Promises, Promises
Ahh, Christmas break. What better way to ring in my lenthy(omg 5 days off) vacation than with some good friends at a Kareokee(sp?) bar.
Needless to say it was quite a scene.
While I have to say that I am neither a fan of singing in front of strangers nor that awful strip they call Adams Morgan, but I was feeling the Miller Lites holiday cheer and can never pass up the opportunity to be a token gentile. I must say though the real selling point was my friend Jacob Greenbaum, or JGB. If you know him, than you understand nothing short of a terrorist attack or a natural disaster would keep you from seeing JGB when he graces the district with his precense; if you don't know him, I would recommend putting your name on the waiting list.
The bar was superfratty, but the company was good, and the entertainment was memorable to be sure. JGB's killer rendition of everyone's favorite pedaphile's (or is that Mark Foley now?) bill board topper, "Man in the Mirror" brought the house down. I mean the kid coaches, motivates and educates young children, so duh, he IS inspiring.
The evening was filled with some good old fashioned fun, and on-going discussion about if it is okay to be a Nuggets fan now in stead of a sixers fan(yeah I obliviously have a strong opinion on this), DC's soon-to-be Brewmaster of 2007, virtual buck hunting, and to top it all off some predictable, but funny standard Adams Morganess. What you ask is Adams Morganess, well I'll tell you:
Some dude in a diagonal striped button down shirt(two sizes two large) facing the tough to pull of challenge of the puke walk-(puking while walking). Yeah, but the best part was when the next frat boy went puddle jumping the stream of big slice up-chuck. Yeah.
