Pool Hall / Lounge
This is NOT a “Classy Place”.
Please try not to spill more beer – the floor is sticky enough.

I hope Sniff is sending over the pool tables
It would get going when I’m late starting dinner.
If there’s a snooker tournament I want to be in it.
See ya’ll in a while.
It probably will go on for a while — if you have to feed George.
Sniff’s trying to decide how he wants to shoot the break.
that’s my favorite picture
Yeah, me too, I want a doggie so bad I can almost smell one.
When we finally get smellernet I send you a whiff of all three of them when they are soaking wet. That ought to send you over the edge one way or the other.
last one I had was a border collie, 14 years, played the Byrd’s, “Bye Bye Blue you good dog you” at the funeral. Good thing I was alone at the time. The white coats might ‘ve come for me.
Anyway, after each and every bath it was an absolute necessity (of hers) to go find the oldest carcass she could to “fix” things.
Eventually the humans learned to tie her to a tree for a few hours, or just not leave her unattended… till she got reacquainted with the her new self.
Oh, no! Not smellernet! Y’all won’t let me in anymore & I’ll be terribly upset.
Not to worry, we know it’s Sat night, so we’re assuming by now that you’ve had your weekly…
That remains a secret (thankfully) ..
Pshaw, you’re talking to someone who loves the smell of turpentine, wet dogs, and stables.
Yet another reason for me to feel fortunate in your company, Andi π
Look at that poodum – what a sweetiepie!!! π
I think you must be related to the Gooserock family. They also have no heads, but it doesn’t seem to bother them.
I have a head but it’s not anywhere as cute as Sniff’s so why waste the pixels.
SN, if I typed LOL every time you made me laugh you’d start confusing me with refinish69.
π
where IS agent 69 — out undercover?
Making subversive mischief in the outer world, no doubt.
Holy shit, after reading the last lounge it’s pretty clear ya’ll need a designated driver.
it was all ej’s fault
yeah
Was that Family Man I saw sprawled out on the pool table?
well, he was under the table in the reading room because NDD put Everclear into the punch and Family Man didn’t know the sorority rule — never trust the punch.
But then he recovered until ej introduced him to the wine with legs and she kind of did him in
Okaaay, I’m totally clear on that now. Last I saw you were discussing hi-brow stuff like reading and next thing I know there’s a walking beer and snooker tables.
I told you it was all ej’s fault. He decided my saturday afternoon classy soiree wasn’t any fun and, well here we are in the non-classy pool hall having loads of fun.
although NDD is right — ej had so much fun he decided to go out to a real bar
hey what’s this! ej’s gone off to the non-virtual bar and can’t defend himself.
It was maryb that was pouring the everclear in everyone’s beer.
I’ve found that ej can defend himself quite well even from a real bar. He’ll be back.
good strategy — always blame the one that’s gone.
no
blame the one that’s at fault
if I was going to blame someone just because they were gone I could blame Cali — because after all it IS her birthday and there would have been no punch and no everclear and hence no beer or pool hall without that.
you need to catch up
have a beer
just don’t spill TOO MUCH on the floor
I’ll offer my services as the designated driver, since I’m not much for the alkeehol.
you’re probably one of those “herb-ivores” then, eh?
Lord, no. You’d think being German I could hold my liquor, but no such luck.
SN — the secret to my late night success is that I know the beer is virtual so I can keep up with the guys.
just between you and me
go for it
have a beer
Okay but I have to warn you ~ I’m easy when I’m drunk. You’re gonna have to babysit me, I’m afraid.
there are no promise keepers in the pool hall, you are safe π
No, they’re all at home downloading porn.
Do you think if you give her enough beers we can get SN to strip off her shirt and dance on the tables — that’s what always happened at bierstubes I used to go to.
here, give her this as soon as she looks close to finishing the last one
If you two will join me, sure. Although the way maryb brags about her bosom I’m sure no one would be looking at me.
that’s so passe
let’s have the guys dance for us later?
where is she? did she pass out?
Damn, under the table instead of on top.
OTOH, that could be much better, depending on who else is down there.
are you sure she didn’t leave with someone — she said she was easy when she was drunk?
maybe she left with Family Man!
herb-ivores as in thisslight clarification
Heh. I knew that. I’m down with the….ah….lingo.
for the cafe what’s needed is a designated commenter.
Are you volunteering!!!
Nah. I may be sober but I’m completely unreliable.
Where’s Bu when we need her?
I ordered pizza (this pool hall has no kitchen)
I’ll pass on the pizza but if you got any mujaddarah and tabbouleh I’ll take a heap of both.
?????????????????
what kind of pool halls do you frequent?
Duh, middle eastern pool halls, of course.
where are those? Ohio?
Ok, you got me ~ I forgot we were in a pool hall. I could have sworn I saw a hookah.
that was last night — you missed manny when he was here.
actually I’m wrong, that was the night before last
Looks like the froggies ate all the pizza.
Drink made and perfected by be. For real.
(pitcure snatched from elsehwere, though)
You take frozen raspberry margaritas or daiquiries and frozen mango margies or daiguiries and layer em.

Sorry – older email. Orange juice is good to add, too.
all right! Janet finds a blender behind that scuzzy bar. (and washed it I hope)
I have got to rewrite that recipe one day – the concentrate should be slushy frozen. Not thawed. For a better frozen blended drink effect.
The recipe can be fudged with. There’s no “wrong” thing to do.
Also, an easy easy lime daq is this
Limeade Concentrate
After emptying into blender, fill concentrate can about 1’2 with rum. Blend. Enjoy.
Raspberry Lemonade works like a beaut, too.
Cherry Lemonade does, too.
The BT resident expert mixologist has spoken. The nectar of the internets is within your grasp…all hail DAMMIT!
Peace
does she have DaDa tatooed on her arm?
like she belongs to you?
Unfortunately no. It’s someone named Alex…mystery to me…Dammit, help me out here.
Peace
of course, for all we know your REAL name is alex
Truth be told, I’m infatuated with YOU…just a sucker for sassy chicks with pink toenails.
<duck, cover…run like hell>
Peace
heh
get in line
I haven’t looked lately. I don’t pay much attention to the line.
Next time, I’ll make a blendy for DaDa and Bu.
You like coconut milk?
Any particular fruit you like?
Or it could be a yummy smoothie.
A Bu-thie π
Oooooooooooh I like her haircut! I think I could get away with that cut. )still growing out the worst haircut ever! LOL)
Truly, I need to revamp that recipe. I now add orange juice to the Mango and raspberry blends.
Can also use cranberry concentrate and use tequila (or rum) with orange juice for a great Thanksgiving Kickerita.
I LOVE frozen drinks and I have killed a few blenders. Black and decker used to make a great problend. You could make GRAVELritas if you wanted with their BL600. But it died because someone kept putting ice in first. Ice goes in last. Now I have an old Oster Beehive which is great.
ice goes in last?
that’s my problem and why I kill blenders.
Yup Ice goes in last.
Better still is to put 1/2 the ice in last – blend. Then add the other 1/2.
I ain’t a blender expert by any means, but I like to wash and drain immediately rather than leave water stand in it. Seems like the gunk doesn’t get down around the shaft and gum up as easily that way.
Totally Great Boo-fers! Thanks so much for all the moral support yesterday! What a team! I am humbled! (Plus cheered up, thank you!)
have a beer?
I’ll drink to that!
ANd if you drink enough beer you can pee in your boss’s water.
I’m formulating my battle plan.
Just blows our mind at this house. We were talking about you last night at dinner. We all want you to know we wish we could “in the flesh” give you a hug of love and reassurance and are crossing fingers and toes that get a new and great job real soon.
((((Myth)))))
(((Damnit Janet)))
Right back to you!
My son is having a little bit of trouble relating to my situation right now, so I gave him the link to the Froggy Bottom discussion, and he was really impressed.
I hope you’ve been able to take a lot of walks along the ocean to get solace from the loveliness of nature and use the quietness to think of new and interesting ways to torture your boss.
Exactly! And here is one of my co-conspirators! (Taking a nap, of course.)
If’n ya got a Canadian Goose on your side nothin’ can stop ya!!
That’s what I’m thinkin!
Having seen what a flock of geese can do to any place they hang out, I suggest you give them your boss’ address.
Yes. Sooner or later he will slip in the slick of his own shit.
Wow. Yet another truly lovely image, mythmother. To me, this is a perfect picture of peace & serenity.
Thanks so much for all the images you’ve shared!
It’s a great, great thing to be able to experience & record such beauty despite various horrors, no?
Oh, yes! Maybe there’s a book in there….
Hey, what’s goin’ on? I haven’t been able to catch up with you guys all day!
Too funny!!! π We used to take carboard and slide down stairs and hills when there wasn’t any snow. π
I never knew anyone with stairs, but one time when we were teenagers, a couple of friends and I drew doors and headlights on a box to make it look like a car and went to the Jack in the Box drive-thru in the middle of the night. They wouldn’t serve you if you were walking, but they relented.
OMG that is SO funny
Hi Izzy
have a beer
Thanks! I thought of you guys as soon as I saw it.
All the “recent comments” except one is from here, what a kick, must be a slow night for the diaries. Or maybe everyone’s just had enough of all that for the time being.
Just had to go check and see if any of you guys were multitasking, genetics has prohibited me from that endeavor.
It was kind of funny for a while to watch the lounge talk be interspersed with “serious” talk about politics. We outlasted them.
If I was to invite a party crowd, you guys would be it for sure. If’n you’re all even half the characters you are here we’re all in for a treat when we manage to get together.
A ND BT whoopdeedo ought to be about half way for DJ and WW. Hmmm, maybe this fall… or next summer.
haul the pool tables, your cues and your unfinished beers on over to part III of the pool tournament.
Leave the mess behind.
