Open House and Get-Together

-
Image
  The weekend is coming up, and I have an event planned for this Friday evening on the 20th. It is an open house and get-together for people in my Words and Lyrics Club, new members, and all current members of there.com. Thought it would be nice to just chat and have some (relative) newbies meet some of the people in my there orbit -- the event will run from 6 pm to 9 pm, Eastern Time. Everyone is welcome to stop by for a few minutes or hang out for a while. Last night, I hosted another True-Crime Podcast event that covered the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping. Misty and I were talking about how we really have not seen a kidnapping case like this is a very long time, and also how frustrating it is as time goes by with no real answers or clues emerging. I am starting to think she may have been taken to Mexico, which is only about an hour's drive from Tuscon, Arizona. Criminology Podcast Mike Morford is the co-host of the Criminology Podcast, and we have known each other for a while on true-...

Super Bowl Weekend

Image
  Superbowl weekend was a lot of fun and a well-attended event. BABS, Delight, tutu, Sal, Mikey, Droopy, Joykin, and I participated in the set-up and planning of the festivities, and it was a fun mix of fashion, football, and convos. Joykin livestreamed ALL of our Super-Bowl watch party -- link below. Also a shoutout to our resident supermodels who glammed it up on Saturday evening at the fashion show! 2026 SB Watch Party The game itself was pretty much a snoozefest, a defensive struggle through three quarters in which both teams failed to score consistently. Being a Steelers fans, I was pretty much a neutral observer. However, it was nice to see the Patriots denied a 7th Lombardi trophy -- they remain tied with the Steelers at 6. Since I was half-watching the game and overseeing the watch party, I was pretty much distracted from the TV ads. I will have to go back on Youtube and see what I missed. I had a laugh when one of my friends failed to recognize Joe Montana doing the coin f...

Super Bowl 60!

Image
  For the past week or so, I have been doing some decorating at the venue for our upcoming Super-Bowl weekend. BABS did a nice job literally setting the stage for this party by setting up a football field with goal posts. Rowdi_Designs has also helped out a lot by adding such items as table snacks, drinks, and a bar in the end zone. MikeytheItalian has created some cool props that will debut during the Saturday evening festivities. I have tried both, and they look great.   Mikey, i tuoi talenti sono apprezzati! Grazie mille. BABS set up a stage and runway on the field, where Delight will host a fashion show on Saturday evening, February 7th, starting at 7:30 pm. Droopy is also going to spin records Saturday evening in a musical tribute to SB entertainers of the past 25 years. The Super Bowl watch party will take place on Sunday, February 8th -- doors will open at 6:00 pm Eastern Time with the kick-off at 6:30 pm. In decorating for this event, I decided to highlight certain pl...

Photo Caption Contest!

-
Image
  Update: Congratulations to Revenge_NL on his winning caption! While wandering the Fairgrounds recently, I jumped into this cozy hot-tub and snapped a photo. Then a few minutes ago, I wondered if someone could come up with a humorous caption for this picture. I am sure there are a gazillion possibilities, and we have lots of funny avies around. If you see me (matthewkg) walking around the Fairgrounds, IM me your funniest caption. Or shoot me a there.com email. I will record each one (one entry per avie) and award 6k to the winner and 3k to the runner-up. I will leave the judging up to the leader of The Writing Club, and the deadline will be Saturday, January 17th at 12:00 pm -- New York time. Note -- this will be blind judging. Avie names will not be included with the captions while being judged. Hit me up with your best caption! And be sure to visit diaryainzon's Writing-Room Clubhouse. Just look for the Gypsy caravan and red booth. She has lots of interesting content to read, in...
