I’d like to say that Bryan Adams slept at my house and all I got was this lousy T-shirt.
Except that he stayed in my spare room, so it’s nothing for his fiancee to get upset about.
And the T-shirt is awesome. It says “Nerd Pride” on the front, and the back shows an ape transforming into a nerd through evolution. A pretty appropriate guest gift considering, well, we both write words on a web site for fun.
Oh, and as to why the picture is small?
It turns out a few beers will cause me to hit the “Movie” setting on my camera without realizing it. So we’re both standing still and smiling while being recorded. And all I have left to post is a screenshot.
Nerd pride indeed.
i especially like the little box that pops up with you mouseover the picture, that says “DORKS.” nice touch, howard.
it’s probably best that the picture is so small. i don’t think my heart could take it otherwise. just thinking about all that nerdy handsomeness together in one room makes me shiver. oh my.
Foxy.
Um, Greg, how on earth did you get Bryan Adams over for a sleep over?
I tried to secure Eddie Money for a pajama party but he isn’t answering my emails.
So Greg, did you think that Bryan has a much louder voice than you thought he would?
Loud voice? No, that didn’t strike me. He was exactly what I expected--a brainy funny schlub. He says I’m different in person, though, so you’ll have to ask him about that.
Oh ok, it must just be my delicate constitution. Anyway, I will.
so now the interweb is doing sleepovers instead of meet-ups? hmph. how did i miss that memo?
in other notes, did you have a séance? play light as a feather, stiff as a board? dance contest? do tell.
Just think. Someday a bronze plaque on your building, reading, “Bryan Adams Slept Here” and tourists asking, in Chinese probably, “Who the hell was Bryan Adams? Was he any relation to John Adams?”
snowy, to answer your question, *i* was certainly playing “stiff as a board,” if you know what i’m saying.
and I DO NOT HAVE A LOUD VOICE SO JUST SHUT UP EV.
Okay, I feel a bit like a sleepover crasher here, but having recently embraced my own geekiness, I had to comment on: a) how much I wish we could see the back of that t-shirt and b) how funny the “light as a feather” comments are. Let me know if anyone wants to play Ouija board…
Rawr!
(would kind of be a better comment if my new blog had the same name as the old one)
Dude!
That is funny shiznatty! I bet the movie of you two sitting there for a few minutes figuring out that a snap flash is not coming up is priceless!
Okay, first John Cougar Mellencamp, and now this.
If you have *any* pairs of ripped jeans, Greg, GET RID OF THEM NOW.
I read this post yesterday and had some sort of semi-witty comment, but before commenting I decided to check out Bryan Adams’ website...and, well, that was a mistake because he’s super intelligent and stuff and after about fifteen minutes my head hurt from attempting to process all of the logic and intelligent conversation…
...and so then I had nuthin’…
Have an exciting and fun-filled weekend, if possible...ciao…
sleep-over...hrumph. all i got was a sing-along at The Avenue and a screaming-like-a-girl geek on the roller coaster. You’ve all the cards, Greggie. I fold.
