Hey! Thanks everyone! Thanks LOA! LOL!
Happy Birthday to your mum, Vogon.
Posted by Siegfried (Member # 29) on :
No fair. LOA dances for Andrew on his birthday, yet I get nothing in return for demands from LOA to provide dirty lymericks. What a rip.
Oh, and happy birthday, Andrew.

Yes, happy birthday.

Apparently. LOA must have worked at a Bennigan's at some point. That's exactly the same song they sing there. I know this because I've had it sung to me on one too many birthdays there.

Actually, I work at Red Robin... and that song isn't one we often sing, but it's the only one I know that DOESN'T have the words "Red Robin" in it
And actually, in honor of the occasion, allow me to present to you...... a picture of me.... on my way to work... in my Red Robin uniform
It's well over a year old, but I thought you'd all enjoy, no less... *grin*
Ta-ta!

Red Robin is a resturant, we have them here in PA.

There have always been women on Flare, Wes. It just that most of the time we scare them into staying lurkers because we all get so razzled whenever we realize there is a woman here.
It's sorta like that South Park episode when Bebe gets boobs.

You're not allergic to penicillin, are you?
Posted by Siegfried (Member # 29) on :
The post office wouldn't accept my cake. They said something about looking to similar to a poster on the Most Wanted listed by the PO boxes.
Happy birthday, though.

There's a library joke in there someplace, but it's not like the Virgo one wasn't already bad enough.

Mainly because Charles shut down the last one we did of him about five posts in, and too many people were volunteering to be interrogated. Takes all the fun out of it.

You know I avoided those interrogation threads - they went on forEVER - well one of them did. What was it all about?

Tora, I am planning to go to Salsa night at Ronnie Scotts Jazz club in Soho. I have only just learnt the salsa basics so it could prove to be interesting! Thats Saturday night. Sunday I have rehearsals for much of the day so will instruct girlfriend to 'surprise' me with nice dinner when I get home.
Are you in the UK yet BTW?
Andrew the interrogation threads were a thinly veiled excuse for getting out the candle wax and some bondage gear...just for fun you understand...
Posted by LOA (Member # 49) on :
Oh, I'm not encouraging that we start another interrogation.... no way, no how.... I'm just saying, those WERE the good old days.... the days when I would gleefully bound home after work or play, anxious to see what had been posted since I'd last been able to check....

Ooh! Nimmy in town too. . . Well, at present we have no idea of what we're doing for NYE. Traditionally we go down to my parents' for NYD because it's my Dad's birthday, but we don't want to be there for NYE because there's fuck all to do in mid-Sussex and we just end up staying in and watching Jools Holland. So we're looking at maybe going out in London.
Anybody who's actually around can get me on 07971 795612 (Liam, do you have my number? I forget). Nimmy is one of the few people I've mentioned to my wife, largely in his capacity as Weird Cult Guy. 8)

I don't know as of yet which days we'll visit London, but as I said I will be there from 27/12 through 2/1. There must be some scheduled "free activity" in there somewhere. We can take it over PMs, mail or smuss.
Posted by Hobbes (Member # 138) on :
07971 795612 ... that's actually a phone number? Those seem like pain to remember.
And as of a few days ago I am 21! In most countries that'd be no big deal, but in this one it is because I can now legally drink. Don't ask me why when they tell you you're an adult at 18 they still don't trust to you to drink. I even saw a billboard once that wanted to raise the drinking age to 25. Considering the majority of college students are under 25 and spend the most money at bars it would be a killer on pubs across America.
Anyway, enough ranting and bitching.
Happy birthday to me! Now please excuse me while I continue to get drunk.
Posted by Topher (Member # 71) on :
Well, who knows what part of that is the area code and whatnot. I mean, to someone outside of NA, 1 506 757 1019 would be hard to remember.
Plus, if you look at it, 07971 795612 and 1 506 757 1019 have the same amount of numbers, just grouped differently. One could write 0 797 179 5612 or 15067 571019...

New Years Eve? I can't wait.
I'm spending it in Wallace, ID. Trust me, this is a whoo, hoo event.
The Boy's band is playing a gig there that night, and as is the way of the world, I get to go along. The plus side to it all? Unlike every other out of town show he's played since he's been home, we're actually staying over night for this one... whoo, hoo! No driving home with drunken drivers in the middle of the night on icy roads! :-)

Hehe. That is the entertainment down south where I work. Remember, any farther south in ILL turns to farm REAL FAST. Anywhoo, I'll be more likely to just go home and play online than party.
