show and tell!

fun story to share-  

As I was serving snacks to 150+ people at this event my group was hosting over lunch, I kneeled down to pickup a bag of chips. Moments later, we heard a loud rip - my pants had split open straight down from my crotch to my knee!  What compounded the embarrassment was the fact that I was wearing red boxers with white polar bears on them - clearly not 'PepsiCo' style...

Later that day, I developed a deeper appreciation for staplers.

another year to celebrate

thanks for all of your recommendations - i'll be seeing a dentist and chiropractor soon!

now, i just need tips on where i can host a good birthday celebration, this Saturday - April 14th.

party venue requirements:
- relatively spacious
- good crowd, good music
- no absurd cover charges
- easily accessible (particularly with easy-to-find parking)
- some place similar to "Park" and "Slate"

any tips?

The "Best Man"

state: honored



so, i'm officially the best man at my friend's wedding.  it's coming up in july and the groomsmen will be fitted for tuxes this april.  this means that I have to start getting into shape sooner than I thought.  i bid farewell to the premier steakhouses and italian trattorias of chicago's southside, and welcome the smoothie breakfasts and sensible salad dinners after an 8:00 workout.

now, what really riddles me is planning the bachelor party.  do i keep it low key, conservative, and with a flair of sophistique, or do i go all out wild and raucous with major strippage, beers and boobies? 

guidelines:
- the man must enjoy himself
- the man must not engage in anything too regrettable (regret is subjective)
- the man must celebrate his last vistages of singlehood

i'm thinking dinner at hooters, racing funny cars or nascars at a race track, and then some minor heteros3xual lascivious action at some bar, club (gentleman's lounge?  no thanks, too dirty, too expensive)

i welcome suggestions.

"... in the words of the old country - L'chaim!"
