Boots are fine as long as they are removed from their owner's feet.

That seems reasonable. Probably the same with bonnets, huh?

Instead of hijacking, I'd like to think of it as drumming up interest.

Well, actually, two heads are better than one. I'll let the Seller decide.

I was about to post a general reminder to bring plenty of cash to buy all the great boot items. But then I figured most would be happy bartering too. And bartering could be goods, or services. And then I pictured the likes of Secco and the Cod bartering services and immediately wanted to vomit my buffalo chicken calzone.

P.S. NoNo- pinapple does not belong on any pizza-related product at any time.

Hawaiian pizza is the best!!!

Gack. If you're going to eat Hawaiian pizza, you might as well wash it down with Barq's. Bleaaech....

And to think I was going to bring some root beer for the soda swap.

The boy with no imagination when it comes to MINI colors does indeed like root beer. You know hoethere are beer snobs, and wine snobs, and even coffee snobs? Well, MGB Boy (I still don't believe he actually has an MGB) is a Root Beer Snob. And Barqs just doesn't rate well on his scale.

[jwardell]

Fresh-brewed root beer out of a keg is spectacular. Perhaps someone will put a quarter barrel in their boot?

[NoNo]

Perhaps someone, along with all sorts of baked goods, will be so kind as to bring some Foxon Park birch beer. Perhaps.

[jwardell]

Oh, now you've REALLY got be going. I'll bring $100 bills.
Of course nothing else goes better with pizza (or calzones).

Actually, the issue is that MINI is the company with no imagination when it comes to colors. With the way they've whittled down the options of late, my choice was essentially red, white, or a broad assortment of samey blue/gray/black hues. Red is the only loud color they have left. C'est la vie.

That's because you only see me at MINI functions. Why would I drive a non-MINI to a MINI function? That would be as daft as driving a VW to MINIs On Top. Silly boy. Some day I'll drive the '77 to an event. Great exhaust on that car. Twice the noise as my MCS-W but half the power. Makes a noise entirely unjustified based on the power it puts out. Good times.

Damn straight. Barq's wouldn't rate on any true root beer aficionado's scale. No sir. It's not root beer, it's root beer flavored cola. Bah.

[NoNo]

I can just see Ricardo waving his cane around wildly, then muttering about these whippersnappers and their lack of respect.

[snid]

In a kilt, probably.
