I’ve been drunk once or twice. At least I thought I was drunk. Watch this video and you’ll see the definition of drunk!
Drunkest Guy Ever Goes for More Beer – Watch more Funny Videos
From what I’ve read on the interweb, the new Dogfish Head Alehouse in Greenbriar Town Center will be opening next week. According to the DFH forums, it will be Tuesday, August 18th. There aren’t many places in the Fairfax area that have good beer. FINALLY! Now I don’t have to drive all the way to Falls Church or Arlington to enjoy some good beer. Let’s hope this news is true and I don’t go there Tuesday and look like a jackass sitting outside.
OH SNAP! Now I don’t have to drive all they way to Seven Corners!

My friends told me a rumor a few months ago that I did not believe was credible. It’s good to see that my doubt has been proven wrong. This news does not bode well for the temple that is my body. It’s on my way home from work! I just received an IM from my abs about how much time they’ve put in at the gym recently and that I should be more considerate of their hard work. My head also concurred. It stated that it does not like to be in physical pain on Friday and Saturday mornings. To them I say…
Please stop making those ads. They are not funny.
I keep hearing these radio ads for “The Most Interesting Man in the World.” Here are some examples describing said man:
When it is raining, it is because he is sad.
Even his parents’ advice is insightful.
If there were an interesting gland, his would be larger than most men’s entire lower intestines.
His shirts never wrinkle.
He is left-handed. And right-handed.
Even if he forgets to put postage on his mail, it gets there.
He once knew a call was a wrong number, even though the person on the other end wouldn’t admit it.
You can see his charisma from space.
Apparently there are video ads too. I’m not going to post them because I don’t want to waste your time. If you really want to watch some more unfunny stuff, go here. It sounds like this guy just wants to be Chuck Norris.
Everyone who lives in close proximity to Centreville has probably driven past this building. For the longest time there was a lot of curiosity about what was being built. Alto Plaza opened it’s doors earlier this year and Tom Sietsema from the Washington Post has given his review. I’ve heard bad things but this review is dismal. I do not think I will be dining here anytime soon.
So I’m in the office bathroom and this guy walks in. “Hello? Hello?” Is this guy talking to me? “Yes, full time.” Whew, at least he’s not talking to me. I listen in because I’m nosy at this point. It turns out this dude is doing a phone interview. Not only is he having a conversation on the phone in the men’s bathroom, but he urinated and flushed in the middle of this interview! What was going through this guy’s mind? He could not have left a great impression with the person he was speaking with. I don’t care how smart someone is, if I’m interviewing someone and I hear a flush it’s over.
Absinthe is now legal in the US! I guess I’m a little late knowing this.
I sampled the 124-proof liqueur last week, while watching the National Basketball Association playoffs. When diluted with water and a pinch of sugar, the absinthe’s taste is strong and pleasant. And the buzz has an odd way of focusing the mind — I’ve rarely been so entranced by the swish of a basketball net.
I thought the author was jacked up because he was talking about the NBA playoffs. The season just started, but I realized the article was published back in April. I’ve heard absinthe is pretty crazy stuff. I’ll be interested to see how people handle this stuff. We Americans don’t really do things in moderation. It looks like it’s only available in New York, New Jersey, and Illinois. I wonder how the guidos like absinthe.
Considering that my friends are not good at replying to my New Years Eve idea emails, the woman and I may end up doing our own thing. What we were interested in doing the most is rent a place in Snowshoe and go skiing after Christmas through NYE. If you’ve ever organized a group trip, you know how much it sucks. It’s hard to get feedback, communicate, and get money from people. It’s especially a pain if people try and get you to come get the money! I have a suspicion that I’m not going skiing.
If you love food like we do, here is a useful post from DC Foodies. It’s a list of all the restaurants that are doing something special for NYE. Some of the prices are pretty crazy and I’m not balling out of control just yet. Citronelle is $300 per person not including wine. Right now it’s more like, “That’s 4-7 rounds of golf!” I wonder if there will ever be a day where I’m just, “Oh, that’s not too bad! Let’s go there after I brush my teeth with foie gras.” Foie fights gum disease if you didn’t know. I’m probably not ready for those kinds of meals on NYE anyway. I still have that 21 year old inside me that wants to get hammer-timed. You don’t want to barf up a $300 meal. I’m definitely old enough that I’m not going to eat pizza and bread all day before partying like I did in college.
I hate the pressure I feel around the end of the year to have to do something cool. I guess I can reserve doing nothing for when we have little ones. What do people do other than drink or eat?
I found this on Yelp:
If you’re looking for a place to grab a drink on THURSDAYS, stop by EatBar in
Clarendon neighborhood (Arlington, VA). We do something called “Kill the
Keg” when we charge just $2 for a pint of beer that we are trying to finish
off so we can replace it for something new in time for the weekend. The
special continues until the keg is finished (or “kicked”). Be sure to ask
for the “Kill the Keg” special when you place your order.The doors open at 4 PM, so get there early because the special only lasts
until the keg is kicked. After that, there are other happy hour specials on
beer and wine. Bring your friends and coworkers if you want!
I’ve heard two people say that Tallula is a cool place to go. EatBar is attached to Tallula as it’s lounge/bar. As long as those kegs are not Miller Lite, I’d be interested in going.
