¬øHack Club in Breckenridge?
Yep, but it never would have happened had Jordan not promised us broadband internet access. Jess, Mike, Danny, Justin, Jordan and I rolled up to Breck on Friday night. We spent ample time geekin out, brainstorming, and daydreaming project ideas. But you’ll see the fruit of that sometime in ‘06.
Fierce Sh**head competition and a little PBR catapulted us over to swank little pizza joint called Eric’s on Saturday night. Danny asked our waitress where some fun spots in town might be…
Waitress hopped up on red bull: You could go down to Bar #1, it’s a bump and grind kinda place.
Danny [our spokesman]: Uhhh, are there any other places you’d recommend?
Waitress hopped up on red bull: Yeah, Bar #2 is a sorta dance club…yadda yadda
Danny: Uhhh, anywhere else?
Waitress hopped up on red bull: Umm, Bar #3….
Danny: [Just for good measure] Anything a bit more laid back?
Waitress hopped up on red bull: What are you guy’s looking for, a martini bar?
Danny: [mutters] I think that was insult…Ok thanks
Who says “bump and grind”? And who drinks red bull until 10 o’clock at night? I hope she got some sleep. We trudged our way down main street aiming at Bar #3, seemed like it’d be a bit more chill and conducive to hack club chatting. Well since all three bars were in the same building we surveyed the situation.
Bump and Grind: Nope
Dance Club, that looked like a regular bar without dancing: Yeah
Bar #3: Never got a look
It took an hour of hovering in the corner talking about new web apps over vodka tonics for us to get a little social. I ran into an old REI co-worker, Jordan got called sketchy by some girl.
Ok, no kicker here. I just had a damned good weekend and thought you ought to know about it. Go to the mountains to kick it old school w/ 802.11b, meet delusional waitresses, and eat vegetarian chili with fake meat that tastes like real meat.
