[billbillw]

Anyone coming yet? I might actually be free for a little while on that day.

[Conradicles]

Have a good time guys!

P.S.

Let me borrow that tube amp George.:);)

[zombie boy 2000]

I'm pretty sure I should be able to make it.

[ben62670]

I'm pretty sure I should be able to make it.

I gave up on you. Those tweeters Jerry bought are freaken awesome! Don't bring a cell phone charger. I still have yours:) I have some good news too;)

[zombie boy 2000]

What are the details? Who's all coming? When are we starting? And... poop.

If you are going,, bring a BIG SUV,, cause I'm bringing your amazings.:eek:

[george daniel]

Have a good time guys!

P.S.

Let me borrow that tube amp George.:);)

How close do you live to Tom? He will have it in a few days.

[zombie boy 2000]

You mean they won't fit in my Dodge Neon? These are bookshelves, right?

[treitz3]

George, I hope that you and the wife are feeling better, I'm in no rush. Oh, if Lightman1 is still coming down to Ben's then then you can just give the gear to him and I'll just catch up with him whenever, he's only about 45 minutes from the house.

Ben, I'm not gonna be able to make this one. I have a gym I have to sheetrock in and paint........and it's on a deadline. Sorry man. I haven't gotten the Clearview crossover yet, James is still using it in his system. I'll bring it down next go 'round.

[ben62670]

CANCELED!
No Lightman equals no fun!!!
Rain date next week:)

[treitz3]

What's up with Putzboy?

[zombie boy 2000]

Define "douche"....

"Douche" is ME calling off the mountains of hookers and blow to attend a mini-Polk gatherin' in Conyers. Next week, eh? Sounds splendid. I'll be sure to bring the quiche and escargot.

Wife is fine,,Mom was hospitalized, discharged now,, Dodd shipped,LMK on the Anthem ship or p/u--me, can't sleep, flu/aches etc,, next w/e looks good for me.Everyone stay healthy,,nasty crap going around.

[ben62670]

Everyone knows my policy. It's open door here. If you drink here you stay here. We will have food this time:o Lightman claimed the laundry room already. If Tom makes it he has the corner at the top of the stairs. There is plenty of room for others. You guys can have your own room, or bunk with a buddy. Most of us are in touch by phone. I am just bumping this for shy Polkies who haven't been here;)
Take care.
Ben

[ben62670]

Activities will start Friday. Jerry and I will be preparing food, and setting up a bit. It will continue till Sunday morning. The corner at the top of the stairs is now open. Tom will not be able to make it. It sounds like we won't have a banjo player here either, but I did speak with a wino who is willing to play the spoons for 3 bottle of Boone's Farm Snow Creek Berry. I tried to talk him down to two bottles. I couldn't. Someone will have to pitch in the extra $2.50 to cover the price of the 3rd bottle. I invited Teddy. He graciously declined. He has a gig to go to. There will be chicks where he is going. We only have chickens. Lightman and Jerry I challenge you to a chicken race. The first man to get his chicken to one end of the yard, and back wins bragging rights.

ROTFLAMAO!!! You guys are sick!

Ah 90% is humor in case the PC people don't get it. Ef them if they don't. Ef them if they do. Well its late. We are pretty much done here. We spun some vinyl. That is always a blast. Real good time. we have o get up early, but again thanks to the folks that showed. Real nice to meet Steve. Peace out.
Ben

[hearingimpared]

You wusses are turning in so early????

[ben62670]

Please don't call PETA, but it appears one of the chickens has a soft spot for rum and cokes.

[ben62670]

The kitchen table looked like a mobile police narcotics lab. We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, and a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers . . . and also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of Budweiser, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls . . . Not that we needed all that for the get together, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. And I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon. The bathroom floor was about six inches deep with soap bars, vomit, and grapefruit rinds, mixed with broken glass. I had to put my boots on every time I went in there to piss.

[thsmith]

Sounds like a good time was had by all Ben ;)

[hearingimpared]

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAA you mainiac.

[Face]

All of a sudden I'm glad I don't live near our southern Polkies...

So where are the pics?

She is much cuter in person.

[zombie boy 2000]

That hand looks familiar....

[Face]

That hand looks familiar....
It looks like it's from a corpse.

[ben62670]

That hand looks familiar....

I love that jacket.

[zombie boy 2000]

What can I say? I'm a first class pimp.

[ben62670]

I like the modded pocket for the fast draw Hoe slap;)

[zombie boy 2000]

Yeah... I tend to wear my clothes until they eventually disintegrate off my body. I should really look into investing in the always booming safety pin market.

[ben62670]

Dude that Jacket deserves to be repaired before it gets worse. I am still upset about my Billy Jack brown suede leather coat with the white stitching. I feel the white threads show off the quality of the workmanship that went into that attire. Some may think I am a little off with some of my ideas, but I think there was a conspiracy linked to the disappearance of the coat. All my buddies hated when I wore. They said it embarrassed them. I think they were just jealous because I received many comments on it, and it made many people smile. They stole stole it. I don't know what they did with it, and I hate to accuse, but they stole it. Dude keep that jacket. It works.

So where are the pics?[/QUOTE]

Did someone say Pics....? I have the pics. Pics for sale, get your pics here.:D I just need to get them approved by everyone:eek:

[ben62670]

Are you saying you are selling the pics, or do we have to pay you to not post them:eek::p

[dorokusai]

Did I miss this?! Oh snap.

[ben62670]

Did I miss this?! Oh snap.

You did. EarlyB even read Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs to us:)

[dorokusai]

That's tight. Local GTG's are very cool, good on you for hosting. Please tell ZombieBoy he is persona nongrata in my house. No real reason, just let him know.

[zombie boy 2000]

I've got a bit of a jacket fetish to be honest. I'll rock cordoroy for days (suede arm patches, you betcha...).

[zombie boy 2000]

Doro... you just made my heart melt. Literally. Now you have to pay my doctor's bills.

[ben62670]

I love to have GTG's here. The last owners left the house with some imperfections do to at least one chew happy dog, two little boys, and the carpets are not A1 condition. There are no worries about minor mishaps. Also no WAF allows people to just feel free in my home. The only way to irritate me in my house is to not be comfortable. I am undecided about the pool though. When the house was purchased the people that drained, and caged the pool to make for a legal sale ruined it. There are major tares in the liner from ladders, and they turned the pumps on and left to drain it. The pumps are shot, and the liner is shot. Hot tube is shot too:( No real income means no pool for a while:( The rear deck is sweet. I love the rails. I am looking forward to another GTG when it warms a bit. Grilling this time would be cool. I truly am country, and may be just a little hick, but these GTG's really are fun. The AH incident was totally confusing. We do enjoy getting together. It is a great way to meet people with a passion for audio. A stay here is in order(yes people can stay). It is more than just audio here. It is a great time to just relax, step back, and take it in. My goal here is everyone who comes leaves with a sore face, and stomach from laughter. With times being what they are I want people forget about the seriousness of the doldrums of everyday life. Thanks to everyone who showed. You guys are the best. Having no family, but the kids, and X wife makes times tuff. Again you guys are the best. In all seriousness I am so happy I found the Polk family. Newbs may not grasp what we have here, but I sure do.

[zombie boy 2000]

Now YOU have to pay my doctor's bills. You take a lot of **** Ben, but anyone that's met you knows you come from the family of "bee's knees".

On a side note, the bastard actually let me pollute his rig with my "reference material". The hostess with the mostess.

[ben62670]

It's al good. I have TMBG in my changer still. What freaking track is partical man? Is that on disk two?

[Face]

No pics?

Impressions of his speaks?

[zombie boy 2000]

It's al good. I have TMBG in my changer still. What freaking track is partical man? Is that on disk two?

Track 7 on the "green CD". Flood would be the name.

Like many TMBG songs, there is no unambiguous meaning, but one interpretation is that the song reflects the metaphysical conflict between quantum mechanics, Christian theology, and general relativity, all of which leave the average man at a loss.



Particle man, particle man
Doing the things a particle can
What's he like? It's not important
Particle man

Is he a dot, or is he a speck?
When he's underwater does he get wet?
Or does the water get him instead?
Nobody knows, Particle man

Triangle man, Triangle man
Triangle man hates particle man
They have a fight, Triangle wins
Triangle man

Universe man, Universe man
Size of the entire universe man
Usually kind to smaller man
Universe man

He's got a watch with a minute hand,
Millenium hand and an eon hand
When they meet it's a happy land
Powerful man, universe man

Person man, person man
Hit on the head with a frying pan
Lives his life in a garbage can
Person man

Is he depressed or is he a mess?
Does he feel totally worthless?
Who came up with person man?
Degraded man, person man

Triangle man, triangle man
Triangle man hates person man
They have a fight, triangle wins

BTW I was going for the James Bond/Nick Nolte/Sasquatch look this weekend. I think I pulled it off.

[nadams]

C'mon, man... you can't clear the way for the other gatherings coming up??? Now I have to bump my thread again ;)

Wish I could be there Bro. It's tough to get a group of guys together. The lasting relationships from these gaterings is just great. Anyone who is close, and does not make an effort to get to one is a putz.
Get together Polkies!
Ben

[treitz3]

Edited. again, this was a PM.

Crap.

[SBrown712]

Somehow I missed this thread completely. I would have paid to keep my pics off here. I guess if I don't tell what I look like no one will know which one is me anyway. I had a good time and am looking forward to the next get together.

We will be in touch. There is another get together in the mix, and you are certainly welcome.

[reeltrouble1]

Holy Moly........talk about some shots of the unshaven, unwashed and unclean.......

[SBrown712]

Oh come on, I took a shower and shaved just to go to this thing.
