Hard to know but I'd go to the one who looks the most cash flush...you know, Hawaiian shirt, pressed Levi's, silver tipped boots...that'd be the one with the 17-year-old Toyota truck, not the one with a brand new fire engine red loaded 4WD Dodge dually.

So, this legendary annual retreat...set to what kind of music? Souza, Thrash Metal, Techno, Country Swing? The libations? Gin, Rum, Bud Light? Meals? Burritos, refried beans, catfish tacos? Organizational format? Parliamentarian, Thunderdome, Medieval melee? Am curious how you get things done so well and am always open to a better way to organize my own life. I'll go first (at the moment): ABBA/Orff, Coffee, Oatmeal/Metamucil, MilSpeak.

Thrash metal, coffee, tamales... and if anyone so much as mentions parliamentary procedure or "Robert's Rules of Order" SO HELP ME I WILL CUT THEIR HEART OUT WITH A BLUNT SPORK.

Ar-r-rgh. I can help. Had this commissioned 14 years ago. A Canadian blacksmith made this Battle SPQRK for me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k51lGAdMzYs

My phone will be loaded with lots of jazz, free culture music, and mandopop. And I'm bringing my bluetooth speaker. If I disappear, it will likely be due to lack of musical taste in my victims... er, my co-workers. :D

Mel Gibson is doing a TV show about the Great Siege of Malta. So... will a certain anthology series return?

I AM SPORKATUS!

Which is to say, Spartacus, but armed with a titanium spork.

Yes, it's a thing. We live on a weird timeline.
