So, da Family Chipanizzi (cheep-an-ezy), workin wit da Canton of Readstan, wishes to invite youze all to a fabulous dance type Ball. Dis here shindig will provide you alls wit plenty of dancin' like what you get wit any fancy-type occasions, such as dis is gonna be. But don' get us wrong! This is strictly for pleasure, and seein' as how our lawyer will be outta town dat week, no business will be conducted formally. However, those of youse who is not under the protection of the SCA, there will be $3 charge (non-member surcharge) to assure dat nothin' untowards might happen.

Now dis here event did not fall offa the truck, so for youse what don't know the dances, it's okay. We gotta guy. In fact, we got three guys what'll teach youse how to do it! Now, for doze of you who is not of the Italian persuasion, come as you would in your own locale, but hey, dress nice, or Fat Tony will cry. And fear not, ifn you needs some amanity, we more dan understand if youze needs to wear a mask (masquerade). We ain't askin' no questions, yanno what I mean?  fuggedaboutit!

So, knowin' that Fat Tony has a sweet tooth, and dancin is good for the appetite, wez asking that youze toconsider bringing some dessert for the buffet to share with Fat Tony and wit luck, there will be enough left over for everyone else to share (dessert potluck). However, round dinner time, Fat Tony is working to arrange a special discount with local reputable vendors of food and beverage just outside the door. Beverages on the up and up will be provided for all those thirsty dancers by Nana Chipanizzi, who will not be in attendance due to a little mix up at da docks.

Now, we know youze wanna dance and rub elbows wit da cream del ela creme (heh, dats French!), right? And we know youse got fancy duds left over from your last court case, right?! So, why don't you wanna come do our ball, eh? You know you want to come... cuz you know you don' wanna make Fat Tony cry, riiiiight? Good, ya get my drift. See youze dere! Bring the kiddies, they're gonna love it.
