Greetings,
A few months before the Xday Drill, we devised a loose
plan. We would
combine forces with another mighty cooking camp and
become a steaming
juggernaut of food. Revs Jim and John's camp tends
to prepare more solid,
hearty meals while the Pressure/Joyce camp leans toward
comfort food. Both
camps are very well outfitted and what one camp may
lack, the other camp
has.
Our goal was a simple one. We would prepare outrageous
meals and invite
everyone who has ever given us slack to join us in eating.
Some people play
musical instruments, some rant, so many people share
their talents at Xday
and we wanted to share ours; we cook.
In exchange, we were rewarded with some of the finest
Yeti folk to grace a
dinner party. While the food was quite good (if I do
say so myself), the
real joy were our guests without whom it simply would
have been just another
meal. It was a genuine pleasure to have had the opportunity
to break bread
with you all.
To me, a large element of Xday has always been food.
I hope to see a day
where gluttony will take its rightful place among all
of the other sins of
The Drill.
For those of you who missed it or were booted out (slack
vampires were
unwelcome), here are some of the items we prepared:
Freshly baked cranberry nut bran muffins
Amazing non-fat Western omelets w/ sage turkey sausage
Scrambled eggs and salmon
Tortellini and meatball soup
Deep fried turkey, corn, fried regular and sweet potatoes, salad
Fresh homemade doughnuts
Salmon filets, steamed asparagus, stuffed portabellas,
marinated shrimp,
salad
Jerked Chicken (with much thanks to Rev. Chuck Roast)
And of course, the coffee and espresso ran in rivers,
as did really good
beer. There was always something to munch on in our
camp this year and we
were happy to entertain a steady stream of visitors.
I believe I can speak for the rest of my partners when
I say I sincerely
hope that we were able to enhance everyone's slack as
much as you all have
enhanced ours. We're already looking forward (and planning)
to do it again
next year.
Slack!

Again my thoughts turn to my cherished dream, The Diverter,
trademark.
A small valve in the neck which, when turned, diverts
food being
swallowed into a plastic sack rather than the eater's
stomach --
allowing TRUE gluttony as never imagined even by Satan
Himself.
Unfortunately, my fellow SubGenii always shush me about
this marvelous
idea. Their silly Earth Farm morals and ethics quail
at the logic of
it. In their squeamishness they are blind to the obvious
benefits. The
masticated food could be removed from the sack and either
re-eaten
later or, perhaps, sold to the poor very cheaply. Think
of the boost to
the economy if the rich could eat AS MUCH AS THEY COULD
AFFORD. Even
the middle class would be able to eat junk ALL DAY without
fear of
congestive heart failure, and could bid for the chewed
food of
celebrities. The poor would no longer need teeth.
I bring this up over and over. A potential revolution
in
conservationism and economics. Yet I am mocked and derided
for it.
I wished I could have eaten those meals forever, is
why I mention it
this time.

The decadent later Romans had a place called a vomitorium;
guess why. Admission
was restricted to the over-rich.

I wonder how a modern chain would market
Vomitorium fast-food restaurant franchises?
- Drive-Thru vomiting
- Kids' Vomit special meals
- Eat from and vomit into the same styrofoam
container
- Ipecac sauces
- "Stop 'n' Eat 'n' Throw Up 'n' Go"
- "McGurgitate" "Burger Hurl"
"Chicken Pukeria"
- "Blarp in the Box" "Carl's Bulimia
Jr."
Enemariums will be the wave of the future.
