Lake Hashertrain

( Hashing and NOLA and Drunkery )

Now that my knee has sufficiently healed, I’ve been very happy to be able to be hashing again, and I’ve been making a point to go on Mondays with NOH3. When this month (and my temporary re-instatement to Rollerderby Refdom) expires, I’ll be hashing with VooDooHHH.
Last night was much fun, and Mikey was able to […]

Baptized in Beer

( Hashing and NOLA and Drunkery and Amusing )

Last night marked my grand return to hashing. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to do it lately - from the DST switch to Sunday afternoons/evenings, to the busted tailbone, to the busted knee.
It’s been a while.
Anyways, the hash started went a little something like this (errors included):

 
This translated to ~4.2 miles. Considering how long […]

Hooked on Tonics Works for Me!

( Kickball and Drunkery and Amusing )

Well, it would appear that I have taken a bit of a blog vacation as of late - there’s been much going on, and I really haven’t felt much like writing.
So, I’ll dedicate one new post per event/happening over the next few days to catch up.
Up first (in non-chronological / importance-level):
I’ve joined a kickball team: […]

Bars w/o Pants

( Drunkery and Amusing and Cycling )

Most of you live ’round here, so know what yesterday’s weather was like. For the rest of you, and for posterity, it was gross. Temp in the lower 40’s, with a RealFeel in the upper 20’s, according to AccuWeather.com. Varying levels rain from misting to not-quite-downpour.
I left my office at Lee Circle and rode up […]

Big Weekend.

As much as I hate to admit it, I think I’ll look forward to Monday, with my weekend looking like this:
Friday: Main office X-Mas party, other office X-Mas party.
Saturday: rollerderby double-header, afterparty
Sunday: Cribbage (it is extreme, yo), Saints game, Derby X-Mas party.
Busy. And I’m keeping my eyes on other football games this weekend.
Here’s what would […]

Happy 21st!

( Drunkery and Amusing )

On this day, in 1933, the 21st Amendment was ratified. Prohibition was ‘asploded!
So, in the immortal words of the Red Stripe advertising campaign: HOORAY BEER!

And now, a picture of a beautiful man (only because of his beer):

Cube root of 64

Three fours:
1) Number of days since I’ve started the “detox”. I had a partial beer at a beer brew on the fly on Saturday - as doing it to not be rude, and the beer was delicious. That was all I had, even through the later, nail-biting LSU victory. Jason (the brewer) is the […]

A break from a break?

( Drunkery )

For no other reason other than it seems like a good idea, I am going to detox for the next two weeks. Nothing too strenuous or rigorous, mainly just no drinking. I have some yogi detox tea that is actually quite tasty, and I reckon I need to ask Herr Google about additional methods / […]

This should be about Alaska but…

I haven’t gotten around to that. So in lieu, three things:
Congrats to Mikey, whose team will compete in the DARPA Grand Challenge with two new friends/hashers of mine, Just Matt and and Just Aaron. Go Team Gray!
Tomorrow is the Red Dress Run.
Secondly, tonight is the first Saints home game of the season! Who Dat!, Bitches!

¡Viva ze Bool!

( Hashing and NOLA and Drunkery )

So a friend and skater, Archbishop Pummel and her boyfriend have started up something cool.
This July 7th (known this year as Maggiepalooza™), the first ever San Fermin in Nueva Orleans will take place at 8am in the French Quarter - the same day the original Spanish event will be taking place in Pamplona.
I’ll be running. […]
