Who's the metrosexual guy on the right of the group shot?





Shane, I see you are wearing a sweater to cover up the fact that you can't tie a tie properly, eh?

Glad you guys had a good time.

Glad to see three old friends meet up again.

Meanwhile, back at Adrian's hoose, Ed is currently passed out on Adrian's bed, having spend most of the early morning hours driving the big white bus. Paulie is out chasing women wearing birkas and me? I'm half-pissed and about to order more food on Brenda's card.

I just woke up. Where am I? And John, where's the booze? I need another drink.

I don't chase women. I sit back and let them come to me.

Who do you think was having the better time?

Let me see. One group sitting in a resturant paying for their food and drinks.

The other group hanging loose, drinking other people's booze, eating other people's food, playing with other people's toys, . . . . Need I go on.

You make the call.
