When you think about this thing being built as early as 150 BC, it's just baffling. 150 years before the birth of Christ! How in the WORLD did they do it??? How could they build this, and not have wall clocks or wristwatches? It's truly amazing. Almost makes a case for alien intelligence."Hey, thanks for the bracelet! Was that one for me?" - Michael Anthony to me in the Golden Ring in Grand Rapids, MI July 9, 2004
July 9, 2004 - Mike pressed a guitar pick into my hand!
"We're in the right place!" EVH @ The Joe in Detroit, July 10, 2004
"Hey! What's up!?" - Mikey, upon recognizing me in the Golden Ring in Chicago after getting his second bracelet, July 21, 2004
"What is uuuuuuuuuup!!!???" - Mike to me in Detroit, May 12th, 2005, after receiving third bracelet.
"You found me again!" - Mike to me in Detroit, Nov. 2, 2007

WOW.
"20 minutes (late to work)? Shit. Last year I woke up three weeks too late.My advice is to go for the alien abduction story. Look bemused, dishevelled and on the verge of tears as you recount your story of intrusive and degrading medical tests.Worked for me anyway. I still have colleagues asking me what it is like to fuck a green womanoid with seventeen breasts.Alternatively just walk in and inform everyone that alcoholism is indeed a disease and that they should be less judgemental and perhaps a little more supportive."- graeme on the addiction to this place.
