Sept
25, 2006 - Jak se Maj! HAPPY MONDAY, and welcome back everyone!!! Its been a LONG time since I did an update, and to be perfectly honest, I don't have a good excuse why... Sure, I've been busy, but you know what? I'm almost 40, and I should be able
prioritize my life more appropriately. What made me realize that? Well, it might have had something to do with a half a bottle of gin I ran into Thursday night, but I can't remember for sure... :-)
So what's new? Well, the major project at work that's been keeping me busy is pretty much done. We moved a data center from Pennsylvania to Minnesota, and it was a pain, but its over... last weekend we did the move, and I pulled a 41 hour work day, which is
probably a first for me, and went the entire weekend without going on a runner... NO BAR TIME AT ALL! Pretty wild... But that's over, and its time to move on...
Here's a good story I ran into...
The King's Foreign Minister (Paul by name) had a long-standing obsession to nuzzle the beautiful Queen's voluptuous breasts, but he knew the penalty for this would be death.
One day he revealed his secret desire to his colleague, Antone, the Physician, who was the King's chief doctor. Antone the Physician exclaimed that he could arrange for the Foreign Minister to satisfy his desire, but it would cost him 1,000 gold coins to arrange it. Without pause, the Foreign Minister readily agreed to the scheme!
The next day, Antone the Physician made a batch of itching powder and poured a little bit into the Queen's brassiere while she bathed. Soon after she dressed, the itching commenced and grew intense. Upon being summoned to the Royal Chambers to address this incident, Antone the Physician informed the King and Queen that only a special saliva if applied for four hours, would cure this type of itch, and that tests had shown that only the saliva of the Foreign Minister would work as the antidote to cure the itch.
The King quickly summoned the Foreign Minister. Antone the Physician then slipped the Foreign Minister the antidote for the itching powder, which he quickly put into his mouth, and for the next four hours, Paul worked passionately on the Queen's voluptuous and magnificent breasts. The Queen's itching was eventually relieved, and the Foreign Minister left satisfied and touted as a hero.
Upon returning to his chamber, the Foreign Minister found Antone the Physician demanding his payment of 1,000 gold coins. With his obsession now satisfied, the Foreign Minister couldn't have cared less and, knowing that Antone the Physician could never report this matter to the King, shooed him away with no payment made.
The next day, Antone the Physician slipped a massive dose of the same itching powder into the King's shorts. The King immediately summoned the Foreign Minister...
MORAL OF THE STORY #1: Pay your bills.
I had a couple other morals, but I'm sure you know what they are...
How about we take care of this week's drinking agenda. I hope there's no gin on the menu...
25 William Faulkner’s Birthday (1897). “There’s no such thing as bad whiskey. Some just happen to be better than others.”
Well whiskey.
26 Gilligan’s Island debuts (1964). Fact: 70% of men prefer Mary Anne.
Gilligan’s Island
1 oz vodka
1 oz peach schnapps
3 oz orange juice
3 oz cranberry juice
Shake, pour over ice.
27 Samuel Adams’ Birthday (1722). Patriot, brewer, boozehead. Sam Adams Lager.
28 Drink As Much Beer As Possible Day. Started in Milwaukee. Case of Old Milwaukee.
29 Festival of Tezcatzonctl (Aztec). All Hail the Chief Aztec God of Intoxication!
Tequila.
30 Cheers debuts (1982). “Terrorists, Sam. They’ve taken over my stomach and they’re demanding beer.”—Norm.
A trough of beer and a snorkel.
1 The Tonight Show starring Johnny Carson and world-class drunkard Ed McMahon debuted (1962).
Hi-yooooo!
Bourbon in a coffee cup.
Wow,
What a great week of drinking!!! Gilligan's Island, Sam Adams, Old
Milwaukee, Tequila, and a TOUGH OF BEER!!! And I think that the October 1st recommendation can be
done at 5am! (See below)
Well, its a big week for the BBC! Bob and the Boys will be traveling out to Hebel's Corners for the annual World Championship Booyah Cookoff for the 3rd year. The fire will be lit at 5am, and our FDA Chair will be leading us to more awards! Should be another great time!!! To make it even better, the FM will ACTUALLY be attending, even though he will
disassociate himself as usually... To really top it off, the 50/50 sales lady returns, so we got that going for us...
What else before I go...? I think The President is a bit annoyed... He has managed to complete the cabin leveling project, almost single
handedly... (Well, he and the AG) I think he was annoyed with the lack of help, which I think is my fault. Not that he NEEDED the help, infact repairs probably went 200% better without anyone interfering with his
genius, but I think he missed the company... So, if I screwed up again, my apologies... I offer up my position, if anyone is willing to fill it...
I think that's it for today... not good... not bad... "It is what it is..."
But before I go, a few words of wisdom for our junior members:
"He had delusions of adequacy." -- Walter Kerr
Makes me think of The President's Staff...
Until next time, take care...
As Red would say, "Keep your stick on the ice!"
Sept 19, 2006 - Jak se Maj! Long time no see... I promise to get an update out next week... hopefully...
Sept
05, 2006 -
Jak se Maj! Happy Tuesday! Quick update today due to the long weekend...
Not a bad weekend... Yesterday bit due to some work issues which kept me pretty close to home, so I really didn't get anything done or have any fun. Not cool... But Sunday was great, as the SEC-State's parents celebrated their 50th year together! Great party, and we did a mock wedding for them. That's always a blast for some reason. A Happy
Anniversary to the Barber and his beautiful bride!!!
While we're on the whole wedding topic, here's a good one:
HOW TRUE!!!
How about we take care of this week's drinking agenda:
4 Looking For the Boundaries Day
(Cuchumatan Indians, Guatemala Highlands). Test the boundaries of last call.
Mescal.
5 On the Road published. Barhop like Cassady and Kerouac. Cheap beer.
6 Read a Book Day. See if they have a bartender’s bible behind the bar. Flop the guide open and see what you get.
7 Keith Moon overdosed on drugs prescribed to combat his alcohol problem (1978). Well, it cured his drinking.
Booze, hold the drugs.
8 Star Trek debuts (1966). Kirk and his lusty band of drunks are unleashed on the universe.
Romulan Ale.
9 Horned Dance Festival (Pagan). Ah yes, the horned dance. You know the one. Sex on the Beach.
10 Buy a Regular a Drink Day. Wonder who came up with this one. Cheapest draft.
Wow! What a GREAT week of drinking! Thank goodness we missed yesterday though... That Mescal is nasty stuff!
Definitely a short update, but its all I got time for... its late already... but as always, before I go, a few words of wisdom for our junior members:
"You've told a priest, Make it a triple this time, and hold the wafer." -- Anonymous AA Member to a Catholic on how to tell if he's a drunk.
Ouch...
Until next time, take care...
As Red would say, "Keep your stick on the ice!"
