So, the Lash's are planning on going to the RHPS on the Queen Mary in Long Beach on Saturday, March 31st. I thought it would be a great time to have a little off-property cocktail party in their honor. So, were going to shake up some Side Cars and put together a moderate spread and you're invited to join us at our house:

Saturday, March 31st
7:00 pm
Hotel Swank and Martini Bar
Long Beach

Please RSVP here.

Could this be considered the March Swanking?? :cool:










(Even though the Beat Film Fest seems the perfect Swanking, I didn't have the guts to decree two Swankings in a row at the Egyptian Theater in Hollywood.)

Declaring it a swanking puts a lot of pressure on me to come up with decent food. ;)

No sweat NA, I could bring a costco sized box of those cocktail weiners. **** don't get fancier than that.

So. What is an RHPS? I think my grandfater had one of those procedures after his arteries were deemed to be fully clogged.

When is the departure for RHPS. We wouldn't be able to make it AT 7 so wondering how late is too late. Don't know if we're going to go to the show (are we allowed to decide last minute, or do we need to RSVP early to reserve tickets?).

Has anyone been to RHPS since it moved to the QM?

Curious to how it is set up.

We should be at the show but not sure about before. What time is the departure for the show? Before it moved one had to get there about 10:30 or so. Not sure anymore.

I'll go tentative on the whole thing, but if I'm ABLE to go (read: if I somehow have vehicular transportation, which is looking doubtful given the state of my car), then I could probably also get Nephy.

Neph: get my digits from T&K and let's stay in touch. But I'll have no idea till the weekend arrives, because I have no idea what in the h-e-double hockey sticks I'm going to do about my damn car.

Count me and Susan in as definite probabilities for Cocktails, defintely no for RHPS.

Yes, but I had to get out of lazy mode.

I added a poll. If you are a maybe, choose yes. I need reasonable food and drink count. I'm not sure your choice about RHPS matter until that evening, so that isn't included in the poll.

I've been up for about 2 hours, fed the kitties and took the doggies out for a walk - I don't know where all this energy is coming from, but I likes it :D

Sounds like I missed a good one. Damn show business. :(

Not to mention, Matthew has strep throat so y'all probably didn't want to cozy up to him right now anyway.

Great! Since there was a pre-meet cocktail party, how appropriate was the image?

I'll be wearing mine when you're back up North.

Yay! I've finally hung out with Lash enough that his posts have an Aussie accent in my head! :D

That was one hell of a party. Mr. Meinke's very stiff drinks made for good times.

It was strange leaving so "early". It was strange enough not packing an overnight bag, "just in case" ;)

Oh, and sadly, there were very few pictures taken. I myself got exactly two photos. One is of Scoundrel actually being nice, and the other is of Commodore Swank wearing a cheese fez.

Not really representative of the night's festivities.

Now that I think of it - it seemed like a LOT of people were there, but there were a lot of people that didn't make it. Our group of seriously cool people has gotten wonderfully large. :)

Did someone say photos? I managed to take a few. Not as great as I would have liked, but I was sitting down when I took some of them, so I sorta worked with what I had:

I suppose I would have.

It's difficult to make it to Long Beach for cocktails when one lives in Florida, however.

We had a great time. It was very hard to leave so early but other friends were waiting.

I saw the rare occurrence of Allister and Buster on the same bed at the same time. And what is up with Scoundrel? He was so well behaved.

I'm with Kevin - we need to find a way to keep Rob and Greg here. Permanently.

Thanks again NA and EM for hosting the Lashbear cocktail bash... It was great meeting the gang and putting faces to the online handles... Great party and loved the Designated Driver mocktails...
