[Herr Van der Graaf]

Well, I would take you paintballing, for a start. Firstly, it's wicked fun, secondly, I like a girl who isn't scared to get dirty or mess up her hair, and thirdly, if you decide you don't like me, you can shoot me. Then, once we'd gotten ourselves cleaned up, we could go for ice cream, or pizza, or something that suits your tastes. I hate to sound generic, but after that, I'm afraid it's compulsory that we go to an amusement park. It's also required that you eat lots of cotton candy, and that we go on all the fastest, most sickening rides there. I'll also try to win you a stuffed toy. Hopefully something really ugly so that you'll remember me forever. I like individuality. Once we were done there, we could go down to the beach. Walking, sitting, swimming, it doesn't matter, it's just a cool place to hang out, and we should have fun. You could also **accidentally** lose any really ugly stuffed animals you may have accumulated into the surf. Then I'd walk you home, give you a hearty, friendly hug (all the while hoping for more) and bid you good evening.

I realise this would probably take longer than an afternoon, but you're worth it.

[Cadillac Jac]

1) What is your idea of one wild fun crazy afternoon?

Well Kristen, I'd take you out in my 1964 Cadillac Eldorado...



...and we'd go drag race some cars for money. Since I always win, we'll take the money (not that I need any, though), and spend it on some chicks. Boo yeah!

Oh wait. That wouldn't be spending the entire afternoon. Since your glistening presence and luminescence enlightens even the strongest of hearts, I can't even perceive wasting even a fraction of a second by spending time without you, so I'd juggle my appoitments with movie stars, lawyers and supermodels to meet you this one fine afternoon.

But the wild fun craziness? I'm getting to that. After the dragracing and chicks, we'd head off to a bar out over by the bay, with beautiful views of the landscapes and ocean stretching thousands of miles outward - right at sundown, so that there is still time for a night of wild fun craziness! The dinner would consist of some cotton candy, chips, and a whisky on the rocks, literally! We'd be eating in the bay, on some rocks, with some whisky and bourbon. Though I've never tried or thought of trying any of those drinks before, the craziness is just that - trying new things!

Ooohhh but the night has just started! We'd hover back to the Eldorado (via some hover boards), and drive off down a beautiful winding path along the coast of the Hawaiin mountains in the sparkling presence of tropical trees and plantlife. I pick flowers along the way -- giving them to you. You look confused. How did we end up in Hawaii? Questions are not for the asking, my dear Faerie, Hawaii is a beautiful place, and craziness is to blame. And there, the afternoon ends.

[Herr Van der Graaf]

bah.

[SoSuMi]

A crazy afternoon

First, from your house, we'd need to get a quick flight south into California. We'd start the actual afternoon by bungee jumping holding hands off a tall bridge toward the ocean water below. When we stop bouncing and untangle our cords from our bodies and our bodies from each other, we'd be lowered into a speedboat and take off across the waves to a nearby dock, where a sleek, fire-engine red convertible awaits us. While we're driving around the mountain-hugging roads on the California Coast to Malibu Beach, we'll crank the radio and enjoy the ocean breezes.

I leave the rest of it up to you. Once the afternoon is done, you can fly back to Oregon (it's an open-ended ticket), or we can continue partying into the night at a hopping dance club. The only moves I'll make are while dancing - after all this is just the first date, right?

[Dragon Phoenix]

I'd take you to my place, and then I'd put on a disc of Billie Holiday and -

now where did she go?

[Suki]

Ahoy, matey!

I say we go sailin' upon the high seas! If we're lucky, the sun will shine, and we can work on our tans. If we get rain, well, I guess we'll have to go "fishing" for gold, matey! Say, how are you with a saber?

[Peabody]

Four words: Fun With Liquid Nitrogen

Surprizingly cheap and readily available, there is no end to the hijinks one can get into with liquid N₂.

We could start with the cute little annoyances, like freezing doors shut, or just supercooling doorknobs.

Then we could head to the park and entertain some little kids with the common tricks - quick freezing bananas for hammers or flowers to watch them prettily shatter when they get dropped. And padlocks! - have you ever seen someone's puzzlement when they return to find their bicycle lock broken, but their bike not stolen?

Then we could sneak into a movie - perhaps Insomnia, and enhance the atmosphere with some wonderful sublimation-fog effects inside the theatre.

But the center of the afternoon would have to be something bigger... I know! We could freeze a few cans of shaving cream, cut the cans off, and deposit the frozen contents in the automobile of your least-favorite-professor! It only takes three or four cans to fill a car when they thaw. The expression on his face would be priceless!

[Keith Richards]

Heroin. Lots of heroin.

[Captain Vague]

I'd pick you up in a vehicle and take you to this place I know. The smell of something would be heavy in the air as we sit on the ground. Or on chairs. Actually, we might be standing.

For dinner, I'd take you to a restaurant and we would order some food. Then we'd go out to do something fun. Possibly involving some sort of building.

Finally, I'd drop you back off at your house, both of us content with our day filled with something.

------------------

[Romeo]

Well for starters i'd pick you up in my classic Alfa Romeo convertible (a car that i actually do own), and then we would drive down to the docks, and rent a 420, or another two person sail boat. We'd sail to an island and have a picnic lunch sitting on the rocks, while looking at the ocean. After lunch we would sail back, and cruise around town. If there were any good movies playing that neither of us had seen, we could catch one. We wouldn't have that much of a plan beyond that going into this, because when you finalize things like this in advance, it gives them an artificial feel, whereas a spontaneous action feels far more genuine. We would basically do whatever we were in the mood for.The second part is only partially because i couldn't come up with anything else



[This message has been edited by Romeo (edited 06-18-2003 09:30 PM).]

[Dr. Dubey]

Our afternoon would begin at my local Science Center, where children learn and adults like us can play like children. We would solve their brain teasers, be fooled by their optical illusions, and play with the giant musical ball machine. We'd talk to each other across the room using the giant radio dishes, and practice sending morse code to each other. We'd stop an explain to some kids how some of the machines worked. All of a sudden, an argument would erupt about the relativistic speed of light, and we'd be torn up about which of us would be the observer. When the exhibit on quantum mechanics only wetted our appetites, we'd launch into a discussion about the multiverse and superstring theory. Then we'd have icecream.

[Faeriefire]

Wow, I am impressed by all of you These all sound like wonderful times . . . except the one by Keith Richards . . .


2) Last night I went out to dinner with some friends at a restaurant called Billy McHale's. It's one of those weird restaurants where they put a bunch of random stuff on the walls and such. If you owned such a restaurant, what kind of food would you serve and name some items, posters etc that you would have inside.

[Romeo]

For starters i would serve all the traditional american type cuisine. Hamburgers, Hot Dogs, French Fries, et cetera. I'd also have some healthier things, like a variety of salads, and some veggieburgers. The restraunts specialty would be different preparations of eggs. Poached, Fried, Scrambled... everything you could want. On the walls would be everything from a stuffed aligator to upside down pay phones. From stolen street signs to copies of Escher. From an assortment of cooky and malformed clocks, to a wax basket of fruit.

[fhqwhgads]

1) What is your idea of one wild fun crazy afternoon?
Waterbaloons are awesome. Not only that, but waterbaloons filled with jello are fun and tasty! We could throw them off the top of tall buildings and try to hit people with large hats. Or if it's raining, try to hit umbrellas. Mwhahaha!

other water related activities, such as attacking each other with the garden hose, or getting soaked in a walk through fountain. All wild and crazy fun!

Then, to dry off, we could lay our clothes in the sun to bake while we streak down main street.

okay, maybe not that.

actually, I'm thinking something more along the lines of industrial fans. like the ones that blow upward, so that you can fly on the wind. Those things r0x0r! I imagine we'd be pretty exhausted after all that, so then we could go back to my place to finger paint the walls

2) Last night I went out to dinner with some friends at a restaurant called Billy McHale's. It's one of those weird restaurants where they put a bunch of random stuff on the walls and such. If you owned such a restaurant, what kind of food would you serve and name some items, posters etc that you would have inside.

I think that the menu should be comprised of the main dish of major cultures around the world. American cuisine could be a burger and fries. The Italian dish would be some sort of pasta, probably pasta primavera or something similar. Spaghetti would be to common. The Oriental dishes would definitely include rice, and probably seafood or some sort, and sushi too. there could be Spanish Rice for Spain, some sort of Spicy meat dish with rice for India. Definitely Some good Mexican food, and Dishes from South American and Europe and on and on... there's so much good food in the world!

As for decoration, there would be paintings and sculpture of all types. Modern art beside abstract beside surrealistic pieces. all of them would draw attention to themselves with eye-catching themes, colors, or ideas. It would be an eye feast to go with the good food!

Bring on the next question!!

------------------
Everybody to the limit,
Everybody come fhqwhgads!

[Captain Vague]

My restaurant would be called T. J. MacSomewhat's. Food would be served. The tasty kind. On the wall would be some things, some stuff, and some other things, different from the first things.

[Suki]

Argh, I'd get Cookie to serve up the tastiest grub the seven seas ever did see. Only I wouldn't let him play with paprika, matey, those were some times, there! We told him to put as much of the stuff on our food as he could, so that we could get rid of the spice. But what we didn't know was that he had pillaged a barrel of it off a ship near the Phillipines!

On the walls, I'd hang some of the best booty, but not the gold, matey. Sabers and pistols and chains and old looking-glasses. I could even part with a few treasure maps - but not just any of my maps, no! Aye, and the best part of it is that we could rob the customers and they'd come back the next day! Ahoy, food industry, in sails Suki and her crew.

[Keith Richards]

serve: heroin
decor: black

[Peabody]

My restaurant would serve popcorn. Hundreds of varieties of popcorn.

There'd be various flavors: plain, buttered, caramel, cheese, white cheddar, jalapeno, cinnamon... Served with or without various types of nuts: peanuts, cashews, pistacchios, pecans... Attractively arranged and dyed in interesting colors/patterns, and served in various sizes of collectable tubs.

Any other other foods would be a corruption of the grand vision.

The decoration would be a ceiling to floor collage of popcorn advertisements through the years. Jolly Time, Magic Pop, KarmelKorn, Pop Secret, all would have their voice, though of course Orville Redenbacher would reign supreme.

[Dr. Dubey]

The food served could only be described as creative. Every dish, would, at a minimum, have 5 different spices that had never been tried before togther. I have a tin of Indian spices in my cupboard that work wonders when randomly combined. I don't even know what I'm eating, and neither will the people who come. And they'll love it.

On the walls... photographs of nobel laureates, spice and pepper charts, pictures and renderings of planets, nebulae, and spatial phenomenons, and liscence plates that said clever things.

[SoSuMi]

The Restaurant
I think I'd do mine up with a Chinese menu, because I love Chinese food. There would also be traditional Chinese decorations, like those painted paper lanterns and fans, plus a fish pond and a Chinese garden in one corner.

Around the walls, I'd have pictures of all kinds of people with cartoon-like speech bubbles with a bunch of funny sayings.

Because of the Chinese origin of the food, one wall would be decorated in posters claiming "Learn Chunese in FIVE Minutes, and here are examples of the words in the thought bubbles and the explanatory text below:

Sum Ting Wong - That's not right
Hu Yu Hai Ding? - Are you harboring a fugitive?
Kum Hia Nao - See me ASAP
Dum Gai - Stupid Man
Tai Ni Po Ni - Small Horse
Wai Yu So Tan? - Did you go to the beach?
Ai Bang Mai Ni - I bumped into a coffee table
Chin Tu Fat - I think you need a face lift
Wai So Dim? - It's very dark in here
Wai Yu Mun Ching? - I thought you were on a diet
No Pah King - This is a tow away zone
Wai Yu Kum Nao? - Our meeting is scheduled for next week
Lei Ying Lo - Staying out of sight
Wa Shing Ka - He's cleaning his automobile
Yu Stin Ki Pu - Your body odour is offensive
Fu Kin Su Pah - Great

Hopefully that will be taken in the spirit intended.

[Herr Van der Graaf]

I think I'd like to have a restaurant set out like a giant chessboard... just because that would be really fun. The floor would be all black and white... and so would the decor. The people could sit on giant chess pieces... and they could also play as they ate. I'd like to base the food on the kind of thing my aunt and uncle (who, obviously, own one) have done... a very multicultural mixture, but based largely on her (my aunt's) Chinese culture, and the Italian-based nature of the town they live in. Also there are some large French influences. As for the decorations.... I'd have to go with some of my favourite bands for a start (although I won't tell them to you now, because it might give a clue as to my identity), some of their posters and other random merchandise. Apart from that, the only thing I'd be certain of is that I want a moose. I've always wanted one of those big stuffed moose heads on my wall.

[Faeriefire]

As always, your answers are considerably amusing

3) Make me a a picture. Start from scratch, enhance something already done, whatever; just be creative. If you don't have somewhere to upload it to, feel free to send it to me and I'll take care of it.

Argh, it's a treasure map!

[Stained Glass]

1) Well, on the normal afternoon I would still be sleeping. But if I was with you and you wanted to have a wild fun crazy afternoon we would put on survival suits and swim out into the ocean! You donÕt get wet, cold or anything terrible awful in this wild fun crazy afternoon!

2) I would have a cartoon restaurant! There would be all kinds of crazy characters on the walls and maybe even some 3-d statues of the more popular people. I would serve items that are really easy to cook, because right now I have to be nice to the cook on my job. (Things like steak, hamburgers, fried chicken strips, sandwiches)

3)
Because you are extra special, I will show you three pictures that I have made. All three were made using Bryce and are completely original. If you really only wanted one, only look at the first picture.

Does Friday night sound good with you?

[Romeo]

For the sake of things i'm going to assume that pictures taken via camera are ok. If this isn't ok, let me know and i'll draw you something. I couldn't make up my mind on which picture to go with, so here's my 4 favorite.

[Mr. Tillamook]

1 Three words: Pie Eating Contest

2 I would serve tasty stuff, such as Tillamook Ice Cream. Patrons would be given crayons and allowed to draw on the walls.

[Mr. Tillamook]

[Suki]

Yes, we all love FF...bump

[Faeriefire]

I enjoyed all the pictures . . . whether through laughter or with a smile.

4) Tell me what about yourself you like best.

[Captain Vague]

Um, that one thing. You know, that aspect-type thing? That's what I like best.

[Faeriefire]

Wow, I came here to try to add encouragement and a sense of competition or something and I get stunned by Peabody's picture. I love it

Hmm, an analysis so far . . .
Peabody, I love the idea of liquid nitrogen. Sounds dangerous, but tons of fun. I will have to try it sometime. I have no clue who you are, at all
Herr van der Graaf. I love the name. I'm big into physics, and it's creative. Mackay?
Cadillac Jac, called me Kristen, which I didn't like at all. My name is Kristina. I like to be called the whole thing, nothing less. I get called Kristine a lot. But otherwise, I liked your plans . . . just wish you'd come back for more. no idea
SoSuMi, do you think I live in Oregon? I got confused. But, yes, I do love fire engine red. Mmmm . . . good color. And the language thing for your restaurant was funny. blah, I'm no good at this guessing thing
Suki is hilarious. I think someone knows about my love for pirates That special someone who shares my major?
Keith Richards . . . I could do without. The pic was neat, but you're not a hottie . . . by a lot. I'm left with a blank on this one
Captain Vague, you could do with a little more detail and a little less vague. still clueless
Romeo, I loved the pictures, especially the last one. Snow I like this 'not knowing' isn't fun at all
Stained Glass, I was enjoyed your pictures greatly. To say the least, I was impressed. there appears to be more people in my game than I can name
Mr. Tillamook is a big fat cheater. He's using my love of ice cream to get ahead in the game! Mr. Birthday Guy?
fhqwhgads, the "fun with science" afternoon sounds great! And of course you can never lose with a name from homestarrunner. My favorite muslim?

[Dr. Dubey]

Is it bad when the bachlorette forgets you?

*sulks*

I have a nice picture, but I think I will hold on to it for now... *sniff*

[Faeriefire]

I'm so sorry, Dr. Dubey!
~snogs~ Take this as an apology?

actually . . . when I was talking about fhqwhgads afternoon, I meant yours. And I loved what you wanted to put up in your restaurant.

Ach! I need to pay better attention.

Umm . . . I'll just stop talking now.

[Stained Glass]

4)
I love my artistic ability and the enjoyment I get from creating artwork. I do much more than just Bryce...fractals, photography, ceramics, painting, sketching or even doodling Getting a compliment from you about my art is so nice.

-hehe have to remember to post under this name -

[This message has been edited by Stained Glass (edited 06-23-2003 07:14 PM).]

[Suki]

Aye aye, matey, I'm pretty proud of my S2000. More than that, though, I'd say that my best attribute is my adventurous spirit. To live as a pirate is to live indeed! Ahoy!
