Megan:
Ha ha, awesome.

*Fifteen people are trapped aboard a ship that's going to sink in exactly 20 minutes. Their only chance for survival is the five-person life raft stowed on their vessel. To make matters worse, the waters around the ship are teeming with man-eating sharks, so swiming to safety is out of the question.
A round-trip to the nearest island and back to the boat takes nine minutes on the raft. How many people will live to see dry land...
please answer that
Kit:
I wonder if Frank made it.
jm:
wow its amazing they should exicute order 66 with a lot of clones XD
Phil:
Awesome find. Its always interesting to find older pictures of the way something will work in the future, and then compare it to what actually ended up being the case.

Wow, that wasn't a question I ever expected my mom to ask. Must be a completely, totally different Katya.
Still a great interview. I usually don't give Beefeater much of a chance, but 24 actually sounds nonboring.
twitter.com/robmarais:
What a delightful read on what goes into my next favorite gin. Classic Beefeater has been my mixing gin for eons. I'm intrigued by 24, all the more so by learning of Payne's care and craft in creating it.
sushiesque:
Not that I noticed. But I was getting over a hideous cold and not particularly interested in the beverages.
quinciana:
Katya's Mom just wants to know whether this is the blogger who would know whether gin was served at Fuzzy's wedding in Maine.
Bryana Dunn:
Every doodad is a doohickey. Half of all thingamajigs are doohickeys. Half of all doohickeys are doodads. There are 30 thingamajigs and 20 doodads. No thingamajig is a doodad. How many doohickeys are neither doodads nor thingamajigs?
infinityisalie:
Even as an insufferable teetotaler, I found this a wonderful read.
alphonse:
whts the answer to i am glass i am superior i am china i am placid pleassseeeeee help
Beefeater:
Hanky Panky is an amazing cocktail. One of my personal favourites. My recipe of choice looks something like this.
2 PARTS Beefeater London Dry Gin
2 PARTS Italian vermouth
2 DASH Fernet Branca
SHAKE All ingredients over ice
STRAIN Into a chilled cocktail glass
SQUEEZE A freshly cut orange peel on top
Awesome Video Tutorial on the cocktail: www.beefeatergin.com/mixology/video.php?video =Hanky%20Panky

I'm sorry, but Zombies deserve the same rights that you and I have - they can't help that they are zombies!!! Freedom and Justice for ALL!!!!

Thanks for sharing. Great post

Jeez.
Sarah:
You should know that this blog is one of the first sites to come up in a search for the terms, "harvard square" and "crazy people" (I was seeking a couple specific crazies). While I may not have found what I was looking for, I am digging your blog.
sarah:
this is gay
1minutefilmreview:
Wow!
sushiesque:
Oh, you're quite right. I did not read the fine, italic print.
Icarus does not give me great confidence in their products.
rick:
i'm pretty sure that the propellant is icarus.
Pippa:
A couple are driving home in the dark when the car breaks down, the husband decided to walk to a petrol station for help that was a few miles back, so he locked all the doors,windows and boot. On his return there was a stranger in the car and his wife was dead,there was no damage to the car at all.what happened?????
James Price:
Yeah I found this out the hard way. The people who work at the Library of Congress were none too nice about setting me straight. Most of the people that work there do not want to be bothered, I think. The people that registered me and got me my car (of which there were three) were super nice. But everyone else is either mean or indifferent. I shouldn't have even gotten the reader ID (which you supposedly need to even read anything at the LOC) because I've yet to be stopped and asked for it, even at the "researcher only" entrance! Weak.
semele:
Dear sushiesque - is there any way I can contact you offsite to ask for permission to use one of your photographs?
You can reach me at mirlac@yahoo.com
Thanks so much, and it's a terrific blog.
Kathleen:
Still attracting the crazies, huh? It's nice to know some things never change.
sushiesque:
Erin: I just wish I knew what I was up to.
Obo: Why are they on my doorstep?
obo:
They're fantasy sports league prizes.
Erin:
Clearly you are living a double life.
Jamie:
A man and woman go before a preacher in Pennsylvania to be married, but the preacher says,"I can't marry you two." Why?
sushiesque:
perhaps we could meet up there for a (possibly very cold) picnic?
1. no; I was with my parents, and they had their own agenda.
2. I couldn't find it, but I didn't look too hard. I do hope it has not been felled.
bonus: there was an unusual quantity of big green snails clinging to little rocks in freakish clumps.
Gabriel Mckee:
Awww, jealous-- I love Harkness. I rather want to go back there sometime soon. Two questions:
1. Did you go to Sarge's? I rather want to go back there, too. (It's where I bought my first Ace Doubles!)
2. Did you see the tree with the boob?
Aw.
Also: HA HA FUCK YOURSELF ROMNEY

"But Ray McNulty, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Family Institute, one of the leading organizers of opposition to same-sex marriage, criticized some of the protesters, saying there was no need for hateful speech.
'What's going on down there is legal, and as far as I'm concerned, give those people their happiness for the day,' McNulty said." (AP)
And super congratulations on the master's degree, which will undoubtedly make a frame look marvelous. Or vice versa.

Also not pictured (I think), my favorite couple of the night: the two leather-clad biker guys.

Congratulations on your master's!
I've seen an article about the Seattle library. It looks freakin' awesome.

-If you were at the Awesome Gay Block Party and took photographs or wrote about it, feel free to post urls in the comments.-
I was there! I didn't get to stay as late as you, but I had a blast until I had to leave to catch the last train. Pictures(http://suspensionofdisbelief.org/photo/gaymarriage/) and accounts(http://suspensionofdisbelief.org/index.php?x=archive/gay.marriage.legalized.php) and, since it's the intarweb, links to more of the same.
Also, this is probably as good a time as any to say hi. I've been reading awhile since I found you via kottke, and have especially enjoyed the ongoing sagas of neckface and the crazy-people.

Whereas I can't get enough of zombies.
Congrats on the master's!

Thanks!
Mr Dunn: Splendid pictures. That Gamera sign is *beautiful*.
Mary: I don't know what it is about zombies. It's like they exist just to make us happy. Except they don't exist.
Posted by: sushiesque | 20 May 2004 at 08:22 AM
What do you mean they don't exist? Oh, they exist alright--in a stinky state between life and death, they roam the countryside looking like ground meat, their shredded flesh hanging ...
Must. Stop. Watching. 28. Days. Later.

Haha... that was me with the yay sign, for a couple of hours anyway. (I found this page while looking for pictures of it since I never took any.) From your picture (taken after 1:00 AM?) it looks like my coworker Dan holding it sometime after I got tired and went home. And I know he passed it to someone else after that.
Who cares, the yay was for everyone. :)
