Begins to rip down 12-page spreadsheet of last years' participants while belting out "Please, Mr. Postman." Finishes. Begins to sort through other tacked-up items. Reads, then re-hangs, a print-out of the thread that first introduced the Bash way back in 2000-whatever. Gently removes and reverently disposes of drool-damaged photo of Johnny Depp. Replaces it with new photo of Johnny Depp. Decides to leave the rest of the stuff: the slip of paper on which is jotted the URL for the Snowglobe Game; a print-out of an e-card that has been hilariously defaced by Cathy Nurmi; dog-earred menu from local Chinese restaurant; copy of very nice email from Mr X; holiday card from m2 to the rest of the facilitators; photo of Tiggirl and MrNiceGuy (wearing his elfin ears); handy Australian-to-English translating guide; and all the rest. It's a big wall. We'll find space for new stuff. <-- Bouncing along, singing "Numa Numa Song," picks up a long-empty container, lifts top, and sniffs. Enjoys the lingering aroma of the rum balls. <<-- Sits at computer. Pulls up LaughingPlace. Peruses a few threads. Finds this one. Hits "Post a Message Under This Topic" and types: Yes, Jazzalita, there IS a Winter Bash 2006. As long as there are posters who are excited to share the experience with each other... as long as there is magic in this community... and as long as I can find a couple more LP'ers to graduate from the Elf Academy by Halloween... there WILL be a Bash this year! How could there NOT be?! I continue to be amazed at the life it's taken on, at how enthusiastically people look forward to participating. And at how successful it is in introducing LP'ers to each other and in strengthening our sense of community. We'll make it happen. Stay tuned! <<-- Gets up and begins replacing burnt-out bulbs in the light strings that hang across the huge Re-Packaging/Re-Mailing counter while laughing for the millionth time at Adam Sandler's "Hannukah Song".

Originally Posted By Liberty Belle I've bought exactly ONE item for the Bash already! Not sure where I put it, though ... but anyway, I'm looking forward to playing this year since I was journeying around the US last year and couldn't participate.
