Was wondering when you'd suface LOL ... welcome back ... and who am I adopting?

**Gary-Alan** · 08-29-2004, 03:44 AM

Welcome back CBT!

We were elusive.. just ask Buck Angel how he and I kept missing each other by nano-seconds. And the one moment I did see him in one place I had ameeting I had to run to.

Vegas man Vegas! LOL You Buck and I can get chained in one place... Buck's great at that I hear LOL

Now get back to work dammit! LOL

Happy to hear all are home safe and sound.

My best,
Gary-Alan

Hey Gary-Alan!

You know, the fucking stupid thing is that I must have run past both you and Lee AND Bell at least twice while I was doing the rounds of the bar playing horsey with that damn stripper.

I am sure my left ear lost it's virginity halfway round the second time.

The best parties I went to were the Boardwalk and then this cliched (but way cool) little Gay bar that Matt, Steve et al dragged Tim and I to.

Strange enough, for a straight boy, I ALWAYS have MUCH more fun at gay bars with gay friends. SOOOO much more fun than the Discovery Channel bullshit I get in straight clubs looking the way I look.

A better class of people generally I expect. :wtf:

Anyways, from that night I have a vague recollection of giving Intensecash Mark a lap dance (either that or some other guy in a wheelchair thought it was Christmas) - sorry buddy :-)

I also, at some point, became Matt's bitch.

Does that now mean I work for BadPuppy Daddy?

Ha ha ha ha ha :baby:

But the whole Bell story cracks me up - we do a deal, make sure she gets there, and then don't even get to say hello...

Ha ha ha ha.

Will have to wait until Vegas babe.

And YES, you read the inference correctly my dear. Hit me up.

Let's see if we can go another 3 or 4 days running in the same circles and still managing NOT to meet.

I didn't say it was a bad thing, and yes, I missed you by 5 minutes several times, and yes, more my fault than any one elses....

When I said it cracks me up, I did mean the irony, nothing derogatory at all.

DO read carefully what I said at the bottom of the post :-)

I mean that.
