Who's going?
Where you pre-partying?
And most importantly, who has an extra for Smackie on late notice?

Ted Leo Roll Call
i'm in…no extra though ::)
Alright, if these keeps up I'm getting my Mexican Xmas on instead….
Seriously, where's the love for a 5 time boardie of the year?

I'm in. No extra, but I'll gladly buy smackie a drink, once he gets in.
I'm having a pretty crappy week work and home wise - you around Friday? Maybe a late afternoon beer or three?
i'll be there, but sadly without an extra ticket for the smackiest of smackies.

I'm there for you. Have a lunch on Friday and that's it until late night…you say when and where.
I'll be there. If Smackie shows, I promise I will find an extra ticket.
wow, an old school boardie meet up. I'm sad I waited to buy my ticket now…

Sounds good.
And thanks ggw - I missed that offer. I ended up taking a couple of my lady friends to el vez and los straightjackets instead where I convinced them both to be my latina backup singers for the night, complete with costume changes.
nice catching up with smackie and ggw - I have the feeling I left just as things were getting interesting

the missus and i picked up baby-sitting duties at the reef, with the director providing the soundtrack. other than some heated debate about agricultural genetics and a broken up almost-fight on the dancefloor (no boardees involved), it was all good clean fun. we left around 1:30 leaving smackie to fend for himself. he seemed to be making all sorts of new friends of the female persuasion so i'm sure he did fine.
Greetings from 35000 feet, with a slight hangover.
Brennser did leave as things were getting interesting. Great to see you again and I think that by the next time I'm there, you will be over Ireland not making the World Cup. Maybe.
GGW is still one of the smartest guys I know and watching him holding court with some of the new young folks in town to change the world was awesome. He had their undivided attention. He aslo made about 10 calls to his missus "just one more drink with smackie then I'll head home…" I owe him tremendously.
Sweetcell must be hung like a horse because his missus is smoking hot - he's punching well above his weight. I snuck a dance or two in with her and warned sweetcell that if she was younger, I'd go Tiger Woods on her.
The Director spun quite the soundtrack for my visit. I have no idea what time it was when I got kicked out of the DJ booth, but I know I walked back to my hotel with a huge smile on my face.
thatguy also took care of me in fine fashion on Thursday night - thanks for that and the inspiration to have latina backup singers follow me around this xmas.
Today, I spent the morning avoiding the snow and watching United and then some college football with godsshoeshine - very cool of him to take me in and then brave the weather to get me to the airport. Awesome time.
Thank you to everybody who came out to see me - sorry to everybody I wasn't able to see. I'll be back in a few months - after my liver recovers.

Me too, actually. The white stuff was really coming down….
We eneded up sitting on the Tarmac for an hour, but I didn't notice because I was passed out. Woke up about half way through the flight, did a little free wi-fi bizness and watched a little Entourage. Not a bad flight. Thanks again.
no problem, save the snowy trip to the airport, thats what i do most saturday afternoons anyway
mrs shoeshine asked me if we were drinking beers during the sportsfest, and i told her i had to drive in the snow and smackie was kind of hurting from hanging out with the director
