Hey Austin folks, and others so inclined, how about I throw a NYE party?
Anyone interested in avoiding all the amateur drunk drivers and hanging out at my place NYE. I have some booze, I can get some food, and there's plenty of room for those that need to sleep it all off.

Whaddya think? Anyone interested?

1. Sounds interesting.

I can no longer drink, but if I could I would much rather attend your party than most of the bigger Austin NYE parties I've seen.

Good luck with that. What a gesture! Whataguy!

***Happy New Year***

7. Y'all have fun!
We're going to the Rose Bowl -- flying into Burbank Friday morning, going to Universal Studios for a special Longhorn Bash, then the parade followed by the Texas Exes Tailgate Party and then the game. Headed back Sunday morning, exhausted, I'm sure, and also happy about a win, I hope!

Happy New Year!

8. Hey, thanks Longhorn!
Thanks to you, my Aggies get to a better bowl and the BigXII makes more money! Woohoo! Enjoy your trip to LA!

We're still kicking your butts next year, though. :P

10. I like the idea of a themed party
Let's throw out some ideas. We brought up some at brunch today

The last nail in the 2004 coffin
We want Democracy like in the Ukraine
Don't blame me I voted, but my vote wasn't counted
Pin the steel spine on the Congressional Democrats
It can't get any worse, it can only get better

15. Wish I could make it
Us Ashlings will be having a bonfire (read "campfire") out here at the ranch. This is a "solstice" sort of thing we do, and should in no way be confused with an "A&M" sort of thing!

16. Enjoy your fire!
We'll catch up with you next time.

Oh...by the way...I noticed the agency where your wife works has some openings. Should I bother? I need a change of pace, badly!

21. A crack pot with a crock pot
A mighty dangerous combination; damn right lethal in Texas. Step away from the crock pot. Put the crock pot down slowly.

Hey at least we're not talking crack pipes, because those of course would make you a crack head.
:evilgrin:

Thanks for the crock pot Velma. It will keep the queso warm and yummy.
