Cool Actually, I'm throwing a big sangria party tonight

It's at R&R, on Main St., from 9 PM until 3 AM. Just mention that you're there for the sangria party at the door and you'll get a wristband that entitles you to no cover and free sangria all night. You have to show up by 11 to get the wristband, but if you show up later, I'll be the guy serving the sangria so just introduce yourself and I'll hook you up. :-)

BTW, if you're having a hard time finding R&R, just look for the bar w/ the sapphire blue SLK parked out front. ;-)

SLK, well depends on how good of a friend is your friend is. When I went to Cadillac challenge about 3 yrs ago and i also found out u gotta be 21 to drive the cars (otherwise u're just passenger all the way) my friend and i switched tags (since i was the one invited initially anway). After having blast with a whole buncha caddys, Mercs, BMWs, lexus, jags, etc he definitely regreted giving me the tag :-)

Sounds good, what time?

I have a party to attend that night, but that can be earlier or later. Where is "our usual spot?" Galleria area behind Jamba Juice?

I just moved into a new place so been busy. But I'm going to try to be there since I havent been around in a while. Please let me know the time and place (I assume Jumba Juice in Galleria). Lhoang your ride look sweeeeet! Can't wait to check it all out. Does it play SVCDs or VCDs? I was thinking of converting the videos from Sunday C-spot party to either format. Later guys.
