BINGO R4 | Questions & Discussion

[★Meghan★]

Suicide is basically throwing whatever together. I usually do juice with some real fruit and fruity alcohol (flavored-rum, tequila, and vodka). Yum, Yum

Adios Mother F***er (AMF)-vodka, rum, tequila, gin, Blue Curacao, 7-Up, and sweet & sour...yummy!

Ok so as you can tell I am not a lightweight :)

[Zaanodes]

It is just after 4 am on Sunday in Japan.

We still have lots of time to party. Where is everyone?

[Zaanodes]

I didn' used to be. But age has a way of changing things.

[Lis]

Just waiting on Mr Randomizer... Finally afternoon in my time zone, so let the drinks begin.

[Michelle]

I so want a glass of wine right now! :)

Afternoon here too, so it's drinking time. Though I feel a little out of league with my margaritas when apparently there's suicides and AMFs being thrown around. Maybe I will have to step it up a bit?

[Michelle]

I'm quite partial to Purple Rain myself :)

Thanks, Valerie! I hope that does the trick...I didn't notice the tabs at the very top. I need a book called Goodreads for Dummies!

[Zaanodes]

Damn. I am so out of touch with drinks.

Purple Rain?As in Prince? (Which was in my kids' day...)

[Lis]

Out of curiosity I found a long island ice tea with chambord that sounds good, hmmmm.

[Michelle]

Purple Rain is Grenadine, Peach Schnapps, white rum, lemonade, sweet & sour & Blue Curacao. It's really fizzy & refreshing :)

[Cathy]

That sounds fabulous!! Sign me up for one!

[Vivian]

I needs me a Purple Rain (or two). Anything with Peach Schnapps is good with me. Maybe I'll start with a Peach Long Island's. Anyone else care for one?

[Michelle]

I'm the same! Love Peach Schnapps :)

[D.G.]

Cannot wait for the shelf announcement!

I finished the print book and the audiobook I was reading so I need to figure out what to read next!

[Regina]

Wait DG! It always happens that when I chose a book -- I found it could it have been a shelf book. :)

[D.G.]

LOL, that's why I'm waiting!

I'm also in another challenge in another group I belong and I'd like for the book to fit both!

[Zaanodes]

Almost 6:30 am Japan time...

Think she is an early riser? How much recoop time does she need from finals, Tea Party, hubby...BSB R4...

Well...A little while more...

I am in the mood for Samosas...Join me, anyone?

[Vivian]

mmm, Samosas! I'm going to make some Fried potatoes too. Love the virtual calories :D

[Lis]

Virtual calories are the best! Less than two months to vacation, diet diet exercise diet... Super Bowl sunday food battle begins in less than 24 hrs.

Sign me up for one of those... or maybe two.

No problem, I'll make a pitcher unless anyone has a barrel?

[★Meghan★]

I have a half barrel around here somewhere and a few punch bowls...would those work?

Is Steph awake yet?

[Zaanodes]

Here is the clock that I use. It continually updates, no refreshing! (Except on my ereader, darn it!)

[Cee]

Ohh that's a really neat site to find the time. I will probably use it more often, you Americans all confuse me with your time zones ^^

[Zaanodes]

We Americans confuse ourselves with our time zones. lol

[Lis]

Ok, it's 9 am in Japan, I have no Peach Schnapps or blue curaçao, so I'm cracking open a Mike's hard limeade... I have extras if anyone wants to join me... The waiting is killing me!

Pace pace pace pace... Turn... Pace pace pace.... Turn...

[Lis]

Don't forget daylight savings time... Let's do it in March, to october oh wait let's change that to November... WTH!?!

[Zaanodes]

At least Europe can take the blame for coming up with DST! lolol

Of course, that was ___ years ago!

Then Good Ol' Benjamin Franklin started pushing for it here.

I am fighting the urge to join you, Lis...but I can't. Even though this Pink Moscato I discovered yesterday is calling my name...I can't. It takes a lot to get me drunk but if I DO get drunk, I'm gonna be worse than McUseless for the rest of the evening. I can't even watch TV when I'm drunk, better yet read.

[Zaanodes]

And I agree. Changing the start/end date?!?!?

Twice a year I am late/early for work. Friday before, EVERYBODY reminds me!

[Lis]

@Lethal. I discovered Moscato while wine tasting in Italy last summer. The closest I've found back home is Cavit Moscato, but it's not pink.

[★Meghan★]

I just made a run to the liquor store for some alcohol!

[Lis]

Yeah Meghan, if we can't read, then drink... And if Steph calls the shelf we can do both!

[★Meghan★]

I think tonight I will make myself a good drink and sit and start in on my reading. Starting with the FREE SPACE...

[Zaanodes]

We have SHELF!!

http://www.goodreads.com/shelf/show/s...

[Steph, Serious series addict]

Our first shelf announcement is up!
Happy Reading, Everyone! :)

& Happy Super Bowl Weekend!

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

Yay!!!

That saves me having a Suicide/AMF/Purple Rain. LOL

[Judithe, Soap Operas never end....]

LOL...they've talked about adding DST here (Japan) but just figure everyone would put in even MORE overtime so there would be NO difference in electricity savings, free time, etc.

I keep trying to see the sun and moon jump an hour. I always miss it!

[Judithe, Soap Operas never end....]

G'mornin, Steph! Thanks and have a great weekend yourself!

[Cee]

Oh my god, we got a shelf, I'm so excited :D Happy reading guys!

[Sandra, Kindle Operator Licence Required]

We've had DST here for well over 25 years, and QLD doesn't want to play with the rest of us. LOL. So 4 time zones, & Tassie changes differently so sometimes 5 time zones. We all cope now, just used to it. :D

[Zaanodes]

Off to read!

Enjoy the GAME, Steph! And thank you!

[Cee]

Whoa, no wonder I don't get it!

[Lis]

Thanks Steph! And Good Morning! I hope our Bingo chanting wasn't too loud and didn't wake your hubster.

[Christina (AKA Babbling)]

Steph, I don't know if everyone realizes that you're not posting the shelves in the team threads this round. :(

[Judithe, Soap Operas never end....]

That may be so...I'll just pop around with a reminder to them!

[Christina (AKA Babbling)]

Judithe wrote: "That may be so...I'll just pop around with a reminder to them!"

Thanks, Judithe! :)

[Judithe, Soap Operas never end....]

Done! Almost everyone had (or at least one teammate had) already popped over. Or, one kind teammate had posted a direct link. Whew.

Now off to happily read!
