maybe this guy will be there, he looks pretty metrosexual:

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:48 (twenty years ago) link

not a good look for 2004:

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:49 (twenty years ago) link

That guy's pants are held up by A STRING!

AdamL :') (nordicskilla), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:49 (twenty years ago) link

you pull those drawstring pants up around your face and convert them into an airtight hazmat suit

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:50 (twenty years ago) link

Anyway, I DO hate taxes. More power to him.

AdamL :') (nordicskilla), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:51 (twenty years ago) link

Also-his blacks don't match.

Adam what about the fact that his FOREHEAD IS HUGE?!?!?!??

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:52 (twenty years ago) link

Aw Kyle that stinks... You should totally come a week earlier or later. (When't your wife's birthday, btw, cuz mine's Sept 6).

I'd invite you guys to stay with me if I had anything more than a loveseat. Ask hstencil.

Aaron W (Aaron W), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:52 (twenty years ago) link

that's the worst pokemon trading card I've ever seen.

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:52 (twenty years ago) link

I know nothing about Aaron W.'s alleged "loveseat."

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:53 (twenty years ago) link

hopefully we'll see you this year Aaron!

her birthday is actually the 1st.

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:53 (twenty years ago) link

That too.

Kyle, didn't you go for her birthday last year?

AdamL :') (nordicskilla), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:54 (twenty years ago) link

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:54 (twenty years ago) link

yes, it's what we do now for her birthday. hawaii was too freaking expensive.

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:55 (twenty years ago) link

I know nothing about Aaron W.'s alleged "loveseat."

I still don't know why you rushed off all of a sudden yesterday.

hopefully we'll see you this year Aaron!

Definitely! I'll gladly take some time off law school to wish you both well. Seriously, don't come during the RNC. Make it a week before or after. This city is gonna be insane.

her birthday is actually the 1st.

Ah well... No one's perfect. Especially us virgos.

Aaron W (Aaron W), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:56 (twenty years ago) link

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:57 (twenty years ago) link

it is the week after, though; we get there the last day of the convention (the 2nd)

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:57 (twenty years ago) link

These pictures make me think of San Francisco! Kyle will be right at home!

AdamL :') (nordicskilla), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:58 (twenty years ago) link

that last one is from San Francisco.

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:58 (twenty years ago) link

My bday is the same day as Aaron W, and if we are lucky Siouxie Sioux will be playing that day; I know, I never spell that right.

Virgo Mary (Mary), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:59 (twenty years ago) link

siouxsie? where where where? I hope so!

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 24 June 2004 22:59 (twenty years ago) link

are you trying to tell us something gabbneb? Either about yourself or Log Cabin Republicans?

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:00 (twenty years ago) link

Mary's bday AND Siouxie Siouxxxe. Best Bday evah.

Aaron W (Aaron W), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:01 (twenty years ago) link

I wonder if tickets are still available. If people are going on the 6th, I am up for going on the 6th as well.

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:03 (twenty years ago) link

you people still don't get that NYC will be partially destroyed by then, I guess.

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:04 (twenty years ago) link

I was waiting until someone who lived there said it so I wasn't accused of being all negative, h.

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:05 (twenty years ago) link

will the hotel rooms be cheaper after the TERROR?

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:05 (twenty years ago) link

I work 2 blocks from Ground Zero, what do you expect?

Also, if you and your wife go down there to take pictures during your vacation, I will be very disappointed in you.

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:06 (twenty years ago) link

we've been there twice since the first terror and we only go by there to go to century 21

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:07 (twenty years ago) link

kyle it'll be like Escape from New York - they won't let you leave.

l to r: kyle, me.

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:07 (twenty years ago) link

that looks just like me!

i will be referring to everything as "the terror" from now on, btw.

kyle (akmonday), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:08 (twenty years ago) link

1997 is long overdue.

xpost - good, Century 21 is great, taking pictures at Ground Zero is ghoulish.

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:08 (twenty years ago) link

I'm wearing pants like that while I'm out in Williamsburg tonight.

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:08 (twenty years ago) link

hstencil! i heard you were dead!

stockholm cindy (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:11 (twenty years ago) link

I just called BB King: tickets are on sale and still available for all nights:)

Mary (Mary), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:12 (twenty years ago) link

they take Visa, right?

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:13 (twenty years ago) link

Dude, it's everywhere you want to be.

Aaron W (Aaron W), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:15 (twenty years ago) link

except the Chicago House of Blues.

hstencil (hstencil), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:16 (twenty years ago) link

Hotels.com has The Pennsylvania at $109/night. They were in the midst of renovations last time I was there so it was a sucky shithole, but that was 4 years ago.

VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:35 (twenty years ago) link

See also Priceline.

VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:38 (twenty years ago) link

uh, I really don't think he wants to stay there, given the sentiments expressed upthread

gabbneb (gabbneb), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:41 (twenty years ago) link

I've stayed there twice; the first time (1992) it was actaully pretty nice, but the second time (2000) it, well, wasn't, but they were fixing it up. The fact that it's still around leads me to hope that they've finished their renovations but it's listed in hotels.com as a 2-star.

VengaDan Perry (Dan Perry), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:48 (twenty years ago) link

it might be very nice, but it's also across the street from the Republican National Convention

gabbneb (gabbneb), Thursday, 24 June 2004 23:51 (twenty years ago) link

Details.
