terrya and whoisalhedges cruise the Chicago gay bar scene:

[Magrittes Pipe]

[Padraig18]

1. Did you guys hit Roscoe's?

:)

[Magrittes Pipe]

4. Nah, we pretty much just stayed at Big Chick's.

Before going on to Celtic Crossings with the rest of the Chi crowd.

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

46. I knew that was Chick's, their paintings are unmistakable

But I have never been there that there was enough room to take a picture of anything but the back of the person in front of me.

[WindRavenX]

2. awww

Whatcha drinking? Guiness?
Looks like fun! :hi:

[Magrittes Pipe]

8. Leinenkugel's Red.

You can take the boy out of Wisconsin....

[Placebo]

3. wow, i really wasn't missing anything @ the chicago meet up then!

juuuuust kidding :P

[Magrittes Pipe]

10. Nope. Just a bunch of drunken old people.

And a drunken 15-year-old, who claimed to be 21.

[Placebo]

13. whaaaaaaat...

i want a beer too! x(

[Magrittes Pipe]

19. I don't.

Tonight is sober night. Tonight I have control over my drinking. Tonight I am being responsible.


Tomorrow night, I'm getting wrecked.

[nickgutierrez]

47. Bastard.

I wasn't drunk. :mad:

[Magrittes Pipe]

52. Well, we sure were TRYING to get you drunk!

:D

[KitchenWitch]

5. the guy on the right

I am assuming it's whoisalhedges looks a lot like an older version of the character Cameron from "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". That is not a bad thing BTW!

:D

[Magrittes Pipe]

12. That's disturbing.

I really don't. And nobody's ever said that to me before.

But, looking at that particular picture, I'll be damned if you're not right.

[KitchenWitch]

16. I always thought "Cameron" was kind of cute

what can I say...I am a geekazoid.

[Magrittes Pipe]

23. Well, then, thank you.

;)

[KitchenWitch]

27. You are most welcome

:bounce:

[KitchenWitch]

118. I am so sorry

I really started something here. :shrug:

[Shananigans]

45. I'll be damned... it *IS* Ferris Bueller's sidekick...

You've been hiding this from us all along, Hedges? Seriously!

[hollywood926]

6. MMM, those beers look yummy.

Any luck?

[Magrittes Pipe]

14. No luck.

My damn girlfriend was there holding me back. x(

[Misunderestimator]

7. Too funny... why did I think you were a teenager?

:D

[Magrittes Pipe]

9. Probably my astonishing immaturity.

[Misunderestimator]

22. I swear I thought I remember seeing a picture of you before...

and it was a picture of some young little thing... Ah... the internet... the pictures we make in our heads.... pretty funny. (The immaturity helps too :))

[Magrittes Pipe]

25. Oh dear.

Well, I'm still 2 1/2 weeks shy of thirty. That's kind of young. :shrug:

[Misunderestimator]

28. Relative to me... yes... that's kind of young.

:)

[Magrittes Pipe]

29. Yeah, but you and I each look better than most people half our ages.

;)

[Misunderestimator]

31. LOL

:D

[JimmyJazz]

11. It's my turn: Gimme A FUCKIN' BEER!

:P

[Magrittes Pipe]

15. I'll send it aeropostale.

It might be a little foamy.

[Fridays Child]

17. Who filled up that ashtray? Hmm?

:spank:

[Magrittes Pipe]

21. Terry smokes like a chimney.

[blue neen]

18. Is that a purple shirt on the table?

What IS that? LOL!

[Magrittes Pipe]

20. That's the 14-year old's scarf that my mom gave her for Christmas...

...and her mother promptly appropriated.

[greatauntoftriplets]

24. Well.....I take it you were avoiding arriving at Celtic Crossings .....

...when I was there. Harumph.

"The rest of the Chicago crowd" my ass......

[Magrittes Pipe]

26. You're really lovely, and I couldn't possibly hold you in higher esteem...

...but after last time? Honey, you really weirded me out. You know how awkward it would be.

[greatauntoftriplets]

30. Men......

And here I was perfectly fine with it....

;)

[Magrittes Pipe]

32. Just because the cops were all men...

...doesn't make it any less abuse of a corpse.

[greatauntoftriplets]

35. Seems like you are one lively corpse....

despite protests to the contrary....

[Magrittes Pipe]

36. I'm not talking about me.

I'm talking about John Candy.

True, it was me who had his bones in my trunk, I admit that. But what you did with them was just wrong.

[greatauntoftriplets]

37. It was Valentine's Day...You told me there was candy in your trunk....

How ta hell was I supposed to know? Told you that I preferred roses....

[Magrittes Pipe]

38. I was just being honest. You said honesty was what was most important.

Maybe I should have put some roses in his eye sockets.

[greatauntoftriplets]

39. Well....roses.....

certainly would have made up a small amount for the way he reeked. How many years had you had him in your trunk?

[Magrittes Pipe]

40. Well, he died in... '94?

Yeah. About a decade.

[greatauntoftriplets]

41. 11 years....

I always said you couldn't count....

[Magrittes Pipe]

42. No. You always said I DIDN'T count.

:cry:

[greatauntoftriplets]

43. Not exactly....

What I said is that you were a no account....

Please don't :cry:

[Magrittes Pipe]

53. That's why it never would have worked between us.

:(

[Skittles]

33. you guys are very cute

:thumbsup:

[Magrittes Pipe]

34. Thanks, but Terry's really the cute one.

Look at that smug look on my face. I really need to get my ass kicked.

[Skittles]

44. I'll put you down for a double-ass-kicking

:D

[tigereye]

48. terry is very cute

he has such a nice smile. You look more mature than usual, Al. ;)

boy I want some of what you guys were drinking, though.

[terrya]

51. Awww....thanks, sweetie!

But I must say that Al is quite good looking. :-)

T

[tigereye]

107. don't keep telling him that, he'll get a swelled head

;)

[Magrittes Pipe]

108. Just what do you mean by that?

:o

[JimmyJazz]

49. DaYum!

That's it....just DaYum. But, don't tell anybody I said that...I'll deny it if you do!

[Magrittes Pipe]

56. Is that Cantonese?

I do not read pinyin. :shrug:

[terrya]

50. What a nice picture!! And there was someone else there, as well.:-)

I had such a great time with you guys. It was my very great pleasure to hang out with you at one of my favorite places. Great company, fine conversation, good drinks...I couldn't hope for more (that is, until we got to Celtic Crossing. :-)

Thanks for a lovely time,
T

[Magrittes Pipe]

54. I'm still trying to convince her to post the pic of the two of you.

It's really a lovely snapshot.

We had a great time too, Terry. :)

[terrya]

57. Well, I hope so too!!

The three of us are quite photogenic....I'd like to see that picture, also. :-)

And thanks for this thread :-)

T

[matcom]

55. i swiped your wallet off the table when you and Terrya were kissing

you know. the pic you DIDN'T post?

[Magrittes Pipe]

63. I'm holding on to that pic for now.

[ScreamingMeemie]

58. Awwwwwww...You guys are adorable!

I am jealous of DUers getting to meet each other. sniffle.

[Magrittes Pipe]

64. DU party in Michigan!

:bounce:

[progmom]

98. I'm game!

Let's do it!

[Magrittes Pipe]

122. Oooh! Hammy Sammy!

[ScreamingMeemie]

123. Come to FUNDAY!!! I'm going...even if I'm on a gurney this year!!!

:bounce:

[BlondieK143]

59. So cute!

And where was MY invite?? Sheesh!

[Magrittes Pipe]

65. Musta got lost in the mail.

Damn Postal Service. :grr:

[JanMichael]

60. Did you all meet on DU?

What a cute couple you are!

Congratulations on finding each other!

[terrya]

61. whoisalhedges is hetero. :-)

He and dolo amber were there. dolo amber...his girlfriend...took the picture. We're trying to convince dolo to post the picture of her and I. :-)

T

[Magrittes Pipe]

62. Well, that, and Doug would kick my ass...

...if he thought I was trying to steal his man. ;)

[terrya]

66. Doug wouldn't be happy, no....

And dolo amber would be mighty pissed if I tried to steal HER man...

So, I think good friends is what we should be. A lot less complicated that way. :-)

T

[Magrittes Pipe]

67. Nah, she's trying to get rid of me any way she can.

But yeah, no need to complicate matters. It was great to see you again, Terry. :)

[IntravenousDemilo]

117. And you haven't even seen...

...my size 12 steel-toed boots yet. Wow, my reputation must really have preceded me. Anyhow, I'd never kick your ass, because Terry says you like Sondheim.

[Magrittes Pipe]

119. Doug!

It is a most exquisite honor to meet you, sir. :hi:

[IntravenousDemilo]

120. Well, now that I've outed myself...

Hi! I'm pretty damn pleased myself to meet you. :toast:

[Magrittes Pipe]

121. Next time you visit, drinks are on me.

I mean I'll buy a round. I'm not talking body shots here.

Okay, but only after I'm good and drunk.

[JanMichael]

74. ummmm sure he is....

get real; he's way too cute to be hetero....

;)

Steph

[Magrittes Pipe]

78. No, that's Terry.

I'm the fugly one in the red shirt.

[JanMichael]

80. Who knew whichonewasalhedges???

But, fugly you aren't.

I don't think DoloA does "fugly."

Tell her "hi!" from some of the North Carolinians!

Stephanie

[terrya]

82. Nope. whoisalhedges is relentlessly hetero.

Determinedly so. :-)

T

[Magrittes Pipe]

83. You make it sound like I've joined some weird breeder cult.

I'm just the way I am! :cry:

[terrya]

87. It's just the roll of the genetic dice there, my friend.

As I am relentlessly queer. :-)

T

[Magrittes Pipe]

88. No shit.

I'll never lay out $300 for a female hooker for you again. What a waste of money. :P

[terrya]

90. Well, we had a nice chat.

Although $300 just for conversation IS a bit much. :-)

[Magrittes Pipe]

93. I'm glad I didn't pony up the extra $100 for her to bring a "friend."

[terrya]

96. Yeah....

That would have REALLY been unnecessary. :-)

[Magrittes Pipe]

97. Oh well, at least she was a good sport about it.

[Beware the Beast Man]

68. Aww, what a cute couple!

:evilgrin:

[Magrittes Pipe]

69. Jealous?

:evilgrin:

[Beware the Beast Man]

70. Damn straight.

I had a dream about Terry, incidentally. Mrs. Beast Man and I were hanging out with him. Then all my teeth fell out.

[Magrittes Pipe]

71. You know what it means when you dream about losing teeth, right?

I don't. :evilfrown:

[terrya]

77. Well, that's a nice dream.

Until the teeth falling out thing....

:-)

[kick-ass-bob]

72. Terry - I have that shirt!

It's a little older and more worn looking, but that's it!

PS I didn't know you knew Alan Ruck!



Is he wearing the same shirt as in the movie?

:7

[Magrittes Pipe]

73. I hate you, Bob.

:nuke:

[kick-ass-bob]

76. were you taking the picture? did you get his autograph?

[JimmyJazz]

85. oh great!

now everyone in the room is wondering why I'm laughing! nice smilie btw ;)

[progmom]

100. bwaa haaaa haaaaa!

[LynneSin]

75. What the hell is that purple fuzzy thing on the table

Is it Oscar? Did you capture him and take him drinking too. (which isn't a good thing since it was recently discovered that Oscar is preggers)

[Magrittes Pipe]

79. See this one:

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=105&topic_id=2677538&mesg_id=2677616&page=

[JimmyJazz]

81. How much more mileage are you going to get

from this pic???? :P Oh - and those beers are looking pretty tasty as well!

[Magrittes Pipe]

84. Well, when the pic is of two gentlemen as hadsome as Terry and I....

I mean, I can't blame people for hopping on this train.

[JimmyJazz]

92. you won't get any argument from me!

:)

[Magrittes Pipe]

95. Dammit!

I wanted to get argumentative. x(

[ChavezSpeakstheTruth]

86. That's so different from the last pic I saw of you Hedges!

:scared:

[Magrittes Pipe]

89. The secret ingredient is pants.

[terrya]

91. Michelle, the owner of Big Chicks, is a very cool, nice lady. BUT...

she does insist on the wearing of pants in the bar. :-)

[Magrittes Pipe]

94. It's for the best, really.

My butt sweat probably would have stuck to the leather stool.

[redqueen]

99. Awww... what a couplea cuties!

Is that a Shakes the Clown shirt? It looks so familiar...

[Magrittes Pipe]

101. No, but I'll give you a hint:

"You tell 'em, Steve-Dave!"

[redqueen]

103. D'oh... not shakes... Vulgar

Nice!

:thumbsup:

[kick-ass-bob]

102. No its the one he wore in the movie:

[arwalden]

104. Note that the pitcher and TWO glasses are on Terry's side of the table!

Coincidence? I think not!

-- Allen

PS: Terry... why are you holding your crotch?

[Magrittes Pipe]

105. That's not Terry's hand.

:evilgrin:

[terrya]

106. Hmmmmm...

Well...I don't rightly know, actually. :-)

[XNASA]

109. Sigh. Reminds me of when I was in the Navy.

:cry:

Good times.

[Magrittes Pipe]

110. "In the Navy," eh?

So that's what you called it.

[XNASA]

111. Aye, aye, Captain.

Permission to come aboard?

(Salutes the fantail.)

[terrya]

112. Ah, the Navy. Men in uniform...on a ship...at sea...

Gosh, those must have been special times indeed. :-)

[Magrittes Pipe]

113. I giggle every time I hear the word "seamen."

:D

[terrya]

114. Tee, hee!!

Oh, I like that word, also. Quite a bit, actually. :-)

T

[XNASA]

115. For the record, I was an Airman......

But there was plenty of Seamen around, let me tell you.

[Magrittes Pipe]

116. The fly boys get all the action.
