Andy and Scott both wrote and posted invitations. In my usual "style", I did a cut-and-paste job.

You've been waiting a long time, we know, and we've finally been able to
secure a location. Sorry it's taken so long, but, we ASSURE you, this is
the FIRST opportunity we've had. (That, of course, means that you must
attend or die. If you choose to die, please do it somewhere where it
won't ruin the coffee. Thank you for playing, and please leave a message
at the sound of the Coleburn.)
WHEN: 7PM-ish, April 26th, 1997 A.D.
WHERE: The Palatial Abode of Smerp, 5015 Dunwoody Trail,
Raleigh, NC. Directions forthcoming, but it's near
Kevin P. Neal's house (across from the Western Ave.
K-Mart), in any event. You WILL have to park on DeBoy;
that is certain.
WHAT: GeekFest VIII, Bohemian-style. This means that you
will wear all black clothing, grow a goatee, and bring
TERRIBLE, HORRIBLE, BAD-BAD-MAKE-GURK-SAD poetry,
particularly about the moon. For suggestions, email
Andy Simmons (dasimmon@unity.ncsu.edu) and offer him
your first-born calf. Andy Damick and Chas Parisher
grew beards for this, so you can, too. Even you, Jill.
HOW: Use your imagination. (No, not THAT, Dukes.)
WHO: Anyone who hears of it. This means YOU AND ALL YOUR
FRIENDS, IF YOU HAVE ANY LEFT AFTER THEY HEARD THAT
YOU ATTENDED A GEEKFEST, YOU GEEK!!11!!1
Yes, we KNOW that this is right before exams for many of you, but, trust
us, YOU WILL NEED THE FEW HOURS' BREAK THAT THIS AFFORDS. It WILL
increase your concentration when you study. It WILL increase your
relaxation as you take tests. JUST LOOK AT THIS MODEL:

See what we mean?
So, drag your honey (and your -honey-, hoo-ha) to the 'Fest, and we'll all
gather to hear the terror of each other's poetry, muzak, evil USENET
stories, and what REALLY happened to Lawrence Wobker's last girlfriend in
the mud bath at that "health care" spa. Woo.
