Or just have a couple more beers... Hair on the dog...

LOL. Thanks guys, i feel so warmly welcomed! Although Groucho Marx once said he'd never want to be in a club that would have him as a member. But then, Fuck groucho marx, he's a queer bait anyhow-the degenerate club sounds like a fine organization, comprised of only the most venerable and upstanding members of the community- like monk and titey-beacons of light in the sea of infinite darkness that we call human existence...Man. Im delerious.

So Yeah, I got all of about 1 hour of sleep last night- We were allowed a 'cheat sheet' on our final (Stupid. IM in fuckin law school and the teach is pullin this shit, which i havent seen since the 6th grade). But, it was 2 sides of an 8 1/2 x 11 page, whatever you could fit. So i painstakingly put just about all the class material on there, in 4 pt font, and got to sleep at 7am. Brilliant idea! Going to sleep at 7 and intending to wakup at 8. I got to the final 1/2 an hour late because my ghetto ass alarm clock didnt go off, and my buddies all laughed at me as i walked in lookin like a truck just ran me over- backed up over me, then ran me over again-- and was like uhm...can i still take this thing?

So, armed with only a magnifying glass and a pencil, in a bleary eyed state of half consciousness nothing short of a bona fide stupor, i killed that fucker. hahahaha! Studyin is so overrated. Time to start drinkin some bourbon and playin some cards.

Tally Ho ya worthless yanks!

Monk wears a gown!

Only when I'm with you, honey bun.

Damn you guys, Hijackin my thread with your man-flirting! Just bite the bullet and go out and buy webcams, or else half/half on a ticket for flopmyflush to go to the happy land of scones and sodomites. The only thing separating you guys is the deep and dark atlantic...it seems so unfair, yet also...poetic, and even... beautiful in a way. Dontcha think?

Well, sorry to hijack your thread, but here is another story.

Unfortunately for me, my 21st b-day landed a day before one of my economics final exam. Of course, I hadn't studied much for it and i had to take it at 2pm the next day. Needless to say that the night before, I went out to the bars, my friends through a surprise party for me in one of there suites and I ended up getting plastered, puking on my friends floor, and waking up at 6am with a massive hanger and ready to study for my exam--not. I ended up doign well in my exam and have no regrets, Call me lucky I guess or call me idog, the alcoholic degenerate gambler. Yes, I know I need more help that Tightwad does. Wait I take that back.

2 things:

(1) drunken stories about finals are not a thread hijack-thats the whole point!

(2) NO ONE needs more help than Tightwad does.

one more thing:

Your an alcoholic denenerate gambler. Welcome to the club.

Okay, 17 things:

(1) Speaking of drunken exams, I spent exactly 7 months at college. I only passed one test, which was a German oral exam...I was completely stoned at the time, but I aced that fucker.

(2) What the hell does your name mean, Mecos?

(3) Ya frickin Mizer.

(4) Or is it Mizor?

(5) Whatever.

(6) Alcoholic degenerate gamblers rock!

(7) I remember this one time, I woke up pretty early by my standards, so I figured what the hell, maybe I'll take a walk, get some breakfast, enjoy the beautiful spring weather, because at the time, it was in fact spring, and the weather was beautiful, hence the term "beautiful spring weather", but for some reason, it took me like half an hour to find my god-damned left shoe, which turned out be in my refrigerator, and we can only assume this fact was directly linked to the 18 empty beer bottles sitting on my table, but anyway, that's not really the point, the point is that by the time I found my shoe and attempted to execute my grand scheme of taking a nice walk in the beautiful spring weather, and also something about getting breakfast...damn, I forget the point.

(8) Mecos, where's your signature from?

(9) Okay, I remembered the point, which was that after I eventually found my shoe, I did in fact take a nice walk and had a delicious breakfast. I forget what I had, but I'm pretty sure eggs-over-hard was an important part of it. Am I the only one that eats eggs that way? Perhaps. Anyway, the reason this is an important point is that while I was out eating breakfast, work called (this was back when I had a job) to see if I could fill in for someone. By the time I got back and called them, it turned out that they'd already found someone, so I didn't have to come in, BUT HERE'S THE KICKER...

(10) The kicker is that my coworker later told me that during her shift, the one that I was supposed to cover, there was a real humdinger of a traffic accident at the intersection right near the gas station I worked at. Apparently, something involved a car running a red-light and getting T-boned by not one, but two pick-up trucks.

(11) The moral is that if I had not taken so long to find my shoe, I would've been back from breakfast in time to get the phone-call, I would've gone into work, and been able to witness a traffic accident that far exceeds all of the rather humdrum one's I've seen to date. More to the point, had I not gotten drunk the night before, my shoe wouldn't have been in the refrigerator, so you COULD say that my drinking issues were at fault.

(12) Approximately 18% of the preceeding story was, in fact, true.

(13) God-damn, I'm running out of "things"...

(14) Skip to point 17.

(15) Skip this point.

(16) And this one.

(17) -TW

Points and / or counterpoints.

(1) Alcoholic degenerate gamboozlers do indeed rock

(2)My name...Well, ill tell ya that it means somethin en espanol, and it aint exactly 'agua', although some may find it more drinkable than water- specifically, the mothers of anyone reading this, and possibly kim cattral. This name goes way back to the dizzay, when EZ n dre was tite- and a the years wear on, it only gets less appropriate, and hence more amusing.

(3) My signature, hell i forget, i probably saw it on a tee shirt somewhere, or perhaps a bumper sticker.

(4) Technically its 'miser' as in one who mises (see MK journal entry number, something or other) but because (also technically) that isnt a real word, the rules applicable thereto are thereby rendered nonexistent, thereby relegating the phrase 'rules applicable thereto' to the realm of those phrases which are non denoting, which, ipso facto, relegates the instant sentence to the asheap of those things which are actually not sentences at all, because a sentence by definition has discernable meaning, and may not contain a non denoting phrase.

(5) An instantiation of the rule propounded above can be illustrated in the following non-sentence 'Titey is experiencing pain in his testicles'

(6) Interesting tidbit: In 30k+ hands, this is the FIRST TIME i cold called a raise from the cutoff, when i didnt have AA.
