Could You Delay X-Day for Me?

Could you delay X-Day until July 6th?

A friend of mine is having a 5th of July party and I would really like to
enjoy it uninterrupted. I'm planning on spending my time sitting on big
cushy lawn chairs eating hotdogs, followed by long stretches of blowing
shit up (in homage to the Incredible Exploding Angus, the Waffle King).
It would REALLY nice if the revelry was uninterrupted by giant
mechanical BoB heads blowing up the house, the grill and other party goers
with Atomic Death Rays. I'll be safe, I've sent in my 30 Dollars (well I
will anyway. Tomorrow. Really, I promise. Well before X-Day anyway...)
but I don't what the sublime serenity of a cookout interrupted by any
explosions I don't personally cause.

This is very important, and hey it's ONLY one day.

What's it worth to you? Bidding started a long time ago - send checks
you-know-where. If you beat the Xists, then ihop-Day will be whenever you
want.

Tell you what, I'll give each Xist one hotdog with the relish of their
choice (mustard, catsup and/or chopped sweet pickles) if they delay for
just a measly 24 hours. Not only that, I'll throw in a bun for free.
They'll have to find the party on their own, but I'm sure that won't be a
problem for them.

Just out of curiosity, what is the bidding up to anyway?

How about November 16, 1964?

Why, exactly, do you want to give up the endless pleasures of the Saucers
for a mere Earth party?
Why don't you just buy the friend a membership and have the party ON the
Saucers?
