I'm Gonna Crawl
This was supposed to come yesterday, after the pub crawl, but it was difficult to do much yesterday. But here's a breakdown of events...- The crawl was a well-oiled machine. Something like the Red Holden Ute (car-truck) my neighbour has. And like that same Ute, the pub crawl engine was just getting revved up by mid-afternoon.
- Congregated at Dons. Some of us had a few drinks (2 beers, 1 shot Jagarmeister)
- Mermaid Tavern was the first stop after Dons. Great place to be. Getting to know the people before their heads were in toilets was nice (2 1/2 beers, one shot Jagarmeister).
- Off to the Platinum dance bar in broadbeach. Think of this. Do you ever think to yourself at 5pm, "man, I'd really like to go to a dark basement, listen to house music and pay 10 dollars per drink right now." That sums up Platinum. Easily the worst stop on every crawl. But without the bad, how can you know the good... (one Jager-bomb shot, one Quarter Pounder at McDonalds)
- As an aside, this was also where the Skuller agreed to let someone paint a unibrow on him as well as a colonel sanders type facial hair. It was an odd move from the Skuller, but interesting.
- Next came the Bedroom. Nothing that interesting to say from this one. But more people were getting smashed by now. DJ (bartender at the bedroom) gave me and Marc a shot of something green. It tasted like poison - it may have been (two cranberry vodka, one poison shot, one Jager Bomb).
- Strike Bowling alley next. Beforehand, I had suggested quietly to people that this would be a nightmare. I figured 20 pairs of bowling shoes would be stolen and three bowling balls would turn up at the next bar rolling on the dance floor. Not so. Bondies behaved apparently (one beer, one vodka cranberry).
- Melbas. Great conversation...who am I kidding. There was no talking, just more drinking (two vodka cranberry)
- The Shack next (one cowboy shot, one vodka cranberry).
- Lastly the Drink Nightclub. Had to go home early after this bar (Jager-bomb, beer....I think?).
- There was no question that the best bus on the crawl was Angels #4 captained by Matt Cantatore and co-captained by yours truly.
- Kudos to Jess "the alcohol vacuum" Leach and John Curtin for putting on a great event. Who the hell would want to be in charge of getting 800 drunk students around? But they pulled it off without serious incident. A few hundred hangovers...that's about all.
"tough one, I woke up in the shower again. This time I remember going there. As I entered my room at about 3 am last night, the voice inside my head said Skuller, go to the shower or you're a dead man. I still had a brain cell or two working so I got my mobile out of my pants. Somehow I found it later saturated. I drank a bucket of water when I awoke. I will be good."
No word yet if the Skuller is alive now.

The Skuller is invincable
maybe DJ gave u an absinthe shot? what a champ! too bad i couldn't come to pub crawl and see u lead people!
Incident! No incident! Look gord, there was a massive fight in surfers! it was huge. No joke. It was between some guy from Bond called James T. Kirk and some muppet from griffith called Gorn. I pulled the police tapes from a hidden camera, Gord look, they're here. I suggest you publish them;

I miss Sally. When is Sally coming back?
sally isn't coming back. she saw the light
I want to know why I have to fly back to Sydney to clean the dunnies and park on Bondi Beach when the LSA President can get a job in an air conditioned office. He should give me his job. I still have not heard back about my dishwashing job at the brasserie. Gordon I have school fees to pay and kids to feed. Can you get the LSA President to give us his job?
I wonder what would happen if a Glass Smasher on a pub crawl made it to the Bowling Alley???
I challenge in the coming semester that each bus should have there own them and be captained by various groups of ppl. For example Team Innapropriate could have bus and would probably crash it into a bridge.
As well the T3 could have a bus and break glass, splash pools, and laugh like Hyenas.
Stipes and Dots could do the elephant walk.
Finally there could be some other leaders that are actually from Australia to lead the way.
Just a thought
Get back to work Gordo.
Even Skuller is doing a better job than you!

Matt
I spoke to you yesterday. I have a job for you and gord.
You can be my bitch. The conditions are bad, and the pay is no good, but you will have the enjoyment of getting to hang out with me all day and bask in my radiance.
Seriously though, I found you a job check your email... And Matt for the record again, if you want something from me ASK ME don't post it on a blog and wait to see if I can find it or not.
