Yeah. Croquet sounds good. I was looking at sets at Canadian Tire last week but Colin wouldn't let me buy one (not sure why but I think it had to do with the kids hitting each other over the head with the mallets). Looked at horse shoes too.

How about Croquet?
That's a nice calm, sneaky sport!
Goes well with refreshing adult beverages, too!
Unless we invite Donna Andrews- she plays full contact-croquet.

Hum - this party is a tad tame at the moment. Where did all the rowdy folk go? No scrabble, no charades, not even a poker game in site.

Can you tell I am adjusting nicely to the comforts of home? Tomorrow it is the Big City for a couple of hours. That should be interesting enough.

Dratted medics!
Rest and regroup this weekend, Jack.

Jack, saw you here on crimespace and wanted to thank you for reviewing Fast Lane when it was out.--Dave

Good plan. Nice of you to contribute to these poor children. I am sure they appreciate it. (okay, so I am being sarcastic). Hope you are all well and good etc, yourself.

I am almost used to being home and cool, dry, and bug free again! Only took two ciders and a bottle of good red wine (well they *said* it was good but frankly I was less than impressed) and a good night's sleep. I may never go outside again.

Sorry, I have spent the day making my semi annual contribution to all the needy children of doctors and other medical personnel. They are fine, I am broke, and lets make tonight an open bar night, okay?

I sure hope this joint is air conditioned and has no bugs or people under, oh say about 30 years old. Cider would be good too.

In other words - I am Ba-ack!

Here's the first batch of Long Island Iced Tea of the day, ladies. Enjoy

Heard it was time for a cocktail....it is late enough now for a Long Island Iced Tea....thankyou!

Thanks ever so!

A Pimms for the lady, as its a bit early for Long Island Iced Tea (but its a double).
At 2:19am on August 9, 2007, Merrill Young said…
Yes please!
How about something summery?
Pimms or a Long Island Iced Tea? Or a Vermoth Cassis?
Nothing rude, thankyou.

Sadly, my library does not have either The Wheelman or Secret Dead Men.
I found similarities to Hiassen with a soupcon of Westlake. Can't wait to get my grubby little paws on the first two.

I called it "Another wowser from the author of The Wheelman,". Could I offer you a drink?
At 1:47am on August 9, 2007, Merrill Young said…
Hey Jack!
Have you read The Blonde, by Duane S. yet?(Nothing you could say will make me attempt to spell his sir name)
I was amazed. It wasn't a book, it was an extravaganza.

I added a couple of things - a wine cooler and the G&T stuff and found a nice chocolate fountain. Would have been too cool to find an applet that had the fountain actually working but java can be a pain on some machines so better to go with ordinary I guess. Although some .gif formats can do motion......

She's amazing, isn't she?
The only caveat I put on the MC drink is that it isn't green.
ick.
Totaly OT, run (don't walk) to your video store and get Paul MacCartney in Red Square.
From his 2003 visit, it was not only an excellent concert, but a documentary about the effect the Beatles had on the fall of communism. Edited devinely and lots of extras, too.

I remember the first web page I did -- took me days to get one page figured out and then things did not show up right. That was in '99 I think, or maybe 2000. Now it takes no time but I am not up to date on stuff so it is really pretty basic. Still fun and since I don't have a boss I don't have to worry about staying current. Glad you like it. Let me know if you have any additions.
At 7:04am on August 2, 2007, Jack Quick said…
Nah. Most people do like a few drops of vermouth in their martini. You really do awesome work.
At 6:51am on August 2, 2007, LC Fraser said…
Thanks --- so I will change the martini to your recipe - do I just take the reference to vermouth out altogether?
