Well, here we go! A few finalinstructions regarding Saturday evening's round the countrysimultaneous screening of Night of the Lepus for those of youhardy enough, or foolish enough, to watch it in the presence of yourbuns.
At 8:45 P.M. EST, our moderator,Carolyn,willinitiate festivities by creating a new thread that will be entitled,"Rabbits Only Forum 2nd Annual Night of the LepusScreening." That will enable the rest of ustogo on-line and use that thread as our major source ofcommunication before, during, and after the screening as per the veryastute suggestion put forward by BunnyMommy a while ago. Italmost enables us to have a "chat" close toreal time, withoutincurring the high costs a telephone conference call would haveentailed. Thanks for that most excellent suggestion,BunnyMommy!
At 9:00 P.M. EST viewing will begin by starting your VCR's.People in time zones other than EST should adjust accordingly so thatwe're all watching the movie simultaneously, with our buns, if youdare! Some of the more enthusiastic viewers, both human andlagomorph, are invited to don costumes appropriate for the movie, takepictures thereof, and post on the forum as soon as possible.
Humans often portray rabbits, and rabbits humans, in an effort toconfuse the marauding rabbits one may expect to assail your domicileduring or after the screening. Rabbits have alsobeen known to turn upon their owners during this most exciting,psychological drama and make short shift of them, so a cautionaryattitude is recommended. Whatever you do, DO NOT TURN YOURBACK on your precious, little, darling, baby! You may rue theday you did if you neglect to heed this most important piece of adviceand warning.
At 9:45 P.M. - !0:00 P.M. there will be a short intermission in orderto restore order within your homes, or replace damaged barricadesinterloper bunniesin your localemay haveattempted to breach. This time might also be used to attendto medical emergencies, foodstuff replenishment, and/or sanitary needs.
At 10:45 P.M. - 11:00 P.M. there will be an apres filmcommentary, to count heads, assess damage, make repairs,tend to any wounds, and proffer any suggestions for controlling anylingering, rampaging bunnies, both in your home and about yourlocale.
The scheduling above in no way implies that you limited to those timesto post, nor that you are not free to scream for help and succor at anypoint during the film. As crisises develop, you might bebetter served by posting immediately, assome of us have hadprevious experience with this event and might be able to recommendprocedures to extract you fromdilemmas thatyou mayfind yourself in without inflicting major casualties upon your own lifeand limb while fighting off strange bunnies, orevenyour very own pet bunnies.
For those of you who survive relatively intact,itis suggested that yousubmit an "after action report," inorder to future assist those of us who have not endured thishorrific annual experience unscathed. Your reportwill be of benefit for those who dare to attempt the feat again nextyear.
Almost time to "lock and load, and rock and roll!"See ya, then!
