Hey folks! I've been lurking over at GFY and AmateurMasters for a long while now, and finally someone in Vegas said "Come post on Oprano." So I considered myself officially invited and signed up when I got home. So hullo everyone! It was great to meet the faces I met in Vegas, and for the folks I didn't meet, I hope to see you there next year!
Goodness, it'll be worth it to stay here just for the kickass smilie collection!
That's me on the right
OMG there's an Orco smilie. That's it, I'm staying!

Welcome online Elli...
Damn youd think that youd remember who told you to come out and play at Oprano. I guess I didnt rub enough of that fur on you.
Mebbe Shemp will show back up. I personally invited Michelle too

Originally posted by Elli@Jan 10 2004, 03:01 AM I did remember it was you, Gonzo. Believe it or not I missed you in your fine furs, though. I have a story about your donuts, though. Wanna hear?
Why sure Ms. Elli...tell me the story.
Im sure it must be a good one!

Once upon a time not so long ago, in a land not so far away...
Myself, Shemp, TenLetters and StuartD had decided to skip out on the Player's Ball to check out the Krispy Kreme alternative. We journeyed to the upstairs food court at the Venetian at around midnight on that fateful evening. Upon finding only four other people in the food court, we decided that we had missed the party and so decided to begin our very own.
We chose a suitable table and Shemp whipped out a 20$ with which to acquire the appropriate party supplies. TenLetters and I, as it turned out, had never tasted the wonder that is Krispy Kreme before, so we were quite excited to rid ourselves of our donut virginity. After waiting in line at the counter for a few minutes, it was our turn to order our sugary nuggets of heaven.
Even though it appeared to be our turn (we were standing squarely under the "Order Here" sign), the Krispy Kreme employee was busily filling countless boxes of dozens of donuts straight of the conveyor belt. Oh yes, he saw us. He didn't smile, but I suppose you could say he nodded. After filling about 6 boxes, he finally turned his full attention to us. TenLetters suggested, "We could just take one of these boxes." But no! The loyal employee stopped his hand and replied, "No! These are for them!" He waved his gloved hand at the food court behind us.
Them? We both looked around the foodcourt. Other than the two men at our own table, only five people were present, and they were leaving. But we gamely shrugged our shoulders and waited for him to assemble a box of donuts specially for us.
We enjoyed our box of donuts, but we never did figure out who "Them" was who ordered a gross of Krispy Kreme original glazed donuts.

;-)))
I'll never forget the look on the waiter's face when Laura took her top out
;-))))
Although I'm quite sure the lap dance was more enjoyable and the tah tahs more pleasant to look at...
It is quality entertainment to follow a fat fuck in a fur coat with a bare white belly and a couple of boxes of doughnuts thru a casino. If you surf just the right distance in what has come to be known as the "GonZo Wake", you get to not only see the reaction on their faces when they notice him but hear the comments they make after he is out of ear shot.

And watching the Asian folks doubled up in laughter and saying things you can't understand when seeing him is almost as good. :P

Ok I'll bite. How do get a nickname of a nickname?
Thanks for the welcome everyone and thanks for the thread bump Serge! Yeah I've been known to write occasionally. I'm not sure why I waxed poetic over Krispy Kremes, but hey, you take them as they come. They sure did taste good! Now I wish I had been a part of the Gonzo parade! Aw man... So when's the next party? I'm almost recouperated and ready to go again!
Welcome Elli! I think you will have a much more productive experience than what you experienced on the SpamateurCliqueSite. As you can see I have not posted much on this board. WHY? Because I've been too busy reading and learning from the others here...which is what a GOOD webmaster board should do...and they do it well here!

I hear you are in the Vancouver area
You should meet the 'bad boys" of Vancouver adult , cj has ;-)))))
I went to a couple parties this October and met some new faces. Coin, Shemp, DrinkingHard, Webgurl, FNPJen, Katt, Igor, etc etc. Do they count as bad boys or am I missing somebody?
you got as much chance of nekkids of kez as you do of me big boy
ant, LIAR!! we know things have changed dramatically there but the only bible I'd believe is in your office is the porno mags on the bathroom floor!!!!!!!!
Now I know that they don't have Krispy Kremes in japanese restaurants, but resorting to snorting packets of Sweet N' Low really should clue you in that you've got a sugar problem, Nick :P

Truth be told I stashed one bible and one vile of holy water in the office ages ago.. buried up in the ceiling.
Nick/Ant - I've found the bible can be a wonderful tool in a relationship. I often chase my wife around the house with bible in hand. haha
That sounds really interesting... Now I find out what you do for a living!
But it would be hell to do. I need a babysitter and for a few days, babysitters aren't that easy to find especially for a 4yrs old. But it's really not a bad idea at all.
Originally posted by JulieJolie@Jan 10 2004, 05:53 PM Hullo there cutie! Welcum to Oprano, glad to find some more familiar faces on here! Gonzo is so nice to invite us over!
I hear you went to Vegas... when are you coming to Montreal? Can't wait to see that pretty smile of yours in front of me!
Julie, that is all the invitation I need! Don't encourage me! In Vegas everyone was saying "Montreal was the best show, the best party, so awesome, etc etc." I have always wanted to see Montreal, so I think I am far overdue. I want to "je me souviens!"

You need to come to Vancouver.
As guests of Whitcon
We are talking a nice appt in Yale Town previously owned by Mike Myers ;-))
(Whitcon = top 50 sammers...ex owners of Netpond.........you know when Netpond was the number ONE webmaster resource on the net.
Before Meat and Age sued me
And some how I got paid half a million dollars
Hey gonzo,
My nondiscloure was over ages ago...........
If Oprano was open to "exclusives" on the radio,
Gonzo,as a mate...you should contact me
I am so very, very confused. I have a feeling that you throw quite a party. I'm not really into the drug scene, but I do love a good shindig now and then. And yaletown is spiffy in my books heheh It must be better Japanese food than at that last GFY party, though. Shabusen didn't rank very highly in my books for sushi.
