Well i apologize for my brashness last night i just wanted to be the first person to hit the 1,000 mark

I guess the thread COULD be shut down. The mods are always locking chillout room threads; sometimes I don't understand why. I've looked at locked threads versus open threads and there is no logical explanation (IMO) for some of the locks.

We don't get tallies for posts in chillout. Why would this be a post padding thread? Seems like a PPR would be a thread where you could increase your post count?

I think its cool that you hit 1000. If I weren't so neurotic, I would have done it! And the thread is still around.

Has anyone noticed that the quality of threads in this forum has taken a dive in the last couple of weeks?

It's difficult to avoid my homework when the threads are sooooo pathetic.

yeah...well if you spend all day on the boards like some people do...you eventually run out of things to talk about

Guilty as charged...thank goodness I'm only home 3 days a week...lol


Did I mention I'm watching 9 hockey games tonight...rofl...

I should either write a paper or study for an exam. So...I'm reading threads and drinking American beer which I'm starting to like.

yeah, the thread has taken a bit of a dive with the rest of the threads. i tend to be too drunk too late to feel like posting (if i'm even home) it's just not the same w/o mr s and orbax seems to have ditched this thread.

i wish i had more time to put into this thread because it brought me a lot of happiness, particularly when i first started it nonetheless, i refuse to let this thread die.

anyway, in the spirit of this thread and it's creation: i'm drunk again and thoroughly enjoying it.

baseball can suck it, i don't particularly care about it. i was just at the campus bar and everyone was into the game. i actually got yelled at for standing in the way of one table and the screen. honestly, one home run looks like every other so you might as well just listen.

kisses to all

aawwww i really wish i was drunk now

I'm getting there! I hope I can, in my inebriated state, create a decent composition. I wish I could write it in Danish or even German. Seems like one should be relatively sober if one must create a composition in English. Blecch.

The other evening, I saw a grand slam. I think it was by Chicago. The teams all look alike to me. But finally, I am beginning to understand the game. Use the bat hit the ball run around the bases score.

Watch football, it's better

WOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Finally I am back.

I even read all the posts since I left in Ye-Olde thread..only 5 pages or so (I use über-maximum posts per page mode ). And I wilst answer one q now that was commented on like 2 pages ago.

I might go to PVD at the Riv in Chicago dependin on whether or not PhloTron is coming to town and if I am even in town. I may (I stress may because they did not update us while we were on the road on if we got the project or not) have to be in DC starting Monday the 17th to load in part of the new Xmas Carol at Ford's Theatre. Would also let me buy my dad's old car he wants to sell me cheap and drive it home. So I might not be in town that weekend, but I expect I would travel on Sunday anyway.

Onto what I am doing:

I am enjoying the fact that our flight landed at 8 am and I am getting paid 100 bucks plus 45 bucks per diem for the travel day today and I am already home

Am doing laundry and such reading the forums (I think I might not read any other threads in Chill-Out though I do have a whole day).

A little info on Branson, MO for you all as a warning. It is absolutely creepy. "The Strip" as they call it looks a lot like the strip in Vegas on the surface. But teh place is too clean and it is all the wrong type of shows. Like this ass:


And there is virtually nowhere to get a alcoholic beverage served to you (tons of places to buy beer if it is made in St.Louis, though we did find a place that sells Shiner Bock ) add to that the fact that there is not a single strip joint in town much less a woman in the town that would even be attractive enough to work at one and you can get the drift. The Irish Dance show even has the women wearing black leggings instead of showing off their legs in those nifty little skirts.

I am tempted to book a flight to Vegas for tonight last minute so I can hang out in a seedy locale to "cleanse" myself of the hillbilly-ness.

The one and possibly only redeeming thing about the whole place is the Wildfire coaster at Silver Dollar City (where we were working) It is prettycool though small.

Oh btw....iTunes is available for Windows now so everyone can be like me and listen to music with über customizable playlists and nifty song browser functions

I decided I was goign to check on where I could go spur o the moment on my long weekend and was oh so close to booking a flight and hotel deal from Chicago to London for 475 bucks. But, alas, I don't think I could swing it seeing as I would have to be back at O'Hare in 4 hours and I still have a lot of laundry and such to do. I do think I know where I am going on my next mini-vacation though

No.


I was tempted to get out of the car and piss on the ghastly sign in front of his theatre when we drove by. It is a typical billboard with a giant 3d yakov head punching through it and a mechanical arm waving an American flag. über-gaudy.

Branson was a nightmare. I was only gone 8 days and it feels like I was there for a year.
