Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-29T18:24:13-04:00
BaKhan, help me out. There's a Denzel Washington movie where two guys break into a guy's house to rob them and end up killing his wife and daughter, but when they go to court, they get out free. The guy, it turns out, wanted revenge on not just them, but everyone involved in the court decision including the judge and jury. To kill the guys, one was sentenced to lethal injection for something else, but he switched the chemicals so it was a painful death. The other guy he tricked into being kidnapped and basically cut him into dozens of pieces while he was alive but paralyzed, including a pretty creepy thing about his privates that's not suitable for here. To spare you from the entire plot, Denzel hunts the guy down, puts him in prison, that doesn't work, he finds out he was going to bomb this building, so he puts the bomb in the guy's cell. Kinda funny.
I know the entire plot, but even then, I only found the title once by googling a description and a funny quote about what he did that wasn't suitable for here. I had it on a tab somewhere, but must've deleted it some time ago and it's surprisingly hard to find for some reason.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-10-29T18:57:51-04:00
I don't think I've seen that one Zem. What year was it from approximately?
Lord Zombitten 2015-10-29T19:23:42-04:00
Zem, it's a Jamie Foxx movie called Law Abiding Citizen.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-29T19:27:57-04:00
Yup, that's it. How did we find that when my brother and I were specifically looking at Denzel Washington thrillers?! No idea why, we just were, and saw that movie. The one we saw before it was John Q., definitely a Washington movie. Thanks, though! I can never remember it, nor will I now. Have to put it in my movies tab.
Lord Zombitten 2015-10-29T19:29:53-04:00
I googled "Denzel Washington movie bomb in jail" and the first result was the IMDB page for Law Abiding Citizen.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-29T19:33:01-04:00
Really? Even though he's not in it? And I've googled the plot points, even how a synopsis would sound, and had trouble finding it before. I think it's a pretty good movie, though I kinda spoiled it for you.
Lord Zombitten 2015-10-29T19:34:44-04:00
You made me want to watch it
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-29T19:40:46-04:00
Keep in mind that just after the judge's phone incident, my brother's phone rang. Literally right after it. He literally pulled out his phone, canceled the call, and threw it across the room.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-29T21:05:38-04:00
8:00, bored, no work really to do, caught up on youtube, bored of comics... that can mean only one thing! Movie night! Well, actually, the predecessor to my favorite current livestream/podcast had Rhett and Link on it, way back in 2011, so I could watch that, but THEN it'd be a movie night.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-29T21:35:15-04:00
Oh wow, I'd heard a sorority next to my dorm was going to have a party out back, but I didn't realize it was the one I can see out my window, nor that there would be so freaking many people there! Seriously, I'm too lazy to count, but there's upwards of 100 people there. From where I am, I can see the kitchens just going crazy trying to get all the food out there. I thought about crashing it, but looks like you have to pay or have some ticket to get food. They're setting up speakers, so looks like I'll have to shut my window here soon. Forgive me, beautiful 40 F weather! I'll be back soon!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-29T22:11:46-04:00
Kinda lonely here. Did you go to watch that movie, LZ? I kinda like it.
`
I seriously can't even see the whole party there. Like at least 150 people now, but I can't even tell how big it is outside of my view, but I can tell it goes back behind my building as well. Dang! At least the music isn't too loud to keep the window open. I'd feel like a grumpy old guy.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T00:42:51-04:00
It's just above freezing and yet that many people are outside partying! Whatever they're cooking smells like Schmeider wings, named for the guy who makes the best wings I've ever had.
Lord Zombitten 2015-10-30T01:31:49-04:00
No, I went fencing.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-10-30T08:48:33-04:00
Only 8 more hours until I'm free.
Happy Halloween everyone! And don't forget to set you clocks back one hour on Sunday.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T09:57:05-04:00
I'm dressing up as a lazy person who didn't really care enough to dress up for halloween. What are you going as?
And trust me, I'll definitely remember to sleep an hour extra. Don't even need a holiday for that!
@Geist: Not sure...I've never been formally charged with that, just asked to pick up our beer cans and take it home(they even followed us in their cruiser to the house).
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-10-30T11:50:52-04:00
I played first thing this morning and got a 670 score. I might try again if I have time this evening.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T11:52:23-04:00
Now I'm regularly in 400 to 450. I'm torn between team blue and team yellow, which has a cat. But blue is more appealing to my eye, so I'll primarily stick to that.
How the heck did you get 670?!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T12:03:01-04:00
Oh wow, now that it shows the scores per team, I'm on the wrong team! Should I stick with the eye-appealing blue or go to the kittens?! I still haven't chosen my loyalties, so there's still time!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T12:10:58-04:00
Wait, Geist. I got all of the first candy, 70. Assuming there are 70 of each, that would max out the score at 630. How did you get a 670?
Lord Zombitten 2015-10-30T12:23:03-04:00
Why is yellow so popular? Yellow is clearly an inferior color.
@LZ: I know they do, I was under one, and FAR above the other, but I got hit.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-10-30T12:38:49-04:00
Where is a Ghostbuster when you need one?
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-10-30T12:58:57-04:00
I'm surprised no one has mentioned that WHO has declared bacon as cancer causing. Other processed meats and beef were included on that list but...bacon is God's way of saying he loves us. How can that be bad for you?
@Geist: Mentioned it sometime last week...or early this week. My weeks tend to blend together.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T13:30:59-04:00
Actually, it's just that during preservation of mammal meats, the proteins become things that your body can break down into things that have a possiblity of interfering with cells. So basically, they become things that become things that give you a very slightly increased chance of colon cancer. And an 18% increase really only means you go from like 0.5% to 0.59%, with the base risk depending on age, gender, previous risk, family genetics, etc. But, the internet being the internet thought "they're takin our bacon! Kill it!"
@Zem: Practically anything, in the right quantities, can be lethal or life threatening to humans.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T13:32:46-04:00
Also, it cheats very much. I don't think that without a computer assisted game you could ever get all the candy. I've gotten up to 460. It just has to be a full centimeter below the back of your broom and you die.
`
LZ, I think it's the cat. It's why I switched from the more eye-appealing blue. Do the sounds change slightly color to color as well?
Lord Zombitten 2015-10-30T13:52:12-04:00
The best I've done is 477.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T13:52:45-04:00
The ravens are actually more annoying to me because they move at angles. But I realized I could just ctrl + scroll to zoom in and make it a nearly full screen game! And yet I still suck.
About 2 hours from now I will try to get out of here. Hopefully I can depart a bit early.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-10-30T15:00:14-04:00
Speaking of too...did you get my last email LZ?
Lord Zombitten 2015-10-30T15:22:28-04:00
Geist, I did. I need to get some packing materials, and then I'll be able to get you a quote
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T15:28:59-04:00
Hot sauce soon? Huzzah!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T15:30:07-04:00
Schoooooool's out for... the weekend. It's something. Hullabaloo, I'm done for now! I have stuff to do all weekend though. In the meantime, got the room to myself, meaning windows open for the cold and staying up till about 3 or 4 am!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-10-30T15:36:51-04:00
I can feel my intestine quivering in fear. To quote Anna Faris: "It burns so good".
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T15:43:31-04:00
I've been noticing all the opportunities to utilize the liquid fire in my every-day life. Bland food needs more spice in its life!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T16:00:00-04:00
This sandwich? Bland. This spicy soup? Needs more spice! These cheetos? Why aren't they fire cheetos? Stupid cookie isn't a hot sauce cookie! Why are these candy bars not capsaicin flavored?! And don't even get me started on this banana!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-10-30T16:09:03-04:00
I can only hope and pray it doesn't burn coming out the way it did going in.
*imagines the smoke alarm going off in the women's bathroom*
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T16:12:47-04:00
Oh gosh, Geist, I don't think we're thinking of the same thing! At least I hope it's not that spicy, is it?!
Yay...last drawer to empty out for these two filing cabinets. Then to get everything ready to fill it back up with more recent documents....and not stuff dating back to 2008.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-10-30T16:53:42-04:00
2008. The year I turned the big 40.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T20:16:05-04:00
Wow, in all that time, nothing?!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T20:31:33-04:00
Ah, duh, everyone left work, and now it's the weekend. Just cameos with one or two semi-regular appearances for the rest of the weekend.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-30T21:53:31-04:00
Boy, the way people are dressed, you'd think it was 30 degrees. Can't be less than 40!
I love that line from Blazing Saddles. "C'mon, boys! The way you lollygaggin around with them picks and them shovels, you'd think it was 120 degrees. Can't be more'n a hundred and four-teen!" Halfway through typing it, I realized I could make it into "The way you people are dressed, you'd think it was halloween!" but couldn't make it funny.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-31T02:05:18-04:00
Happy 1 am. You guys are lots of fun. Total party crowd here. I can't even sleep with all the shouting going on!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-31T03:09:44-04:00
Completely forgot about Exploding Puppies. It succeeded 2 days ago. I just hope they know what they're doing.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-31T12:24:41-04:00
Unfortunately, this round of Ginosaji won't go through. But now alot more people know about the project and they've committed to it whether they reach this goal or not. I just hope they take my advice and do another crowdfunding somewhere with flexible funding like indiegogo.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-31T15:15:40-04:00
Where'd everyone go? Do I have to call professor f in here to go streaking again?
Lord Zombitten 2015-10-31T17:41:21-04:00
No!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-10-31T17:50:07-04:00
Happy Halloween kittens. Night hasn't fallen yet but I'll be snapping pictures of the costumes later on. In the meantime, be safe and don't get into trouble tonight. I only got so much bail money to spare.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-31T18:12:46-04:00
I figured that would eventually bring someone snapping back, LZ. Also, I was going to keep commenting regardless of whether or not people came back in here, but one comment about every 3 hours on average doesn't constitute spamming or talking to myself, just being lonely. In a couple years when I'm the only one left here, It'll just be like pages and pages of me commenting to myself.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-31T18:14:55-04:00
Geist, so you're saying we can do something and call you for free bail?! LZ, our lazy business model isn't nearly as good as that one, so sorry, but I'm cutting the partnership so I can just have geist pay me to do illegal things. That doesn't mean you can stop giving me my cut of the hot sauce sales and blog income, though. Keep that coming.
And geist, I'm going to be sitting at my computer drinking coffee and avoiding anything resembling work, so don't worry about me.
Lord Zombitten 2015-10-31T18:24:34-04:00
I just put a photo on the litter box.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-10-31T18:37:53-04:00
Excellent costume LZ. You make a truely scary Jack Skellinton.
Lord Zombitten 2015-10-31T18:49:27-04:00
Thanks! I think it's the teeth...
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-31T19:08:56-04:00
Happy Halloween kittens. Awesome costume LZ. We'll definitely get one of BaKhan and I at some point in the night.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-10-31T23:13:24-04:00
Oh yeah, bet that's fun, GM.
`
Well that was pleasant. Met my dad and brother at Buffalo Wild Wings for some wings and then walked all around campus with cigars. Well, after a whole pot of coffee, my tummy wasn't feeling good, and with the cigar straight after, it really wasn't happy, but it got used to it quick. But it's definitely nicer to have a drink of any sort, especially water, to offset a cigar. My mouth is really dry. But alot of fun nonetheless.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-01T00:55:33-04:00
LZ, I was going to say "This is really interesting and funny! But I guess not very informative for you.", but then I realized hell, you may have posted this. Seems right up your alley! Probably not, but it's funny to think about.

I wasn't really sure whether One-Punch Man was as worth watching as the internet has been saying, but now that I decided to give it a shot, it's the first thing to actually make me literally laugh out loud since I watched The Rutles, that satirical Beatles documentary by Eric Idle! I'm not even a huge anime fan, but I'm only 2 episodes in and already wish I had waited longer so there would be more than 4 episodes made so far!
Lord Zombitten 2015-11-01T03:21:04-05:00
I don't use vinegar, so that precludes me as the poster. Awesome post, though!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-01T03:27:47-05:00
Really? Vinegar is pretty normal in hot sauces. Do you just use water and fire? What do you do with the left over wind and earth?
Lord Zombitten 2015-11-01T10:36:17-05:00
I use lemon juice to acidify it. I know that vinegar is fairly common in hot sauces. That's a big part of the reason so many of them don't taste very good.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-01T12:20:58-05:00
Well, most of them are 99% vinegar, some salt, and a dash of flavor, which is why they taste bad. But alot of good ones use it too. But if your way works better, kick me in the eye if I'm getting in your way. You know alot more than I do.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-01T18:30:54-05:00
What a warm day it was today. Far too warm for the jacket and turtleneck sweater I had on. According to the weatherman, it will get as high as 75 degrees by Wednesday. I think Mother Nature is going through hot flashes
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-01T19:38:31-05:00
It was 75 here today. It should be 80 tomorrow. Thankfully, it'll cool down to mid-50s with some rain on thursday and stay there for awhile. Warm week. Maybe it's the last real warm front of the year and it'll stay down in 50s or thereabouts for awhile before winter.
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-01T21:39:55-05:00
AAAAAAAH!!!!!!! *drunk tears*. WORLD SERIES!!! KANSAS CITY ROYALS
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-02T05:47:27-05:00
Yippie! Wait, is that a good thing?
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T09:29:23-05:00
Good Morning Corps!
Micah "Zem the Mattress" Philson 2015-11-02T09:47:53-05:00
Geist, it's good for the whole midwest. The Royals are our team, but especially if you happen to be from KC. They won yesterday and made everyone happy for the first time in 20 years or so.
Unless creeper hates them for some reason and wanted her new home team, the mets, to win.
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-02T09:54:43-05:00
Morning. Another mild day. I got up early-ish and managed to get in a cardio workout. Now to keep it up for the next 4 days.
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T09:55:48-05:00
@Geist, yay! You can do it!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-02T10:19:22-05:00
How was the party BaKhan? Did you get to meet GM?
Rod "BaKhan" Mitchell 2015-11-02T10:27:26-05:00
@Geist, the party was great! We had a decent turn out around 30 people, which given that it was actually on halloween wasn't too bad! I got to meet GM! He is a tall lad, and was appropriately dressed as a lumberjack! It was really cool to actually meet a member of the KC in person! We need to do a meet up! My only regret was that we didn't get a chance to play a round of EK, but there will always be another time!
Geist de la Muerte Gatito 2015-11-02T10:38:23-05:00
Excellent! I know there are pictures posted in the litter box, right?
I had a fun time on Halloween. Played cards in an ice cream shop near the Georgetown college campus. Didn't see a lot of outfits until we left and started walking towards the subway. The sidewalks were packed and it was hard for me to get a good picture. I have a few and I'll post them in the litter box as soon as I can figure out my password.
BaKhan, help me out. There's a Denzel Washington movie where two guys break into a guy's house to rob them and end up killing his wife and daughter, but when they go to court, they get out free.

Oh wow, I'd heard a sorority next to my dorm was going to have a party out back, but I didn't realize it was the one I can see out my window, nor that there would be so freaking many people there! Seriously, I'm too lazy to count, but there's upwards of 100 people there. From where I am, I can see the kitchens just going crazy trying to get all the food out there. I thought about crashing it, but looks like you have to pay or have some ticket to get food. They're setting up speakers, so looks like I'll have to shut my window here soon. Forgive me, beautiful 40 F weather! I'll be back soon!

And trust me, I'll definitely remember to sleep an hour extra. Don't even need a holiday for that!
I'm dressing up as myself. Question is, which version? :P
I'm wearing a decorative head dress thingy for Halloween. I might go full costume next year. Maybe I'll visit Canada and celebrate next year. ;-)
@Geist: I think that would be awesome. If we could get more KC people together it would be the most awesome party ever!
I can see the headlines now:
Several people carrying cats holding mini bombs, drunkenly over ran the city screaming at the top of their lungs "NOPE!". News at 11.
@Geist: And there's a problem with that?
It's a plan! This is the plan for next halloween. Or even this christmas.
lol@GM: I dunno. What is the bail price for disturbing the peace in Canada?
@Zem: Christmas is a no go for me. Spend loads of time with family, but unfortunately I'm also working the 28/29/30/31.
I like the google thing for today! Go team blue! I really suck at it, but it's fun nonetheless. My record is like 370-something.
@Geist: Not sure...I've never been formally charged with that, just asked to pick up our beer cans and take it home(they even followed us in their cruiser to the house).
@Zem: 345 just added to team red. :P
I'm Jack Skellington!

2 hours and 15 minutes to go and then I will light out of here like a bat out of hell.
Me too!
About 2 hours from now I will try to get out of here. Hopefully I can depart a bit early.
Speaking of too...did you get my last email LZ?
Geist, I did. I need to get some packing materials, and then I'll be able to get you a quote
Hot sauce soon? Huzzah!
Schoooooool's out for... the weekend. It's something. Hullabaloo, I'm done for now! I have stuff to do all weekend though. In the meantime, got the room to myself, meaning windows open for the cold and staying up till about 3 or 4 am!
I can feel my intestine quivering in fear. To quote Anna Faris: "It burns so good".
I've been noticing all the opportunities to utilize the liquid fire in my every-day life. Bland food needs more spice in its life!
This sandwich? Bland. This spicy soup? Needs more spice! These cheetos? Why aren't they fire cheetos? Stupid cookie isn't a hot sauce cookie! Why are these candy bars not capsaicin flavored?! And don't even get me started on this banana!
I can only hope and pray it doesn't burn coming out the way it did going in.
*imagines the smoke alarm going off in the women's bathroom*
Oh gosh, Geist, I don't think we're thinking of the same thing! At least I hope it's not that spicy, is it?!
Yay...last drawer to empty out for these two filing cabinets. Then to get everything ready to fill it back up with more recent documents....and not stuff dating back to 2008.
2008. The year I turned the big 40.
Wow, in all that time, nothing?!
Ah, duh, everyone left work, and now it's the weekend. Just cameos with one or two semi-regular appearances for the rest of the weekend.
Boy, the way people are dressed, you'd think it was 30 degrees. Can't be less than 40!
I love that line from Blazing Saddles. "C'mon, boys! The way you lollygaggin around with them picks and them shovels, you'd think it was 120 degrees. Can't be more'n a hundred and four-teen!" Halfway through typing it, I realized I could make it into "The way you people are dressed, you'd think it was halloween!" but couldn't make it funny.
Happy 1 am. You guys are lots of fun. Total party crowd here. I can't even sleep with all the shouting going on!
Completely forgot about Exploding Puppies. It succeeded 2 days ago. I just hope they know what they're doing.
Unfortunately, this round of Ginosaji won't go through. But now alot more people know about the project and they've committed to it whether they reach this goal or not. I just hope they take my advice and do another crowdfunding somewhere with flexible funding like indiegogo.
Where'd everyone go? Do I have to call professor f in here to go streaking again?
No!
Happy Halloween kittens. Night hasn't fallen yet but I'll be snapping pictures of the costumes later on. In the meantime, be safe and don't get into trouble tonight. I only got so much bail money to spare.
I figured that would eventually bring someone snapping back, LZ. Also, I was going to keep commenting regardless of whether or not people came back in here, but one comment about every 3 hours on average doesn't constitute spamming or talking to myself, just being lonely. In a couple years when I'm the only one left here, It'll just be like pages and pages of me commenting to myself.
Geist, so you're saying we can do something and call you for free bail?! LZ, our lazy business model isn't nearly as good as that one, so sorry, but I'm cutting the partnership so I can just have geist pay me to do illegal things. That doesn't mean you can stop giving me my cut of the hot sauce sales and blog income, though. Keep that coming.
And geist, I'm going to be sitting at my computer drinking coffee and avoiding anything resembling work, so don't worry about me.
I just put a photo on the litter box.
Excellent costume LZ. You make a truely scary Jack Skellinton.
Thanks! I think it's the teeth...
Hey, I just found a satellite view of the EK shipping service! http://9gag.com/gag/a2q9Bb1
That really is an awesome costume, LZ! Really well done.
Thanks, Zem
Happy Halloween kittens. Awesome costume LZ. We'll definitely get one of BaKhan and I at some point in the night.
Oh yeah, bet that's fun, GM.
`
Well that was pleasant. Met my dad and brother at Buffalo Wild Wings for some wings and then walked all around campus with cigars. Well, after a whole pot of coffee, my tummy wasn't feeling good, and with the cigar straight after, it really wasn't happy, but it got used to it quick. But it's definitely nicer to have a drink of any sort, especially water, to offset a cigar. My mouth is really dry. But alot of fun nonetheless.
LZ, I was going to say "This is really interesting and funny! But I guess not very informative for you.", but then I realized hell, you may have posted this. Seems right up your alley! Probably not, but it's funny to think about.

I wasn't really sure whether One-Punch Man was as worth watching as the internet has been saying, but now that I decided to give it a shot, it's the first thing to actually make me literally laugh out loud since I watched The Rutles, that satirical Beatles documentary by Eric Idle! I'm not even a huge anime fan, but I'm only 2 episodes in and already wish I had waited longer so there would be more than 4 episodes made so far!
I don't use vinegar, so that precludes me as the poster. Awesome post, though!
Really? Vinegar is pretty normal in hot sauces. Do you just use water and fire? What do you do with the left over wind and earth?
I use lemon juice to acidify it. I know that vinegar is fairly common in hot sauces. That's a big part of the reason so many of them don't taste very good.
Well, most of them are 99% vinegar, some salt, and a dash of flavor, which is why they taste bad. But alot of good ones use it too. But if your way works better, kick me in the eye if I'm getting in your way. You know alot more than I do.
What a warm day it was today. Far too warm for the jacket and turtleneck sweater I had on. According to the weatherman, it will get as high as 75 degrees by Wednesday. I think Mother Nature is going through hot flashes
It was 75 here today. It should be 80 tomorrow. Thankfully, it'll cool down to mid-50s with some rain on thursday and stay there for awhile. Warm week. Maybe it's the last real warm front of the year and it'll stay down in 50s or thereabouts for awhile before winter.
*gasp* I think I found Sklorz! Behold: they're made of his favorite material! ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch…
AAAAAAAH!!!!!!! *drunk tears*. WORLD SERIES!!! KANSAS CITY ROYALS
Yippie! Wait, is that a good thing?
Good Morning Corps!
Geist, it's good for the whole midwest. The Royals are our team, but especially if you happen to be from KC. They won yesterday and made everyone happy for the first time in 20 years or so.
Unless creeper hates them for some reason and wanted her new home team, the mets, to win.
Morning. Another mild day. I got up early-ish and managed to get in a cardio workout. Now to keep it up for the next 4 days.
@Geist, yay! You can do it!
How was the party BaKhan? Did you get to meet GM?
@Geist, the party was great! We had a decent turn out around 30 people, which given that it was actually on halloween wasn't too bad! I got to meet GM! He is a tall lad, and was appropriately dressed as a lumberjack! It was really cool to actually meet a member of the KC in person! We need to do a meet up! My only regret was that we didn't get a chance to play a round of EK, but there will always be another time!
Excellent! I know there are pictures posted in the litter box, right?
I had a fun time on Halloween. Played cards in an ice cream shop near the Georgetown college campus. Didn't see a lot of outfits until we left and started walking towards the subway. The sidewalks were packed and it was hard for me to get a good picture. I have a few and I'll post them in the litter box as soon as I can figure out my password.
@BaKhan: My only regret was not being able to taste the garlic-cheese-deliciousness.
*perk* There was garlic AND cheese there? Oh man, I'm gonna have to dust off my passport and go traveling.
Am I to understand the sauce didn't make it in time?
@Geist, I will try to post the pics up tonight. My wife is going to send me the pics, so fingers crossed! Glad you had a good time as well!
@GM, well, if it makes you feel any better it was delish! ;)
@LZ: Nope, hasn't arrived(as of Saturday). Should be in BaKhan's possession sometime this week. Possibly even today.
