I was speaking with Mr. Constable this weekend and he hatched a plan: let's go to Jones Beach and play a round of Pitch & Putt on Sunday after Jackie's wedding. It won't be quite the same without Tooker peeing in the bushes or Karyn playing her drop from the shoulder of the road, but it sounds pretty freakin' fun.

Thanks Karyn but I know Nick deserves a Happy Birthday too. It was good to see a bunch of you over the weekend. Just to give a little ankle update it was dislocated for a bit now it is all purple (including my toes for some reason) & my whole leg up to my knee is swollen huge.
Look forward to seeing you guys again. I just have to remind everyone that is planning on donating they have till June 30th for this year.

Oy, Sounds like 2004 didn't have the Social Chair with the same level of Skizalz as our social chair. (Way to go Bear!)
And what's the deal with men jello wrestling??? I mean, I have come to expect such things from Dahl, but c'mon POD. In case you missed it, God invented jello wrestling for WATCHING any number of sweet young (female) things having a go, covered in sticky sweet goodness... NOT for a cheeky underhanded groping of Dahl's Rochambeau-damaged goods. Even Bill Cosby could have told you that!
Thanks for the update Karyn, and all... It's fun to be kept in the loop. Hope you're all enjoying the summer.

Dave, the bands were really disappointing. We started with elephant man and the old groupie dancer. They had a Stones sound, but really, not at all the stones and not at all that great. The best part of their performance was the old groupie dancer that danced in the middle of first terrace all by herself in the rain for the entire set. Her signature move was to exhale smoke as she shimmed down to the ground. Then came Steve O's punk friends who shouted for a short time then disappeared to play on the jousting thing, next we had an acoustic set, which was decent but mellow, followed by another hard rock group who maybe "sang" 3 words to each song. I think their terribleness was overshadowed though by the jello antics*. The last band was of course Spider Nick who rocked as usual. They started playing at 8 o'clock though, so we had to do a few shots to get us into midnight mode.
*James McGrath thought it would be a brilliant idea if they filled a kiddie pool full of red jello for people to wrestle in. Jason of course was the first to enter, followed by Ben, Gabe, Ryan, Wiggins, and at my request Gabe made James go in. I think a couple of other people may have fallen victim to the jello by night's end but they weren't part of the initial show.

Alright Gram. You win. Maybe the therapy really DID help. I haven't heard you say Sssspeedo in quite a while.
Ok ok, enough being silly and mean. So... any decent bands play webbstock?

Per Jason's request, one revenge limerick:
There once was a risk taker named Dahl
Who oft played Rochambeau with a ball
In the course of these spectacles
He damaged his testicles
And Gabe* says they're now quite small
*I'm not sure I've ever heard Gabe say this, but he would probably be willing to attest to it in vengance for all of the slanders Jason has made against him:
Stevie T's Top Ten Books
"Little Woman" Why Gabriel Weymouth is a giant puss -By Jason Dahl
My Top 7.4 Questionable Students
Kate- She dated Gabe and Dahl said he is gay.
And while I'm insulting people...
Corey, you were so proud when the Buccaneers won the Super Bowl, aren't you going to give a shout out for your new hockey team?

Webbstock alums included: Gram, Ryan, Karyn, Dahl, & Doug from 02. Wiggins & Emily, John & Carry, Rachel, Steph, Ben, & Tom from 03. Gabe, & Luke (Late) from 01.....did I forget anyone?
And to Dave, I didn't remember anything about little boys.....just hot teenage girls!
posted by Gram 11:52 AM
So how many from our class actually went to Webbstock?
posted by Corey 10:45 AM
Hee Hee. Leave it to Gram to remember things about the young girls... and boys.

Hello everyone.....don't know if you remember the day our senior year when Geoff Whitely's daughter had her 16th birthday party, and we all commented that there was going to bee all kinds of trouble in two years.....well, who was in the pub late saturday night after webbstock playing beer pong and picking up Tom Edwards high school buddies.....yep, a "barely legal" Laura Whitely.
Anyway, to those who made the 25th annual Webbstock, it was great to see you, and to those who missed it, it just isn't the same as it used to be. Bands ended at 10:30, few kegs were actually finished, and when I went to the pub at 1:00 the only person I knew there was Tom Edwards.
Can't wait to see the rest of you this summer.
