Hey DawnTiki, that link is just a general link, not to your pictures specifically, so double-check it and fix the link here! I can provide a little bit of insight into the Dance Party Debacle... because I do know the background story. Last year, she (Kari) shared a room at Oasis with DJ Cali Kid, and the Millionaire from Combustible Edison. It was on the same side and the same floor as 135, but down by La Casita. Anyway, it was quite the raging dance party-- and the three of them took turns DJing. I hung out there for a bit and it was really fun. Not to mention the fact that between the three of them, they had a mind-blowing playlist. Because they were occupied in that room, and for whatever other reason as well (I don't think any of them are here on TC), they were not aware of the happenings in 135, and also not aware of its mystic aura. So this year, there was no such room for them. The Millionaire couldn't make it to Oasis; I'm not sure where DJ Cali Kid was staying; and Kari was staying elsewhere. She wanted to have a similar dance party this year, so she made some CD's accordingly. As was mentioned here, she first tried this in the Z's room. It was a tad... awkward, as she did indeed interrupt Iuka etc. Getting no warm reception there, she took the CD down to 135. Not knowing of the special cachet that 135 has, she basically derailed things. I agree with VintageGirl's thoughts-- it's quite thoughtless to try to do that. (Come in and take over a party.) After basically getting driven out of 135, she (Kari) went back to the Z's, and told me what happened. (I don't think she appreciated the fact that I laughed, but whatever.) She said that the lesson she had learned was to make sure she had her own room at Caliente Tropics next year so that she could have her dance party. More thoughts on other stuff later, I'm still catching my breath. When I catch my breath, I'm going to use it to play a melodica!!! mig |
