There are pants in the South Pacific!!

Zanna has completed the pants. These specially knitted pants are a Christmas present for her brother who thought it would be funny to tell her to knit pants. Don't mess with Zanna - she will knit you the pants and so she has.

The Bosnian did not ask for pants - Thank goodness!

Look the Tree is not Naked!!

"O'Christmas Tree, O'Christmas Tree" The season was rung in with Brittany and Elenore's Christmas Tree Decorating Party that turned into typical madness. Activity Day the past week Elenore had brought in mass craft supplies and enlisted the slave labor of the cast to decorate her naked tree ("Chapter"). Using a tricky psychology method she made it seem like a fun game to pump out ridculous ornaments for the tree at their house. Most of the cast was fooled by this and proceed to cut, glue, glitter and staple their hands(yes this is real) while making said ornaments.
At the party once the decorating was out of the way the real fun could begin. There were tasty treats include Zanna's favorite - hummus. Flosi out did himself with a 5 pint size glass filled with Jagermiester and Red Bull and proceeded down the "wasted" path.


Denise in need of serious alcohol consummption took a bunch of the wasty folks to the drive thru liquor store. Without a backseat mayhem insued and well...a picture is worth a thousand words. Back at the party there was singing, Wendy the Ho, merriment, and more drinking. Almost everyone made an appearance - even Courtney - we have photographic evidence.



Wrapping up at Denise's house with Whataburger (oh how we love the honey butta mudders), drunken singing phone messages ("Arise and Seize the Day") some weird fun with a half a manequin. At one point we even left Flosi behind - that will teach to have long conversations on your phone. Well learned lesson as he ran to catch the car.

However the Bosnian was not fooled by the trickiness of Elenore and made no ornament but did come to the party to steal food and beer. Those tricky Bosnians

Top Ten Ways to Impress the Bloggers...

...And make the Blog!

Many of you have asked us how to "make the blog." So here is the top ten ways we have come up with:

10. Take a picture with the bloggers (this is the lamest way to make the blog - far too easy since we are always "mugging" for the camera)

9. We love Starbucks, a nice hot drink is great way to suck up. FYI our favorites: Denise: Pumpkin Spice Latte; Michael: Carmel Machiatto with half/half, triple shot, extra Carmel, whip cream on the side, low foam. Zanna: Iced Passion Herbal Tea; The Van: Unleaded latte, extra foam, oil on the side.

8. Throw a Party! Hosts of parties almost always make the blog (unless your party sucks, in which case no one wants to remember it). But helpful hints to ensure your parties success and making the blog are as follows:
a) Alcohol - this with out a doubt is the single best way to ensure that everyone will have a good time and go a little crazy (craziness is a great blog topic) Having your bloggers favorite drinks handy is also important (vodka, rum and Bud Lite is a good place to start)
b) Themes/Event - Everyone likes a good theme or event! Costumes, tournaments, Holidays are all good ways to get the party started. The more extravagant the details the more there is to blog about. (Costumes make great photos - hint hint)
c)Hot Tub/Pool/Large body of water - enough said - haven't you seen "Real World"

7. Make excellent baked goods! Please see Whit B. for recipes and details. Hilarity will ensue if baked properly and ingested in large amounts.

6. Wardrobe - Your outfit reflects who you are. Wear something that embarrasses yourself and others around you. Go out with the group dressed up (if they will allow you to be seen in public with them). Make sure that photos are taken - this is the proverbial tree in the forest. If there is no proof - it didn't happen!

5. Come down with a rare disease and infect multitudes of people. However, this has already been used so probably not best if tried again until the next show. And Kurtis has dibbs on this one I am sure for at least the next two shows.

4. Bar Excursions - not all bar trips are worthy of the blog -however if you can tell us who closed and opened and closed the bar you are definitely blog worthy and probably WASTED!

3. Pranks! - Everyone loves a good prank - expect maybe the person getting pranked. These must be thought out, detailed, elaborate, non hurtful jokes. The more involved the better. The longer it goes on the better. Identities kept secret or misdirections - extra points. By the by - pranking the bloggers will definitely make the blog however we are not fond of being the butt of the prank - and are terribly mean and ruthless in retribution. (just keep that in mind) This will definitely make the blog - beware!

2. Coining the new show "phrase" If you are savvy enough to create the phrase that everyone adds to their vernacular then the title of a blog could be in your future. Every show has one, so try starting the trend. Past examples include: "Chapter" "I'm Wasted" "Christina" "Honey Budder Mudder: known to Tim L as slfiuaiohdoairyg%&@**!@" "Glorious"

1. Pee on a Onesy. - Documentation necessary

Or perhaps one may choose to go with the easy path to being blogtastick and be Bosnian.....they always make the blog.

"You Are Beautiful"

Who knew? Old Chicago had two dollar pints! This is GLORIOUS, and we can't believe it took us this long to find out this important news. However there was an unsuspecting surprise for some of us as we opened the door to this fabulous establishment. As Zanna and Michael opened the door they were greeted with earsplitting strains of "Bohemian Rhapsody" After venturing further in they discovered the vocal chords producing these rare sounds were a horny manatee with tattoos (not done in Sharpie). KARAOKE! After fighting off the Tagliani Ninja's for a table, food and the world's biggest plate of nachos were ordered. People continued to pour in for the fun. And then the singing began. Jill T started us off (damn her for opening the flood gates)with a little country swing. And the book passed round and round. Todd sang a love song to Mike S celebrating their apparent anniversary which then switched to Paul. I don't think that Todd can make up his mind. Some Dixie Chicks visited us, and then Paul's full staged musical tribute of Toxic got us all up out of seats and wishing that we could take off some clothes. The dancing craze lead to a Bud Frump Walk Off - staged on the fabulous runway between two tables. Todd totally lost - what do you expect from an understudy. Robb serenaded the group with "Unchained Melody" - you know the song from Ghost with the clay. Choreography to Honey Bun was put into action by Jill and Zanna to the melodic sounds of Gwen Stefani's "Rich Girl". But to cap off the night there was a rare treat. Sitting cross-legged on the bar top, Paul had channeled the spirit of Christina Aguilara. He crooned "You Are Beautiful" to a enraptured crowd. The Bosnian had a hard time accepting this.
