OK, here's the proper journal entry...
Friday night I hung out with the girlfriend formally known as PERHAPSEVIL (Who you will now know as VESPER)and her mum. After downing some pizza, I introduced them to the 1978 classic Foul Play. I couldnt believe that neither of them had ever seen it before. I mean, Burgess Meredith plus Kung-Fu equals comedic genius! Maybe next weekend Ill make em watch Seems Like Old Times, thus completing the Chevy Chase/Goldie Hawn circle.
Or did they do one more together?
Anyway, Saturday morning we watched Flesh Gordon! Damn fine film! And HOT! Though Vespers poor sis was thoroughly terrified by the stop motion penis monsters.
After hitting some thrift stores (Where we found the coolest plaster bust of Beethoven best $4 ever spent!), I met yet another sister and pair of nephews. And let me tell ya, if you ever hear three little boys exclaim, LETS GET HIM!, I suggest you run for your friggin life! They may be small, but they hunt in packs.
Anyway, her family just blows my mind. See, mine is uber compact, whereas hers has more twists and turns than a pretzel factory with the bends. (And if you recognize that quote, you get a cookie.)
Then, finally, it was on to the main event
MEDIEVAL TIMES!!!
Oh what drunken fun Even though our knight lost This is the third time Ive been, and Ive yet to get a winner.
Oh well, such is life But we noticed one of the horses appeared to have rabies, as it was frothing at the mouth. Actually, frothing is too mild a term. It looked like somebody fed the poor nag a box of dishwashing detergent, or something.
As the night wore on, I began referring to everything as Ye Olde As in, Ive got to go to ye olde pisser and relieve myself, etc. I realized I was getting a little tipsy when I refused to cheer the king, and in fact began booing him out of anti-royalist sentiment. I guess I was just loosing myself in the moment and succumbing to the authentic period atmosphere. ...What with all the laser lights and the actors wearing wireless head mics, and all
Thankfully everyone remained sober and conducted themselves in a mature and upstanding fashion
So after watching our knight have his ass handed to him, it came time for another faithful reenactment from the days of yore. You guessed it
YE OLDE DANCE PARTY!!!
Afterwards it was on to unravled's for the post-party. My brain was pretty beer soaked at that point, so Ill just let the pictures do the talking
Trouble...
This could almost be an album cover...
"My Baby! Look what they've done to my baby!!!"
The party gets interesting...
The party gets very interesting...
obd performs his famous "drinking through the nose trick!"
Ahhhh...
Anyways, after a good six ours of drinking, wed reached that point where we werent so much drunk, as we were in a bloated daze. We went back to Vespers and proceeded to sleep until a little about noon. Then back to my place for Fat Burger, Twin Peaks and more sleep...

I've been to that type of show twice when I lived in LV, the first time I was in the quiet crowd, so the next time I made sure that everyone in my section was cheering our guy on... and he was the winner (except then he gets beaten by the Black Knight who goes up against the king and loses).
