Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Tom Taylor <gun.slick@juno.com Shaker's Restaurant in Glendale 11:00 AM, Thursday, July 28th We'll eat first and go from there to the museum. I'll post the address soon. CONTACT ME FOR MORE INFORMATION. Okay, children, here's a heads-up for a one-of-a-kind event. You have just over THREE WEEKS to plan for this, get time off or notes from your doctor, figure out what to wear, shine your shoes and/or boots, fill the tank and get money from the ATM, or whatever else you need to do. I can't say if we'll ever do this again, but it may become an annual event...or be the first of many annual events. It depends on what kind of response we get. Some of you will be two or more hours away by car. Not an excuse. Leave early. Some of you still have to work for a living. Not an excuse. Plan ahead and get the time off. Some of you might be short of cash. Not an excuse. Borrow from a friend or sell an organ. Some of you may be too lazy to make the effort. Not an excuse. Suck it and show up. School's out so bring the family. Bring neighbors and friends. Pass the word to anyone you think might be interested. I'd like to have a rough count of who is coming by the 25th of July. Don't let us down on this one, folks. You'll have a ball. Jittery Jim can have a whole sash full of them. Tom "Forty Rod" Taylor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He woulda never knowd I was palnnin on playin hookey for the day. I coulda even hidden my cowboy clothes in the trunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 Okay, time's running out. Less than a week and I'm going to be needing some numbers to tell the restaurant and the museum what to expect. So far I have 13 pretty much for sure and 2 more possibles. 1 more will join us at the Autry, but won't eat with us. Let me know. There's still room and time to get in on the greatest event since the berlin wall fell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 4 more on board. Who'll make it a score. C'mon, 3 more for 20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 If I had one wish for this year it would be to attend this event. Unfortunately Guns of August is coming up fast and Thye really like me making their stuff. You all have fun. Russ Got another fun event coming up on September 10th, a Saturday. You can make that one, and it'll get you out of the weather there.....and into the weather here. It's going to be at Tom Muley's and he's making his solar-system famous peach cobbler.

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted July 25, 2011 Author Share Posted July 25, 2011 A minor glitch: I called the restaurant for Thursday and found out we'll have to keep track of our own tabs. They WON'T give us individual checks. If I had found that out earlier I would have found a different place to eat. Next time someone remember to check or remind me to check. Thanks.

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 Problem is that sometimes we end up short and someone has to make it up out of their own pocket. Makes for hard feelings and crappy tips. I try very hard to avoid the issue by making sure in advance that we can get individual checks. I'd be mighty put out if the GLB broke up over something like this, or even if one person fell out because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
