FREE BEER!

so after two and half years of hard work and dedication to the place, i am finally VIP at the Kilkenny Irish Pub here in calgary. For those of you that dont know about the kilk, with the exception of the Haufbrau (spelling?) House in Munich, the kilkenny is probably one of the best pubs you can treat yourself to. Great food, great drinks, great servers, and just a great cozy irish atmosphere makes for one...well....great pub. And now, after many hours have been spent unravelling the mysteries of the universe over pint after pint of brew, i finally have been upgraded to VIP status. $2.50 off every drink (k maybe its not free beer...but that was just a ploy to get your attention). nice. nice. I guess some thanks are in order...

First of i'd like to thank my mom...she always believed in me and knew i could do it, even when sometimes i didnt think i had it in me. I'd also like to thank my dad for first showing me how to grip a beer bottle properly. Deep thanks goes out to all those clowns at all those bush parties growing up...i could never have gotten here without you, thanks guys. Thanks to my favorite server Katie expecially for finally giving me the honor. And finally, thanks to all you friends out there who never gave up on me and never said no when i sincerely asked "shall we go home to the kilk?" you have each in your own way made this feat possible, enjoyable and memorable (ok...some nights the memory is a little lacking...but apparantly those were my finest moments)...there are too many of you to list here, but you know who you are...

oh yeah...and on a more seriouse note, about the last post...yeah i definitly crashed and burned. that ship has now sailed....oh well. such is life. its probably for the best anyways.
