Vacation, gotta get away

I have decided to take a real vacation this weekend, courtesy of the good folks at Northwest Airlines, who graciously bumped me from a flight last Thanksgiving. I leave Friday morning and will be back Monday evening. My hotel will have free high-speed Internet access, so I’ll be able to blog from away from home. And, since I have a cell phone, I can basically keep where I’m going a secret from everybody (except the TSA) until I am there… so you can play “Where’s Chris Lawrence” in the comments. One rule: Alfie is not allowed to guess.

Your first free hint: I am going somewhere I can see the Ole Miss-Arkansas game on broadcast television. That isn’t why I picked the destination, but it is a bonus.

Your second free hint: it’s not Memphis, since I’m going there next weekend to see the Ole Miss-Auburn game with my mom and stepdad. But I will be connecting in Memphis (this is Northwest).

I’m guessing New Orleans. Ever since I saw the gleam in your eye when you did the hands-free shot from the buxom barmaid who was holding the shot glass in her teeth the last time I was with you on Bourbon St., I knew you’d go back!

Why can’t I guess?

If I WERE allowed to guess, I’d ditto Scott’s guess of NOLA.

I’ll be in the GPT this weekend, so if it is NOLA, we’ll only be an hour away and will watch the Ole Miss-UPig game on the same channel; though, I also get it on the aptly named WXXV FOX 25 out of Gulfport.

 

Scott: First off, you left out the important detail that you paid for the shot. Second, I don’t recall her being particularly “buxom” (not that there’s anything wrong with that). And third, I’m pretty sure that was the time we were there for Southwestern (2002?) with Justin, Michelle, and Erik Göbel, which wasn’t the most recent visit (Jan 05) when we were pursuing your Gennifer Flowers fetish.

 

“you paid for the shot”

—- and I duly apologize for twisting your arm and forcing you into the drunken ballet involved in transferring that shot from her lips to yours. :)

—I forgot about that last visit. We would have made it back to your “favorite” Bourbon St. bar if we hadn’t been trying to escape the man I shall call the giant sphincter.

//we never did get to see Ms. Flowers’ nightclub act, did we?
