GFMPH Weekend What a time!

I have to let you guys know that we all had a wonderful time at Worried Guy's home.  He is the best host ever.  We were 6 guys each from a different state.  We have the common bond of having had PCa and had very frank honest conversations but we also had a great time just enjoying getting to know each other. 

If ever you get to attend a GFMPH you should clear you callender and make every effort to attend for yourself.  I am flattered and honored that the guys voted Saturday as I was cooking Gumbo that the next gathering or meeting should be at my house in Louisiana and not exactly sure of the day yet but probably mid April...We are thinking Tax day.  April 15th.  Will let you guys know.

 

_{^{I can not express my thinks enough to Worried Guy (Jeff)  My hat is off to you.}}

 

_{^{To each of you guys that took time from your life to be there thanks to each of you.  My life is richer for having spent time with you guys.  Hope each of you make it home save.  I will fly home on Tuesday Morning early.}}

I've just been outside talking with Sonny as he reviews his maps. He's leaving this morning to continue on the GFMPH road tour.
It is too quiet here already. Come on back!

A word of protest:

I have just completed my second GFMPH weekend in western NY. I have a few complaints to make. The whole thing was one big religious event from beginning to end. I kept trying to invoke Rule 11, but I was silenced by religious zealots. The entire event was marred by proselytizing.

First, The Penile discussions were positively Jewish in their intent. I could tell that if we were not circumcised (which, thank god, I am) we would not belong to the group. The proselytizing to become "fully jewish" was enormous. I did notice one guy looking forlornly at his private area, clearly disenfranchised because of his lack of this ultimate religious covenant.

Second, We were all forced to take communion. Each member was poured a glass of wine and we ceremoniously drank it after some words of intent...I'm sure it was prayers or something like that.

Then Saturday night, under the guise of eating dessert, we were forced to pariticipate in native american rites and rituals around a conflagration in a wooded glen where trances were induced and smudging by smoke was again forced upon me. I'm sure as I look back now, that there was even nudity involved. In fact, I'm sure of it - oh, some of the men made a vague attempt to hide their nudity with a few pieces of cloth, but let me assure you, under that cloth, every single man there was naked, in a trance, worshipping the fire and trying to commune with spirits. It was Wiccan, pagan, and Druidic all at the same time.

Then, if that was not enough, We had a speaking in tongues. Admittedly, it was only two of the members, but we were forced to listen to this Rhapsodic hysteria. To add more blasphemy, one of the participants claimed to be sexually aroused by this pentecostal talk. i was in fear for my virtue.

Then Saturday afternoon was spent with some member forcing their meditation time on us. They closed their eyes, became imobile and were in another realm for as long as an hour. this Hindu behavior was forced upon us even though some of us wanted to engage in secular, scientific talk.

I clearly stated Rule 11 again and again, but my freedom of speech was trampled and i was proselytized nearly every moment of the weekend. My civil rights were violated and i am going to ask the moderators to Lock the GFMPH weekend so that no one will ever have to put up with having all this religion forced down their gulletts at such a vulnerable moment. I have called the ACLU and am taking legal action.

So you not gonna talk about the blood sacrifices of animals with cloven hooves? Combined with fire or charcoal it's usually performed over an open fireand accompanied by barley grain drinking and sometimes followed by pryrogic purges of the stomach.,all supposedly done in a rite of brotherhood. Lol

OMG!!!! I completely forgot about the animal sacrifices. Thank you for refreshing my memories - I had clearly blocked the horrors from my mind.

The tribal leader apparently murdered a harmless chipmunk and fed it to the spririts of the forest just as we arrived. The weekend was bathed in bloodshed. I feared that my blood was next... so i played along with the savages until I could escape. Call PETA now!!!

Traumatically yours

Jeff, I can personally attest to the dastardly deeds of the aforementioned Alvin and his band of furry friends. No one, animal or person, should be allowed to wreck the havoc that has been brought forth to such a great icon classic as a 1970 Barracuda.

Their crime has been documented and their fate sealed. I can also personally attest as an eye witness, as to the accuracy and abilities of"THE ONE" called upon to dispatch them to the great chipmunk world beyond.

Sonny

Paul,

You will be sanctioned at the next tribal meeting of the sacred order of GFMPH. You have violated rule number 2011. The reason we have so many rules is so that you will not divulge the proceedings of our meetings.

I am glad you didn't mention the requirement to not wear pants so that those with continence issues didn't feel bad.

Goodlife

James the plans are in motion. My wife is on board to host the ladies in a different location some 8 miles from my house. That way the can grow their friendships like we have. Jeff is a real hard act to follow.
