I have multiple stories about McSorley's just like everyone else who goes there (sounds like it would be a good online community - listening McSorley's?)

The first time I ever went there was a Saturday afternoon in the Fall. There was a group of girls with some space at their table, so we just joined in. We kept the barmaid hopping for most of the afternoon .... need to mention also how the barmaids can carry around 12 - 14 mugs at a time by holding one with each finger and then strategic pressure on the entire round of beers, there's probably a record holder of some kind ... anyway, crowds had started to line up outside & the pub owners had been paying attention. They actually came over to the table and asked all of the girls to either a) increase their consumption or b) leave!

No PC on their part .. keep up or get out. My buddy and I just waved so long and continued with our merriment.

BTW to get a sense of when this was, they only had co-ed bathrooms at the time.

It is a great brand, I used to proudly wear my "We were here before you were born" shirt around until it disintegrated.. and I try to return whenever possible, usually bringing along someone new so I can share the brand's story with them as well.

I'm curious about the Google campus .. are there vending machines or concession stands where you can pick up some of that google juice everyone is trying to get?

Shawn .. I don't have any problem with the typing actually so it's prob a matter of preference. I'm even using it to take notes in meetings etc. these days.

I still haven't been diligent about transitioning to Google Voice yet .. seems like there are too many work arounds (GV Iphone App issues now too). Since my cell phone is really my primary number anyway, most calls / sms work fine. It's the voicemail to email that really excites me about GV.

I'm anticipating when we are able to port our current numbers over to Voice I will implement it even more, but for the time being I am going slow.

Jim .. speaking of doing podcasts, I was going to mention during the recording that I always enjoyed the conversation during Video Ninjas. If you and @magnify could carve out the time to get together again it would be worth resurrecting. Video is still a great topic.

LOL .. Shawn, just saw your comment. I love those 80's tear away jerseys in the photo. Was that one of the worst ideas ever?.... don't know why but Irving Fryar comes to mind when I see those types of jerseys.

Not sure about the Atari team, I was more into Coleco football, but maybe to stay in the football theme we're like the great Monday Night Football three man booths .. Gifford, Cosell, Meredith .. or maybe OJ.... but who is who??
