SOTU!

What do you call 100 people eating food, drinking drink, and watching the President’s sitcom-length SOTU address with bingo cards in their hands?

A damn good time.

Thanks to all who attended and congratulations to the winners of SOTU Bingo. We’ll definitely do it again next year, and Founding Fathers was just phenomenally welcoming and helpful with the planning of this event.

Cheers to BuffaWhat, Elly, Watchdog, Michele Johnson, Amy, Red, Paul Fallon, Kevin Hardwick, Jessica, and Joan. Calanan from Flickr will have photos up later.

    Thanks for the great party, BP. Watching that atrocity with other people seemed to make me feel a little more sane. I’m sorry I did not get a chance to introduce myself to you. Next time for sure.

    It looks like I missed something good last night. Darn & I missed out on meeting Marc too ;)

    Sounds like fun, I’m sorry I couldn’t be there but we had ourselves a fun/interesting time in Amherst at the LWV sprawl panel… Or something like that.

    This is how TV should be watched–socially. Definitely a must for the Presidential debates.

    I’ve decided to pass a law that TV reporters must administer a breathalizer before putting a mic in your face.

    Sorry I missed it-my foot flared up after shoveling.

    Elly – I didn’t post the video. I posted a link to the video.

    But I guess friends don’t let friends get interviewed whilst drinking.

    Or

    Buzzed interviewing is drunk interviewing.
