Grounded
While perusing some of the other blogs I like to check out from time to time, I noticed there was a planned blogger get-together in Washington D.C. involving several of our faithful readers. I commented how I wished the Playaz could attend, but of course requested the prerequisite airfare required for the Playaz to attend any social gathering (we are in such high demand that we can't be expected to travel all across the country on our own dime).
It was then that the Rock Creek Rambler astutely pointed out that it was unlike the Playaz not to have their own private plane. He was, in fact, correct, however I did not thoroughly explain the situation.
The Playaz do have their own private jet, a Gulfstream IV. The problem is, Tac crashed the G-4 into our swimming pool over Playaz Ball, and it is now in the shop. Apparently, Tac was trying to impress some ladies on the beach and came in a bit too hot and was forced to crash into the pool. Needless to say, it has grounded the Playaz. We of course receive offers from President Bush to ride the Air Force and Marine One's, but he is busy these days so we don't want to bother him.
Just wanted to clear up any misconception that the Playaz definitely are not flying "business class" when they travel. It's just that Tac got carried away and the G-4 will be fixed any day now once the ball-bearings come in. They had to order them from Germany because they are a special kind of ball-bearing.

Did you check The Google to order some new ones? :)
You mean The Google can be used for non-criminal tracking activities?
My only question is, who are the giants that need deck chairs the size of jet engines? Just how tall are you guys?
It is obviously a very big pool with very large chairs. Please remember also, the photo was taken at a strange angle.
Correct, Bon.
As I mentioned on Kathryn's blog, it is an extremely large pool. The perspective of the photo also gives the illusion of things appearing larger than they really are(although we had extremely large chairs made - I gave the chair specs to the manufacturer and put ' instead of " beside the measurements)
I've heard you might also be able to find creme de violette on The Google?
Large deck chairs = big pimpin'
How can we get on the VIP list for the next playaz ball?
Yes, I as well would be interested in the VIP list. I have an overwhelming urge to snort a large amount of baking soda.
It's pretty much impossible. There is a 10 year waiting list, and that is assuming we would even allow anyone outside the Playaz circle to come to PB.
Your best hope is probably when the Playaz take PB on the road, away from HQ.
We have discussed Chicago as a possibility for the 10th annual PB. New York. The Carribean. D.C. could possibly make the list. We also would like to travel to Easton, PA, home of the Easton Assasin, Larry Holmes.
Even immediate family members of Playaz have been denied admission. We don't want to dilute our uniqueness.
What if I married Kenny Rogers?
Hmmmm.....I don't know if I speak for the Playaz, but if you pulled that off you would have my vote to attend.
Yes Cookie. I will make the executive Playa decision, that if you pull that off, you will be welcome with open arms!
Kenny will make you wear a mask.
No, I think Kenny wears the masks. She will simply have to apply oils to Kenny's leathery-tan skin.
