The
Invitation:
Oh Dear
Friends,
We Observe that it is Our
turn to host wine night. The Occurrence will happen this Friday February
7, at 7:30 O'clock. We look forward to the Opportunity to
present Wines with the letter O. We Opine that it will be an Occasion
of Obvious fun filled with wonderful food, including Olives, and
wines with Only appealing Odors. We are aware that the Onus
is On us to present Optimum wines, and hopefully
no Outrageous Ones. It is an Outstanding Occasion for
Oenophiles. Only One person per household needs to
reply with the number of people coming.
Obsequiously yours, Andy
and Elizabeth
The
Response(s):
Overjoyed, is the Obvious expression of Our feelings for the Opportunity
to Overtly quaff the Opulent Offerings you have Ordered for Our upcoming Outing
this Friday. Both Linda and I Obdurately hold that all Occasions
involving vino and Othoniel stimulation are Open for Objective Observations by
all. Our Opus, no, Operatic renditions of Oldies abound with Ostentatious
Oxonian Ovations. Overall, it should be fun, Our Order shall be for two. Wayne and Linda
We would like to take this
Opportunity to attend this Occurrence of Wine Night. The Mealey's will be
Obligated to have three in Observance at this Occasion at the McDonald house
that is like a ship in the Offing. Optimistically Yours, Bob and Karen
Okay…it appears that the Only
Outstanding reply is Ours. After Outlining the plan to the Objects of my
affection, I Obtained the final count of SIX, One of which has Often been found
Obtaining Objects from a couch. Over and Out…the Vortherms/McBee
clan
