Alex, are you suggesting that we join forces, so to speak? I think that I should sit back and weigh my options see who truly is the victim and who is the prey, who is righteous and who is foe...who will buy me the most drinks? Loyalty sure has its price!

Alex, I'd like to call a truce with you. It looks like jdads is playing us against each other now in order to get free drinks. I won't play a part in that! If anything, I think jdads2 should be buying us drinks

All joking aside, I'm glad to hear that Alex is going to be gracing us with his presence at Jellyrolls. It will make the night that much more fun. Now if I can only come up with a reason to get Ray to drag Alex onstage to sing "I'll Always Remember when you dressed like a woman for me" to the tune of the Billy Joel song "Always a Woman."

I SHOULD BE BUYING DRINKS??
I should be buying drinks?
I should be buying drinks.
I SHOULD be buying drinks!
I SHOULD BE BUYING DRINKS!!

See I convinced myself...apparently, not only can I be bought, I can also be easily confused!

Now, you just have to change the "I should be buying drinks" to "I will be buying Karen and Alex drinks" and we'll be all set.

Yes, it did start out so innocently. All's I want to do is go to Jellyrolls with a bunch of people, sing a long really badly with the piano guys, and dance to the Unicorn Song.

[jdads2]

It looks like you're going to get your wish! Seems like there are going to be quite a few of us there!

Now, about wanting to sing badly...You have heard stories about my "wonderful" singing voice?

My DW and I have a question about the Unicorn song, what is it? I don't know if I mentioned this earlier but this will be our first visit to Jellyrolls so we don't really know what to expect.

"The Unicorn Song" is a song by the Irish Rovers. It's one of those songs that most people seem to know, but can't always figure out how they know it. At Jellyrolls, they make every stand up, and do a little dance to it. The dance is lead by "the hardest working wait staff." It's one of those things they do every night.

Here are the lyrics:

The Unicorn Song - The Irish Rovers


A long time ago, when the Earth was green
There was more kinds of animals than you've ever seen
They'd run around free while the Earth was being born
And the loveliest of all was the unicorn

There was green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty backed camels and some chimpanzees
Some cats and rats and elephants, but sure as you're born
The loveliest of all was the unicorn

The Lord seen some sinning and it gave Him pain
And He says, "Stand back, I'm going to make it rain"
He says, "Hey Noah, I'll tell you what to do
Build me a floating zoo
and take some of those

Green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty backed camels and some chimpanzees
Some cats and rats and elephants, but sure as you're born
Don't you forget My unicorns

Old Noah was there to answer the call
He finished up making the ark just as the rain started to fall
He marched the animals two by two
And he called out as they came through
Hey Lord

I've got green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty backed camels and some chimpanzees
Some cats and rats and elephants, but Lord, I'm so forlorn
I just can't find no unicorns"

And Noah looked out through the driving rain
Them unicorns were hiding, playing silly games
Kicking and splashing while the rain was falling
Oh, them silly unicorns

There was green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty backed camels and some chimpanzees
Noah cried, "Close the door because the rain is falling
And we just can't wait for no unicorns"

The ark started moving, it drifted with the tide
The unicorns looked up from the rocks and they cried
And the waters came down and sort of floated them away
That's why you never see unicorns to this very day

You'll see green alligators and long-necked geese
Some humpty backed camels and some chimpanzees
Some cats and rats and elephants, but sure as you're born
You're never gonna see no unicorns

The MOST important thing is to insert the "special" lyrics during "sweet caroline"

I heard about those lyrics, and I may have to respectfully decline to sing them. I wouldn't want to do anything to offend my beloved piano guys.

But I don't think that I will be on stage dragging Alex up there...lol. I think that it was Alex that had already tricked me into getting up on stage last year at the Hoo-Dee-Doo-Review...lol.

And Alex, why are you wishing that I get arrested...lol.

Sounds like a fun time, I'll be there!!

It'll be nice to see you again, Ray.

Now that I'm all excited about going to my very first DIS meet I may not be going...

To make a very aggrivating story short, my emplyoyer screwed up my scheduled vacation so I may not be able to get to WDW until the 8th. That is, if I get the vacation scheduled at all.

Hopefully all will work out, I should find out for sure right after all the flights have been booked!

That stinks! Hopefully you can work it out so that you can go as scheduled. Not fair. Not fair. Who's going to buy me and Alex drinks?

[TLinden16]

Ray and Snowwark--Glad to hear that you will be joining us as well! I'm so psyched for this meet. It will be fun to meet everyone, and spend a wild and crazy evening at one of my favorite places!

But you HAVE to be there!!

It sounds like half the fun will be watching you, Karen and Alex duke it out!

Just post your employer's phone number here. We'll have 55,000 of your closest friends give him a call and tell him to let you off!

 

[jdads2]

Thanks to TLinden16 for being so concerned and thirsty and to KathyTX for wanting to be entertained! If it were that easy I would gladly let you call! I had been out of work with a back injury for the last 2 months and just recently returned last weekend. Making a huge stink might not be the best way of coping with this problem.

Compounding the problem is not being at work to talk to those in "charge". I work an odd schedule and don't get back until Saturday when they have off. I should find out for sure next Monday or tuesday...then again since time is quickly flying by, I probably won't find out.

Well, we'll all be hoping that you can get the time off, and come join us on the 6th. If not, let me know, and I will send you my address so that you can send me money to pay for lots of drinks for me and Alex. I think about $200 should cover our bar tab for the evening
