Subject: I am throwing myself a party

 

Hi there George,

 

I have decided to throw a party on Saturday.  The theme of the party will be

"me".  Could you please pass along the following message?

 

Thank you,

Big XII Championship Football / Mike’s 30th Birthday Barbeque Bowl Bash

 

Hi all, sorry for the late notice, but I haven’t exactly been looking

forward to this day.  Nonetheless, here it is.  I turn 30 on Saturday.  Who

decided that?  It’s preposterous.

 

Like planets coming into alignment, it just so happens that Mizzou is going

to be playing in the Big XII Championship game that very evening.  They are

currently ranked #1 in the nation – that hasn’t happened since Pocahontas

stormed the Bastille, I think.  If they win, they get to go to the national

championship in January.  Talk about once in a blue moon…

 

Anyway, in honor of the day’s events I am going to throw a:

 

little party at Chez Mike, 2408 Hayes Avenue

Saturday, December 1, 7pm – close

 

I will grill up some meat and kebabs, supply lots of beer and pop and cake,

and holler obscenities at the tee-vee.  Ping pong will be available in the

garage and drums are in the basement.  You will be entertained, or my name

isn’t Harry Crabtree.

 

Grill lights at 6:30pm, kickoff is at 7pm.  Plan on around 7:30pm for main

course grill items, but certainly appetizers will be ready prior to that. 

Cake and ice cream at halftime.

 

If you’d like to swing by, please let me know soon so I can plan for

numbers.  No need to bring anything – we’ll have plenty of food.  Everyone

is welcome.

 

Please let me know if you have any questions.  Hope to see you there!

PS: Wear nice socks, because my house is a “no-shoes” zone.  This stems from

my childhood in Missouri, where nobody owned shoes.  The dirt floors made it

easy on the feet though.

It was the pants that gave him strength.
