After the conclusion of the holiday season, it's about time to get this show on the road.

The 14 Beers Project shall reconvene at the soonest possible convenience of the original cast of characters. According to Ghostrider, a friend of his has agreed to sponsor the gathering at his establishment; so, venue this time will not be a problem. All we need to do is set a date for it.

As usual, this gathering is for after-dinner beers. 5FootCarrot has written that she will not be available on the 18th and 19th of this month while Upper Box has signified his preference for the 25th of January. Is the 25th acceptable to the 14 Beers regulars? Any other date preferences?

Will appreciate a reply from the 14 Beers regulars on this thread so that the proper arrangements can be made.

Of course, this gathering is not limited only to the regulars of the 14 Beers Project. We welcome like-minded individuals to join the 14 Beers Project. If you are so disposed, kindly indicate your interest on this thread (no PMs please). However, please note that due to space constraints at the venue (as well as concerns regarding internet security), an invitation may not be extended to all those interested.

Ghostrider, BleachersKing, let's get cracking!

Thanks.

Barring unforetold transportation deficiencies and unexpected plans for dinner at grandma's, the 25th is good

Is the new venue located in the same area as the old?

The 25th sounds good!

I'm okay for the 25th! hopefully, we can get a venue within the katipunan area unless you want somewhere along taft avenue. then maybe for kicks, we can burn down that school along taft.
bwa ha ha

BK,

Hmmmm, I don't think I hate PWU enough to want to burn down their building. Hehehe Anyway, venue will be in a great place, right Ghostrider. Sonic death monkey will PM you guys on the details (I think).


Carrot,

Don't worry about transpo, we will work something out, if necessary. And, regarding your grandma...bring her along!

am ok on the 25th.

Mav, what does Sonic Death Monkey want from you this time? Wesley's autographed shorts?

The 25th is ok for me too.

However, just consulted with my friend and his place is booked on the 25th.

So, if we push through with part II, it has to be in another venue.

Any suggestions? :confused:

hello all!

can't make it on the 25th girls' night out w/ high school barkada coz one of them's coming home for a vacation. unless you plan to drink on till midnight, maybe pwede ako humabol in time for our group picture-taking. hehe! btw, we'll be meeting up at some place near taft daw. i'm not joking.

sounds good. i'll try to put together some stuff for another raffle (no dvd set though, can't afford e! hehe)

awright! i hope umabot pa ko sa raffle

PG, since your "girl's night out" is somewhere in Manila, suggest mo na lang somewhere in Malate this time... Unless the majority would wanna have the venue somewhere in QC talaga. So all, which is the best place sa inyo???... Manila, Ortigas, or QC?

Hey miss d... tara, gawa tayo ng pirated copies nung DVD para may pampa-raffle...
I hope United States Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Market Access and Compliance William Lash III and Bong Revilla aren't reading this thread... :eek:

Hey, I still have leftover paputok from the new year celebration. Got a couple of kwitons, kabase, lolo thunders, whistle bombs, and some empty bottles of JC Tequila and Ginebra + kerosene... Hope those help... And let's make sure those Fil-Chinese Volunteers and Manila's Finest Firefighters won't do anything about it... It has always been my dream to throw something flammable into that school along Taft... It's a nice place for a "Mendiola II" and another "Bonefire Celebration II".

Are the ever-pacharming fangurls barred from coming?

"Kse, u knw, dey wana tok abt d PBA Draft noh. Chaka, Gec Chia making it sa Coke in d PBA, noh. Plus 4 sure dey r so inis coz Rico ended up as 7th pick nd Red Bull pa noh... Tpos, it's baha-baha na coz Paul Tanchi got kasal nah noh..."

Hey, I have an idea here... There's a place here along Makati Avenue... Malapit sya sa Olives, yung dating Orange. Para syang isang condo unit... Tayo na lang magdala ng beer... Whatchatink guys?

double post...sorry

QC is fine. I think Malate is quite far from where most of the regulars are coming from. Habol nalang po ako. Coffee-and-chismisan session lang naman yung gimik namin di ba so pwede sumibat.

Malate might be too far for most people. I think we'll have better attendance if we hold it in QC.

Pirated huh? LOL! Magagalit si William Lash, lagot si Bong Revilla

Looking forward to seeing you all again. And of course to meeting all the newcomers

Hello miss d...

Why not ipa-raffle mo na lang yung "It's Our Time" plus the other one... "Memories
From a Season of Grace". Any other merchandise from the A-Shop na pwede ipa-raffle?

BTW, anyone here got a copy of the DVDs na? I haven't... Pakopya na lang para may mapa-raffle ako sa next 14 BP...

That's my plan. So far, I have a couple of calendars, and a copy of the Memories book. Try ko pa yung It's Our Time.

Ayaw niyo Antipolo? Heeheeheehee Kidding.

Antipolo is fine with me...

Hi guys! I'll coordinate with Ghostrider as regards the venue. Hopefully, we can have it in a place to where most of the 14 Beers regulars can easily go. This probably means the QC area so we can say goodbye to a Malate/Taft Avenue venue. Will keep you guys posted.

Kidd, for her services, sonic death monkey (a.k.a., party organizer extraordinaire) is asking for a copy of the "It's Our Time" book signed by the Great Wesley. Yes, she is now officially a fangurl (like PizzaGuy).

miss d, thanks for the raffle items. Do you think we can rig the raffle so I can finally get my hands on some freebies? (By the way, I do want to order some of the Ateneo championship books from you so I guess you really will look like a tindera at 14BPII -- just like a certain VCD magnate at 14BPI.)

PizzaGurl, why don't you just bring your "friends" over to the 14BPII. Am sure the "boys" won't mind.

sounds interesting....

Mav, the VCD magnate has used up all his earnings during the holidays. Tsktsk! Anyways, I don't think my girl friends would wanna join us. They're not avid followers of the game and worse, they're from the other side. I just hope we're not having the 14BPII somewhere in Antipolo or some far-off places para naman makahabol ako. I'd love to go home with a freebie again. Hehehe!

I was just kidding about Antipolo. QC is fine, preferably someplace accessible (i.e., easy to drive to and find!).

Don't worry about looking like tinderas/tinderos, friends. Let's just say that the 14BP is doing its part toward supporting SMEs :cool:

Maybe we can just have it back at the old place, that wasn't so bad, buenas pa sa akin at nanalo ako sa raffle. I'll probably be going solo this time because janescoundrel is off in Clark for night flying and advanced navigation lessons. Ok daw sa kanyang mag-high speed pass sa venue as her participation. The 25th would be great and it will be even greater to see all of you guys again, not to mention I owe Miss D a couple of beers for the great job she did on cleaning up this Forum. Keep posted and see y'all there!

joescoundrel is right, the old place is fine. let's just not sit so close to the sound system this time

i will bring my lucky buddha and see if he can help me win something

If you want to change venues, there's a place in Libis that might be ok. I asked my friend who's related to the owner, she said they have rooms that we can reserve, and the food is ok, prices are affordable. If you want to move it there, just let me know, and I'll tell her to reserve for us

Miss D,

What's the name of the place? Pls. SMS or PM me.

Thanks

Hey ha...ur so kainis talaga Mav, ha? Tampo nako sayo...hmpf!



I can guess who that is... si BK!!! It's TRUE! It's TRUE!!!




I won't mind... Dala na rin kayo ng tikoy... Lapit na Chinese New Year! Kong Hei Fat Choi...



[ January 16, 2003: Message edited by: Pizza Guy ]

ghostrider, mav, and the rest: i will let you know by sunday if the place i suggested is free on the 25th

and for those who want me to buy copies of either the books or the DVD, please let me know by, perhaps monday or tuesday? don't know if i can get them for you at discounted prices, but at least delivery is free of charge

Please check your PMs, miss d.

Now, who is going and when can we expect information on where we are supposed to go?

hope to make it this time 1

hey guys! Just got back form the states and our national conference in cebu. Got the DVD set as a gift. Sohuld I bring it?

Ghostrider, I made a reservation at that place I suggested - Saturday, 8pm. I think we just have to make sure that at least one of us is there by 8 so that they don't give the room to another group. Baka kasi maraming tao since it's a Saturday. I'll try to be there early. Is Sonic Death Monkey still in charge of sending out invites?

Carrot, got your PM. Will bring your copy on Saturday

Ghostrider,

Please text me details of party.

Thank you

Thanks for the update, miss d. I will inform ms. sonic death monkey regarding the invites.

Any last minute requests for invites? Please holler now or forever hold your peace.

hey guys! i've sent out the first batch of invites through pm. please confirm your attendance on this thread. have a nice time guys! (maverick, you owe me an autographed book, ok.)

Gaslighting_abbie, got your PM. Glad to hear you can come, see you on Saturday.

By the way, anymore last minute requests for DVD/book deliveries? I already have the books for 5footcarrot and Maverick

Confirming attendance! Will bring P500 for my book

EDIT: May valet parking ba doon?

[ January 21, 2003: Message edited by: 5FootCarrot ]

i can make it. see ya'll.

I can make it too!

Will drop be for half an hour at exactly 8 Gotta' pick up S.O. at airport by 9, see you

Giantnrs2,

After you drop off your S.O./wife/girlfriend at home, come back to the 14 Beers. You won't regret it. Believe me. It would be great to see you again (P.S., Something tells me that I may have gone to school with you).

mav,
maybe we can invite fried green potatoe (did i get his name write?), painkiller supreme, and their ilk. after all, we need some comedy relief.

BK,
Fried Green did say that the 14 Beers sounded interesting. But, according to his profile, he's in New York; so, I doubt if he can make it this Saturday.

While I don't want us to be accused of discrimination, let me just point out that with them around we'll probably forget to drink to the healths of the Eagles of the past 14 years again. (Which, of course, is a good excuse to get together a third time...)

Well, I don't think they'd be too happy once they see Maverick's old "If you can't go to college..." t-shirt.

Why not? They may even get nostalgic for those innocent and carefree days!
