MelGold Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 So what would be an appropriate meal before tonight's High Heel Drag Races? Something quick so you can get a good spot by 7:30 (any later and you'll only be able to see tips of feather boas being swung like lassos) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys dressed in drag (and high heels) race up 17th Street (an area some wag here referred to as the "Gayborhood"). A little history: When this first got started, the police came and arrested everyone. Times have changed and this is a big deal. When you were told to be there by 7:30, that was no mistake. The whole area gets just packed and makes it difficult to see the race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrescentFresh Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I'm feeling that a suitable way to shake off this first semi-chill of autumn is with happy hour beer at John Harvards today. Haven't been there since I last joined DR folks there. Which, if I recall correctly, was also the first time I visited TemptAsian. Not that I'd have any interest in repeating that escapade....

shogun Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 (edited) Oh give me strength....'Nightmare on M Street' this weekend. While these sorts of things* totally suck ass, the people who want me to go with them fully don't so H Triangle, here I come! I suppose you'll be wanting my badge and gun. * Organized 'bar crawl' done by some promotions group. Pay $10 in advance or $20 at the door for the Singular Privilege of going from crappy M Street bar to crappy M Street bar to drink $2 Mass-Event Anheuser-Busch Products with approximately 900,000 representatitives of the sort of college kid who absolutely LIVE for this sort of thing. "No cover until 1 AM!!" but do any of these places HAVE covers? No, but they have at LEAST maximum legal capacity of bodies, woefully inadequate HVAC, and the slipperiest floors this side of a genuine Ibiza foam party held in the shower room of a Federal Prison. I'm Matt Robinson, and I'm a frat boy. Edited to remark: Alright, that's not to say it won't be KIND OF fun...

shogun Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Have a party to attend this evening. Incidentally, I don't think I'm going to "Nightmare on M Street" anymore, either...have a lot to do this weekend and can't afford to be hung over and useless both Saturday and Sunday. All sorority pledges singing into invisible microphones to Bon Jovi and leaning to the right in a circle. People earnestly weighing the merits of which place they should go to next as if it made that big a difference which overcrowded hole that next $2 Bud Lite came from. The best part?

DonRocks Posted October 28, 2005 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Falling squarely under the jurisdiction of the Fuck A Duck category, I apparently placed my car keys inside my trunk today while grabbing my tennis rackets, and then closed the trunk. I discovered this later, and then cabbed home. My cell phone is in my car. I cannot find my second set of car keys at home. My cordless home phone is nowhere to be found, and even if I found it, the battery would be dead. I'm certain this is why they invented alcohol.
