I occaisionally forget about it...

I played 3 years out of my 4... Pres. Torgerson put a big kibosh on it my last year. I actually KNEW the first 3 people who got arrested once they cracked down. It was pretty silly, actually. They did it on purpose. Sort of a "damn The Man, save the Empire" sore of move... they went to the Library Lawn, dropped trou, and were instantly siezed by the SPO cops...

$1000 fine (for Decorah, not Luther), and kicked out of their dorm rooms. Parking stickers revoked. The funniest thing about it was that it was 3 sober Dean's List students... A honor roll, all that shit. Kinda hard to get everyone to believe it was hedonism perpetrated by drunk frat boys after that...

Wow... I'm always amazed at what an effect diet has on the body... is there a specific thing that you eat that makes them better, or worse, or causes them? This stuff is just so damned interesting...

i was there in 2000 - had moved into the middle part of Brandt for the last bit since i was sticking around to play graduation with LCSO. my window looked out onto Library lawn, as i recall. but it was the racket that woke me at 3 am.

aw, shucks. No red wine?? :cry: We'll just make sure to keep some riesling or something back behind the bar, then...

At one point, I was having some serious wierd swelling going on with my fingers... they STILL don't know what was up (I'm calling it stress... more amazing things to me: the MIND'S affect on the body). Anyway, they had, at one point, diagnosed it as gout... and a doctor friend of mine gave me a list of food that aggrivate it: BEER was number one on the list. I almost passed out.

Luckily, that diagnonsense went out the window, and I got to drink beer again. Which was, coincidentally, the culprit of my headache this morning... ahhh, mack and jack's....

can you have them in the e-bar without repercussions?
i still haven't figured out if i'm allowed to have internet food and alcohol. so far i've just been ordering it and holding it.

i can be like Sensei. he just sits there and sniffs at his drinks. it's hilarious.
it's because he's a lightweight, i think.

Rian -
I've officially decided that part of the beauty of the eplaya (kinda like the real playa...) is that you can do whatever the fuck you want (except piss people off, of course) with nary a repurcussion. That's why i sit in here chatting and drinking all day (which is what i'd *really* like to be doing) while my default self is droning away at work. (did i use parantheses enough in that post?)

Mornin' Guinevere! and what are we wearing today???

Mimosas are up! The best bubbly and fresh squeezed OJ! What's for breakfast?

Top o the mornin' Sam! You seem to be the only fella around today.... :wink:

That 2nd makes no sence. Unless they don't want the antidote walking free out on the streets outside their control. I get the feeling that they are grade a control freaks there.

But if they are the same person I think they are distinctly different personalities that likely don't even know the other shares the same body.
Remember that Rian is the voice in Rob the Wob's head, that Rob the Wob is my sock and that Rian and I are the parents of Chickenfish. If you want to throw Stuart into that menage, I suppose I can't stop you. But I still maintain that I fathered Chickenfish through the miracle of fishy transgenderism. We are not going to say that Rian fathered him through the use of Stuart's gonads in their shared body!

Oh, the head's getting better quickly. But I think I'd rather have the Mary, instead of the mimosa... I need something salty, I think.

But seriously, folks: it's only 10-fucking-40 A-fucking-M! Oh my goddess! This day is going to be a killer, I can already tell.

I've noticed that more than any particular trigger, it's a pattern of eating. I don't feel like eating enough so I dont, or it's too complicated to make dinner so I go to sleep or something like that and after a couple few days I'm hypoglicemic and headachy and can't eat a thing--too nausious. So then it's a day or two to get back on track. And the mrFishist can't take a hint and make me a steak (sorry, veggies) or go out for chinese takeout, so I'm still a little weak. I do have some almonds around here. And i'll keep noshing sugar for the hypoglicimia. But like I said, this is the first time I"ve been this bad in ages.

I'm hypoglycemic all the time... so I hear you on that front. Orange juice, orange juice... I can't get enough of that orange stuff....

Maybe the MrFishist needs a bigger hint: like, take all the food out of the fridge---everything... leave it bare---and then ask him to maybe fix a little snack...

or maybe a good smack on the back of the head... not that I condone domestic violence...

Goooood Morning! Sorry for those of you that are under the weather ... I am just all bright and sunny this morning. The weather is perfect though it is supposed to rain this weekend :(

Hey, if you want a serious energy pickup, I have discovered a thing called Juvenon ... http://www.juvenon.com/

It is sold as a fogey suppliment but MAN that stuff works! Better than any energy drink that I have ever seen. Just don't take it on an empty stomach if you have trouble with heartburn. And it will make you a little thirsty.

You dont need to buy that product, you can get the same things at your local drugstore. It is basically:

500 milligrams of Acetyl-L-Carnitine
200 milligrams of Alpha Lipoic Acid
100 micrograms of biotin

the stuff is just AWESOME. When I take that with just a regular multivitimin and after only 2 days I am thinking clearer, have more energy. If you take Sam-e with it, after a week or two your whole attitude will take a turn for the better. What was most amazing to me was when I STOPPED taking it ... I felt sluggish and tired and thought ... damn ... is THIS what I felt like all the time before I started taking this?

Well, off to work with my boys and girls. See you all later.

Also, I would love to *takes sip of Simard* but it might be off from being open for so long so would you *describes* simard as a mouton type or lafite type of bordeaux.


and lastly, and I know I am gonna catch massive shit but fuckit

thanks for dropping that other 'rookie shoe, Stuart... the anticipation was killing me.

and, as for this:
could you guys take the Luther reunion action to another thread or PM? Just a civil request.

Just a civil reply: just as in a real bar, there are some conversations that a person just doesn't want to take part in. And, just in a real bar, you are free to leave at any time. Hell, you don't even need to wait around to pay your tab here.
