We enjoy the company of men from all different creeds and ages. Priests and seminarians get in for free but are not shown any partiality in debate. Fathers may bring their sons as long as they accompany them.

Even without the salad this menu is sounding kind of "femme" to me:

red wine herbed mushroom?
smoked SALMON?
wild berries?
flavored LIQUOR?

What's next month? Sushi rolls with sea salt and vinegar baked chicken?:-)

You left out the part about the after speech karaoke. You know, where all you guys wail on "My Way" and sob to "El Paso" I've seen the video. LOL!

Sounds like a great meeting. As usual, I'm jealous. I still think Crazy Mama and I need to stage an invasion.

Cath - just go in drag.

Ray - do you realize how funny "No Salads" reads for this particular meeting?

Cathy:

The "green-eyed monster", envy, raises its ugly head!

Some days, they probably wouldn't get excited. But if last month's by Fr. Altier on the Devil and Exorcisms was SRO, they are figuring that this month we'll be sitting on somebody's lap.


Terry:
I'm just realizing that now!

It was meant as a private joke! But I see what you mean.

I'll probably get accused of a "hate crime" now.

Ray, hon, I would forgo sitting on any man's lap for this particular talk. Maybe next month you can do that again, sweetie.

Luv ya!

Cath:

If it's crowded, given the nature of the presentation by Father Echert on April 8, I would prefer that you sit on my lap rather than one of the normal attendees.

I'm already plotting my disguise.
Now that I'm not so obviously female (it would have been hard pulling that big, baby belly off as a "beer gut"), it should be a lot easier!

HA!...on the "lap" comment! Heeheeheehee!

Seriously, I don't go to those boring women's conferences or mom's time out type of dealios because they are so...GIRLY. Dang, Ray! Why you gotta go and brag about that last month's meeting, huh? Now I'm all covet-y again!

Ray: You dirty boy you!!!

Cathy, just to let the readers know, I'll be keeping my hands on the Smoked Salmon, the Charcoal Roasted Sirloin Tip the potato salad and the "Triple Chocolate Cake covered in wild berries served with Chocolate Espresso Ice cream and everything gets smothered in a Chocolate Liqueur Sauce."

I'll be too busy (for a while) to be doing anything else!

:-O~~~

If you can make it, Vinnie, I'll save you a seat up front.

And if you can come early to help with the food preparation, you might even get an extra Triple Chocolate Cake covered in wild berries served with Chocolate Espresso Ice cream and everything gets smothered in a Chocolate Liqueur Sauce. And perhaps an Indian Pale Ale by Summit!
