Announcement: Fob Officially Sanctions Weed

Dearest Fobs and Fofobs (Friends of Fob):

If you have not been reading official Fob Weed's blog, you should. And not just because by posting this I improve my chances of winning The Little Thumper. Because reading The Weed will improve your life.

Newly Reorganized Fob East Bay Meets

.

Tonight, I, Theric, met with new Fobs Kelly Ann and Riley and read topnotch prose and poetry. (Other members of FEB include Jane Dough and Petra, neither of whom came tonight.)

This event seems worthy of commemoration.

Consider it hereby commemorated.

New Bible Review

.

Next to Richard Cracroft, Mormondom ain't got a more revered reviewer than Jeffrey Needle (and he's not even Mormon!).

Last Saturday Petra Was Married

.

And the food was really good. Her dress was cool and men threw her in a blanket. I got sick that evening and never got around to posting about it, but it was cool. Sorry you missed it.

Unofficial FEB Partification

.

Theric and Lady Steed welcomed Petra and Melyngoch and Tolkers to their home this fine evening in celebration of delicious food. As is typical, the visitors were roped into playing baseball by the irrepressible Big O and Large S. Little Lord Steed mostly slept.

We had a deeelightful time. I was so happy to see Mel again after all these many long years and it'd been a year for Tolkers also and I hadn't seen Petra since she's been splitting her time between Communist prisons and men (cf).

Anyway, I didn't get any pictures of the exciting stuff, but I did get this, which is about as fobular as can be imagined:
