On September 30, I want to organize an Antarctica Hatracker picnic.

Who's with me! This is great.

We can even meet the penguins.

Posted by Jon Boy (Member # 4284) on :

I am SO there.

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :

Great!

It's going to be fun. I'm bringing a zip line. [Smile]

Posted by Jon Boy (Member # 4284) on :

I'll bring the books and lighter fluid.

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :

The penquins? Is that a cross between Rooter and Danny DeVito?

Posted by zgator (Member # 3833) on :

Penguins

You're starting a cult, aren't you? [No No]

I'm paying for the zip line with Belle's money. [Smile]

I didn't see any mention of penquins in that link.

Are you spelling penguins wrong on purpose? 'Cause if you are, I'm totally not getting it.

Posted by zgator (Member # 3833) on :

I have no idea what you're talking about, Jon Boy. [Taunt]

You can bring the fry pan. *looks innocent*

Will there be swimming?

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :

Absolutely. You'll be wearing your usual outfit, I presume?

Posted by Frisco (Member # 3765) on :

Sure. Can we be twins?

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :

No, but the penguins will be.

Posted by Amka (Member # 690) on :

What else do we need?

Posted by Ryuko (Member # 5125) on :

I'm up for Antarctica. I was starting to miss blistering cold over the summer...

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :

Hmmm... someone want to volunteer for potato salad? We definitely need potato salad.

Posted by Kayla (Member # 2403) on :

Aw, man, and I wanted to bring cole slaw. Alright. I know you've heard about my potato salad, so I'll bring it. Well, I'll send it, anyway. The restraining order and Jon Boy, you know. [No No]

Posted by Jon Boy (Member # 4284) on :

That kiss was in violation of the restraining order. I'm calling the police.

And by the way, I'll bring my famous Jell-O© salad.

Posted by Frisco (Member # 3765) on :

You know, kat, that's the sort of thing I'd expect from such an...um...speciesist individual such as yourself.

I'll bet penguins don't think they all look alike.

I know I've looked at a penguin and said to myself, "Damn, that's a freaking HOT penguin."

You probably think all swans look alike, too! Or ants!

That said....I'll bring the ice.

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :

[Razz]

I meant a differnt double entendre. A triple entendre! A new record!

Posted by Amka (Member # 690) on :

No potato salad from me. Nope. No way.

I'll bring a CD player, and a CD of the Katharena. And lots of canadian nickels, because that is how our cult leader wants to be paid.

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :

Is this a barbeque?? Strictly BYOB? (Bring your own BEEF!)

Fine then. I'll bring the tailgate!

(Since Amka is bringing the cd player already!)

are you people making fun of me? Because Boston is far from arctic right now. just so's you know, it's about 85 degrees and 200% humidity right now.
[Razz]

Posted by mackillian (Member # 586) on :

STUPID HUMIDITY! [Wall Bash]

Posted by T_Smith (Member # 3734) on :

AOL Keyword Travel allows you to plan your trips, and book hotels, which would be perfect for you to save money and time when planning your trips to the Antartic.

Sorry, just got off work.

Posted by Bob_Scopatz (Member # 1227) on :

I may have a trip to Antarctica coming up soon. I hope it's during the picnic. I'll let you know.

Posted by Shan (Member # 4550) on :

Let's bring the kids and throw 'em in the water - maybe they'll float long enough and learn to swim? Does anyone have a few lifejackets? Or would that be too protective? [Razz]

Posted by aretee (Member # 1743) on :

If Narnia goes, I'm afraid I'll have to boycott because we all know that there are Lions, WITCHES, and clothes cabinents in a place bearing the same name. [No No]

I might be tempted into using witchcraft or sorcery by the mention of the name. Unless, of course, we're going to have a burning...

Posted by BannaOj (Member # 3206) on :

Yes, the killer whales are starving and SICK and TIRED of penguin.

AJ

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :

aretee, can I come if I promise to leave all that stuff at home? I just promised to bring the tailgate for crying out loud!! [Cry]

PS Bob, you kill me! [ROFL]

Posted by TheTick (Member # 2883) on :

Just poking my head in to tell aretee to be careful where you burn stuff in the Antarctic...make sure the ice is thick where you set up. [Wink]

Posted by Frisco (Member # 3765) on :

We really need to make this happen so Ralphie will quit gloating.

Posted by Ralphie (Member # 1565) on :

You may take my life, but you will never take my gloating.

Posted by Frisco (Member # 3765) on :

I bet I could. [Big Grin]

Or should I just tell all of Hatrack exactly what goes on at a Ralphie Picnic?!

Posted by Ralphie (Member # 1565) on :

You know, you could PRETEND you don't own me. It seriously throws off the sociological ecosystem around here.

You having so much power over me, well, it's just not fittin'.

Posted by Frisco (Member # 3765) on :

Good answer.

I think I have my first minion. [Big Grin]

Posted by Ralphie (Member # 1565) on :

[Grumble]

Posted by Dan_raven (Member # 3383) on :

WIth all the penguins there, I assume this will be formal attire?

Posted by katharina (Member # 827) on :

I packed my tiara, just in case.

*quails at the thought of Ralphie as Frisco's minion*

Posted by Frisco (Member # 3765) on :

You're next, after you behold the glory of my penguin suit.

Posted by celia60 (Member # 2039) on :

as long as you wear something, we'll be fine.

Kayla, I think that's COLD slaw in Antarctica...

(sorry)

Posted by Ralphie (Member # 1565) on :

I think we need a :rimshot: emoticon.

Posted by filetted (Member # 5048) on :

*brakes dog sled*

did someone say antarctica?

Posted by The Wiggin (Member # 5020) on :

I'm glad i sined in for the first time in a long time or i might have missed this picnic. I'll tell you waht ill bring the popsicle's. I mean you always need popsicles in the summer/fall to cool off.
*mental note find a panda fur tux to blend with the penguins.*

Posted by Kayla (Member # 2403) on :

You shouldn't be sinning just for the Antarctica picnic. We'll let you come, sin or no sin. Honest. [ROFL]

Posted by Erik Slaine (Member # 5583) on :

See what happens when you go on vacation!

Posted by Erik Slaine (Member # 5583) on :

Let's have another one this year!
