Goddammit. Where's blue? I haven't sat up all night drinking with her in a really long time. I'm going to cease using the backsaace bare in order to give you a guage of my drunkenness.

Hey, one more page and the page number will = the year. That will probably never happen again unless they change the post count per page display again.

Yes. Currently I'm in the middle bronze age. Surprisingly, though, U can still type for the most part. My thoughts, however, are as muddled as the mint in my drink.

Uhhh, that was meant to be an I. No matter how inevriated I may be, I will never substitute a single letter for that word. Or use anyt sort of similar idiotic shorthand. I wonder if this music is too loud for the niegbors. Do you think they like Bowling for Soup?

You can tell I'mg etting shloshed when I post three (or four) times in a row. This is what we call stream-of-semiconsciousness posting.

RG... I must admit it truly is a joy to see you here tonight. Rarely have I had to chance to see you typing in such a state, and yet, despite your condition you still refuse to use silly Internet shorthand.

Bravo!!!

May I pour you another?

AOL CD = great coaster. These icy cocktalis sure do sweat. Tangential anecdote: My friend Benhjamin once accidetnally plumbed a toilet to the HOT water main. He said that the experience of using it was somewhat erotic, escept for the condesnation effect.

Barring some sort ofr catasstrophic failure, I'll be there. I have a gift ticket lined up, so all I have to do is get my sorry ass out there. Especially since AntiM transports most of my camp infrastructure.

Oops. time for a refill.

Tired. But well. Been so busy here that I couldn't even look through the wormhole to see what was going on. Two minor outages in Texas And Kansas City.

Damnit. Must remember my own NTSs, even when I've had an ass-kickin' mojito. You should try one, LCN. that bastard Badger got me hooked on these, the night he gave my my Playa name.

LCN, i think you and I are about due for new taglines. You can hardly be new and improved with as long as you've had that blather upgrade. unless this is a newer and improveder version with still more blather. But is the 25% more an increase over the opriginal increment, or over the previous version (was it 1.1, or 2.0?)
