The Octagon Bar - Having Ourselves A Merry Freaking Christmas...

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Poor Dave.

I think I'm going to need an IV full of nothing but liquor from this moment on until New Year's Day.

April...

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Being told I'm way too good for somebody still doesn't erase things.

I'm so glad we get ten days off in two more days.

 

[DaveC]

Sounds like you need a more than me right now, April.

x 9

Oh, and :vodkacran: x 9, too.

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Thanks, hon.




9 vodkacrans? I think I've just died and gone to heaven.

 

[DaveC]

I'm really starting to think about Philadelphia for journalism school now. I really fell in love with that city on the U2 trip.

 

[LarryMullen's POPAngel]

Cool. All I really saw of it was Chinatown, the hotel, and the loading docks near the Wachovia Center. I should've gone sightseeing with everyone that day, but I wasn't about to leave the line.

 

[U2Girl1978]

I really really hate people sometimes. Why bother trying to schedule an appointment while you are driving??? WTF!

 

[U2democrat]

I just had to buy a 2nd copy of Achtung because my other one has been played so much every song skips

I got my U2 Vertigo DVD early today I've enjoyed it very much

s and drinks all around...sounds like people are having tough times in here.

Yeah, that's pretty much all I saw too. That and the Rittenhouse Square area and Center City when I went from the airport to Suburban Station to meet Jeff and Shannon before the baseball game. And the drives from the hotel to the airport. And South Street on Sunday afternoon.

You would have loved South Street.

I bet I would have! I wish my plane hadn't left so early so I could have hung with you guys that day.

 

[U2democrat]

Dave if you came to Philly for J-school I just may have to find an excuse to go up there...

 

[DaveC]

Well I'll apply to UPenn, Drexel, and Temple regardless. Probably also to a few other places down in the southwest (ASU and USC, for example). I just want to get the hell out of Nova Scotia and do something.

At some point before I apply though I'll have to make a trip down there in the next two years to check out the campuses/drink my face off in Old City, so I'll be sure to let you know when I'm on my way, Laura.

The magic 3-day number is now past, so I can officially drink again! So this round's on me!

 

[U2democrat]

You should visit DC just for the hell of it...I can show you around

 

[U2democrat]

Funny dave now that I read your sig, I was called a "glutton for punishment" by Gov-Elect Tim Kaine

 

[Techie2000]

I'm listening to this boot of the U2 concert I went to, my first U2 concert, and I still love it every bit as the first time I was at the concert. Just got to the part where they sang "Help" by the Beatles. Now waiting for the first encore!

 

[U2democrat]

So cool!

 

[Techie2000]

Everybody having a good time. Except you, you were talking like it was the end of the world!

I love this part...

 

[U2democrat]

I can play Edge's solo from the end of that song on guitar It's so much fun.

 

[Techie2000]

Sweet! Now I gotta love this one that comes after it...

You've been living underground, eating from a can. You've been running away, from what you don't understand...

 

[DaveC]

I still have the boot from my only U2 show, Philly 1. Lots of good memories whenever I hear it.

 

[U2democrat]

Best band in the world no doubt

 

[~BrightestStar~]

 

[U2democrat]

Nice to see you again missy

 

[Techie2000]

Wait a second, it's only three days to Christmas. I've only gotten one present for the people I'm getting presents for...

I'm going to burn a CD with the bootleg of the U2 concert for the person I went with for their present...

 

[DaveC]

Jackie!! Long time no see!

 

[~BrightestStar~]

Laura!
How goes it girl?



Dave! What, no hug pour moi?

How are you? It's been forever.

 

[U2democrat]

Indeed. Good times have been had in this bar.

 

[Techie2000]

We are growing old though. I'm starting to worry that my hair might gray soon...

But here, age matters not, it'll always be fun...

 

[~BrightestStar~]

Oh, the good old days.
le sigh
I miss them so.
