I see, so now "SLOG Happy" is to become a drunken swap-meet where we all bring our useless detritous and attempt to get other people to haul it away, without accumulating more ourselves than what we bring in?

Yeah, that works for me. I've got some comps to my current show I could throw onto the pile of schwag...

Aw man, and I just got rid of my quack-tastic "toxin-clearing" salt crystal lamp. Oh well, maybe I'll turn up anyway.

You should give away Greyhound tickets to Winnipeg.

@1 Not exactly, COMTE, if I really wanted to get rid of the stuff cluttering my desk I'd punish you guys with promo copies of the new Candlebox record!

@1 - isn't it always?

i will be coming to slog happy straight from the new holly p-patch with a bagful of fresh local organic produce, which i will happily distribute to any and all sloggers, as I already have more than I know what to do with. Vegetarians get first grab. Of the produce, that is.

Look I'm half jewish, so when you use the word "free" it is like porno to me. Books, bumbershoot, or barnet, I try to be there

I'm not going unless the venue is muppet-friendly.

Wait, I need more info here, how exactly will you be giving away these tickets? A drawing? A drinking contest? A random number generator? A comparison of carbon footprints?

And we would punish you right back, Megan, and justifiably so.

last time i went i think i did end up with the junk from someone's desk... a magic eight ball and some sunglasses?

I plan to show up with a shitload of red and green mini buttons.

@12 Promises, promises.

@9 A drawing. You enter once when you first arrive and get your name tag. Then we'll draw the lucky winner's name a little later in the evening, after some snacks and drinks and mingling. And you'll have to be present to win.

At the "Hideout", is the NO MINORS sign at the main entrance or at the bar?

at the door
