Dinner with Tarotbear

"No Problem brenmck! We have a full vegetarian menu for those to request it, also a full sparkling water and juice bar. But the good scotch is hiding behind the purple screen. Looks like we're going to see a lot of Medieval Scappini's tonight! I wonder if Stuart Kaplan got his invitation? If you see any hot jocks - send them over to the Knight of Wands."

Well I am currently being stalked (willingly I admit) by the Princess of Wands so I guess I have to come as that card... Maybe I could come as a tiger. I don't think I could find a decent naked lady costume

I do have a copy of Mirror of the Soul that just doesn't interest me. I have a little problem with burning books though, so would someone else oblige me please? (I cannot even bring myself to underline a book, let alone burn it )

What will you say to Tarotbear when you greet him in the receiving line?

I would say the same thing as everyone else: "I can't believe you just did that!" (Also I would like to ask why you are not invited to dinner at Pixie, Al or Arts?)

"Actually, dear similia, I was invited to dinner with Pixie, Al, and Art. I made sure my dinner would be at least two weeks after theirs! As far as the physical bonfire - no one will be made to do anything they don't wish to do (unlike Al's dinner which made many people uncomfortable) flogged pork butt - Well, I never! Perhaps it was the marijuana in the mashed potatoes??? - but never mind! Enjoy the party and just remember - it is a night to have fun!"

I have come dressed as the Empress from the Druidcraft complete with pillow stuffed under my dress for preggers look . I would enter and put a collection of useless LWBs on the table as I can't think of a deck bad enough to burn. To Tarotbear after complementing him on his kilt I would ask "When's the next book out?"

"Oh - this old thing? I've had it for years! Actually, I can't believe I bought it in July 2005 and now that seems so long ago! Burning the LWB's, eh? That's a GREAT idea! Waiter! Get Emeraldgirl anything she desires! The next book - well, my current publisher gave it a passive 'no,' and now I am waiting for Bill Greer - yes -THAT Greer- to design a deck for it so we can package them together. I'll bet Greer doesn't show up, either - he's a recluse at times and a grouchy old bear at other times. The book is finished - I'm just waiting for a deck."

hehehe Well I doubt even Al could get me to do anything I don't want to. (Plus I really love mashed potatoes ) I just like to pretend other people forced me to do things, so I can keep my innocent reputation

I have a second question though. Why don't you design your own deck TB? There is rather a lot of interest in cross stiched and embroidered tarot work lately, I think you could capitalize on the market! Or maybe you can even draw?

On second thoughts you could find a nice lady artist to do the actual work, and in 100 years we can all talk about how wonderful she was, and wonder how she ever put up with you

a large circular item walks in, whispering at the 3 ferrets to run around the wheel. the wheel gazes along the row of mingling guests, and spies the host. in a quite obnoxious voice, she says

"I'm not sure if you noticed, but I, supe, am the Wheel of Fortune. Having only one deck, I brought the LWB instead... Your belt is absolutely diviiiiiiiine, goes great with the kilt!"

"If Greer ever shows up with a deck and we become wealthy tarotists, everyone will be asking me how I ever put up with him! In spite of the fact that there is a 'Stickfigure Tarot' - I don't think you would want to see my drawing efforts ... but then I did design costumes - maybe I could design costumes and turn the costume renderings into tarot cards?"

"supe- that is wonderful! What did you make the Wheel part out of? Fabulous! Oh - do you like the belt? I am trying to convince the man who makes them at huggzbears.com to make a chest harness to match. Welcome to Aeclectic!"

I would turn up and then start blushing. Oh TarotBear from your pics I am suprised clothes are obligatory, then I would cover my faux and say Oh yes I am the Star running around behind the scenes trying to find some Empress or Emperor with a spare layer of yarn

And I would bring my Quest and cast that into the hell fires
