all clear here GBHi, I am Homer and I have a drinking problem.
I have several pages to catch up on, but I vaguely remember being a total d-bag to somebody last night. Was it Sofa? Maybe Tiger Fan? I don't know, something about basketball. Anyway, I was also verbally violent toward several facebook friends, so don't feel special that I chose you to throw some drunken Irishness at.
So take my apology and shove it up your ###.
WHEEEEEE!

They haven't been announced, but I'm expecting that Artie Lange will be one since he was promoting it on his radio show. I'll report back afterwards. Hoping for Nikolai Volkoff and Hacksaw Jim Dugganwho are the roasters?

My link'cosjobs said:Come listen to a story about a man overfed
A poor ranconteur, kept his bank account in red,
Then one day he was pokin some young cooze,
And up from his belly gurgled tacos and booze.
Puke that is, butt-up style, Projectile.
Well the first thing you know Homer's chased out of town,
Seems the mayor's kid was the one who almost drown
When covered in bile from her crotch to past her neck
Homer blew the scene and left for Austin Tex.
Cos House that is, Stoner Poodles, free bed and board.
Well now its time to say goodbye to cos and all his kin.
And they would like to thank you folks fer kindly droppin' in.
You're all invited back next year to this locality
To have a heapin' helpin' of cospitality
Old hippie that is. fire one up, Kick back a few.
Y'all come back now, y'hear?
i love that these posts are within 2 minutes of each otherDude. Seriously.Why ya gotta be a downer? Let's talk about Homer-adventures, not building huts for desert-dwelling sandfarmers.Oh, i misunderstood. I thought you were talking about leaving Gatsby's for good. Aren't you in the middle of four months of dreary/miserable/cold at the moment? So you're talking about a plan for next year? DO you need to have a way to make money or are you saving some loot? I would offer this...1. Come to Austin as full-time Stoner Poodle Caretaker2. Volunteer for something in an impoverished area. I can certainly see the appeal of bartending at a beach bar in the Bahamas or packing around Europe having a beer in 15 different countries. But at least consider - for a moment - doing something for 4 months that will change who you are and change your perspective on the world for the rest of your life. Just a suggestion that I feel obligated to make to a person that truly can go anywhere.'Cause I can go tropical for a few months and come back here when the season starts up again.Fall in the northeast is awesome...carry that into the holidays with family and friends...and then my choice is either four months of dreary/miserable/cold Long Island or beaches/babes/sunshine somewhere near the equator. Which would you choose?

He wasn't actually fat. I was embellishing. He was likely much smaller than the average GMTANer. I'm not sure she needed my help but it's been a long time since I've been a wing woman, and she e-mailed me after to tell me what a good job I did.
Not any more. :fat:

I will agree that that is overkill. Also the final question, which is "what do we do if the media contacts us?" I can guarantee, and will post chet-money, that there is not a soul in the media that will give a good ####### about me. To answer immediate question, I still haven't a clue what I'm doing. When I have all the options in hand, I'll post a GMTAN-only poll to see WTF. I liked the fisherman story a LOT, though. WTMF am I doing continuing with this stuff?

K4 - if I had real freedom, no kid (although I wouldn't trade her for anything), supportive spouse, a way to not go broke either through savings or whatnot, and I was in your position I would:
Buy a one way ticket to Nicaragua. Sleep late every day until I forgot what an alarm clock sounded like. Drink good coffee all day until it was time to drink good booze. Surround myself with people and get to know them - everyone is interesting if you shut up and listen. And id write - a blog, a journal, a novel. I'd write things id want no one to see. I'd write things id want everyone to see.
Then id pack up and head back to the USA, landing wherever. Rent a car and get on the interstate and drive around looking for what's interesting.
I used to dream of being a rock star. I used to work hard to be one too. And I always imagined coming "home" from a tour and going somewhere random to find inspiration for the next record. Just checking in to a hotel in Del Rio or Tampa or Reno or wherever and strumming a guitar in the dark waiting for the next great song to emerge.
Eta - I equate an alarm clock to being a slave to someone else's schedule. I've used one about five times in the last five years since I started my business, mostly when we needed to get on the road for a holiday function or whatever. I'm so broke I can't see straight and my entire life is bordering financial ruin, but I'm never using a ####### alarm clock again. Peace be with you, and may you never have to report to someone else's clock again.

I'm pretty sure that as men (and YSRs) that we have to solve your problem now rather than just letting you vent.
Life is too short to make yourself so terribly unhappy because of stuff like this. All these people may leave and the may find themselves in happier situations as a result. If your company sucks so bad that you're the only reason they can stand to be there, they probably should also go.
ETA - Which is exactly what I would say if there was a relevant post that anyone made right before I posted this.

Krista, it looks like you removed your super-me-focused post, but you don't have to do that. You can vent here. And if Kacey is still looking for a fat guy from the suburbs, hook a brother up.

Hypothetically, I might have felt too me-focused, vent-y. But thank you guys, hypothetically, anyway.
kev, she'd be lucky to be with a guy like you, and you'd be lucky to be with her. Seriously just a couple of lovely people.

Night #2. A text to both them an hour ago went unanswered.It didn't happen. My flight kept getting delayed, then was canceled. Then I transfered to another flight, which was delayed. By the time I got here at 9:30, they were both in bed.

Sorry Shuke. Missed it.
