That's pretty neat that you chose to spell "dang" backwards for your screen name.........

I think the difference was in the amount consumed (a lot), and the ultimate goal (passing out). This wasn't drinking at parties and such... this was just drinking, alone in a dorm room, or with your roommate, or a few friends. There were parties too, of course, but even then the goal wasn't to have fun, or meet the opposite sex... they all just wanted to get blitzed. It was the only way they had to release the tension of the week. It was a very demanding engineering school.

Well my family should be about 45 minutes into their last theatre viewing of FoTRAhh well, if they started on time, at 45 minutes into the story, The hobbits just tumbled down the hill in the Shire... and Frodo just saw the Screamin' Eebie Jeebies come blowing up the road.

So today in the Hobbit Hole we have g'nad and ksen talking about Animal House, Corin talking about himself in the third person the way Jen does when she is on the edge, and Alkhin posting messages to herself about the life of the wife of the dark lord himself. ROFLMAO!! I like the way you put that...am glad you liked the teeny bit you saw...aside from not having an artist to help us out, our scanner program is constantly acting like the Ring itself, either causing the computer to wilt in dread or just disappearing into silicon nothingness for no reason at all...
I need a wizard...or a hobbit with a delightful Scottish accent...SOMETHING...to help me...hehehehehe
To: Bear_in_RoseBear
Yeah - but that is what we did too... our little gang in a dorm room... playin' quarters for shots of tequila till somebody went down. hehehehe. ugh! Hurts to think of it.
To: HairOfTheDog
oh fergot...I havent seen that comic you mentioned, but the visual in my mind was enough to make me chuckle!
I plan to add more about what started the whole thing...its definitely going to be warped....I dont know how FUNNY it will be, but it will definitely be warped...bordering on irreverent...however, we will probably be more slanderous of OTHER sci-fi/fantasy films (say no more! say no more!) than we will be of LOTR itself.

Screamin' Eebie Jeebies That would be a great name for a band...

playin' quarters for shots of tequila till somebody went down... I didn't drink in college (honest, it was forbidden and I didn't anyway). So my experiences were sort of delayed until my 20s.
When I was working in DC we'd go out for birthdays, etc. Once we went to a TexMex place and started at 3:00 in the afternoon with margaritas and shots...At one point in the evening, I actually thought it made sense to have a female co-worker call my house and tell my wife I'd be late...
That may have been the start of the whole "who wears the snowpants in the Stormhands household" thing...
Corin doesn't do that anymore...(not even on the edge)

I found out the hard way that Mrs. g'nad (prior to marriage)was a quarters shark...me and a friend played her when she came for a visit...rules were shoot till you miss, plus, for every five she made in a row, we would do a shot of Everclear...her first round she hit 32 in a row...it was a loooooong nite...
Once in the Corps, we routinely dumped an incapacitated buddy on his doorstep, rang the bell, and ran away before his wife could make it to the door...it made our lives easier...

I'm back! Besides having my driving critiqued in fine detail every inch of the way, it went ok! We even went by Krispy Kreme and I convinced my mom that the coffee was very good and astounded her by being correct.
Matthew is taking a major math test behind me. Lift him up in prayer! ;-)

Guess I'm a teetotaller then. The worse I ever did at college was drink a half bottle of champagne on the last day of classes. :)
To: Overtaxed
I drank 10oz of tequila once, in about 15 minutes. I was in college.
I was very ill afterward.
To: Alkhin
What's her name,, SHowron?

Matthew is taking a major math test behind me. eeuugh....math....prayers going out now...

We even went by Krispy Kreme and I convinced my mom that the coffee was very good and astounded her by being correct. Well try not to make a habit out of being right...
To: 2Jedismom
I was very ill afterward. Hehehe....who'd a thunk you'd be a worse drunk than I!

Not to get hasty or anything, but I'm beginning to think that shots need to be a part of
Entmoot 2003.
Here's what we'll do: Everybody picks a "word" (Shire, Mordor, Frodo, Gandalf, etc.) out of a hat. Then when your word is said in the movie, you do a shot...
Somehow, I don't think the "Promise Keepers" defense will work...
To: Corin Stormhands
. Then when your word is said in the movie, you do a shot... I'll take "the"!!! I'll take "the"!!!
