Thread: summer hummer

Jeezus, I don't know what to make of this. This is the email I got from high school (fundraising people) today. Pretty embarassing, if you ask me.
I'm removing identifying names...


Subject : THE SUMMER HUMMER - IT'S NOT TOO LATE

| | | Inbox


Dear Dexter:


There's still time to make it!
The reincarnation of the fabulous X School Summer Hummer Dance is
coming Saturday, June 26th, 2004 at the Upper School in Gates Mills.
Alumni, Faculty and Staff, X Parents and Grandparents, and
Friends are cordially invited.

The evening kicks off at 6:30 PM with two bands including the original
Summer Hummer band, the Fat City Summer Sausage

Summer sausage, gorp, and chocolate. Meal of champions.


But yes, its embarassing. But isnt high school supposed to be embarassing?

Google can be scary sometimes.

Dex, your choice of educational institution sure covers a wide range of religions. You ever think of going to BYU? They say threes a charm...

I swear I'm not e-mailing Dex.

Haha I haven't posted in months but that was the funniest thing I've read on here in a while so I had to reply... Shit

I almost didn't post it, but since it brought extaski back to the board, it was definitely worth it.

I can't see ice's link for some reason, but I can see the address line, and it has something to do with Gilmour? Wrong school in Gates Mills I think (Gilmour sucked). It's a Catholic school? Which explains cantdog's post? I was trying to figure out what the religion of the hummer would be (hedonism, maybe).

I did, as a sophomore, get high one night at Gilmour, hiding under a pine tree during a dance. Bong was a Coke can, as I recall.

Summer Hummer

6 oz thawed frozen lemonade concentrate
750 ml Pimm's No. 1
24 oz cold water
12 oz spiced rum
10 lemon slices

Combine all ingredients except lemon slices in a pitcher that holds at least 75 ounces; stir well. Can be served immediately or covered and refrigerated until ready to serve. Fill 10-ounce wine glasses or tall glasses three-quarters full with ice cubes. Add drink mixture; garnish with a lemon slice hooked over the glass rim. (Makes 10 six-and-a-half-ounce servings.)

Yeah, the link was for Gilmour, which is in fact a Catholic school.

Odd you can't see it, though.

Hummers and sausage?


Must be some kind of alternative school.

southern comfort = bourbon
pimms = gin

Same concept, more or less. Sweetened flavored booze.

Close, but that's still Gilmour. Wrong school, right suburb. Maybe some of them saw me smoking up under that tree way back in the 80's.
That's the school that called the cops on us during our senior festivities and had 95 of 102 seniors detained for several hours.

Hawken?

My guess also.

And they have a very nice alumni letter.

I knew I shouldn't have posted this. You guys spend too much time Googling.
So, yes, Hawken is the school that's all about hummers.
Not so much when I was there, though.
Unfortunately.
