Five Years Ago Tomorrow Night, I threw one hell of a party...

Recommended Posts

Aah, memories...

I don't ever need to do it again, but convincing 50 or so companies to pony up over $100,000 in product and cash to pay for MY 30th birthday party was truly one of my top coup d'état's.

Five years. Jesus. Where does the time go?

Who cares about the party 5 years ago. We want invites to this year's party! ;)



Or at least the phone numbers of those two babes he's squeezing in that one photo.:ph34r:

Happy Birthday Peter... I liked your 7 ways to throw a party for free...

the problem is that I run into a snag when I read your second point...

"Explain how connected your friends are - how they all turn to you to find out what's cool, and then they take that and let their friends turn to them."

cause frankly I don't have any "cool" friends... by your definition... :P

other then you perhaps... ;)

He's running the NYC Half marathon and having a bagel... at least that's what he said in his blog...



I had to skim, lightning took out my internet access at work, so I'm trying to catch-up. :P

Happy day, Peter! :)

Um...

1. Peter knows I'm kidding and would never say anything to purposely hurt his feelings for real, I care too much about him as a friend.
2. I wasn't invited to the first one anyways.
3. You never know cause Peter's just nice like that.
and...
4. I am a year older than Peter and he knows it.


So there! Ha! :P

Thanks, guys. :)
The news media there was funny - VH-1 wound up using my footage in some show they did on celebs - (Not me, some of my guests were celebs) - so for like, a year, people were like, "Um, I think I saw your party on TV."

The fun part was the penthouse pets escorting my Grandma to the party. And explaining to her what Astroglide was, and why it was in the gift bag. B|

I had often wondered if I could get corporate sponsorship for my cases.

Ah, one of the many ideas that I want to steal from your book....if my marketing manager ever lets me have my copy back. Me thinks I'll just have to buy another one....do you know anyone with enough stroke to get the author to autograph it?;)

I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried

Where does the time go?



Desert Storm seems like yesterday; not 17 years ago. It's reached the point where I'm afraid to go take a dump and lose another 5 years. :S:D
Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
