Delerium Tremens, people. Get the Delerium Tremens.
And someone please take a photo of the chalkboard so we can all see how fresh the beer is, and when the kegs were tapped. dba is the place that does that, right?

I guess you could get both. There's a beer called that, and it comes in one of the fancy-pants goblets instead of a pint-glass. I think a friend of mine took me to dba when I visited and they had Delerium Tremens (the beer), but I might be mistaking it for someplace else.

I'm losing my mind again. Once again, I thought for the briefest of moments "why don't I ever just drive into the city". Then I smacked myself until the thought went away.
Am still undecided as to attendance, but the subway is the way to go, I'm sure.

We stayed for another couple hours, then we went to Tile Bar, then me and Pips, Vidiot and Bari got tired and bailed around 10. Sarge, i_cola, Cunning Linguist, Amber, and Karmakaze, kept going.

Beyond the realm of human comprehension; inscrutable.
Available only to the initiate; secret: occult lore. See Synonyms at mysterious.
Hidden from view; concealed.

I kinda like the idea. I got a manicure/pedicure once about seven-eight years ago, and I can see why people get hooked on them.

Well, I'm only just emerging from the hangover to come say wow - I had a blast. As I vaguely remember proclaiming loudly at least 35 times, I was kind of amazed. I certainly wasn't expecting to end up on a street corner leaving slurry messages on answering machines of people I hadn't seen in years, actually believing that heading for AC in a few hours was a truly splendid idea and playing Cupid with a strange Scottsman and a dopey Lufthansa intern. Maybe if he'd kept the kilt on.....
I believe you guys promised me deep fried Toffee Crisps. Don't think for a moment I'm not going to hold you to that promise.
Now I'm off to change my userpage to stress that despite the dopey screen name, I am not a lesbian. Not that, you know, there's anything wrong with that, but it was a little disconcerting to find everyone just assumed...

Really? I assumed nothing of the sort.
(Hey, what people do behind closed doors is their own damn business, as far as I'm concerned...unless it's really entertaining and/or weird, in which case I want pictures.)
There were dopey Lufthansa interns? Dammit, I left too early. Damn sleep-deprivation catching up with me at inopportune times...
And CL, come back to Noo Yawk. We'll getcha a toffee crisp.

not that i'm bitter or anything..
oops, hehe. well ok sarge but how was i to know...? but thank you, it was a nice surprise and i like how you made my name so big it looks like i'm crowding the other names off the page. it's funny 'cause in person i tend to sprawl out and take up more than my share of personal space. this is why i spell my n a m e online the way i do. 8-)
and hey, considering how many active crushes i have at any given time, coming in second to amber is pretty darn good...! :-D
(how about a toronto or montreal meetup this summer? say early July?)
i'll be in beautiful downtown winterpeg for most of july - i'm having a big visit-my-family tour of north america this summer. toronto needs to have a big meet up tho', and have the adorable god complex as the special out of town guest, since he's in province all summer.

Yeah, let's invite the Texans for a social.
By the size of the drinks in the pictures, the green bottles, will have to. Unless that was water. Looks like a well had time, I'm jealous.
Sarge did you move to the USA? If not, may your visit be memorable, the good and the bad. So what is the "i" in i_cola's name stand for?
