I really would like to meet some MC'ers someday.

Never visited NYC before either. So, come Friday, I may be pretty excited.

I saw the Orioles are playing the Yanks the week I want to go, which makes it seem like it's meant to be.

Hope I can see some of you guys that week. Even cooler if I can rent out a couch that night! :lol:

Where you at MC bitches?

I'll go. I graduate on the 4th but I can be down in NYC early on the 5th. (sat)

edit: I haven't been to New Yankee Stadium yet either. I'm so in. (decked out in Sox stuff of course)

The shit eating grin smiley is broken. This makes me sad.

At some point I'll go to Canada. I think its bullshit that I have to get a passport, though. Its freakin' Canada, man...

Yanks play the O's 1-3, and then are out of town. But I'm sure we can do something else.

Is Cinco De Mayo celebrated at all in NYC?

There's a Red Sox bar in Manhattan that doubles as a LOST bar. I think it's pretty funny.

When I was a kid, we wandered over to Canada all the time, usually with just our drivers' licenses, but sometimes sort of by accident with nothing but our bright shiny faces.

It was a more innocent time.

Are you actually asking if New Yorkers participate in any day that excuses excessive drinking in public?

My bad, :lol:. A lot of people outside of CO don't even know what Cinco De Mayo is. Kind of like green chili...

Red Sox/Lost... Strange.

I don't even watch Dr. Who, but I want to go to there. I forgot to mention, nice article on it 8.

Well, they don't do the LOST events anymore since the show ended, so I think it's just a Red Sox bar now. The numbers are still on their shutters, but I think that's it.

Yesterday night I started my cineclub with Polyester by John Waters, accompanied by a home-made version of Odorama. The month's theme is family problems. Heavy rain fell down and yet close to 30 people came. I was happy as a fucking midget. We'll continue showing movies every Monday.

A little, but the show did have a few Red Sox references. It was a little weird when they did the weekly screenings because they have two floors and they'd do the LOST events upstairs and keep the downstairs a sports bar, and it'd be like two different crowds.

Oh, thanks. The owners posted a link on their Facebook page and Twitter feed, so that was cool.

Last Saturday, while waiting for the bus, I saw four different groups of people in St. Patrick's Day gear drunkenly bar-hopping. At 2 p.m. 2 weeks before the holiday.

Apparently, we also take drinking holidays very seriously here.

Keep me posted on your plans E. I'd be down to party with MCers for a night. I would also need to try and find a place to crash. Only takes me 3 hours to drive to NYC, 4 hours to take the train.

Will do. Will probably plan at the beginning of next week.

St. Patricks Day is the worst.

Why ruin a perfectly fine trip to NYC watching the Orioles attempt to play baseball?

This is awful of me, but the worst thing about distant family members I don't really know dying is figuring out what to say to their immediate family without sounding like a twat.

I have this problem with people that are even close to me. "Sorry for your loss," just doesn't seem right. "Let me know what I can do," seems kind of blegh.
