Party at my house tomorrow night! You're invited.

[saltpoint]

That's right -- you are invited. But you have to help me make up the invitation list.

I've jotted a few names down already -- these are the people who are DEFINITELY coming:

Beverly Sills
Marilyn Manson
Kate Winslet
Rufus Wainwright
Al Sharpton
MoDo
Cat Stevens
JoAnne, of JoAnne's Fabrics
Marlin Perkins' accountant
Pee Wee Herman
Margaret Trudeau
Carol Channing
David Bowie

I'm counting on you people to fill out the roster and make this party rock.

Tell me who you're bringing to the party with you so I know just how much beer to put on ice.

And don't give me any bullshit about "we need electoral reform first or none of this matters."

If ya can't party, git outta the way so people who CAN party can PARTY.

[iconoclastic cat]

1. Can't go---date with the wife!

[saltpoint]

2. Understandable --

-- but then send an emissary!

[DeposeTheBoyKing]

3. Can't come - picking up hubby at the airport!

But we'll try to come. We'll bring with us:

Morrissey
Howard Zinn
Tariq Ali
Amy Goodman
Bruce Hornsby
Barbara Boxer
Joe Conason
Brad Pitt (without Jen, naturally)
and Elizabeth Edwards

[saltpoint]

4. Great. Make sure you both make it --

-- and that list will do just fine for extras.

I'm tellin' ya, we got plenty of booze.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

5. I'll bring Ron Jeremy

ya gotta have someone to work the video camera thingy

[KitchenWitch]

6. ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

if *he's* there, I am not!

I totally puke at the sight of Ron Jeremy.

:puke:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

9. Oh so do I

but can you imagine the great conversational piece he'd be :evilgrin:

[MidwestTransplant]

13. Take it easy on the Ron Jeremy bashing....

I hear he posts on the board under the name Matcom or something like that! ;)

[KitchenWitch]

14. Oops

Is that for real?

[MidwestTransplant]

20. Totally kidding!

Matcom is known for sex threads so I just thought some would find that was funny.

[KitchenWitch]

26. Ok you got me

Didn't know I needed my "Gullibility Alarm" armed here LOL

[saltpoint]

7. OMG, Ron Jeremy.

Ok -- but just don't tell the neighbors. I think they're evangelical Lutherans or something...

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

10. then no doubt they are familiar with him

that's why you always have to go fishing with 2 fundamentalists...if you only bring one, they'll drink all your booze.

[saltpoint]

11. LOL!

[LeftyMom]

8. If Joann is there, I'll be there

and I'll bring money. :)

[saltpoint]

12. Well, you BET JoAnne will be there.

I mean, when have we ever known JoAnne to forestall a party?

[GoddessOfGuinness]

15. I just read that Beverly is leaving the Met...

to spend more time with family. She's been in poor health recently. I'm kind of worried about her...

[saltpoint]

16. Oh hell. I didn't know that. She has always seemed --

-- so invincible. I can't imagine her sick.

I hope she bounds back and continues being a major presence. In a lot of ways, she's a living legend.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

22. She's a true goddess...

She saved the Saturday Met broadcasts.

[saltpoint]

23. Yes, she did. And then some.

I have never met anyone who followed serious vocal music to utter one negative thing about her.

It's the talent and also the way she has with people.

[driver8]

17. I'll bring my girlfriend -- Charisma Carpenter. n/t

[saltpoint]

18. Ok. As I said, the beer will be COLD.

Listen -- Marv Levy needs a ride. Can you guys swing by and pick him up?

[driver8]

24. Of course! Marv is an old friend... n/t

[AngryAmish]

19. Iggy Stooge

[saltpoint]

21. Iggy is just alright with me.

I don't think my grandmother, god rest her soul, wold have liked Iggy.

But then again, my grandmother won't be at this party.

Bring it on.

[saltpoint]

25. OK, everyone. Here's a quick update.

Howell Heflin WILL be there after all, but he'll be a little late. It's his bowling night.

And Anna Nicole Smith said she will only show up if Strom Thurmond will be there. I didn't have the heart to tell her the man was DEAD.

Any suggestions?

[SmileyBoy]

27. I'll bring my good friend Ziggy Marley.

I also called Chris Cornell, and I think he'll be able to make it.

[driver8]

28. Have Ziggy bring his sisters...

They are pretty cute and man, can they sing!!
