Potentially interesting proposal(?), yet I will be remiss at WFO-9!

However, my question would be, "will the lecture include Video or Powerpoint?"

Actually, Don, that could be done. IIRC, wasn't TWN's memorial service streamed? Some of you have the necessary skills, talent and equipment.

OMG, JB live on the neener-net? He'll be infamous! :blink:

Mr. Ionbeam, here-here, sir, well said!

Well, shit Hans. You're only saying that because you know it's a heck of a lot harder to be accurate with a pitcher than a longneck. Most of us biker saloon pitchers practice pitching with Bud longnecks.

In the deep and inciting insightful words of FJRless:

...I made it half-way through the second paragraph before I realized your post was actually ...3 or ...4 paragraphs long. About that time, I concluded that you are quite full of yourself. Then I remembered one other of your posts that left me with the same impression. Kudos to anyone who actually managed to finish the read You must have ample time on your hands and the patience of Job.

On that subject, I saw this great comment today from the San Francisco Chronicle's sagacious and articulate movie critic, Mick LaSalle, which I think is on point in possibly understanding our colleague's abhorence of too many paragraphs:



Dear Mr. LaSalle
: A reader asks if you're "an elitist snob." Given the way popular culture has invaded every aspect of our lives, I wish more people would take the risk of being elitist snobs. Michael Biehl, San Francisco
 

Dear Mr. Biehl
: Risking it is OK; being it isn't. Snobbishness is about fear. Low-class snobs fear good books, music and movies out of some irrational terror that they won't understand them or they might encounter some truth about themselves that they'd rather avoid.

The old quip: I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed man.

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me, than a pre-frontal labotomy? :blink:

But I'm pretty sure the title of it will be something like, "What in the Hell is it with FJRs Anyway?” Or if not that, maybe, “The FJR: WTF?!”

Sounds like the speech I gave at my local Toastmasters club last week, "What the heck is ATGATT?".

Wish I could be there for yours, but will have to miss it this year.

 

[Checkswrecks]

...that last drink with Fairlaner before I have to go up to the podium....

How about some humor thrown in? That's all imbibing people on vacation really care about...

Last drink?

Imbibing and vacations?

JB's buying?

Darn, I gotta get back out there for this one!!!

So I'm working on my speech for Friday night's WFO dinner. I guess it's coming along all right, so I figured I could share some of it with my fellow forum brothers and sisters. On that note, below is an alphabetized list of some words and phrases I pulled out of my [no, not out of there :nono: ] outline, which should give you an idea of the overall theme of my talk: :graduated:

• '66 650 BSA Lightning
• Amal carbs
• Bling
• Bumble bee
• Butt cheeks
• Chaps
• DNA
• Existential
• Fang
• Feces
• Gay
• Hells Angels
• Heroin
• HOG
• Horse’s ass
• Lap dance
• Old Fat Bastard
• Pantomime helmet
• Passion
• Power Rangers
• Servo-mechanism
• Spiderman
• Terminal velocity
• Tribe
• Urine
• Uxorious
• Zippo
