*strolls in wearing full EV suit, lowers visor, extracts burger from pocket with gloved hand*

Stand back everyone.

*puts burger into Succ-U-bus*

That should keep it quiet -- a BB special, burnt on the outside, still frozen within.

*raises visor*

Sorry about the sand on the carpet. It gets everywhere.

*leaves*

Good thinking on offering it beef...l think giving it poultry will only whet its appetite for..ah...for things avian, Peregrin...

*happily slips back into crisp-induced euphoria*

....mmmm....salt and vinegar....heaven in a blue foilwrap packet...

*excitedly slip in, being very proud to have recieved an invitaion but sad to have missed the dinner.*
Well it looks like you got that publicity Chrome! From what I read in the post, at least, it sounds like you were a top busy forum for quite a bit... knew you would do it!

To bad I missed the fasion show, I could have made some great stuff for it over at my clothing shop in the space centre

Oh well, maybe next time.
*pulls out a bottle of champane and pours a glass tfor all prestent*
A toast! To the Celery/Webjello Campain and to L'Hotel Chrome!!

Hello, Lintilla!

A toast, indeed.

(is it safe to mix alcohol and chips?)

*Not seeing a problem with the alcohol/chips combo, drinks to the toast*

oh,god...a weeks wort of backlog.......


Where can I heat this up? *holds up bag of microwave popcorn*

Yeah, it's amazing how busy this party has continued to be -- even after it 'ended'!

Oh well, not to worry... according to Jim Lynn, we can have up to 2,147,483,648 posts in a thread before it crashes. And we haven't even reached 1,000 yet

*waiter carefully takes Kumabear's bag of microwave popcorn back to the kitchen, opens the bag, removes the popcorn, painstakingly cleans off the cheap oil from the corn, cooks up the popcorn in a pan with high quality oils, carefully puts the freshly popped popcorn back in the bag and delivers it to Kumabear*

Hmmm... they're fairly particular about food quality here. Might be easier just to ask them for some popcorn.

*puzzled*

Amy, was that EV as in extra-vehicular?

Lintilla, sorry you couldn't make it to the "proper" party. But you've given me an idea to have a fashion show at the atelier, after the campaign. We can show our creations off on the veranda, wear them ourselves, give them to other researchers to wear at the show and/or display them in the gallery. I have plenty of guest rooms for people to change outfits if they want to bring a whole rack of clothes!

The atelier would make a perfect setting!

*helps herself to some scraps out food that still look slightly palatable.*

I'd mind out of that dip with the algae on it - I think it's glowing.

No, Lil. EV=environmental in this case.

Glowing algae on the dip? Cool! Must be the dip DD brought. Hope everyone that ate it is Ok.

Say, mind if I take that back to the lab? Might come in useful for something.

Pierrot: Aaaaaawwwwk, DD always was a bit dippy

*Leaves with the dip and heads to CLI. Returns a while later.*

wonderful, the food i'm eating is being taken away to science labs!!!

*goes over and speaks to a waiter*

Lintilla and everyone, the wait staff tell me that even though Chrome went away on holiday he made sure that there were plenty of provisions on hand in the event that the party continues. Anything that was named on any of the menus at this banquet is still available.

If you're going to eat here, Lintilla, I'll gladly join you because the chef is fabulous!

That's good enough for me. Waiter, can I have Prime Rib of Chef please?

Did Peregrin suggest this menu?

I'd always thought those little chef's hats on food were for decoration as well. I guess they just shrink during cooking?

Ohhh so many choices!!!! Thank you for the invitation lil.

Hmm, how about a surprise, whatever the chef makes best!! I just cant decide!

Wumbeevil: LOL! I'll never look at a crown roast the same way again.

I've been doing so much headwork that my brain wants me to eat lots of proteins and carbohydrates. I see a slice of cheesecake with fresh strawberries in my future.

mmmmmm.... cheesecake.....

*Peregrin starts drooling*

I suppose there's not much hope of a nice jelly to accompany it, is there.

*looking in on banquet room*
hehheh heh
You can't tell an old joke too many times!

Lintilla. Backpack works good! I like how it fastens quick.
Ant Lady, that outfit is not very feminine, sorry.

*scampers out to patrol rest of hotel*
