Start Time: 11:08:02 AM; End Time: 1:02:15 PM

Jeff says: (11:08:09 AM)

   Happy New Year. (are you drunk yet?)

Josh says: (11:08:22 AM)

   I'm at work

Josh says: (11:08:25 AM)

   So, no

Jeff says: (11:08:35 AM)

   it's new years somewhere ... like australia

Josh says: (11:09:17 AM)

   Right, somehow I don't think my boss is going to care. If I'm slurring my words in the faculty meeting, I think she'll notice.

Jeff says: (11:09:31 AM)

   *cackles* so are you heading to IC after work?

Josh says: (11:09:38 AM)

   I guess.

Josh says: (11:10:07 AM)

   I have a meeting until 5:00, and I still have to go home and take care of some shit. I probably won't get there until 7:00 or so.

Josh says: (11:10:19 AM)

   BC will be there, but I'm not sure who else.

Jeff says: (11:10:25 AM)

   where are you going?

Josh says: (11:10:38 AM)

   ???

Josh says: (11:10:43 AM)

   I'll figure it out after work

Josh says: (11:10:59 AM)

   I'm not too worried - it's Iowa City. THere's always a party somewhere.

Jeff says: (11:11:07 AM)

   did assmunch's house get sold?

Josh says: (11:11:22 AM)

   Not yet.

Josh says: (11:11:59 AM)

   Last night he called me from a bar in Tampa. He just wanted to let me know that he was surrounded by beautiful women, drinking beer, enjoying the weather, etc. Bastard

Jeff says: (11:12:31 AM)

   jerk. don't you hate when people call you to tell you how much fun they are having?

Josh says: (11:12:59 AM)

   I can't really complain. we all do it...

Jeff says: (11:13:09 AM)

   damn right we do

Josh says: (11:13:15 AM)

   lol

Josh says: (11:13:54 AM)

   I think we need to start planning the next time we can get together and call all our other friends to tell them what a great time we're having. How about next month in Wyoming.

Jeff says: (11:14:06 AM)

   absofuckinglutely

Josh says: (11:14:43 AM)

   I don't think I've ever seen that word typed out... It looks like it should be in a Mary Poppins movie

Jeff says: (11:15:01 AM)

   maybe a different kind of mary poppins movie

Josh says: (11:15:19 AM)

   Mary Poppins visits brooklyn

Jeff says: (11:15:32 AM)

   Chim-chimeny chim-chimeny heyyoukidsgetoffmyfuckinglawn

Josh says: (11:15:42 AM)

   LOL!!!

Josh says: (11:15:59 AM)

   We should write kids books someday.

Jeff says: (11:16:37 AM)

   it can be a side project after our real estate business and our brew pub/restaurant

Josh says: (11:17:48 AM)

   Hey, I've got another idea... I just don't think we're going to become bazillionaires just by owning a brewpub or apartment buildings. I've devised another plan...

Josh says: (11:18:45 AM)

   I think we should invent a small, cold fusion devise that is easily transportable and will solve the world's energy problems. That's got to be worth a couple billion dollars, right? You start working on that.

Jeff says: (11:20:02 AM)

   um, yeah, I can probably bang that out by next friday, so what should we do with the rest of our lives then?

Josh says: (11:20:43 AM)

   Oh my god. I've got some kick ass philanthropic ideas. If I had 30-40 billion dollars... We'd do some serious good.

Josh says: (11:21:49 AM)

   We could make a little traveling trophy (like the little brown jug or someting) and pass it around as an annual award to the billionaire who donated the most money each year.

Jeff says: (11:22:25 AM)

   no one would like that. billionaires can give themselves awards. lets set up an organization that competes with the Nobel Prize people

Josh says: (11:22:34 AM)

   "Look, I just got the little jug. And all I had to do was donate 8.3 billion dollars in philanthropic support"

Josh says: (11:22:45 AM)

   No, the jug works.

Josh says: (11:22:59 AM)

   But I like competing with the Nobel prize.

Jeff says: (11:23:16 AM)

   alrighty, but does it have to be a jug? that minnesota little brown jug in a box is fucking stupid

Josh says: (11:23:25 AM)

   Fine.

Josh says: (11:23:32 AM)

   Do you have a better idea?

Josh says: (11:24:09 AM)

   It has to be something completely useless and relatively worthless. Like a bag of frozen peas... only non-perishable.

Jeff says: (11:25:03 AM)

   how about something pointy?

Josh says: (11:25:13 AM)

   I like pointy.

Jeff says: (11:25:40 AM)

   Like a big giant medevil mace, but made out of styrofoam

Josh says: (11:26:31 AM)

   Ooooo, I like it. I'd spend 3.4 billion dollars a year to get something cool like that.

Josh says: (11:27:42 AM)

   Plus, we'll need a big ceremony with lights, cameras, armadillos, etc. We'll invite lots of politicians and holywood types, but we'll also invite homless people, and rednecks from Tennessee. Then we open up the bar and see what happens!

Jeff says: (11:28:07 AM)

   ooh, and my sister. we'd have to invite her

Josh says: (11:28:21 AM)

   This is perfect. Now all you have to do is go build a small cold fusion device. Get crackin!

Josh says: (11:28:31 AM)

   Definitely invite your sister.

Josh says: (11:28:45 AM)

   And Key.

Jeff says: (11:28:53 AM)

   nothing like an awkward story in a chineese restaurant to get you invited to everything from now on

Josh says: (11:28:56 AM)

   He gets to sit next to president Bush.

Jeff says: (11:29:02 AM)

   I think we have to sit Key at the table with Britney Spears

Josh says: (11:29:11 AM)

   Definitely.

Josh says: (11:30:09 AM)

   I want to sit with Kim Jong Ill and a couple of Tennesee rednecks. Keep the whiskey coming, this is getting good.

Jeff says: (11:30:34 AM)

   I get to sit with Boutros Boutros Ghali and Jessica Simpson

Josh says: (11:30:47 AM)

   LOL

Josh says: (11:31:05 AM)

   My table is definitely going to get in a food fight with yours.

Josh says: (11:31:28 AM)

   We'll sit in between the table with Rush Limbaugh and the Baldwin brothers.

Jeff says: (11:31:44 AM)

   can you imagine if any of this did actually happen? We'd be in a nursing home in our 80's going "Remember when we had that gala dinner with all those famous people" and the nurses would just roll their eyes and up our meds.

Josh says: (11:32:19 AM)

   Are you kidding, my nurse is upping my meds as we speak.

Jeff says: (11:33:38 AM)

   lucky fucker
