I was talking with Zenchick (insofar as one can actually talk via a series of ones and zeroes that have been converted to words displayed on a screen by an email deliverating program) and she came up with the idea of having a blogger happy hour. I don’t think one has been hosted in some time. Maybe months. Months!
So, to rectify that, (he he he, “rectify”) we’ve decided (me an’ Zenchick) to join forces and host a happy hour on September 1.
Now, we know September 1 is a Friday, and it’s the Friday before Labor Day, and you have “real” friends that you want to get drunk with, pass out with, and wake up with each other’s clothing on, and that’s fine with us. It really is. But, you could get started on that sexually questionable path of debauchery with us at No Idea Tavern in Federal Hill.
At this point, some of you are probably thinking, “Federal Hill? I don’t want to go to some yuppie bar with a bunch of wannabe socialites, trust-fund hipsters, and middle-aged frat boys. It’s too expensive, there’s no place to park, and generally, Federal Hill doesn’t need any of my money.”
But wait! No Idea is on the very edge of Federal Hill, so the crazy parking isn’t an issue. You’d have to drive 4 blocks to find a sign that said, “1 hour parking, you pathetic, working-class poor-person.”
And because Federal Hill-ites hate anything below their tax-bracket, they all stuff themselves into Mother’s, revel in their whiteness, and pretend everything south of West street doesn’t exist.
And the drink specials! Oh, let me tell you about the drink specials. The last time I was there, they were selling all-you-could-drink Yuengling for a dollar between 4 and 7. I spent one dollar and had 4 Yuenglings. You can’t beat that price! You can’t beat it with a sack full of doorknobs! Currently, they’re running a deal for 20 oz. Miller Lite Drafts from 5-8pm for only $1. That might change between now and then, but the Friday happy hour deals are ALWAYS affordable. You can get drunk with just the change in your couch!
So, in summation:
Friday, September 1, 5pm - ? (the question mark means you know it’ll be a crazy good time)

Its times like these when I wish I lived in Baltimore…….
You know, the lack of a Happy Hour of late had been swirling around in my head. It has been some time since one of these soirees took place. Nice to see someone step into the breech.
That said, I am both off that day and live in the neighborhood. Thus, I have no good excuse to not make an appearance. Unless, of course, I did not want to consort with the unwashed blogging masses. ;-)
sweet, that is the day of my first registration exam, so i woul be pleased as the proverbial punch to end the day boozing it up with some people who i know only by the aforementioned 1’s and 0’s.
whiteness revelry… lol.
HUZZAH!
Crap! I don’t get into the city often (used to work on St. Paul but don’t anymore). I always hear about this “Federal Hill” place HAHA. Wish I could be there, but I’ll be in Vegas getting hopefully waaay drunker at the penny slots.
Snay-always so, um…concise.
Zen, if you want to be verbiose, read my post titles sometimes.
or …
You can call it a “blogger happy hour”, but I call it, “The Malnurtured Snay Dot Net Two Year Blogiversary.”
to meet the snay on his blogiversay is cause enuf.
damn i caint spell for shit these days
I think we might be able to take a break from renovating and get drunk.
Maybe then we can renovate WHILE we’re drunk. Awesome! We will have the coolest house on the block.
snay: verbiose?
is that like verbose?
and I was talking about *you*. I am plenty verbose :)
shit how am i gonna get there in time?
No Idea Tavern is owned by a Yankees fan. That alone makes me not want to go, but the fact that I could possibly-perhaps-maybe see you f*ckers tipsy and drunk will definitely make me want to go.
Will you pay my airfare from Texas? If so, I’ll buy you a drink. Hell, I’ll buy you two.
Aw. I will be away for my birthday…the big 4-0. So please, raise a glass for the Princess so I might be there with y’all in spirit?
Have fun!
CP.
Can I drink and socialize by phone?
someone’s gotta be geek enough to set us up a video conferencing webcam system for the augustemberblogiversaryhappyhour :P
HEY!! about those DC workers…..can we come late? Like, maybe….6:30-ish?
and you know, Fells Point is wayy cooler. BUT–I’ll trek to your side of the pond for an evening. ;)
