Yes, and I think lauren has been away too long -- it's a 5-10 min. walk from like every subway line ever aside from the F.

Mary if you're talking about the rockabilly guy with the horn-rimmed glasses, he got fired.

'Deadly Snakes'?

I nearly came to NYC this week, I would have flown out today in fact. But it was a work trip and sadly got cancelled. One day ... one day.

West Side Story? I was hoping for some hardboiled, Maltese Falcon, Humphrey Bogart on Elisha Cook Jr. action.

There could be Jerome Robbins-inspired balletic moves.

O'Connor's is ok except for the time when i popped in there with britishes gf before a bam movie back in september and got in an argument with some dude about hurricane katrina and whatnot. anyway, i don't think i can make it tomorrow pm, unless there's a last-minute change of venue to either sylvia's in harlem, or daddy's. : (

not that i really want to elaborate but i felt like the dude i was arguing with really needed to know that it wasn't just black people who were rescued from the 9th ward, et al.

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 04:50 (eighteen years ago) link

i thought they weren't rescuing pets.

rescued? from bushwick?

WHITE PEOPLE ARE NOT YOUR PETS.

there should be some sorta sign to this effect when folks enter greenpoint ...

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 06:23 (eighteen years ago) link

polish people aren't white?

― mies van der rohffle (Jody Beth Rosen), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 06:24 (eighteen years ago) link

no, they're "ethnic"

― hstencil (hstencil), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 06:27 (eighteen years ago) link

that's the point ... "exotic" white people (poles in greenpoint, hasidim in williamsburg, ukrainians in the east village) aren't there to please newcomers to the neighborhoods!

Americans are so obsessed with all this ethnicity stuff!

I wonder what a bam movie is.

I dare say the fap will be very good!

― the bellefox, Wednesday, 7 December 2005 14:21 (eighteen years ago) link

Stenc, you talk to strangers in bars? Ah youth.

Tom'w night's BAM movie is Richard Lester's How I Won the War featuring John Lennon.

Americans are so obsessed with all this ethnicity stuff!

Because we have actual black people. I'm friends with them, you know!

I'm not sure when I'm arriving. I need food first... anything good nearby?

― GET EQUIPPED WITH BUBBLE LEAD (ex machina), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 16:03 (eighteen years ago) link

Not sure I'm gonna make it, but will try.

― Ken-Tiki (Ken L), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 16:10 (eighteen years ago) link

― nervous (cochere), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 16:17 (eighteen years ago) link

have fun, everyone!

― Eisbär (llamasfur), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 16:18 (eighteen years ago) link

you should all come! what warms the blood on a cold night better than booze? my russian ancestors survived many a cold winter with nothing but wodka and the skin of newly killed beasts.

― thor heyerdahl (Jody Beth Rosen), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 16:20 (eighteen years ago) link

Somehow that's reminding me of the Star Trek episode where Mr. Spock shacks up in the prehistoric cave with Mariette Hartley.

In which departing from his usual diet and eating the flesh of the woolly mammoth causes early onset of the Vulcan seven-year itch.

Tracer, he seemed more standard-issue Vice-esque, though I haven't really committed his looks to memory, but rather his attitude.

I am, however, saddened by the downsizing of glasses-wearing rockabilly gentlemen whatever their field of endeavor.

i have last-minute conflict. one of my oldest nyc friends is having a bday party tonight, and since i'm going to the mercury lounge early on i'm not going to be able to make it to o'connors. will someone kiss the jukebox for me?

― lauren (laurenp), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 17:11 (eighteen years ago) link

Mary, horn-rim guy was a jerk. He really was. He was responsible for the re-cooling of O'Connor's -- he got the jukebox in, brought his friends, invited a few musical acts -- but he apparently felt that gave him license to yell at people for whatever reason he wanted. I don't know who else you could be talking about, Bart is really nice, although there have probably been others brought in who I don't know.

wow, lauren, that sucks!

― thor heyerdahl (Jody Beth Rosen), Wednesday, 7 December 2005 17:18 (eighteen years ago) link

i know, i know. i don't think there's any way around it, though. the friend i'm staying with got tickets for us to see deadly snakes, so that rules out stopping by early and i really have to go to my other friend's thing.
