Thanks man! I'm working on a new post right as we speak. You did fill me in on some highlights. My next foray is in December. Which Hash House did you go to? Imperial Shithouse? I took a group there once, and they all thought I was out of my mind. Took the redhead there too and she couldn't comprehend why I needed such a large pancake. :lol:


Yes, Imperial Shithouse. Funny thing is I didn't need to go back again, everything kinda had that sage thing going, but the guys loved it and the Lucky 7 at the Rock was under renovation and a shell of itself, so we had to wander outward.

Dececmber huh?

Happy Friday everyone. Since it is Friday, scotch is once again on the menu. But no pretzels anymore. No more carbs from that kind crap. Tonight I'm cruising through a bag of sea salt and blcak pepper pistachios

Hope everyone has the best weekend possible. I cannot wait to see you all.

Hey, elder. Today was a rough ride. Had to power down the entire server center to jump power from the east to west side of the high rise for repairs at the building leval. Ended up with issue powering the lieberts (cooling machines) and had a critical thinking exercise. Turns out the phase was jumped wrong east to west. Two wire transfers off the main and we're in business.

Celebrating with two beers.

When I hit up the local liquor store for more scotch tonight I also bought a bottle of Makers Mark.
Spending a lot more time in Lexington now because of work, and I had a very pleasurable experience with some %100 proof bourbon down there on night. I'm looking to branch out, try some different spirits. Like the all American bourbon.

Chcikened out tongiht though. Tonight I was looking for someone familiar.

Like yous guys.

Hey Josh, are you going to grace us at Vibes this year?
Office Boland, I'm looking forward to hangin' with you. You seem like a freak, with a good solid base.

Somtimes I miss my old tech sypport life. I like to fix and solve problems.

But I do not miss the bullshit caused be others lack of respect for their jobs.

Its really too hot for scotch tonight, but I'm out of beer and the alternative is the Maker's Mark.
So Mr. Black it is.

And I don't seem to be any hotter for it, so all is good on a sweltering Friday night in NJ.
Feels like a drippy 72' Dark Star tonight.

I can not wait to see you guys. Just a couple more weeks and we'll all be home again.

Hey Josh. I can always count on you being here on my Friday nights. Sooner or later we got to do this in person. Thought it was finally going to be Vibes this year, might have to shoot for Vegas.
Bet you didn't know I loved Vegas?

:lol:

Not laughing now, how's your situation with the fires? Its the weekend, maybe you want to take the family on an impromptu the fuck out of there for a couple of days? Be safe dude.

I'd show you shit in Vegas you never knew existed...:lol: Someday.

Things are getting better here. Fire's at 25% containment and has not grown in two days. Obama was in town today meeting with people, so everything's going to be just fine!!! :lol: :lol:

Exactly bro. We have so much to offer each other regarding Vegas..although my experiences my be more pure debauchery leaning than foodie. But I'm willing to learn :lol:

Anyway, good thing Obama's there to see your pain. He didn't believe you guys before. Now he'll send help.

Ok, good then. We're in agreement. Besides the occasional $100 steak, I've always found food nothing but a distraction.

Happy Friday night everyone. Last Scotch and Pretzels (although I haven't had a pretzel in I dont know how long) before Vibes! Can't believe I'm even going. It was seriously a last second come through.

13th year. Should have known it wouldn't come easy...but should have known it would have worked itself out too.

Thats Ole' Jer lookin' down :rose:

Soooo looking forward to going home :heart: :dance:

Ya know Josh, you said you were going all along. One of the reasons I tried that much harder. The day I figure I can go, you say you're out.

A less secure man than myself might take that personally, or something <_<

Just bustin'. I undertsand life getting in the way. And its not as easy for you for it to just happen, living out there in the rockies.

It will work out when it works out.

Yo Officer. Looking forward to testing the limits with you my friend. To quote a great philosopher .....it will be a time :bear2:

No scotch here at the rental, but I have polished off 3 coronas and a couple of margaritas.

Family is crashed and if I wasn't the only straight guy in town I'd be out.

Can't figure out how to Tinychat on my iPhone either.
