Semiquincentennial

Is that the name we’re going with in 2026? I hope not, because it’s sucks. There must be something better.

You think people will still be using napkins in the year 2026? Or is this mouth-vacuum thing for real.

The fleece anniversary?

[Longhornstampede 3186]

It will be the anniversary where Texas sends out invitations to 10 other states and each one of those 10 piggybacks 4 other states (because they're family), except Florida. Florida only asks 3, but Puerto Rico jumps into the car at the last minute. They drink up all the booze at the bar but things are kept going when everyone pools their money together and sends Utah, the only sober state, to HEB on a beer run. At the end of the night, after several spirited arguments and one drunk fight, everyone leaves for home carrying extra plates full of food covered with aluminum foil.

Someone should organize a Celebration of Specialness. Maybe invite David Byrne.

I have a semi right now, and debating whether or not to rub it out.

Nice. I had to record Charley Pride reading a script for a station promo.  He couldn't say "It's all part of the Sesquicentennial celebration." After the 4th take I knew it wasn't going to get better and I didn't want to insult him. "Nailed it! Thanks, Charley!" I edited the shit out of it and you could kind of understand him.
