luck of the irish

so last friday night...some girls and i made a hardfast effort at drinking some green beer......it turned out to be a bit of an epic adventure.....we lined up....we chatted up......we charmed.......we shivered in the cold behind some scotsmen in kilts (but couldn't complain 'cause i'm sure they were colder)........i had my first poutine (with mushroom gravy, mind you -- not very irish but oh so tasty)......we relished the pogues and sank some beverages.......but alas, they were not green......

towards the end of the evening, we met one of the boys at a pub in kits.....it went something like this:

we sat and drank and mocked in good measure......

and as we conversed.....suddenly.......and oh so abruptly.....i jumped out of my seat.......i sprang up with a start....like a leprechaun, i flew 2 feet in the air........what prompted such a feat?.......well, it was something like this:

a full and frothy pint of beer went cascading down my back....from the nape of my neck to the badunc-a-dunc-dunc of my posterior........i had a beer bath ....

although not as picturesque (or as green) as this bath with beer.......

it was remotely less disturbing.........

......perhaps the dude thought i wanted to try a more affordable version of one of these products:

thoughtful?

he did go to the bar to get me a towel...... and on his return....he extended the towel towards my rear end, as if he were going to clear up the damage that way .......no way, jose (or whatever your name is).......he had done quite enough and i was able to pat my own behind to relatively less-wetness.....

at least he wasn't like this guy...... http://www.nearlygood.com/video/beerclean.html ......that could have gotten QUITE interesting.....

perhaps he just needed a little prior practice here:
