Indeed my friend, but the "Axworthy's 13" crew is already scheming up DTBB4.

AND, confidential talks have began for DTBB-007 in 2012.

No, Mr. Bryce..... I expect you to DIE!!!

I am sorry to disagree with your smashed grape instructioner, but breakfast of champions consists of:

Scotch eggs, with a Scotch infused pepper sauce
Scotch marinated bacon
Rye toast sopped in a Scotch and butter dip
A Scotch and pear smoothie
Apples soaked in Scotch
And a espresso with a Scotch back.


Yeah..... Now thats livin'!

Great, you curse me out on future DTBB events for "spilling of the beans" - suggestively - but you give away the DTBB secret brunch recipe.

Nice goin' ya Yank! :tup:

That recipe looks pretty good but it is missing one very important ingredient...

More SCOTCH!

4 weeks from right now I will be somewhere near the Las Vegas airport. I think my flight lands around 9:00 local time.

Jag, DO7, Dent, I sure you recall how that went....or maybe you don't.

It is a little hazy, but I recall something about beer, water and bikinis.

Hmmmm... I do seem to recall bikinis. :tup:

Mmmmmm.....DTBB girls in bikinis....Mmmmmmm. If you look on the DTBB myspace site, you can refresh your memory. You also might want to scroll down to the Valentine's Day greeting from Miss West.

There's a possibility that Miss Sterling may be attending with a few ladies. If that ends up being the case, their's will be known as the "extra special hospitality suite" - $5 cover before 10pm and two drink minimum. Don't tip anything less the a ten boys and I need to talk to the event staff about having the pole installed.

And if you value your "jewels", none of this wadding up a bill and throwing it at any of them. This is out of respect for them and your own safety.

The "house" only takes 5% of the action but Felix and his boys get 10%.

Just sayin'.

We call that a "Service Fee", Bryce. And it is 10% of the gross.

Just sent you a PM, Felix. Let me know if you received it and all is well!

I must admit...I'm intrigued. Is the sizing necessary for the Red Square bib? The body-bag sizing after the water re-certification?

So many questions...so few coherent answers... :tup:

Felix - There is a LOG BOOK when it comes to body bags. One of the few instances where "Size does matter". It just makes it easier for your boys.

Just thought some of you might be glad to know since I've been getting asked... that although I'm not attending DTBB... it turns out I will be in Vegas Aug 6-8th with a girlfriend of mine (last minute trip she planned and her trip-buddy bailed on her so I said I would go). Looking at the DTBB schedule I figured I'd come on over to one of the bars at the Venetian on Thursday afternoon and since it looks like Dinner might be on your own and my girlfriend has an errand she needs to run at that time... might be a good time to get dinner with those of you who e-mailed me.

Joe, Fred, Mark, Darin, Grant, John...? Am I forgetting anyone? I figure Charlie will be busy with the event, if not you too then of course! You guys up for Dinner on Thursday? I'll shoot you all an e-mail, but figured I'd post here in case there's anyone else that I don't know about who's going to be there who might like to join.

Sounds good to me Athena. Of course we wish you were attending DTBB with us (who will take all of the pictures for us??), but we will settle for seeing you when we can.

Look forward to seeing you again.

Athena,
look forward to seeing you in Vegas. I sure wish you could be part of DTBB3! We could use an official photographer - and most of the DTBB pics on the web are yours.
Sounds like something our CIA liason should help put in place!

Just as a reminder, folks, Thursdays schedule is not posted yet, with the exception of Flight Certification and Wine Tasting starting at 8:00 PM. Individual Medical Certifications will fall between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM, scheduled after the last day of registration.

Seems like from 6pm to 8pm there's really not time to schedule anything. But anywho, either way Thursday is when I can do dinner with anyone who wants to... so just putting it out there for those who want to see me while I'm there since non-registrants can't join in on any DTBB events. I might be able to come buy later that night when you're all in the bar, but Rosy and I will be celebrating my graduation from Cosmetology school quite thoroughly so I can't promise that and wanted to schedule a for sure time when I know I could get away and hang.

Fred and Mark I look forward to seeing you guys! THANKS A BILLION, you guys rock hard!! DTBB3 would be fun, I tired guys... but not to worry I've got a fun weekend planned: Vegas for 3 days then hanging with Raymond Benson in LA on Saturday and then going to see Les Miserables @ The Hollywood Bowl on Sunday. Oh and Joe's in for dinner as well. I can't wait! And don't worry... I'll take LOTS of pics while I see you all! Fred, if your wife wants to come party with some girls on Thurs night let her know that I've got VIP at RISQUE in Paris (10pm) and I'd love for her to join that night if she wants. Girls only, sorry boys have to pay... sucks, I know.

Also probably sometime on Friday my friend Rosy and I are going to check out the Titanic Exhibition (http://www.tropicana...ent_titanic.asp) and we're going to TRY and do it during your down time if we can work it out cause John wants to come check it out as well. So if you're interested in that KIT with myself or John that day.

Allrighty. So, we have just finished with the schedule with the exception of the Medical Certification, this year! Just to let you all know we should have a jam-packed, fun filled, daring adventure!! We are starting this shin-dig off with a tight schedule, with some slack coming on the actual weekend days. So you are welcome to do what you will and when. However, we would hate for anyone to miss any of the plans we have in store for them!!!

Again, participants may choose to do what they will with their time at DTBB, but do keep in mind that we, as staff, will keep to the schedule that is provided.
