Yesterday was my 24th birthday!!! My wife and I went out Saturday night to celebrate and had a grand 'ol time...if you want, you can read about it on my Blog, as the full details are a little lengthy. Suffice to say we got sushi and sake and danced the night into oblivion...

Ah 24 is a good age. First you look forward to 16 (Driver license), next is 18 (leagle adulthood), then 21 ( bars & clubs ). 24 though is great because now you reached the age where most car rental places require it as a minumum, you're only a year away from the insurance going down. It's all cool. Happy birthday Cinemo

::Thud::

Y'know, I see photos of the Cinewife and the Cinekidlet, not to mention the Cinehome, and I feel comforted knowing that there are folks my age (and possibly a little older, 30 something) on this forum and I read posts like this and realize that Cinemafia's several years younger.

I suddenly feel very old and grey. I mean, Space Boy's a wee babe in the woods and Cinemafia's younger than I and has a kidlet old enough to talk in complete sentences.

~sigh~

I'm glad you had a good party.

But in all Seriousness, sake, sushi and dancing ... I think we may all have to invite Cine to our Bday parties (or at least get invited to his) -- he knows how to have a great time!

Sake Bomb, ah, a wonderful thing
how quick is humanly possible for you?

I know someone who can drain a glass of draft beer in three seconds

did you do any depth charges*?
BTW, Japanese beers are fairly good, I personally like kirin

sorry for the fragmwntation of this message, I am not quite all here right now, I let my mind wander, and it did not come back.

*deph charge=shot of <insert favourite spirit here> dropped into a glass of draft beer, the liquor stays in the shot, but when you drink it, it goes down in a way you cannot taste it, it is a way of a) playing a prank on someone, or B) getting blasted really bloody fast.

YAY!!! 1 star!! I am no longer a junior member!

Yep, the sake bomb is identical, only with sake and Sapporo, of course!

Heh, it'd be better with japanese beer, methinks. I like kirin, I also like orential restaraunts where the people don't notice that when one person orders a large kirin with 3 glasses, and one of the three persons at the table is a minor
they just kept coming by and filling me up

Hey! I finally got one of the pics taken at my alleged "birthday party" back from the guy who brought a disposable cam. I scanned it and placed it on my server, here.

P.S. - I'm the guy with the crazy look on his face way over at the left. My wife's coworkers got a real kick of that... The chick next to me is Tiffany (the one who ended up drunk as a skunk by the end of the night), to the right of her is Vanessa, next to her is Johnathan, and finally there's Steve, of whom you can only see his hands in mid-clap.

You ordered the meat for the party from the QuandraJets's deli, didn't you? You shouldn't have forgotten that it's only 97% fart free. There's still that other3% left for your body to work out.

Ok, yeah, I'll be 22 in DisMember, so in some eyes I'm a young one...

Not that *I* care how old anyone is, honestly, especially around here.

I just applied for a job in Boston (please, everyone, make contact with what ever powers or deities you hold dear in my behalf) with my churches offices to take care of the email servers, web servers, help keep the website working, etc...

The job requirements included "At least one year of experiance with web creation by hand with HTML, and FTP"

I thought "Umm... it takes me longer to upkeep my site with Fetch than it does via a command line... I remember the Internet when I'd get kicked off at 6:47am everymorning when the tech power cycled all the modems at Merit Networks... when Gopher, Telnet and FTP were the only tools you had... scrounging for information with Archie, Veronica and Jughead... Did you say ONE years experiance?"

Then I thought "Thaat really makes me feel old..."

In some people's eyes i'm considered to be a young one. I remember reading about the new Quadras (AVs and 605s), Power Macs and Performas in the many AppleNews (any other aussies remember AppleNews? ) newsletters that graced the coffee table when i was a kid.

Well Kady Mae... you're still a 68kMLA Booth Babe!

Actually, what really made me feel old (and weird, cuz I still live with the 'rents) was realizeing that come my Birthday this DisMember, I'll be as old as my dad was when I was born, and I'm already as old as he was when I was conceived...


Not to get this Board into touchy terror-tory... What do you do when your 42 and 64 year old female, single bosses admit that they have and have had a crush on you?

Make sure that YOUR comfort level is understood by both. If it's upsetting to you in any way, be honest with yourself. The easiest way to put things back to the way they should be is to take up the position that you don't want anything to come between your happiness with the work you do and the people you work with. This method normally gets the point across without trampling on feelings and pride. Keep in mind, they could ( I stress could) just be being playful and goofing around. Without actually being there personally, I really don't have any reference to use. So I'm stuck with postulating the possiblities. Only you can really decide how troublesome this is for you and how serious to take it. I can only recomend two things. Don't jump the gun with a rash conclusion, but don't overlook the obvious.

Oh, if I misunderstood and you're looking at if we think you should go for it.......I'd have to say, "Not a good idea."
I generally believe that to avoid the above problems. Nobody should see that much of each other anyway. Time apart always makes the time together much better.

Well, Ben Franklin advised men to have mistresses older than them because they were wiser and grateful. ;)

A crush can be many things. I kind of have a little crush on a handsome guy in the IT deapartment even though I'm happily married. I love to tease him and even flirt a little, or try make him laugh (because the poor guy is under so much stress) ... but I know it's never going to be a serious thing. (He's gay.) It's an affection thing.

Perhaps its because you remind them of the parts of their lives when they were young, and handsome, talented men treated them with respect and paid attention. I mean, there's probably a part of them that looks at you and says, "If I were his age, I'd be on him like white on rice", but it's probably mostly an affection thing.

Either way, if it starts becoming something you're uncomfortable with and not professional. Politely and clearly tell them to step it down a notch.
