New Years

Gimme a call and let me know when everyone plans on heading down to the Queen City. Also, just a reminder, I live in a 1-bedroom apartment so there's not a ton of room. Avery does have a house, so that is an option, but we have to see how many people are actually coming down to see how much room he will have. Also let me know if you have any specific requests or desires regarding the festivities and I'll see how many of them I can ignore. Thanks!

Also, check this out if you're bored....

Plans for New Years???

I hope everyone had a delightful Christmas and Santa brought you everything you wanted. Most of us are now officially old after receiving dishes, silverware, vacuums, and work clothes all of which I believe everyone actually needed. But our next holiday will be here before you know it and unfortunately the Elders were unable to officially sponsor a celebration. Rumors running through the grapevine suggest a lot of familiar faces will be in Charlotte, NC. If anyone else has any exciting plans please feel free to comment or if any has any suggestions on places to go while down there please comment. A large majority of people will be there Friday, Dec 30th as well. However, due to the early NC State game the following day we will need to be in early so the partying will curtail around roughly 3 A.M. Come join us!!

Things to look forward to in 2006......

Canadia

I used to think Canadia was good for nothing. I have changed my mind based on these issues. (minus the gay bath houses - not much for those)

Second, If you guys want to come to my new house on Xmas eve to watch some Panthers and Cowboys and other games, I'll be watching them in the comfort of my new basement equipped with big screen, directv NFl game plan, and Tivo. Holler at me if you want to join. ASU NATIONAL CHAMPS!! Merry Xmas

Adam and Eve

BJ you made this happen

Classic

The wife comes home early & finds her husband in their master bedroom making love to a beautiful, sexy young lady!

"You unfaithful, disrespectful pig! What are you doing? How dare you do this to me, the faithful wife, the mother of your children! I'm leaving this house, I want a divorce!"

The husband, replies "Wait, Wait a minute! Before you leave, at least listen to what happened".

"Hmm, I don't know, well, it'll be the last thing I will hear from you. But make it fast, you unfaithful pig, you!"

The husband begins to tell his story . . "While driving home this young lady asked for a ride. I saw her so defenseless that I went ahead and allowed her in my car. I noticed that she was very thin, not well dressed and very dirty. She mentioned that she had not eaten for 3 days. With great compassion I brought her home and warmed up the enchiladas that I made for you last night that you wouldn't eat because you're afraid you'll gain weight; the poor little thing practically devoured them."

"Since she was very dirty I asked if she wanted to take a shower. While she was showering, I noticed her clothes were dirty and full of holes so I threw her clothes away. Since she needed clothes, I gave her the pair of jeans that you have had for a few years, that you can no longer wear because they are too tight on you, I also gave her the blouse that I gave you on our anniversary and you don't wear because I don't have good taste." "I gave her the pullover that my sister gave you for Christmas that you will not wear just to bother my sister and I also gave her the boots that you bought at the expensive boutique that you never wore again after you saw your co-worker wearing the same pair."

The husband continues his story . . . .
"The young woman was very grateful to me and I walked her to the door. When we got to the door she turned around and with tears coming out of her eyes, she asks me: "Sir, do you have anything else that your wife doesn't use?"

Thanks and Sorry

First of all, I want to congratulate the greatest football program in North Carolina, the Appalachian State Mountaineers, for their triumphant victory in the I-AA National Championship!!(If you want proof, email me at gc57171@appstate.edu for facts and details :) )For all you low country folks, good luck in the future. Second, I want to thank all of the elders for putting on a great party. It was by far some of the most fun I have had. Even though I appeared for only about 20 minutes, I heard Drunk Uncle Bob stole the show. I thought I would invite him to entertain the people but I heard about his pissing incident. I would like to truly apologize for his actions. I have recently emitted Bob into rehab for his drinking habits and his chronic pissing episodes. He said he is willing to donate a Xmas tree for the next Ye Olde.Also, he has donated some of his gambling winnings to numerous foundations that support people with kidney problems. He truly is a class act. Can't wait for the next Ye Olde. Hopefully I will achieve a lifetime goal of being an elder!

Regards,
Garrett and Drunk Uncle Bob

Southern Driving Habits

The National Transportation Safety Board recently divulged they had "covertly" funded a project with the U.S. automakers for the past 5 years, whereby the automakers were installing black-box voice recorders in 4-wheel drive pickup trucks and SUV's in an effort to determine in fatal accidents, the circumstances in the last 15 seconds before the crash.... They were surprised to find in 38 of the 50 states the recorded last words of drivers in 61.2 percent of fatal crashes were, "Oh Shit!" Only the states of North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Kentucky, Arkansas, Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana and Texas were different, where 89.3 percent of the final words were: "Hold my beer, I'm gonna try somethin."

Who has the next round???

Tired of the same drinks night after night?? 25 cent draft, martinis, well drinks?? Next time order one of these unique alternatives to the traditional cocktail.

It's the Best Time of the Year!!!

Elder Marble checkin' in. Hope everyone is doing well and has all their Christmas shopping taken care of. First of all, I would like to thank Elder Kubis for recognizing the achievements of fellow Elders this past week. Second, I would like to thank everyone that attended the 3rd Annual Ye Olde Christmas Party. It was definitely one for the ages. I know I thoroughly enjoyed myself!!! However, I did leave my door prizes in Chapel Thrill, so I'll need those back. Anyway. I know everyone loves this time of year and looks forward to time with cherished friends and family. I just want to wish everyone a Happy Holidays--no matter what you call it!!!!!

Exciting Weekend

Lots going on this weekend as two of our cherished elders, Eric Hoffman and Colten Marble, take the leap into the so-called "real world". Eric will be graduating from UNC while Colten will be graduating from NC State. Both graduated magna cum laude and at the top of their classes. Future plans are unknown for Eric but one of this three degrees was in Library Science so we can only assume he is looking to the field of librarianism. Colten will continue to dominate in his field of recreation specialist. Past results have shown he performing at the top of his game (some say he has the talent to rival the most respected in the field, Daniel Vaught).
In other news, up and coming elder, Garrett Carter (a.k.a. Drunk Uncle Bob, a.k.a. Tree Pisser) and his Appalachian State Mountaineers contend for the Div I AAAAA State Title. This is the same die hard fan who drove to LSU and back in a weekend just to see them play. Good Luck. Rumor on the street is that he has not taken off or washed his famed jersey in weeks.
Unrelated to the elders, we would like to welcome back to the US of A Sarah Zimmerman. We were originally very excited to have her graduate (and on time) but even more suprised she has made it back to Chapel Thrill and having no major incidents during her 6 month stint in Europa. (she even survived Amsterdam). Welcome Home.
We are also welcoming home someone very dear to us elders, Claire "cracky" Dorrier. She has also been out of the states for the past semester. Claire resided in Sydney, Australia and is currently looking for a place to live for the next semester. If anyone has extra room on their couch or knows of someone that does Claire would be willing to bargin. A VERY big event has happened in Claire's life while she was gone. No, she did not get married. YES she is finally of legal age. This means no more sneaking her into bars or worrying about her ID being taken or even having to buy her beer. Congrats Claire!! Keep on truckin!

More seldom known facts about Chuck Norris

1. The chief export of Chuck Norris is pain.

2. Chuck Norris sold his soul to the devil for his rugged good looks and unparalleled martial arts ability. Shortly after the transaction was finalized, Chuck roundhouse kicked the devil in the face and took his soul back. The devil, who appreciates irony, couldn't stay mad and admitted he should have seen it coming. They now play poker every second Wednesday of the month.

3. Chuck Norris does not hunt because the word hunting infers the probability of failure. Chuck Norris goes killing.

4. Bullets dodge Chuck Norris.

5. Filming on location for Walker: Texas Ranger, Chuck Norris brought a stillborn baby lamb back to life by giving it a prolonged beard rub. Shortly after the farm animal sprang back to life and a crowd had gathered, Chuck Norris roundhouse kicked the animal, breaking its neck, to remind the crew once more that Chuck giveth, and the good Chuck, he taketh away.

6. Chuck Norris is not hung like a horse... horses are hung like Chuck Norris

7. Chuck Norris doesnt shave; he kicks himself in the face. The only thing that can cut Chuck Norris is Chuck Norris.

No dying in this town

Thanks to all that came out

I would like to thank everyone that was able to make it the 3rd Annual Ye Olde. You are the ones that made it a complete success. If you could not make it this year, we look forward to having you at future gatherings. As a recently inducted elder I was very excited about this years fiesta. We came up with a few new things this year which I hope everyone enjoyed. Look for more new things to come in future parties and remember to check back here regularly to find out about updates. Rumors are running around about the Ye Olde F.o.J. Be excited!! Also feel free to post and put your pictures up or a link to your pictures elsewhere.
