STEPH DEROSA: HANGING AT TODAY'S WINTERFEST >>>
Recently I met up with Jason McClellan who deserves the honorary “first guest†at this week’s Dinner with DeRosa dinner table. Not that there is any true system as to how the dinner guests are usually ordered, but if there were â€" he’d be the first guest. He’s chosen because he endured a conversation that will (hopefully) give structure to this next week’s Trouble with DeRosa. He’s also first because he didn’t punch me in the face or run away crying, which is what I’m used to most people doing after they meet me, so he’s cool. Check out my interview with Jason in the Trouble with DeRosa column in Thursday’s issue of the Weekly Volcano.
Becky, Theresa, and Noelle were the suckers that let me into Tacoma Winterfest today, where I found the rest of today’s dinner guests. They most likely got fired for letting me in, so I suppose I owe them an imaginary Internet dinner. Thanks, ladies. And thank you, Angela Jossy and crew, for hosting an event supporting local merchants.
Evan Purcell and Doug Mackey took the Winterfest stage as the “Tacoma Singers.†Seriously? Is that their new band name? What happened to their Prairie Dogs band?
"We're the only singers in Tacoma," claimed Doug. "If you hear of any others please let us know. They will be instant band members."
Although they sang serious songs (they're freakin' talented), it was hard to take them seriously and not laugh at almost everything they said. What a couple of fun guys with great personalities. This is an extremely valuable trait that I respect more than a huge manly pant-bulge. Oh, leave me alone. Men look at my breasts, I look at their bulges. What’s fair is fair.
Tom Michael of Seven Muses â€" I took your picture. You acted confused when I asked to take your picture. This is normal, Tom Michael. Most men are discombobulated after I look at them and ask them to take their picture. This comes from my superhuman beauty, which burns the eye’s retina and triggers misfires of brainwaves. Don’t worry; you’re not the first.
Greg Murphy is invited to Dinner with DeRosa this week. Ever since Curt Cobain’s death led to Nirvana’s demise, we’ve been hurting for some team spirit. Oh, wait, that was "Teen Spirit." Nevermind then.
Mangiamo!
