Ok guys, since the site is down and we can't get ahold of Jacob (the admin). We arn't sure when it will be back up.

Did anybody copy the info for the X-mas party?

In any case, the party will be on 12-9-2006 at SLR. This will be a potluck.

We will have a best decorated Xterra contest, and the prize will be... well we don't know yet, maybe just a special title or nickname.

Any ideas on a time preference?

I would be in favor of an early afternoon type of thing. Say, 12:00 or 1:00. Not in favor of an evening (dark) thing.

I agree with Dan, mid day works well.

I seem to recall at least this much of what was posted for food so far:

1. Chris and Emily - some sort of desert
2. Frank & Heather - antipasto plate
3. Dan (AVXterrra) - some sort of cooked animal, probably on a stick.
4. Spencer - something Chinese
5. Jason (WolfmanX) - some sort of stew?

That's all I can remember.

Wait, the Xmas party isn't at Cary's house?????

ok the party's cool and all, but like when's the calico run dude? Trying to make plans if it's gonna happen!

G...calico is going to be 12/16-17

Earlier the better for me on 12/9…wifes company party is that night.

BTW where is SLR place nowadays?

I have a gift we can use for the contest or draw numbers for that was donated.

I also vote for a lunchish timish thing. I'll bring some sort of salad and my family (total of four people).

Brian, can you put up a post on Calico?

SLR is here:

150 West Mindanao St.
Bloomington, CA 92376

Ok so noon is the meet time. Please post up if you will be coming, and what you will be bringing.

Hey, what about a gift exchange? Thoughts?

me and elliott will be there. i will be bringing a potato dish

wanna raffle it off and all the money from it can go to a new hosting company

HAHA there we go!

What up party people! Hola from Colorado. Hope everyone is doing great!

So, if we have a head count by that Saturday, I can bring wings and ribs. (I have a client that'll hook us up. They do these big to-go packs that come with flavored wings, ribs, salad, bleu cheese slaw, chips and dip.)

See you all later,

Bobby

I likey!! ribs, YUM!!!!

Did somebody say wings? I could do some wings.

Sounds like Bobby's just about got the entire party covered.

Hope the road trip is going well.

I like the idea of a raffle for whatever it is that Brian has, with the money going towards web hosting.

OK guys I am trying to confirm everything, and I need all of your help! Can you all email, call, or contact individuals you think might want to come to this event? Let them know we are using the XOC forum, and post here if they are coming.

I need to update SLR on # of people etc. He will prolly be showing the new 05+ lift stuff and giving a small tour. So 05 guys this will be good!!

So far I have:

1. Chris and Emily - some sort of desert
2. Frank & Heather - antipasto plate
3. Dan (AVXterrra) - some sort of cooked animal, probably on a stick.
4. Spencer - something Chinese
5. Jason (WolfmanX) - some sort of stew?
6. Mitch & Family - Chilli filled donuts
7. Elliot & Davey - Papas
8. Brian (toolbox) - ???????
9. Chris (FrontierFox) - Eat-able stuff
10. Jeff (Sk8tigger) - Pizza
11. Tom (pigcat) - ????????
12. csbishop - ????????
13. Bobby B. - RIBS BABY!!!
14. Jacob - ????????
15. Laurie & Doug - Cookies

I NEED YOUR HELP!!! Contact as many people as you can please!! The site being down is killing me here.

Great, just one more thing to spend money on. Maybe Dan & I can get a group discount going on lifts; we could both use more ground clearance, especially after the JTNP run.

Animals on a stick and chili filled donuts... man, I wish I could make it. Have fun.

Chili filled donuts ??? MMMMmmmmm

Did you list who's bringing toilet paper and pepto bismol yet? A strong suggestion.

WWOooooooo !!!!

MGJ

Anyone try to contact Rachael or Betzy?

If you have the contact info, then please do. Ask them to contact anyone they can think of as well.

I left a message for Betzy (if she's checking voice mail on Eric's phone).

Also spoke with Larry Gallarza (he can't make it) and Tom (Pigcat). He sounded like he would be there.

I stopped by slr today to take a look at the shop and Jason's X he told me about the X-mas get together I would like to go but hav'nt been on any of the runs or other group meeting's yet.But would like to meet everybody is it open to everybody?

I go by csbishop on the socal site.

yes it's open to every one, in fact it would be a great opportunity for new people to meet existing club members and not have to worry about a run being brian stock friendly or actual stock friendly

Jason, sorry, I don't have any peoples contact information, best I could do is PM people on these forums. I lost all my phone contact information when I switched carriers.

Yep!! Everyone is welcome.

Have an idea of what you might be bringing?

I'm in and bringing wings, ribs and sides.

I think I have Spencer's (ultra PC) and Rachael's numbers in my phone. I can try and call them from the road today.

Time to head home; man, how time flies.

I think Doug and I will be able to make it. Just need to check all the calendars.
I'll plan to bring cookies! We need some dessert to go along with all this MEAT.

Laurie
(sorry it took me awhile to get on here and post. I needed to become an XOC registered member.) BTW...I'm working on getting the photos from the Anza-Borrego trip from my sister. Once I do...i'll post em up.

Laurie mentioned the same thing I was thinking, that we need more dessert items (chili filled donuts don't count).

So, I'll switch from salami & cheese antipasto to Julian Apple Pies.

I could bring sodas and drink's or ?

Sounds good!!

Ok, the updated list:

1. Chris and Emily - some sort of desert
2. Frank & Heather - antipasto plate
3. Dan (AVXterrra) - some sort of cooked animal, probably on a stick.
4. Spencer - something Chinese
5. Jason (WolfmanX) - some sort of stew?
6. Mitch & Family - Chilli filled donuts
7. Elliot & Davey - Papas
8. Brian (toolbox) - ???????
9. Chris (FrontierFox) - Eat-able stuff
10. Jeff (Sk8tigger) - Pizza
11. Tom (pigcat) - ????????
12. csbishop - Drinks/Soda
13. Bobby B. - RIBS BABY!!!
14. Jacob - ????????
15. Laurie & Doug - Cookies

Does anybody have Blue Leader's info? He may be interested in coming to the potluck even though he may not come on runs anymore.

Animal crackers and cool-aid for me if mitch is bringing the chilli filled.

Yeah I'll message/call BL and Snoopy and tell them about the event.

Wolf...know if the SLR crew could do some quick welding that day?

Come awn now mitch how about I bring the krispy kreme and you can freeze some

Sure thing, I'll try to keep them frozen till they get there. I will bring rolls since salads and potatoes and meats seem to be covered. So, rolls and Otter Pops. (I wonder if they're made with real otters?)

If they are made with real otters I'm sure Rachel will recognize the taste. Oh wait, that was chipmunks. (Guess you had to be at the NR-JTNP campsite to follow that one.)

Jason, please switch my listing to Apple Pies.

I sent messages to Edgar (Ed_monster) and PaulXyZ through the 2nd Gen X website, but have not heard anything yet.

Bobby, if you have Betzy's home phone could you try to call? I've left a message on Eric's cell, but she may not be checking that.

Frank, I only have Eric's cel. Hopefully Betzy is checking it. I've got Internet access for a few more hours, maybe I'll see if they're listed.

I reached Rachael and she's going to be out of town for work. She talked to Spencer, though, and he said he's going.

We should be good to go for the Xmas Party. Looking forward to hanging out with the group again...

What else needs to be brought? We'll bring it.

Davey told me about this...as of now, I'm 50/50. Work + planning a holiday party the following night.

Wow I havn't post on here forever, and lost my password. But after 20 min of research, i figure it out.

I notice that no one is bring drinks, so I will change from Something Chinese to Drinks.

Please post up your favorite drink, and if i like it too, I will buy it. I will bring plates, and cups.

Hi Guys,

I was able to get a hold of FrankB by email and he told me it wasnt just me that couldnt log into SCCX.com lol Anyway, Im in for Saturday. It'll just be me since my wife will be working. I can bring some type of dessert or a mexican dish. Let me know what you guys prefer and if you decide on mexican, spicy or not

SPICY MEXICAN

i agree! SPICY!!!!

You guys!!! I thought you had forgotten about me, but you haven't!! With the website being down I had no idea you were trying to get a hold of me and I don't have Eric's cell phone, he took it with him. BTW, those of you that have the little fancy card with my picture... Bobby! Mitch! Frank!... all my contact info is on the back! ha ha ha!! LOL

I work in Temecula that night, so if I plan everything right I might be able to go. I still have to do the 95,000 inspection before then, so we'll see. Put me on the list tentatively, I will bring my delicious buffalo chicken dip!

Betzy,

Nice to hear from you, hope you can be at the party.

I don't have one of the cards with your contact info, maybe you can bring some with you on Saturday.

Doh! Forgot about that. But in my defense, I was a few states away.

turns out billy isnt going to make it. he is in the "big brother" program.

Ok guys, everything is still on track, looking forward to seeing you all Saturday!

What do you want to drink???

If no one reply, I am just going to bring tap water, plastic cups, and plates

I'm not quite clear as to the location. Yahoo maps can't find it, and Google maps takes me to 150 W. Mindanao in Bloomington but at a different zip code than what was shown (92316 vs. 92376).

Is the location just SOUTH of I-10 off the Riverside exit (a little west of I-215)?

Maybe someone who has been there could post directions from I-10.

Thanks.

Yes, it is just SOUTH of I10 and just WEST of the 215.

Just go out past the meth labs and head north towards the ... meth labs.

That would take you to Thermal

Mountain Dew, Cactus Cooler, Root Beer (not Barqs). How's that.

mmmmm cactus cooler and rootbeer (A&W)

I work in Thermal.

Updated list:

1. Chris and Emily - some sort of desert
2. Frank & Heather - antipasto plate

20. Guywith05frontier - Bucket o' chicken

got another guy comming with an 05 frontier.

he is bring a bucket of chicken.

you work in a meth lab? I guess they need IT support too

Hey Chris, any chance of getting a couple of fire sticks at the party?

would you guys want me to bring 2 8 foot table and 10 chairs?

Good idea Spencer. None of us will be able to fit a long table in the back of an X. Those open truck beds come in handy some times.

Bobby,

Whatever you do, don't use Map Quest this time. It will direct you towards the meth labs north of the freeway instead of south.

That would be handy. I was going to buy some stuff otherwise.

actually tables that fold in half are handy

Oh that's funny.

There is about as much chance of Xtoolbox hosting at his house! If he did then he could not show up hours late because he had to lead a late Xcursion like he did for years. My wife considered it very rude when he showed up every year hours late to our house.


I hosted:
SCCXmas 2000
SCCXmas 2001
SCCXmas 2002




If work had not messed with my schedule at the last minute I would have hosted it in 2003. Twitch stepped up an hosted!


Krisjon... how many times did you or anyone else host SCCXmas.

Oh that's right! There was NO SCCXmas 2004 or SCCXmas 2005? Oh that's right! It never happened! Everyone talks but no one does.

It took bashing CALMINI,

gushing over another manufacture and a sucking up to that manufacture to get something going for 2006.

Man... WolfmanX what did you do to get SLR to install all the stuff on your Xterra? WolfmanX what did you do to get SLR to host SCCXmas 2006 for you? I guess your place was too small to host it yourself? But hey maybe Xtoolbox can get some free welding done at SCCXmas 2006.
Xtoolbox will never host it! Brian gets everyone else to do everything else for him. Then he usual steps in and takes credit for it. Xtoolbox couldn't be bothered in 2004 or 2005. Neither could anyone else for that matter in the new SCCX.

BTW Don\'t Drink the Kool Aid

Hey everyone, look! The ghost of Christmas past showed up and he's pissed.

Go away, Cary.

Or at least come up with something more original to post that your usual drivel.

Man. I can't beleive that our Xmas party thread is going to the ALR. That's sad.

Let me say this again.........Only a lil bitch airs out their dirty laundry in a public forum.

Happy Holidays Cary,

Just so you know, I was initially the primary contact person for the SLR/SCCX Christmas party thing. And in fact, Spenser offered to host it, it was his idea. I thought it was a gracious offer and presented it to the rest of the club. It was agreed upon and Wolfman offered to be the point man since he was already in contact with Spenser on a regular basis due to the fact that his X was at SLR getting work done. Just so you know.

I looked at the pictures you posted and it appears you and your family were wonderful hosts and the parties were very festive. It is a standard I hope we can achieve this year.

Now then, to the seemy underbelly. I was not a part of SCCX when it turned sour for you or anyone else. I do feel sorry for you since I enjoy spending time with this particular group of people and I appreciate the different dynamics they bring to the club. I pity you that you cannot, especially during the Christmas season, put all this behind you. I pity you that you allow this to consume you to the point that you feel the need to attempt to ruin something that is special to others. Perhaps its time to either let it go or get some councelling.

Anyway, Merry Christmas to you and your family Cary. May the Spirit be with you and brighten your holiday season.

Good tip frank, high noon it is Mapquest has the wrong directions so use google maps for directions, located at:
http://tinyurl.com/ydgqxx

gift will be given away, tell you how at the event

I'm bringing:

Thanks for the directions Brian. Look forward to seeing you all at the party! We'll bring:

Hey Cary! Good to hear from you.

Why don't you come on down so we can all talk in person? There will be plenty of food for you.

Hope you and your family have a great Holiday Season.

Yak Nuggets! At first I didn't recognize them because usually we eat them on a stick.

Mmmmmmm. Lamb fries. I hope you snipped 'em real high.

Come on now, those are Rocky Mountain Oysters with a side of "secret sauce" for dipping.

Hey, Merry Christmas everyone! We had a great time at the party. Thanks to everyone who was there and special thanks to Spenser for hosting the gig. You guys rock! Oh, and thanks to Dan for the jump start. Now I'm going to go out to the driveway and air down so I can try out my wife's new air compressor. Happy Holidays everyone!

That was fun. Thanks to everyone who contributed, and to Spencer for hosting.

Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays to everyone who could not make it.

Great pic Jason, Me and Em enjoyed our selfs quite a bit. It was nice to just hang out and enjoy each others company. Good turn out and Spencer was a great host.

PS: who ever brought/made those chicken enchiladas, they were bomb digity yo

PPS: Mitch and Jason, wanna get some e'pels tomorrow morning?

had a great time everyone! glad to see you all, meet a few of you, and get a chance to mingle with a few i havent before. thanks to spencer for hosting/advice. hopefully ill be out with you soon now that i have a working suspension

E'Pels sounds good. When and where?

Great time everyone. Too many people to thank but a special thanks to Spencer for hosting, Jason for suggesting the location, and Brian for bringing the door prize. Mitch, is the Mrs. going to let you borrow that for Xcursions?

Street fair at the college, 9am? We're going to church at 9:30 so it would work for us to stop by on the way. If that would work for you we can meet you there.

Chris, I'll do my best to be there.

Dan, she gave it to me. Can you believe that? I'm the luckiest man on earth.

WE'll keep our eyes out for ya.

Or I guess we could go there closer to lunch time I thought they were there till noon but I guess they're there till 2 or 3.

Good times and great seeing everyone.

Thanks again to Spencer for the venue.

It was all GOOD The food was fantastic, Bobby's Catering truck is something I could get used to

Thanks again to SLR I was impressed Wolf, Mitch for getting things rolling and everbody that particpated for the great times.
