Back in the day, we'd spike the punch with acid so the room would seem
bigger and even the stove top stuffing tasted better.

I guess I'll cross you off the guest list; I DO know how to throw a party
but, I sure as shit don't wanna read a review of it here.

Magic brownies work well too.

haha!! Yes I did. Fortunately the OP wasn't there; he'd have ****ed and
moaned about something I'm sure. Probably the Zappa tunes being played.

Maybe. Some people just like to complain. The OP seems to have left
different impressions on some of us. As far as cook-ins, the two
I've had were probably the hardest to plan and organize I've ever had.
But also the most rewarding. This year the nearest person was 3
hours, and I think Boli had to drive 18 hours. Having people come at
different times, even days makes things interesting. We kinda had to
just go with the flow. The first year it was in the 90's and it was
pointed out I didn't have enough bottled water. So I stocked up this
year, but didn't have enough pop in the coolers. It was so cold and
rainy poor Cyndi was shivering. Snot had me start a fire in the
fireplace and turn the heat on. Needless to say I've got a few cases
of bottled water in the garage.

As much as I try, something is always not quite perfect when I get a
larger group together. Shit happens. Threads like this help me brush
up my skills. <g>

I'd say the record shows you did a great job. We all just have to accept
that Murphy's Law is the law of the land.

As for the OP, he's partly correct, and part whiner. Some people really
don't get the 'gathering' thang.

I read the review of *one* of your parties. It sounded like a great time.
