Elsewhere, Mammuthus mentioned:
quote:
a regular EvC Xmas party with Dan and Hambre brawling under the mistletoe
The altercation in question started when "Mr. Gratitude" himself opened his Secret Santa present (ever culturally sensitive, I had wrapped it in cheap leftover Hanukkah paper), the 6-DVD set of the Tru Calling TV show. He was furious. And I thought he liked Eliza What's-her-name.
Like many others, I had far too much of MrJack's homebrew and don't remember too much after contracycle called in the bomb threat. Can anyone fill me in?
regards,
Esteban Hambre

Having stolen the last of Mr.Jack's homebrew (because private property even when freely shared was inhibiting his free speech rights) contracycle picked a fight with holmes and Rhrain. The two of them tied him up and put him in a room where he was forced to listen to a poetry reading by Brad McFall for several hours...contracycle has not been heard from since.
Meanwhile, Percy and buzzsaw stood back to back refusing to acknowledge each other...Moose was seen letting univited guests like John Davison and Syamsu in through the back door as SLPx was acting as bouncer at the front door.
Quetzal was trying to convince everyone to play Starcraft but most just kept up the old refrain "A bacteria does not give birth to a human...and where the hell did the beer go". Schrafinator kindly offerred to ride her horse into town and pick some up. She never came back as apparently they allowed smoking in the liquor store.
Crashfrog went next but NosyNed just kept dragging him back to some place called "Topic"....with no beer or punch left, the entire crew moved on the the table dance club known as the "Boot Camp" where a wild bar room brawl ensued. EvC is seeking donations to cover the legal costs as Mike the Wiz was hit so hard during the party that he relapsed into creationism which was deemed by the French Court of Human Rights and Cheese Quality Control as a major breech of world IQ. Dan Carroll has been hired by the court to draw everyone's sketches using as many bright colors as possible.

Mr. Jack's Bathwater is a beer in need of respect and yet you knock it back like it's Coor's lite - what do you expect?

Thanks for the update. Who was that kid who kept showing up at the door saying he was "not Jason"? His mom came to get him, but the last I saw her she was headed to the basement with Jar.

If you want your Ale to be respected, don't serve it in a big long wooden trough. I gotta suffer so you don't have to scrub bottles?

I am not Jason, though I play him on tv...I am the one with the Chin.
Well, my EvC Xmas is coming early...I am heading to my favorite city in the world where there is more dirt in the air than on the ground but it still manages to be cool..good old New York City.
so I wish you all happy holidays...and I'll be back to annoy/debate you in 2005

I have a vague memory of Buz going on about how much better parties were fifty years ago, right up until a visibly drunk Syamsu tried to pick a fight with him, yelling something unintelligible about comparison. That and John Davison name-dropping the hosts of other parties he'd been to, none of which had been within my lifetime.
The rest is kind of a blur.

Wait, that trough was for the ale?
Oh. Then where was the bathroom?

Boy does that bring back memories. I remember the first time I went in a place that actually had individual urinals instead of the long trough. It seemed a major waste of space. With the trough there was always at least a gap for those of steady aim.
How things have changed.

I thought it might be worth taking a moment to point out that this is the first time in my life that I've ever heard anyone wax nostalgic about urinals.

Ah, much wisdom have I learned from reading the walls. In particular, the walls from the Peabody Bookshop and Beer Stube.
