Y'all should sponsor a Villa-SHAKES celebration. Drink all you want and sleep it off too.

I'm not exactly sure what Vee's policy is concerning Villa sleep-overs.

"Clothing optional, but frowned upon..."

I remember the days when the toxic five used to keep a healthy amount of riff-raff going on at Vee's Villa...

(What were we called? "Toxic Five" isn't it, I don't think...)

Evening everyone, how are you all?

Semi, could I trouble you for a glass of chilled izzy water please? Just a little ice and a slice of lime please?

Thanks, I'll be over in the corner tinkling on the old joanna. Anything you'd like me to play?

While you're thinking I'm going to give a quick rendition of Amelia by the sublime Joni Mitchell

"I was driving accross the burning desert
when I spotted six jet planes
Leaving six white vapor trails accross the bleak terrain
It was a hexagram of the heavens
It was the strings of my guitar
Amelia, it was just a false alarm.."

Izzy water? Do you mean fizzy water?

<Clap, clap, clap> Bravo!!!

Belinda, could you possibly do Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah"? It's perfect for the coloratura soprano I know you have, but don't trot out very often.

oh Fizzy water would be fine, thanks, you're a champ!

While I'm here at the piano, is there anything you'd like to hear?

I think that's what we've been doing all along!

Vee, here's a rum and coke for you to enjoy while listening to Belinda.

I have that embossed in gold on a small plaque at the entryway!

Thanks Semi! Why don't you pour yourself one and join me? It's not often we get the chance to relax and listen to B's dulcet tones anymore.

Oh, I thought the Villa just accomodated CK and Lou's drunken binges. Glad there's room for everyone.

I'll pour myself a diet rite raspberry soda and join you Vee. Let's sit by the picture window and enjoy the view of the snow on Mount Eruptus.

There's plenty of room at the Villa, Misty, though we do specialize in taking care of CK, Lou, and others' drunken binges.

Sounds wonderful! Here, I'll scoot over to make room for you.

It's nice to sit and rest once in a while. How's the roof coming along?

Got the temporary repairs done but it looks like it may be a few months before they're able to start the replacement. Everyhting else pretty much needs to wait on that so I'll be "under construction" for a while I'm afraid.

A wish from the Serendipity Singers (back in the 60's),

"Oh, no, don't let the rain come down
My roof's got a hole in it and I might drown
Oh, yes, my roof's got a hole in it and I might drown"

Haven't heard that name in eons!

Acutally, that was probably 50's - pre rock and roll.

Time to invoke the Empress' protection once again. Despite the craziness going on in Legion World, you will always find a safe haven at SHAKES, where politics, war, schemes, lust for power, etc. will never intrude upon our peaceful, albeit banal, existence.

Where has been lately? Don't make me come to Spain and find ya!
