KS superbowl party for the last 21 years has been hanging with KS friend Sam the Butcher.  Parties used to be bigger, but always able to watch game.  This year will be Sam the Butcher and wife, KS, MKS and the stalkerette (sam has tv with combo DVD/VCR with lots of movies for stalkerette, but she likes to watch football with daddy sometimes, not bad for a five year old.)  Sams sister in law and husband, sometimes their oldest son.  Maybe one or two other friends.  The women stay upstairs for most of the day and leave us alone in the basement with the 72 inch HDTV, stocked bar with full size fridge always full of various beers and about 15 pounds of prime rib on the rotisserie outside.  KS entire family knows that on SB Sunday KS is at Sams house and almost nothing can stop him.

gro....1 of 2 things is happenin w/ that invite...either this girl thinks and wants you to be the life of the party i.e. chit/chat make jokes, schmooze with all the guests so everyone has a good time or....she or one of her friends wants to get to know gro a little better and invited you just for that purpose of having a few cold ones and loosen up....because no sane woman would invite a man to a sb party not knowing who was even playing....suzy kolber maybe go to the party and talk strategy and man to man vs. 2 deep zone but this chick wants the party time with the tv on in the background type of gig...no dice!!

invitee has a man friend (she's 24, he's 35... that's not a boyfriend that's a manfriend) he wanted the party and she wanted to cook so she invited some of her work friends (gro, others). Manfriend is ok but not for 4 hours in a small apartment with workfolk who are only going to talk about work and showcase their lack of football knowledge (did the announcer just say "scream pass?"). Invitee has a few girlfriends who also have manfriends so Gro would be odd man out either way. Did I mention that invitee and none of her friends drink?

Um, Enginegro...Run and run far and fast.  No booze or brew?  Are you kidding TDT? 

[PBR...]

pbr is all the more convinced gro that if every one has a significant "other" at the party your being setup w/ someones single friend they havent told you that they will be attendance i.e. blind date....they will expect you to converse w/ her the entire super bowl....stay away from that place like it has the plaque

Re: Barbaro

you fought hard little buddy, now hump a few mares and die with some dignity.

According to ESPN and the Associated Press, Barbaro was euthanized Monday morning.

No sh!t, 'gro, TDT is right. Now that we have all these facts in front of us, clearly your 1st mistake was telling her you had no plans, and your 2nd was telling her you'd consider it.
I'd start coughing like hell around the office so she knows you might be dead by Sunday. Then go watch the game with plenty of buddies and brew. Take Monday off so she knows how sick you really were.

Reminds JT of the office SB party one year.    This one "dood"... (JT nicknamed him Tinkerbell) was fascinated by the shot gun formation.  How could the fat guy "skootch" the ball back to "that other guy" without looking.  He looked at JT when he said it.   First its called snapping the ball and secondly its a feel thing after you've snapped it few hundred times you don't need to look, said JT.

But then he kept saying "skootch" throughout the game.  By half time JT had it.  He told him that if he wasn't going to say snap, he was going to break a TV tray over his head.
Tinkerbell moved to the other side of the room.  Side benefit.... Tinkerbell no longer called JT for systems support/design issues, but now annoyed somebody else.

Always say... I've got a few offers and I haven't decided.  I'll let you know.

Gro appreciates the advice, if gro was caffinated at the time he would not be in this predicament. gro "has some friends coming in from out of town"... will deploy that one on wed/thursday.



Barbaro, I miss you already.

So JT and FMJT were flipping channels last night when he stumbled upon a PBS showing of the Rolling Stones "Rock and Roll Circus" circa 1968, but not released until the 90's.  Basically a major jam session with the big British acts of the day: Stones, The Who, Eric Clapton, John Lennon.  Pretty cool DVD with one exception.  The highlight or lowlight is Yoko Ono corrupting a nice little R&B jam with her avant garde wailing.  Basically sounds like a cat in heat.  Small wonder the Beatles broke up.  Could any one of the LLPP hang with their friend with a wife like this?

JT figured it had to be on youtube, check out the violin player giving John Lennon the eye, hoping he'll shut her up.

Here another clip where John's jamming with Chuck Berry and Yoko ruins another great jam.  Berry about wants to kill her:

BTW guess how JT woke up FMJT for work this morning:

JT: AAAHHHHHHHH YEAAAAAHHHHHH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH YEAHAAAAAAAAAAAH AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!

Man was she pissed.... JT couldn't stop laughing.

[superman57]

[PBR...]

whoa for a second pbr thought we were going to get a x-rated look into the life of JT....

Nah just JT's Yoko impression at 100+ Db at 6:30 AM standing just outside of slapping range.

[PBR...]

pbr could never figure who thought she might have any kind of singing voice...she sounds like verne on that vh1 reality show when he was drunk and passed out making that weird f'n noise while sleeping a cross between snoring/speaking in your sleep
