No Happy Hour For The Rest of the Year - Spend Some Time With the People You Love, For Cryin' Out Loud!

The schedule for this week is generally crapped up what with Christmas pageants, white elephant parties, shopping for the mistress(es), etc. occupying your time.

So it is hard to get everybody together for drinking and debauchery, at least in a group setting. And next week is supposedly somebody's birthday (even though it really happened in June) and the following Thursday is when we start a new orbit around the nearest star, so those aren't good dates. The inescapable conclusion is that we are all out of MOTMs for this year. Let's all go have a nice holiday and reconvene sometime in January.

However, if any of you want to grab an ad hoc drinky-poo, hit me back and we can hook up (whatever that means these days).

Anyway, if you love someone (or just want to get in their pants) give them a hug and tell them how you feel. You may not get another chance. Really. An acquaintance of mine (younger than me) died in his sleep last night. This is not the first that I have known. Anyway, don't wait. Take the advice from a pathetic old man in a bar.

And, to get you in the Christmas spirit, once again I leave you with best redneck Christmas song ever.

Peace on Earth. Out.

REMEMBER: MOTM - Tonight - 5 pm - Peche

Come one, come all. Step right up. For only one dime, one thin dime, one-tenth of a dollar, see the greatest show on earth. See Jo Jo the dog faced boy, tightest skin on any man in captivity, etc. etc. Back up, boy. Quit throwing dust in Jo Jo's eyes.

None of you are old enough to remember anything like that, but your attendance is still requested at Peche (208 W. 4th) tonight to witness the marvel that is the MOTM. All your friends will be there (if you don't have many friends), so you should be too.

See you there.

Peace. Out.

MOTM Tomorrow - Peche - Be There or Be Square

Prepare your minds for the seasonal magic that is MOTM. Tomorrow night at Peche on 4th between Colorado and Lavaca. It will be epic. Festivities convene at a little after 5 in the pm.
Believe me, you do not want to watch TMZ on Friday and wish you had been at this MOTM. Just saying.

There will be chicks and guns and firetrucks. (gratuitous Bachelor Party reference. Back before Tom Hanks was somebody)

Topics for discussion will include:

• How much Longhorn fans love the BCS
• Remind me again. Who exactly is Mike Leach? (J-Spot, this question is now appropriate)
• Is it appropriate to give sexual favors as gifts during the holiday season? And how exactly do you wrap such a thing?
• What is a caganer and what does it have to do with Baby Jesus?
  

Other things to contemplate:

On Comet and Cupid and Donder and Flasher:

How difficult would the trip down the chimney be for these?

Does this help?

And for those of you that appreciate this kind of thing:

Peace. Out.

MOTM - Thursday, December 4, 2008 - Peche

OK, we have missed a couple of weeks what with holidays and all. So, let's convene this Thursday at a little after 5 pm at a new spot at 208 W. 4th called Peche. I don't know how to pronounce it either. For the old timers in the group, it is in the space that used to house Malaga (I couldn't pronounce that either), which is a couple of doors to the east of Fado on 4th. It's nicely remodeled and has some unusual drinks, including some kinds of absinthe. Let's try it out.

I hope each of you had a nice holiday and are now ready to get in some serious happy-houring before the next holiday stretch.
Here's some topics for discussion: Someone is now making perfumes that smell like universities. This particular one is supposed to smell like Penn State. I'm sure they will make one for Big 12 teams also like Texas and Oklahoma. The one from Oklahoma will smell exactly 0.0128 better (if evaluated by a computer).
Here's a gift idea for that person who has everything (including a couple of keys of chronic). One size fits all.
Peace. Out.
