Divrsional, this seems like just an advertisement to me. Is there anything special about this site that I haven't noticed?

Hey, I'm Kate and I am a taurus.
I love tomatoes and
black-capped chickadees renting out cabins.

it looks fun, but it's too expensive...woodstock really has been booming lately, with tons of cityfolk ; > moving up there.

Hmmm, let's see...Lazy Meadow is 130 miles from New York City.

Roundtrip cab fare would come to about $545.41
(including late-hour surcharge and optional 15% tip).

Door cover and drinks at the bar on Avenue B
run by Handsome Dick Manitoba would amount to--

--Aw, the hell with it.
Living a punk rock lifestyle these days is just too expensive.

Oh, I got the B-52's gimmick. It just didn't seem to warrant a FPP post, that's all.

But Smart Dalek, it's only 15 miles to the Looooooove Shaaaack.

Jpoulos, Orange Goblin is in his teens, I believe. I'm 30 - plenty old enough to sing Love Shack word for word.

But.... New York?

Isn't this place supposed to be down the At-laaaan-ta Highway?

You'd think she would have opened a motel in Idaho. Sheesh. Think they serve Rock Lobster? </late to the party>

Hey! I know Love Shack! Sorry if I'm shouting, but I figured you guys forgot to turn your hearing aids on :p

The Catskills? Oy! Next thing you know, they'll be restoring Grossingers!

Oh look, Orange Junior made a clever comment.

Punk.

I'm getting nothing but static in my attic. I wonder if Kate's Love Shack gets Channel Z???

Just look for the faded sign at the side of the road...

Do the rooms in the Love Shack have Love Sacks? (Warning: another advertisement linked to a mild pun)
posted by dhacker at 6:36 PM on November 12, 2003


Okay, it's far too late to make an honest comment after all this horsing around, and maybe it's just me, but I really dig Kate's decor. I'd go! Although I don't think I'd pony up the $7,000ish in cab fare to get from here to there.

majick: JetBlue will get you to Kennedy for about $150, at which point we can fit about six or eight MeFites into my Cherokee for the 2 hour trip.

Do you suppose Kate cooks a turkey on T'giving?

Doubt it.

Maybe she molds one out of tofu, similar to the Spam Lamb concept on M*A*S*H*.
