For those about to drink, we salute you!

17:41 / 28.02.07

Looking at my posting at the moment, maybe I *should* be drinking.

17:43 / 28.02.07

DRINK BOOZE.

It's good for you. It's like pie, only boozier.

17:44 / 28.02.07

All right, all right, I'm getting off this thing and going for a drink. On a patio. In seventy-degree sunshine. Surrounded by doggles.

18:21 / 28.02.07

You all only like the word Doggles because you *know* I can't think of a feline opposite that sounds good.

Booze can be a beautiful thing, but not, alas, tonight, for me. Tomorrow, unfortunately, is most probably going to be a very, very painful day, and a hangover would make it - you can trust me on this - exponentially worse.

18:42 / 28.02.07

You'll be able to come and join us on Booze Island afterwards, though, yeah?

18:44 / 28.02.07

I'd very much like to, yeah.

I'll definitely be on Booze Island this weekend. Oh yes.
Possibly even with Honey Vodka.

18:52 / 28.02.07

Arrrhhh! Good to see so many out on L'Ile de Boozay tonite! I'm having a post-seminar tipple, also motivated by the fact that I need to motivate myself to write a job application/cover letter thingie tonight. Man, me hates that. I'm just not any good at all for that... Hence booze. And this, posting when I should be coverletterwriting.. Damn. GET YOUR PRIORITIES STRAIGHT, YOUNG MAN!

Doggles, huh? Waddaboud.. catsies?

Twice

19:21 / 28.02.07

And one foot in Codeine Cove, too. Mickey Blue Eyes is on the telly, and the anouncer told me it's got more laughs than The Godfather. That's good.

20:08 / 28.02.07

Yes, but seeing Hugh Grant acting out trying to say "Fuggedaboutid" is something never forgotten, believe me.

Twice

08:22 / 01.03.07

Oh, I'd drifted off to sleep by then, sadly. I dreamed I was on a beach and a massive white churning wave broke over me and I stood up and said "Phew! That's better!" and then I went and climbed a great big peak. Gosh. You do't think there's something lacking in my life, do you?

12:56 / 01.03.07

I'm off to Booze Island once more... see you all when I get back from the pub.

14:14 / 01.03.07

I envy how much Stoats gets to have free time on Booze Island. I really do. (Shut up, liver.)

15:27 / 02.03.07

Yup! Friday again! Man, time flies huh? Like a pint of lager sailing over the head of the barkeep! So, yes, M. Nolte, yours sincerely, is about to shift his wee bum down to the pub and start inhaling a gallon or so of beer. But. Inspired by Stoat's post here I ask you - what is the best, just plain good, or indeed plain evil game to drink... er.. with? To?

Prepositionally challenged salutes to you! GO NECRO!

COG

15:59 / 02.03.07

It's not a drinking game as such, but I'll be hitting the wine with some Nomination Whist tonight. I need to beat some people who beat me the night that I taught it to them. My plan for this is to add a bottle of wine to the beers that I had in the sun this afternoon. Foolproof.

On the good side, at least I'm getting my dinner cooked for me.

17:02 / 02.03.07

I will drink some booze this evening. Not a lot of booze, but enough for numb-time.

Want numbtime.

17:13 / 02.03.07

I've just been to the pub. Now I'm on the booze I bought at the shop. Fuck, my passport now has so many stamps you can barely see my face.

17:17 / 02.03.07

But the eyepatch is still recognisable.

Dutch

22:38 / 02.03.07

On Booze Island, and my rat is having babies. I'm wondering how many there'll be. And Captain obvious says: "also, drunkenness increases the chances of having conversations best not had."

hmmm, moonuts.

Saint Keggers

22:39 / 02.03.07

Im drinking wine left over from supper. It was chicken. The supper, not the wine.

16:46 / 16.03.07

WEEEEEEEEEEKKKKKKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNNNNDD!!!!

And not just any weekend - it's Paddy's Day weekend! Booze Island will be draped in green, flowing with stout and whiskey, leprechauns will be roasted on great big spits, and there will be merry muchly! For those about to get knacker-drunk!

16:56 / 16.03.07

St. Patrick's Day is also my last full day in this awful town and this awful way of living. Booze island will have a small crow of weeping students going through it's passage ways, like a crowd of mystic nuns performing rituals on the streets of Venice.

And I will be performing in a Hepburnathon, with a mask, boa and dress. There will be many of us, we will have martinis. And I will have taken some not-strictly legal medicine, so I might be hugging people too.

Dutch

17:05 / 16.03.07

I shall be spending my time on booze island for a bit as well, watching the people get ready to paint it green while reading and enjoying a few cheap beers.

Maybe I'll stay until sunday and get to see the cleaners helplessly trying to clear the boulevard of broken bottles and green puke puddles.

18:14 / 16.03.07

I have booze.

This makes me happy.

I am currently a person of simple pleasures.

19:04 / 16.03.07

I set sail as soon as I can stop reading Barbelith and hop in the shower. STUPID ORIGINS OF CHRISTIANITY STOPPING ME FROM GETTING SHITTY DRUNK

Enough. I'm getting in the shower and drinking mexican beer at the same time, I'm so ready to drink.

Tuna Ghost: Pratt knot hero

19:10 / 16.03.07

I've just realized that if I slip and fall in the shower, the paramedics (or my friends, or the shower elves, pr Robert Goulet, or whoever finds me first) will discover me wet, naked, bloody, and clutching a bottle of Dos Equis premium lager. I hope someone has the presence of mind to make a "he died as he lived" joke, just to lighten the mood.

13:52 / 17.03.07

Tuna - beer in the shower is vastly underrated. Cans, for safety.

We made it through Friday without suffering ethanuclear meltdown post facto. Bring on the booze! Whiskey ahead! All hands on deck! I see a darkness!

14:01 / 17.03.07

I'm taking it fairly easy on the sauce today, as I have to be reasonably coherent tonight when I'm MCing at the Morning Bride album launch. So I've just opened my first beer of the day, and am restricting myself to a very limited amount of alcohol until the gig, when I shall no doubt get shitfaced and make an utter cock of myself after my choherence-requiring duties are discharged.

16:17 / 17.03.07

Probably not going to get drunk today as have to pick up beloved from airport this evening and work in the morning.

But who could say no to a romantic glass of wine? Or three, for that matter?

16:31 / 17.03.07

Not you, I'll wager...

Bring the guy to Booze Island. We're all having a great time here.

16:36 / 17.03.07

He makes his own booze. How awesome is that?

But since he is coming to Atlanta to see me, then he'll not have his homemade booze. Luckily, I live within spitting distance of a few bars that will happily remedy that.

17:28 / 17.03.07

Wahey!

Look forward to seeing you both here on Booze Island. The weather's lovely. A touch of beer, with a incoming front of whisky promised for later this evening.

Spaniel

18:19 / 17.03.07

I will be swimming out to Booze Island a little later.

Oh yes, there will be swimming.
