[ Edited by: telescopes 2009-08-18 20:21 ] Ok, I was one of the "self important" individuals who "cut" in line at the "Lemoncello Lounge"(it's Limoncello, by the way) with Bamboo Ben and my wife to get the last of the decorations put up that Ben had. My wife said she was sorry to the people who were bitching about it on the way in, but I myself am NOT sorry at all. I'm a vendor and the ONLY commercial carver doing a demonstration all weekend long and I don't have the time to enjoy anything at all, let alone wait in line for a shotglass that I don't even want when I'm trying to get things done. Some of us who are there are there to work and sacrifice our good times to enhance yours because that's what we enjoy. Do you want to know what it's like to put on a 16 hour demonstration while you're on vacation? I tolly enjoy it, but am totally beat afterwards. Just something to think about instead of getting an ulcer, wondering if they'll run out of mugs before you get one. If you didn't, I'll send you mine, even though I missed 90 percent of Oasis.....and just missed an episode of King of the Hill, typing this up. And by the way, didn't get "drunk" until everyone else was passed out and just before bed. I find it hard to enjoy my libations in tight proximity with so many unfamiliar people. Gotta make sure my sense of humor dosen't upset anyone, you know? Just another sacrifice. Is there anything else I can do for you?

If only you were who I was referring to. And yes your group apologized, and no, you were not the ones referred to in my post. Everyone knew you were a part of the help. Your only self-importance is thinking everything written must be about you and correcting the spelling of others. By the way, check your own spelling: tolly and dosen't - are these new words?
