WHAT'S IN A NAME?
|
When registrations expanded, Liz Campbell
volunteered to maintain the list on a spreadsheet. Her file name was
b2osh.xls. The designation B2OSH was thus born.
|
Liz Campbell again reminiscing: "...the year it was so
very hot...about four years ago (1998), Adrian Eichhorn's dad and I were
talking one evening and discussed how nice it would be to get out on Lake
Winnebago for some fresh air. It was too late for that year. I
began discussions with the hotel almost immediately and set up the first
B2osh cruise." Thus came into being the wonderful Pioneer
Princess Cruise the evening following our party. In 2006 the Pioneer
Resort dismantled in preparation for converting to condos. The
Pioneer Princess was sold and the cruise is a wonderful memory of the
past.

BUBBA CAMP -
SOPRANOS |
From
"Weebs": What year did "Camp Bubba"
originate? Answer: 1996 in response to the beer, cigars and and
redneck jokes, sitting around the lantern in the Bubba Wimbish camp
site whiling away the evening.
The same year Wayne hung the name "Sopranos" on the close
group of friends from New Jersey and New York - and the name
fit. Elliott was following their car from the Pioneer Princess
to a bar. When they stopped for a traffic light one of the
gang jumped out of the car, pounded on the trunk, yelled: "Keep
quiet in there or I'll whack you." On their left at the
light was a patrol car, diagonally across the street a motorcycle
cop. "Guys, there is a time to joke and a time to keep it
straight." Amazingly, when they pulled into the bar
parking lot and opened the trunk, there, lying on his back with his
legs and arms in the fetal position, was Robert Mark. They
weren't joking. |

post? Contact Elliott
