All are welcome!
The PS3 is set up in the living room for all gamers to play. Motorstorm ROCKS the house 24/7 lately. Ratchet and Clank should be here starting tonight. Tennis is fun for some as well. There are tons of DVD's to watch but only one each of BR and HD-DVD's to view as yet.
There is a second HT room set up in the master bedroom,but it only has a 92 inch screen. The ladies usually head there to sing karaoke. This leaves the main room open to switch to football if we like. The basement gets a little chilly in December, but we could set up some space heaters if anyone wants to play pool. The 2 channel system down there is made up of DIY speakers and an 80W receiver from the 70's. It's not much, but has the tightest base in the house. The best part is that the second fridge is down there filled with wine and beer.
Marisa is making her world famous egg rolls. (they are nothing like the egg rolls you would get at a Chinese restaurant. more like a spring roll, but not) I'll be baking cakes and pies along with Bert's incredible lemon tart. Maybe we could talk him into making a few of his favorites as well. Lets all ask nicely. I call out to LJ to help with the steaks. Who else wants to help out? Maybe if everyone who comes brings one dish we'll bet good to go. Each person should bring their favorite holiday dish. We'll all have a blast trying out each others treats.
Who's in?

You guys are seriously seeing each other?

Jingle Bells Jingle bells...
Whew! I was beginning to think I worded this wrong. *Holiday* party instead of Christmas party would have been more politically correct (just like the Holiday trees you see in the dept. store ads)
Okay, I'll be in the bedroom with the gals (I can Karaoke to a lot of Patti Smith's songs), but when I'm done with them, I'll come out and watch the football games. Be forewarned though GM, if the Eagles game is on, it'll be all I can do to keep myself from throwing my Boddingtons ale can at the screen.
I'll bring some famous Texas chilli that'll warm everybody up. How many bathrooms in your house? :cornut:

It would be a long flight for AA GM.

Keep them spinning,
Bert.

Long flight indeed.. sadly. So where are you based GM? aren't you guys all spreadout throughout the US? Are you going Bert??
How long has this been planed? Is this the first time?

It's all just a cyber party.
Tex,
The Eagles seem to always be on around here. Frickin' cable company even pre-empts my Giants games when they are on at the same time. We're 60 miles from NYC and about 200 miles from Philly, but since we are 500 feet into PA......
Bert & Bernd, sorry for the mix up.
Yeah, anyone who wants to bring systems, can. Plenty of room in the pool room.
Oh come on Audio, it's not that far. Get out the water wings and swim for it.
Come on guys (and FA), who's bringing what to the party. I want lists of food, snacks, drinks, equipment and guests.

haha okay, i'll be there!

Beer? Sorry, but you can not drink beer in my house till you hit 21. But you can have as much cyber beer as you like.
The tarts are welcome, and we'll take good care of your gear while it's here. You and Jes will be in charge of setting it up together. Bring any music you like as well.
Who's next?

It is only in the cyber parties that they let me be Santa.:ihih:

I just hope he keeps his pants on. Last year that made for some uncomfortable moments at the party.

It's ok for Santa to have "feelings". It's not OK for Santa to be doing any "feeling", unless of course your into that. And thats OK too. Just don't let Mrs. Clause find out.

in a couple years our pc's will be out of date, but we'll still be able to play new games, albeit at lesser detail levels. in a couple of years your 360 might still be kick ass, but no new games will be released for it :)
Keep them spinning,
Bert.

The 360 is designed for a minimum 5 year cycle. Its now #2. At least 3 more before the next gen is announced. 4 more before MS will kill development for the 360. And in 4 years the games will play BETTER than now.
In 4 years, your PC will start on fire trying to play games designed then.
