Topic: Grand Reopening of the "Crushed Velvet Lounge

[Dingo1]

Dingo walks over to the jutebox, and unplugs it.  He activates a console that emerges.  Typing in several commands, the dancefloor becomes Zero-g.  Seals and straws appear on every glass.  The lights dim, and dancelighting flashes into being.  A stage desends, and a special live band is beamed onto it....

"This is the group 'Enigma'.....dance music for your pleasure.

Dance Music only heard in the most exclusive clubs in Europe is played....Everyone is compelled to follow the beat!!

[sunspots4ever]

   Haven't had a tournament to work off any energy lately... Pete may be in for a long, energetic tango...   ::)   Set him up some oxygen and a round of his favorite beverage, just in case...

[greenleaf1]

Oooo Enigma!  Excellent!
**grabs a Red Bull and Vodka from the bar and trots off to the dance floor**

OK, quit laughing people, I never said I actually could dance  ::)

[Sarah90]

 Greenleaf:

   Reminds me of karate camp last summer. We had a band there on Saturday night, and EVERYONE was dancing, some better than others. (And just because the Black Belts could do martial arts didn't mean they were as coordinated on the dance floor!) I told my Sensei that now that all these people had seen me dance, my katas would HAVE to look better to them! At least in katas I have an inkling of what I am doing! (And sure enough, I placed in my next kata competition!)

[greenleaf1]

;D
I can just picture it Sunny!  In fact I'm trying to picture my old Tai Kwon Do instructor dancing - not a real pretty picture  ;D

And "way to go" on placing in katas, that's hard work!

I'll take that rum today Sarah, m'dear.  I needed the Red Bull yesterday  just to stay awake!

[payloadcontroller]

Hows about a double 'Lectric Lemonade! Right this way!

Kay, you ARE coming out onto the dance floor, baby. C'mon.

See? It's micro-g. You can do this!

Whoa! Just what he needed, Dingy! Thanx! *gettin down with Kay*

(runs on stage in meat coat, here's booing)

Bleah, hush up, it looks good on me. :p

(pulls out a paper)

And now for a political statement from the Nem camp.

(see's a load of this:  ::))

Shush.

Since politicians need a catch phrase that fits them so here's mine in a commerical.

(Screen changes to a view of the Earth with deep voice narrator)

Earth, people say one day it's going to be destroyed by Man's stupidity...

(screen changes to Nem, half cyborg wearing a meat jacket with whit/green shirt, tan pants, looking into the sky with his hands on his hips)

But one man is giving his all to help make sure that that doesn't happen in our life time. With his,"Death to those who disagree" and,"Death to those who can't understand price tags", Nemisis Two is making the world a better place.

Nemisis two, if elected,"The world won't end in his term*".

(Small print at bottom says,"*Exception: Unless it has to do with a bad pun relating to the destruction of the world")

(Nem runs off stage)

*limping in*

Oy. Gimme about a pitcher of Sirian Iced Tea, please. And a handful of Advil.

One of my best friends and I went for a horseback ride on the reservation, in the National Forest near here, yesterday. I brought up my 2 girls and tacked them up.

Unfortunately, one of 'em, being thoroughbred, got antsy and restless, and stomped my foot across the instep. Hurt so bad I thought I was gonna hurl. Came close a couple times.

We went riding anyway. Gorgeous ride.

Getting my boot off when I got home was...interesting.

This morning I went to the chiropractor, who decided to x-ray.

Yep, it's broken. :-\

[sunspots4ever]

Can you still dance with a broken foot in Zero-G?

[payloadcontroller]

In zero-g, yeah, but not otherwise.

Fortunately the site nurse has been a sweetie and given me a temporary handicapped placard for my starcruiser.

[ottawan]

Sorry to hear about that PLC!

Hope you recover quickly.

As is often said up here in the GWN, $hit happens!

Take care.

[nemisis_two]

(runs back on stage)

And now, my platform:

(Groans are heard)

The spreading of deadly diseases because even with our best efforts, still, only the richest one percent get the worst diseases. We need disease reform, we need curiors, we need more infections.

With my election, I will ensure all people get all the disease they deserve. Vote for Nemisis Two.

(Runs off stage)

Sorry to hear about your foot PLC, don't have to clog dance now though, hehe.

[Dingo1]

PLC, the z-gee dancefloor will help you keep off your feet.  just set your globe to hover.

Nemisis, you need someone to run against you:  So I announce that I will run for the office of presidency of the world.

As the DNBP canidate, I promise to follow my party's platform in everyway.

If your country is experiencing war, then DNBP and your enemies will stop then DNBP

Experiencing personnel problems and need to get away from it, then DNBP.

If you need to relax the Do Nothing But Party!!!!

[payloadcontroller]

Done, Dingy. Thanx. C'mon, Kay, there's enough room on this globe for two. We can float around and talk about the other dancers hehehe.


You got my vote, Dingo-dog!

Hey, how's the pup doing?
