It's a good thing we're going to have two TVs, between video games and movies :-?

I'm still open to bringing some MST3k with me, but since there's already so many people bringing things, maybe it's not necessary.

Yeah, and don't forget some of us will also be dancing and (um, probably) singing and eating and, you know, drawing... :wink:

We only have two televisions if someone brings one. We're renting one television for the cookout.

If I win, I get to taser you. :D
Hmm, perhaps I should practice.

Old TVs for the Cookout?

I might be able to help with that. I have two televisions - one's a small 13 inch and the other is an 18 inch. But they're somewhat old (think early to mid 1980s) and strictly no frills with their wonderous mono sound.

I'll bring one or both of the above tvs if we can't do any better. ;) Is there somewhere in the community center to place a television other than the floor?

An old TV might be an issue for hooking up a DVD player or a Gamecube to, but I have a signal adaptor I can bring to fix that.

Also, I've been told that people exchange sketches and stuff. Since I can't draw, the next best thing I can do would be to write little stories for everyone. Does that sound fair?

Hey, we could set up a network game. Then it'd be a ping-pong table.

...

Okay, I'll go away.

You can still see postcounts if you change the forum skin in your profile.

I'll be there midnight Friday so I can help with food. We could have like a blind taste test thingy! I could cook gumbo, but it takes like 6 hours to make the stuff.

You should give him a little pink shirt as revenge. Make him wear it over his head.
