Discussion: Boris to wed

While I suppose most of you are aware that the dear Erin and the lovely Karen are planning to betroth (though not to each other, I hasten to add for all you arch social conservatives), you may not know of the rumor that the Rev. Granovskiy will be conducting a mass wedding ceremony at this year's 1000 Day. Because I am sworn to secrecy, I can not disclose the names of any of the photographically connected couples, but I can say this ain't no baltering rock and roll discussion item.

Disclosure: None of this has been vetted by the NGPC, and I deny any insinuation that I am making that claim. Though it is true that given that the NGPC has been asleep at the switch for several decades at least, it's hard to see what difference any vetting would make.

I know nothing.

Is Swampfox envisioning something out of the pages of Sun Myung Moon's repetoire? That ought to get Laramie all worked up.

As for the NGPC. Might it be possible he's been bought out by the Canadians?

That was quick! Yes, Rev. Moon's prior shenanigans did come to mind when I heard the rumor. But I'm sure Boris can surpass anything Moon did. After all, he's The Spider and lives in Uppsala, a place ripe with foment if ever there was such a place.

I hadn't considered the possibility that the Canadians had got to the NGPC but frankly it can't be ruled out, particularly with the ever strengthening Canadian Loonie in mind. This is almost too distressing to write about, and I may have to toss in the towel on the extra grueling interval workout I was planning for this afternoon, and spend the day being chased around by attack badgers instead.

Boris breeds foment wherever he goes. But, can Laramie handle the notoriety?

Laramie lives for notoriety. It is the cowboy way.

Goats know nothing.

Soooo...are we all invited to attend? And most importantly, will there be cake and ice cream? Will the ceremony take place on Happy Jack or the Plains of Depair?

Regular massage helps to elevate stress :)

Alleviate?

No, no - "elevate" is correct :)

You've got it all wrong. It's not "Boris to wed", it's "Boris towed". Somebody's been dragging him around.

I have to kill some of the rumors - no wedding ceremonies will be performed by Boris during fine 1000 day event in Laramie which will involve me and my fiancée. Thou it would be nice, but not to be. Plus, I do not mix pleasure (orienteering) with business (import/export activities).
But, Mr. Swampfox mentioned mass wedding ceremony – and that lead me to believe that there some other super secret plans he is aware of.

Greg is Baltering up a storm. Rumors are just that, but his amorous inclinations are cold hard facts.

Need I say more?

Ops, no comments ....

Is that even legal in Wyoming?

Where's Balter?

Just when you think it's safe to turn your back on Greg, it's not. In fact, it's never safe, because it only takes an instant and then you're baltered.

At first I thought that was a giant tick about to get an unsuspecting Big Eddie in the picture j-man linked above, but upon expert consultation and highly detailed analysis I now believe it might be Greg imitating the Greater Ozark Spotted Tick. Note the curled proboscis, the sideset eyes, the greedy 8 legs about to hook into the victim...

Btw, I could never spill the super secret beans on other possible 1000 Day wedding plans. It would result in the revocation of my security clearance and possible time in the brig. What do you take me for anyway? A member of the current Administration?

The look of disgust on Eddie's face tells it all.
I am starting to be afraid of paparazzi

Aren't we all learning to hyperlink so well... Curiousity made me click, your honor...

Eeeewwww!

That may be legal in Wyoming, but I know it ain't in Missouri. Greg's lucky the park ranger wasn't around during that episode!

It'd be pretty illegal in Kansas too. That may explain why Greg hasn't taken his import/export business to any Kansas trade fairs, as well as explaining why we haven't seen him galavanting around and baltering up the excellent osage orange at the Possum Trot. But we can hope!

when I see an osage orange I want to find a target for a nice pitch, some members of orienteering fauna may be in mortal danger - foxes, goats...
So, for the safety of the Possum Trot I stay away.

What kind of fauna am I? Or do you consider me flora?

I thought we share desire to throw Osage oranges when we see them, that makes you a hunter, rather POWER-full one. I know this statement may not line up with the coalition you made with Swampfox recently or may be it makes perfect sense.

I do like throwing those buggers, but I've never applied them offensively.

I think there's still a nice pile of them down at Fair Hill...

Do we throw osage oranges at the wedding then? I haven't heard of that custom, but I realize they like to do things bigger and better out west...

I thought the wedding was in Wyoming. Will have to throw cow chips.

And road toads :) They make even better frisbies!

Well, so far Hidalgo de Baltero appears to be playing hard to get (except when he's around Eddie). What's up with that? Maybe it's a new strategy designed to lure his import object of affections over, the reluctant import object thinking in innocence: "Oh, it will be alright, just a nice little vacation in Wyoming." And then by stealth arrangement, the Rev. Granovskiy will swoop in and administer the ceremony with such speed there will be no chance of escape! A very clever plan. We will have to doff our cowboy hats to the master, the ever baltering Greg!

I'm driving to Wyoming, so if we could arrange for a rendezvous with somebody who has a supply, I could transport a bunch of hedge balls out west.
