staff's excrutiatingly slow and painful deaths, now THAT IS VERY addictive.
 
I will see what can be done. I want to go. Yvsa, when are you going to be in PA? I might be able to meet up with you even though it would be a bit of a ride. It depends on a couple of other things to. Email me if you prefer.
 
Have Blues explain, if you don't get it right off, that is.

"La dah dah dah de dah dah dah de dah, like an Alley Cat.

"La dah dah dah de dah dah dah de dah, Bauchop Alley Cat."

Picking that up's the first thing on the agenda when I get to Reno this week, then the Cantina, and then go see the lawyer. If he can't get me satisfaction, then I start singing Bing Crosby tunes.

Besides I can't hobble fast enough - yet!
 
People, people--there will surely be other Konventions some day, but this is likely to be the only one EVER to be held in Yvsa's back yard. Literally. He'll have his tools right at hand,his vast collection of blades, and he's going to be in a position to show us tricks that amateurs like me just can't quite get the hang of from written descriptions.

And having once spent an afternoon with Bill at his old cantina, I can tell you that while a picture may be worth a thousand words, hanging out with Uncle Bill is better than a thousand pictures. So come on.

Big Bob--Oklahoma's the midwest. Come see for yourself. But don't hitchhike to get there. Years ago I recall driving thru there and seeing highway signs that said, "Warning: Hitchikers May Be Convicts." Must've been near a prison.
 
If this is the Catoosa that Mapquest found in OK, as opposed to Catoosa county in Alabama (?), we'll be there. No tent needed but we'll be all over the other festivities. If I hadn't asked the spousal unit about the trip I would've never known she's been wanting to meet the designer of the "bent knife with the Yin-Yang inlay".

Having seen Uncle's birthday announcement, my worries about being the oldest one at a forum get-together are now groundless - although it's a close call.

Oh, and by the way, Uncle - if you bemoan the passing of American muscle, I'll bring something that, although kinda late model, will take a full 30 years off you for a few brief shining moments (works for me, anyway). I assume you can still handle a Borg-Warner T-56 tranny with Hurst linkage?

Regards
Hawk
 
I'm going to try to scrape together the airfare to come. Like others I'll have no money for Khuks once I pay for the trip:( But it should be well worth the effort and expense to meet the characters on this forum:D


Patrick
 
I suppose that's true jim- you seem like less of a 'character' and more of a folkloric creature, like the Yeti only from Florida. Hmmmm, what's Florida's version of Bigfoot called? The Skunk Ape?

But wait'll they get a load of me:D

Patrick
 
Pat,
Fl. version of Bigfoot, would have to be Blues! He fits all the criteria & he(Blues, not Bigfoot)is a YERY strange WACKO!He is def. NOT human(to read this you might think we do not like each other,but nothing could bre further from the truth) I just want to see him put away in a nice, quiet,home for the SICK(YOU MAY SUPPLY WHATEVER DEF. YOU WANT FOR THE TERM sick)!HUGE GRIN!!jUST READ HIS PAST POSTS! aRE THESE THE POSTS OF A SANE MAN??
jim :D
 
I really want to go but i have to see how pissed a few people would be if i ran away with rob for a weekend to hang out with sweaty old men in tents in some guys backyard in OK......I think i need to find a better way to phrase this before I ask how much damage control are they going to make me suffer through.......So any Ideas on how to say this in a way that doesn't make my mom, fiance....etc. want to kill me or bob or all of you

Jim,

I'm shocked, dismayed and somewhat taken aback that you would speak of me in such a manner! ;)


Blues

ps: Rusty, could you hum a few more bars? :D
 
Belle,
No big prob. Guys don't expect sweethearts to really rough it!hee! Barb will be there to make sure the "animals" stay at bay!Bet she has a safe haven for you & the other Ladies!
jim ;)
 
I glad Barbs coming that might make damage control a little easier especially since the first thing my fiance said was "You want to go camp out in someones back yard with a bunch of men who are stronger than you and are playing with big sharp knives in another part of the country so you cant run home or call me for help?"

I never know wether to be happy he he loves me enough to give enough of a s*** to not let my history repeat itself or pissed because he always wants to protect me

sorry to rant
bella
 
To class me in the same league with Blues, Koz (Apothecary), Yvsa, and Cougar is an honor.

So there, J. I. Clifton!
