Roxy Raves for June 4
There must be 50 ways to use your Roxy:
You get the front and back, Jack; Think up a new plan, Stan; A party for your boy, Joy, Just set your mind free; No need to fuss Gus,
You don’t need to discuss much; I’ll just drop off the key, Lee, Just let you mind be free; How about your next AGM, Gem; A private movie date, Nate; A family re-union Newton; A holiday slide show, Moe, Your latest artwork, Flo; It’s no big deal Neil, just set your thoughts free. A CD release party, Marty, An anniversary with Harry, Mary; A stag for Jim, John, A bridal shower for Nicky, Rikki. Just set your imagination free. A PowerPoint display, Fay. A chick flick with your friends, Gwen. A Harry Potter party with the kids, Sid. Horror movie in the dark Mark. Your doc film premiere, dear, Your band’s first show, Joe. A brainstorming day with the boss, Hoss. Teambuilding session with your crew, Drew. Just set a new goal, Joel ...
OK, OK, OK, I’ll stop now. Whew, one could get carried away with all that rhyming stuff, Gruff, but enough is enough is enough. Anyway you must get the idea by now.
Let’s all have some more fun with the Roxy, only $25/hour, special deals for a whole day, call me we’ll find a way, e-mail and have your say – oops. Contact theroxy@shaw.ca and create your own good time and I’ll promise not to rhyme, fine, in time ... it’s not a crime ... OK, I’ll put that aside ... and ... Gabriola will provide!
