Christmas party

[Gagh]

Dark Rum. Nice and spicy. White Rum is better for mixing.

Couldn't you guys have arranged a party at someone's apartment or gone for a meal or something? Having an online Xmas party sounds like something that'd happen in an Arrested Development/Curb type world.

I think I brought it up to one of the partners back at Thanksgiving, but there's only 10 of us in the whole company now, and the partners are very laid back. They probably wanted to spend all the money on bonuses rather than a party.

Given the state of things, I'll take the money.

Our Christmas bonus this year was not getting laid off.

Our Christmas bonus this year was not getting laid off until after Jan 1.

I had some eggnog/rum last night. Which reminds me, I need to take a poll on dark rum vs. white rum....next time I'm online. now back to the kitchen....

I have to go with neither.

I stand corrected. Got a message while taking the day off of work today that noone is being laid off after all.

 

[Dr Dave]

Good news everyone!

Dr Dave, do you not care for rum? What about eggnog?

 

[Tisiphone]

Mmmm. Rum.

 

[Gagh]

Haaharrrr and a bottle o' rum

Dr Dave, do you not care for rum? What about eggnog?

I do not like rum. Which stems from a college party, the best I can tell. Just the smell makes me less then happy.

I don't tend to like liquor much anyway. Although I enjoy vodka and scotch if I have it with soda or whatever.

Thing is, I don't recall ever having eggnog, but just not liking it (perhaps the smell or something). Although perhaps I had some as a kid and disliked it.

Is it true that the government only gives you 30 sweet, noggy days then takes it away again?

 

[Dr Dave]

Yes it is.

 

[CaptainWacky]

What happens if you try to drink egg nog in any of the other 11 months?

 

[Dr Dave]

They beat you with metal copies of the US Constitution.

LAND OF THE "FREE"!?!?

 

[Dr Dave]

Land of the ER visit!

If you are a member of one of the Secret Societies, they go easy on you and use a balsa wood relief of the Gettysburg Address instead.

But because it's a secret society, they never know until it's too late.
