The Mic Is On — It’s Halloween!

October 31, 2006 by Liz

It’s Like Open Mic Only Different

Here’s how it works.

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

Tonight it’s Halloween!

We might also talk about

Halloween costumes and parties
Urban legends and childhood beliefs
trick and treats and childhood pranks
Haunted Housed and ghost stories

AND THE EVER POPULAR,
Basil the code-writing donkey, and Milton the Moose.

Even the Margaritas Were Leaking Links!

October 19, 2006 by Liz

It Was Beverage of Choice

It was Margaritaville on Tuesday Open Comment Night. We were celebrating being alive for another week. The Margaritas were BJ’s fine idea, and the margarita glasses were elegant to say the least. Still we made sure everyone had their beverage of choice. So things started out very nicely.

Then Link Leak Virus seeped into our discussion of what we would drink. — The Link Leak Virus is a special strain of the indie virus with blogtipping mutations that occur in threes at Open Comment Night they become a link free-for-all.

Welcome to Mike. It was great fun having you!

Delicious links were shared.

The Conversation Was Salty

How could the conversation be anything but interesting with a cast of characters like you find on open comment night here?
