Happy Birthday! I hope it was an enjoyable one.

Are birthdays relevant? Who cares, happy one.

Happy Birthday, yo.

Birthdays are overrated.

Have a good birthday!

It really doesn't matter to me how your birthday went--I just want to post.

i heard a rumor at the last show that vegtable man and ray davies were the same person............

god damnit! im not vegetableman!!!!

Then why is Sadie telling him happy birthday, huh? Huh?

I tease.

i think i may have started that rumor. i only do it because it makes him so mad. i was only kidding.

...or was i?

thank you for the birthday wishes. it was a swell occassion. contrary to popular belief, ray davies is not me. my name is johnathan and i live in nashville, though i do commute to MTSU for night classes.

That's a pretty good cover story, ray.

I am late but happy birthday

im not vegetable man!!!

I believe you bud:lol:

Speaking of birthdays (well, not really. I just didn't want to start a new topic for this...), today is the 2 year anniversary of my first post here. I can't believe it has only been 2 years. So much has changed. I tried to post this on the "New Year's Eve with JMB" thread found here, but it doesn't seem to work anymore. Yes, this is completely irrelevant.[

Nobody cares, Keith. You act like you've been within 10 posts of JamieCarroll's post count all week or something.

For the record, I was at that show and The Features were great. I left before JMB played to go to a party. I think that's the most I've ever paid to see the Features ($12?). And they only played for 40 minutes.

The other day I realized that we failed to observe the second anniversary of the message board's creation. Happy belated birthday, dear Features' message board.

Hey, that reminds me. I really hope De Novo Dahl does a New Year's show. Has anyone heard anything about this?

It worked, at least I read your post. But then again, I also saw that Forget Cassettes was playing at Red Rose on the 20th, so...

Yeah, for some reason it let me post there, but that thread wouldn't come back up to the first page.

-Yeah, I agree, YDDD. A DND show would make my NYE perfect. I love New Years shows.

-Congrats on your 2 year anniversary, Keith! Two years ago, life sure was a lot different.

-That Features/JMB New Years show was awesome. The rest of the night kind of sucked, though. While I was taking Shea Steele home, I took a curve too sharp and my unopened bottle of rum went flying and shattered, soaking the inside of my parents' car. Then the New Years party turned out to be just a handful of people playing Tony Hawk 3. So lawnwrangler and Nate Jennings and I set out to find an open IHOP, but after driving all the way to Rivergate, we couldn't find one and ended up eating at Waffle House.

I haven't had a really great New Years since 2000->2001.

I am going to try to see Josh rouse or sheppard of fools on new years.

My New Year's Evenings have always, always sucked. I'm going to look for something special and fun to do this year.

Who's gonna host this years message board New Year's Eve party?

My 99-2000 NYE was the only semi-bad one I've had in recent memory. That one was supposed to be a huge deal, but I just ended up at a lame party. I have a feeling this is going to be the worst NYE I've had in a long time. I can't wait until the holidays are over.


Sorry to be such a Scrooge.

Not if you're my date for Denny Diamond. Guaranteed good times!

And, as you know, I put out.

I'll think about it.

last New Years was awful. i guess i should've believed the wise saying, "beer before liquor, never sicker."

Yeah, I'm a big believer in that rule. I think that one, MAYBE two shots are okay after you've been drinking beer. Any more than that and you're asking for trouble. I know I've been burned before.

I've never had a problem making a clean break and going in either direction. Switching back and forth has always been the bane of my drinking experience.

lucky. a lot of my guy friends can do that and never get sick. going from liquor to beer is no problem, though. i dont understand how that works.

I have always heard to downgrade as you drink. For instance, if you start out with rum and coke, don't make your next drink with everclear.
Now for the "beer before liquor..."its time to dig up some old biochemistry knowledge (I knew I took that class for a reason!) The carbonation in beer causes your body to absorb the liquor faster so you get drunk more easily. This also explains why just a few shots after beer seem to be ok.
