Happy New Year

Is 29 too old to be bar-hopping downtown for New Year's Eve? Maybe it's because we only went to bars with no covers which is where the youngsters tend to swarm, but I felt kinda like a geezer. That feeling didn't last too long, though, as you'll be able to tell from the pictures. The object in my mouth in the second-to-last image is a blinky light thingee that I found on the ground in a puddle of beer around the same time that my good sense of hygiene had apparently vanished.

See the pics.

Anyway, my resolution is to curb my spending. After I buy a few things I really need first.

you look very cute when you smile with your teeth showing. also, being a fellow gilmore girls fan, i noticed that the girl in the black lace-y shirt resembles Lorelai.. have you ever thought that?

Hi Dan.
Happy new year. One thing about your recent movie review of "Kinsey" -- you need to see Chris O'Donnell in a little-seen Jessica Lange vehicle called "Men Don't Leave" before you pass final judgment on that expressionless prepster. That little potato had potential! Maybe he lost his chops when he married his horse-faced childhood sweetheart. Actually, they look like brother and sister. It's downright creepy.

29 is definitely not too old to bar hop! If I can be 27 and drunk enough to dance my ass off to Bel Biv Devoe's "poison" at a local watering hole on NYE (why, oh why, mr. DJ did you break out that 90's classic after midnight?) than you can be 29 and bar hop with your friends and stick blinking thingys in your mouth. I've done more unhygenic things including actually sitting on the toilet seat in the Acme Oyster House bathroom in New Orleans. I'm still afraid that there might be hidden consequences to that one.

Yikes! my New Year's resolution is to be more photogenic. Which is probably achieved by reducing that double chin by 100 pounds. :( But look how amazing my hair is in these pictures! Does it really look that fabulous?

PS Goody - It's the only reason we hang out with her. Other than her resemblance to Lauren Graham, "Cherry Nut" is really quite a bore.

That's weird. We heard Bell Biv Devoe's Poison as well and even remarked about it. Maybe that song is making a comeback. 2005: the year of Bell Biv Devloe. Better late than never. As long as they bring back Do Me too, it's fine with me.

Not many men can get away with wearing a scarf for an entire evening, that is what makes Dan, "Dan The Man." I'm telling everyone to visit Planetdan in 2005, my favorite website on the web.

Fun times. Fun, fun times. 29 too old? Ummm, no. I'll be out bar-hopping on 12/31/2024, I'm sure...if my liver is still functioning.

I don't see the resemblance to Lorelai, but it looks like you had fun. And Brent- you don't have 100 lbs to lose so stop exagerating. BTW- good hair.

Dan- I like the pic of you & KMack with your arms around each other. Oh & glad to hear you avoided Brothers, but sorry to hear you couldn't avoid Harvey's.

I didn't even realize that I never took off my scarf. Good thing it's a damn pretty scarf. I've remarked about Cherry Nut's resemblance to Lorelie before. That's probably the world's greatest compliment so I hope she appreciates it.

Brent, you look adorable. You sort of remind me of Nick Frost. And that's a good thing, 'cause Nick Frost is dreamy. Dan, you seem to have more teeth than most people. That's not necessarily a bad thing, just saying is all.
