Guys with Guns and Poetry - October 9, 2004

We assembled at Marc's house on Saturday night to drown our sorrows with great booze, cigars and food because our women were having fun somewhere else. It was very difficult to bear up without them but, as you can see from the photos, we tried.

The evening was unusual for several reasons. First, Marc had his nephew's and their friend over. They are nice young men who have cool guns. They brought their paintball machine gun and we had a lot of fun shooting up the hillside. Secondly, Marc's cousin Paul sent down some poetry about cigars and women and Marc did a dramatic reading. This is a first. We didn't even know that Marc could read. Third, we told some very funny jokes, none of them are fit for a family oriented website except one from Mike:

"Why are Democrats better than Republicans?" Why?" "Well, you've never heard of a good piece of elephant have you?" Poetic, dontchathink?

Finally, for our after dinner entertainment, we ambushed Herm with a Jalapeno stuffed olive. It was pretty funny for everyone except Herm. It’s good that Herm is so gentle… we’d be seriously screwed if he got pissed with a gun. Here are photos of the event. I promised several attendees that I would prove to their wives that we really do just drink, smoke and shoot the ... well, you get the idea. So ladies, here you go.
