Meat night


Well, we did our part for the local economy last night.. a little more than any of us had planned, but Meat night was a "Raring" success.. culminating in the wedding of Indiana Jones in church..not our church, but a church all the same... actually I think a church does meet at the Carmike.. so maybe we can say we ended the night literally "in church".. okay, that may be stretching it.. Good news is that seven guys walked out of the theater upright after hours of fun and numerous bathroom trips for all... The goal was achieved.. we dined in a room of kings.. seriously.. it looked like something out of a Henry 8th period movie... giant mirrors on all walls, waiters everywhere, complete with skewers of sizzling delights and an array of vegetables and desserts that will bring you to your knees..

We had a great time, enjoyed each others company "in community" and didn't break any major rules as far as we know. We focused on who we believe in.. and talked a lot about what we believe.. and what others believe for that matter.. From Iraq to Buddha... We all agreed that what goes on at meat night stays at meat night.. so unfortunately we are bound by a "medium rare" blood oath and cannot divulge details further.

Sources inform me that several of the ladies and kids gathered and enjoyed a "meatless" pizza party... I have to ask why one would buy pizza without meat.. and at the same time I say "welcome all to my world." since I hear Tracee did the ordering ;-)

We humbly and gently thank our beautiful, loving wives and children for allowing us this "rare" indulgence of time and family funds. We have some very nice plans in the works to show our adoration.

For all of you that couldn't come out last night. We thought of you, missed you, and then moved on as we understand that the world is a tough place... Alas, we will endeavor for another time in the years, maybe many years to come.. where we can join in the festivities of "meatness"...

Thanks for the time guys.. I loved it.
