So, my friend Eric, who wants everyone to know that yesterday was his birthday, managed to turn an upcoming Saturday night house party into the weirdest party EVER. He’s requesting that, in honor of his birthday, each of us memorize some Shakespeare and recite it at the party. If you’re going “WTF?” as you read that, join the club. He says he wants to the group to have some class for a change. Come on, Eric, we’re incapable of having any class, the fact that we hang out with John D should be evidence enough of that.<\/p>\n
So if anyone has any particularly tasty Shakespeare quotes that I can use, e-mail ’em to me. Otherwise I guess I’ll do some searching online – I know that the entire works of Shakespeare can be found somewhere on the Internet.<\/p>\n
Recap of last night: The Rapscallions took third place in trivia, bringing our total gift certificate stash to $250. One of the waitresses contemplated getting on stage and singing a song, but then stopped and asked, “If I sing, are you going to write about it on your blog?” No, silly – I’m going to pull out my camera, switch it to video mode, record the entire thing, then upload it to YouTube and embed it in my blog. Because I’m high-tech like that.<\/p>\n
Plans for the rest of this week:<\/p>\n
Today:<\/span> The Wednesday night episode of “Paul Gets Drunk at the Saucer,” possibly followed by an episode of “Paul Stumbles Over to McGuinness and Drinks More.” If that’s not Must See TV, I don’t know what is. By the way, I’d be stumbling to Hoop’s Bar rather than McGuinness, but HOOPER HASN’T GOT THE PLACE OPEN YET!!!!! HURRY UP! Just checked my Gmail and the sponsored ad link up top read, “Who has a crush on you? Click here to find out, it’s scary how accurate it is!” Hmmm… I’m curious if this thing will come up with not only the right name, but the right spelling since it can be spelled with either a “k” or a “c.” All right, it wants my name and my zodiac sign… and my phone number. F that. If that website wants my phone number it can at least buy me a drink first.<\/p>\n One of my blog readers e-mailed with a GREAT idea for a post. A trip down memory lane, listing all of my favorite places where I hung out since moving Downtown 6 years ago, that have since closed their doors. Oh that would be a FUN post to do. Give me a few days to make a list.<\/p>\n All right, time to hit Publish and go read my favorite blogger\/MILF’s blog, to see how many times she’s broken up and gotten back together with her dude in the past 24 hours. I’ll put the over\/under at 3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So, my friend Eric, who wants everyone to know that yesterday was his birthday, managed to turn an upcoming Saturday night house party into the weirdest party EVER.

\nThursday:<\/span> The Thursday night episode, and probably EP’s after that.
\nFriday: <\/span> Private party at a Downtown bar. After that I’ll be meeting up with a birthday party going on elsewhere Downtown. Will meet up with them at either Circa, EP’s, or Earnestine & Hazel’s, depending on the time.
\nSaturday:<\/span> Arkansas vs. Tennessee at 11:30 AM. I’ll be at the Saucer wearing my Hog Hat. Later in the day, a friend’s housewarming party at his condo, where I’ll have to recite f-ing Shakespeare. Thanks again Eric.
\nSunday:<\/span> Sunday Fun Day, with brunch at McGuinness this week.<\/p>\n
