Title: Christmas Party????
Post by: muskrat on November 16, 2008, 07:26:29 PM
I'm new but so far everyone has treated me and Elizabeth like life-long friends.  What a hell of a group SO.............I'm having a Christmas party, that's right I said Christmas, at my house in Frisco the first or second weekend in December.  SO that I know it's worth blocking off my "super" busy calendar I wanted to guage interest.

I will be off to Omaha and Lincoln so I may be slow in responding this week.

Oh, no Political Correctness allowed at the party either just fun with friends :P :P :P :P

Should your bike not start, if I see you're too drunk  [evil], you can crash at my house

That's pretty gracious of you to offer a Christmas party at your place!  I'll keep an eye on this thread.

fyi, I think AMS is having their Christmas party the first weekend in Dec.  At least it's on their events calendar.

...and, of course, the first ever Bacon Vodka-Off  ;D


The Christmas party sounds cool, Dax.  [thumbsup]

RE: Bryant's comment: Talked with Derrick and he doesn't know about that party. I too saw it and thought I'd go but then talking with him  last night at the fashion show and he said he thought it was going to be private but didn't know for sure. Guess we'll keep tabs on the calendars. Vodka on the 6th, Christmas party a day before or after?
Thanks, will be watching.

I'm in fasttrack flight dispatcher school till Dec 12, then I'll be free. If I pass the FAA exam, I'll definately be going since I live so close to you. I sure could use a nice cold brew after this class. [beer] By the way, very kind of you to offer an invitation at your place. I'll be caging it if I go since I sold all my bikes three months ago. Next year will be a new toy.  [thumbsup] [moto]

Cool Dax, thanks for the invite.  I would probably skip the work party for a Duc party, hmmm, change "probably" for "definitely".   ;)

Ooh, oooh, oooh, I have a never used set of passenger foot pegs (removed immediately after purchasing my S2R 800 as no one was ever allowed to ride 'pregnant dog' on the back of my bike) that I can wrap nicely in a gift bag for the White Elephant!

I won't be needing them - I don't think there is any place left on my bike on which to attach them  [clap]

Any evening except the 13th has my vote.  Big disaster recovery test at work, which would take most of the evening  [bang]  Missing the party would be the disaster I wish to avoid.

I was just making sure you knew about that possible conflict.  I'm really going to need a party soon.

The liver will be funding my dry clutch... or was it my kidney?

I'd be down for a W.E. as well.  I think I have some left over Monster parts

The 13th is not great for Cyette & I too - so we'll keep an eye on your thread and hope it lands a different day  !!   [beer]

[thumbsup] Since I got my wish from11/17 I thought I would quote myself for a bump !  [leo]

This is definitely not a flash party - smoldering is more like it !!  8)

To catch y'all up Muskrat & Muskratess are having a Christmas Party ! - NO PC !! 

D2R thinks a White Elephant Ducati related gift would amuse hooligans !

In all fairness...
Dax, since you did post this up first and I in my stupid is as stupid does mode didn't think to check the board, I'll bow out for this weekend if that's when you're planning your party. Please let me know what you would like to do. Advantage DAX!

In all honesty Dax, I didn't remember your original thread much lest my post [bang] and I bet there are others like Red and I. 

The Bacon-Vodka meet had a continuous thread for a month or more which kept it in the front of our minds, as well as jars of vodka sitting, steeping, freezing, and filtering all around our abodes.
Plus who the hell ever heard of such a thing before. 

I like your style of joining a ride with a party, with the ride before. [thumbsup]

Wish I could make both, hope I can make the one closer to me.

Good people all around in this DFW group, blessed I am one. :)

Sounds fun to me. As soon as plans solidify, I'll post it on the calendar.

So the Muskrat Christmas Party is on the 20th ?  I hope there is some party on the 20th !   [beer]
