....,but, I'm afraid that was a different era,  4-5 years ago, and things have changed there.  I don't think we'll ever forget that beautiful cake we had made for Nikki's Birthday in '07, will we?  Or, how about......well, I think I'll leave that one unmentioned!

I tried throwing a party in December, January and February.

The January party came off pretty well (if people are bitching that your party is too crowded for the space it's in, it went well, because that means people showed up), but I didn't so much. Props to Puck and others for stepping in for me when I was grounded by doctor's orders.

The other ones flopped. The co-hostess didn't make it. A lot of ladies didn't make it.

I am not doing these for my ego, or that I think I am the indispensable man- DeGaulle is right, the cemeteries are full of indispensable men. It's because they are something that's wanted by the community. If the community isn't showing up, they aren't wanted. So after the Super Bowl, I decided I was done until (at least) AVN 2012. If the community thinks a party is something they want... it will happen. Otherwise, we aren't losing anything by me taking a break.

Doc is out of the party business for his own reasons, but he is pretty much in my boat.
