Jonathan Crowley's Birthday and MisShapes

Saturday night was Jonathan Crowley's birthday party! Jonathan (who you may remember as my partner in crime for the infamous "Hipster Jenga" incident of 2004. My version or his version) is Dennis' little brother, and before he quit doing his blog (like 2 years ago), he was pretty much one of my favorite photobloggers. (If you 've never read past gems of his like Operation: Racoon Bye-Bye or The Nugget King! do yourself a favor and take a little detour right now!)

Ok, so on Saturday night he was celebrating his bday at Ace Bar and I wanted to pop in to say hi (ok, and to play some Buck Hunter) before heading out for the night.

Here's the birthday boy getting his finger "ready for later." (Whatever that means!).

What happens when you get a double buck bonus on your birthday?

At this point in the night, Jay had racked up two triple buck bonuses (This is somethign that's seriously hard to do!) He promised us that if he managed to get a third triple buck bonus, something memorable would happen. Something more memorable than the worm? Ninja, please!

But then, it happened. No one thought he'd pull it off, but by god he did. Three triple buck bonuses so...

...the shirt came off and there was a screaming, shirtless victory lap made around Ace Bar.

So if you've read my site in the past, you know that a lot of my friends give me shit for looking like Billy Zabka (aka - Johnny "Sweep the Leg" Lawrence) from the Karate Kid. "Cobra Kai! No mercy!" Well, for the longest time, I'd been hearing from Jonathon that he has a friend who looks exactly like...
sweep the leg johnny
...the evil Cobra Kai Sensei. After years of arriving at bars and being told "Oh no! You just missed him! Cobra Kai Sensei was just here!" The stars finally aligned and we got together for...

me, will mcd
...this incredible photo op. Hahahah. How fucking scary is photo? Will looks 800 times more like Bad Sensei than I look like Johnny. His resemblance is uncanny! If there had been a lookalike "Daniel-san" in the bar that night, he totally would've shit his pants.

After J's party, I headed over to Misshapes 1.0. Sarah and a girl who's name I don't remember. (I just tried looking at her nameplate necklace in the hi-res version of her photo and I think it says Marya? So I'm either wrong, or I'm right and she just has a weird name).
