The Great Texas Lots-of-Reasons-to-Have-a-Party Party is officially open!! ![]() One catch: there is a cover charge. Please present Mongo the Doorman with either --
As you may know, all native CoNST dishes are variations of boiled Wonder Bread, so we're going the World Leader route. See the next posting. Here are some of the reasons for this party. Choose the one you want to celebrate: 1. The SuperBowl: celebrate the Patriots victory or mourn the Panthers defeat. Whichever, it was still a great game. 2. Cheer on another successful deployment of the Texas Defense Force (TDF), this time to the Islas Norte. ![]() 3. Get warmed up for RavenclawCommonRoom's Valentine Party. When you stumble out of here, you don't have to go home, you can head right on to the next party! ![]() (See http://invisionfree.com/forums/Texas/index.php?showtopic=374) 4. Get a head start on some "Almost" milestones that we are too anxious to wait around for:
Come on in, choose your topic, and celebrate the best region in NS Land! Dweezil Beefheart Secretary of Entertainment |

Since CoNST cuisine has a habit of killing conversation and causing long lines at the bathroom, we're entering this party with this profile of that Wild Man of the Wild Sands, that wacky daffy despot, the guy with the funny hats, the most unGoogleable world leader on the Internet :![]() Brother Leader Muammar Khaddafy/Ghaddafy/Gaddafi/whatever! What? Why in the world would anybody profile a nut-case dictator who is responsible for murdering and torturing untold thousands of people? Well, for one thing, he's a heck of a lot more entertaining than, say, those dour old Iranian Ayatollahs. When Wacky Ghaddafi goes on a state visit, he goes with panache! Quoted from http://www.photodude.com/weblog/2002/july/...dafi_live.shtml
![]() Or from http://malawihere.com/viewnews.asp?id=455&recnum=1599&catid=
![]() And finally, he may be nuts, and he may have blood on his hands from the past, but looking to the future, he "gets" it: he apparently is rejecting the self-defeating Arab culture that has been poisoning Islam, and he has decided to play ball with the West. And within his own sphere, he has rejected the primitive 12th century view of women, providing himself with a fearsome, all-female personal bodyguard unit that recently kicked the butts of an Egyptian security detail. ![]() You won't see a security guard like this in Saudi Arabia!! If the Colonel wants to come in from the cold, let's see what happens! |

Hurray for the TDF! Viva Texas! I love my job, talking to you good folks and attending parties. What more could a Benevolently Evil Dictator ask for? Well, the world perhaps but that is another issue. I shall bring roast ninja-monkey and mu shoo ninja-monkey from my true nation, The Sensitive New Age. I hope you folks appreciate it, the ninja-monkeys frolic wild in the woods and need to be caught. In the process we lost five people, but on the bright side the ninja-monkeys got fed! On further note, AMbassadorship has a new flag, in fact all the 10000 Islands Ambassadors have this flag, for a good, large view go to http://www.quoddicit.net/temp/10kflag1.gif Smashing speech on Kaddafi. |

The Varukan Ambassador will be attending this meeting, and will be bringing a delicacy of Texarnican home-food(The Varukers are an offbranch of the Federation of Texarnica - i will be RPing them as such). The dish they are bringing is the Steppin Stone Style Pizza(however controversial this may be, do not let it affect the outlook of The Heartland or The Varukers change because of it. Marijuana is simply tied in greatly with Texarnican History and Culture.) Steppin Stone Style Pizza Incredients 4 kinds of Cheeses Pepperoni Italian Sausage Fresh Picked Tomatoes(one key incredient, must be picked that morning) (and, alas, i must add this part. If you wish, we can special bake them so this incredient is excluded from the pizzas. However, if nothing is said......LET THE PARTY BEGIN!!) 1 Ounce Marijuana baked into pizza Now, lets get this feast underway!

My outstanding and esteemed partying Texans, I cannot hope to follow the salute to Khaddafi or whatever his name is spelled like this week. Wow, CoNST, :wow2. In lieu of praise of an unusual world leader, I hope all will accept as my cover charge the massive praise of the TDF, an outrageous endorsement of Ravenclawcommonroom's Day party :redheart, and toasted pecans and pecan pies, some of my specialties. The saltiness complements the gin and tonics (which yes, I have the ingredients for as well); the sweet is a yummy dessert. Also, to make a contribution to the general randomness of the usual parties, I have brought a music video. Of sorts. . . . http://users.wolfcrews.com/toys/vikings/ Cheers and party on! Rock 'n' roll! ![]() Yvonne of AbFab |

Dixie and her uncle, T. Paul Ane DaChaoui have agreed to prepare a big kettle full of their famous Louisiana chili. It's got some fine ingredients Now, I know President Mercer from Even Greater Texas thinks chili shouldn't have beans, but he'll like this concoction, I garontee. It'll cure what ails ya Served with a little rice, relish, and cheese, T. Paul will be dishing it up with his own, unique flair. It's an art.Dixie will be wearing her favorite party dress And, of course I'll be there, but Dix has insisted I limit my drinking, so I'm going to take it easy . And, I'm still having trouble getting near tacos, so no one take offense if I don't try yours. TEXANS KNOW HOW TO PARTY

Seeing as CoNST made his tribute to everyones favorite wacky dictator so hard an act to follow, I will simply provide food and drink. My idea for the food was a new twist on a classic. Take a chicken breast, stuff it with a mix of pepperjack cheese, diced tomatoes, and jalapenos. Bake as long as needed (ovens vary as far as cooking speed). What you have is Chicken Cordon Bleu: Tex Mex Version. I will provide one for each of the partygoers.As an added treat, I also...ahem...appropriated a little moonshine from my great uncle in Kentucky who has a very nice little distillery in the hills somewhere (no I'm not going to tell you where it is, you can make your own moonshine). There are only three gallon jugs of it so you need to share...keep a close eye on your husband around that stuff Dixie!

For the most fleeting of moments, Dweezil's face betrays a hint of surprise. He quickly regains his composure, and looks around the table. "These guys are GOOD," he thinks to himself. Once again he pauses; considers. "Shut up and dance!" he says as he pushes yet another stack of chips to the mounting pile. http://www.cci-ammunition.com/home/homecontent.html# Tweety, Yvonne, Richard and the others around the table look shocked at this uncharacteristic display of bad manners. Then they realize that it's a hint, not a demand... |

High Queen Pope Hope IV strolls into the party, looking elegant and reserved. Then...as if hit by a bolt of lightening...she drops her cloak, runs into the middle of the dance floor, and begins to boogie down, Texas style. Justice Valencia (Secretary of State) and Rogue Pignon (Speaker of the House), walk in behind her, stifling giggles behind their own Nasicournian thread cloaks. Each carries a silver dish filled with the most famous of all Hopian cookies...the NewJava Scotian Chocolate Hopian Nut Cookie with HelSansian Frosting. Valencia dives for the sushi table, winking at Richard I. Rogue casually sips wine out of a golden chalice and continues to laugh quietly at his allusions of grandeur. Hopians know how to party. ![]() Thank you for inviting is here! |
