Do we know who the nominees for the "Danny" are?
Posted by buzzorhowl on 2006-11-27 18:15:07 +0000
Nope.

Start preparing speeches, everyone!

The recipients of the MVP/Sixth Man/Danny were voted upon by a cadre of writers and retired contributors to all things Wadsworth.

Hey I changed my name!
Where's my Wadsie?
Posted by MF DU on 2006-11-27 19:45:41 +0000
Wadded up. lol
Posted by tgl on 2006-11-27 23:23:16 +0000
Is the voting completed? Who do I bribe?


..cause there is no way I'll top "Lord of the Dance".
Posted by Miriam on 2006-11-28 19:51:30 +0000
Wow. I am not only honored, but blown away that I could be considered as an individual, and a significant planner/participant in three of the Best Parties! Honestly, I don't remember the Garrison CD release...what I remember is their video shoot and getting knocked out by something, possibly falling ceiling or a crowd-surfing fist.
Posted by Miriam on 2006-11-28 19:52:34 +0000
Where do we vote? Is voting over?
Posted by Miriam on 2006-11-28 19:53:44 +0000
Can't believe Glib wasn't nominated for her Zakum Bridge costume. Or Yoav's vagina...even if it was at Love & Death.
Posted by bizquig3000 on 2006-11-28 20:46:52 +0000
Voting was not open to the public.
Posted by bizquig3000 on 2006-11-28 20:47:24 +0000
There were numerous candidates for all categories. It was tough to narrow them all down.
Posted by Miriam on 2006-11-28 20:56:15 +0000
So, if I won something, you'd let me know so I could write my speech or send in my, "I'm away shooting my next film..." tape, right?
Posted by buzzorhowl on 2006-11-29 02:46:05 +0000
Seriously. I mean, we <i> omitted </i> Stricken For Catherine!
Posted by tendiamonds on 2006-11-29 10:39:34 +0000
Natalie and I didn't make best wedding? If we'd invited any of you fuckers, you'd have seen that it was clearly the best.

Was it a small one? Nice pic by the way.

I don't think I knew you when the Jackster and I got married in 2000 (6+ years, wow), otherwise, Im sure you would've been skanking to the Specials along with tgl, the buzz and bizquig et. al...

Posted by tgl on 2006-11-29 11:48:50 +0000
Best Shotgun Wedding nominee.
Posted by ConorClockwise on 2006-11-29 15:02:41 +0000
It's not because we weren't invited. It's because it was Jewish.
Posted by G lib on 2006-11-29 16:01:42 +0000
It's not because we weren't invited, it was because you obviously had premarital sex.
Posted by ConorClockwise on 2006-11-29 16:50:39 +0000
Mmm, Natalie wore white...
Posted by Miriam on 2006-11-29 18:47:45 +0000
But they're not standing under the chupah! Does it count?
Posted by tendiamonds on 2006-11-29 22:56:43 +0000
Seriously, Miriam, you're an idiot.

We don't constantly live in a state of "under the chupah"... at some point, we need to go under the chupah, at which point we will be under the chupah, until that time, we will not be under the chupah.

Heh heh heh.

I might have garbanzo beans.
Posted by tgl on 2006-12-01 12:52:38 +0000
What am I wearing to this? Is a tuxedo to much?
Posted by ConorClockwise on 2006-12-01 13:32:39 +0000
You won't be the only penguin.

what time are the awards being given out?
I want to be there to interview people for the WB

Drink it!

Not that spiced shit.

...wait a minute. I think I like the spiced shit. This was my first year really enjoying a pumpkin ale. Maybe I've matured.
Posted by MF DU on 2006-12-01 18:40:26 +0000
this from the guy who admonished me for my guilty pleasure of southern pecan.

Posted by tgl on 2006-12-01 19:00:05 +0000
Wow. I don't remember admonishing you for Southern Pecan. If I did, well... I meant it.
Posted by MF DU on 2006-12-01 19:03:16 +0000
flavored coffee I meant - but if you're adding crap to yr beer - what's the difference?
Posted by tgl on 2006-12-01 19:03:15 +0000
Oh yeah, <a href="/2006/04/coffee_brewing#comment-19029">I meant it</a>. Southern Pecan <b><i>Coffee</i></b>.

Favorite interaction overheard at Dunkin' Donuts:
<i>Squat, burly, twenty-ish Dude with a well-trimmed chin strap, all black Red Sox cap askew</i>: Iced hazelnut, light, three sugars.
Posted by tgl on 2006-12-01 19:05:20 +0000
If it's a flavor that's produced in the mashing/brewing process and not an additive during bottling; I could be for it.

But generally, no.

I've never liked Harpoon's Winter Warmer. I was pleasantly surprised by Smuttynose's Pumpkin Ale which seemed spicey.
Posted by MF DU on 2006-12-01 19:07:17 +0000
The DD scenario you list is extreme and it is for the lesser hazelnut (WTF?)

Id say 9 our of 10 of my brew scenarios are eight O Clock regular bean or Green Mountain Breakfast blend. but the green mountain southern pecan is a treat every now and then.

I don't get it I'm not all up in people's grills about "pistachio ice cream"(an actual coffee flavor at work no shit), cinnamon, chocolate raspberry mochalattefrufu or anything...

BTW, SYSOP: will there ever be a return of the oft-missed "search" field?

Posted by tgl on 2006-12-01 19:11:00 +0000
Doesn't <a href="/search">this</a> link work?

Oh yeah. I guess I've kept it turned off. Everytime I turn it on. The machine crashes.

Try it now.
