Event:
I have no idea where to start. This was proably the best party I've ever thrown. This year at New Years (Jan.1), I wasn't able to throw a party so I decided to post-pone it a bit untill the 1st of March. This party started officially at 5:00pm on friday afternoon. I really drank the first beer at 3:30pm and the last drink at 2:00pm on Sunday.... oddly enough I was the first and last to drink... but, it was my party so. The first ones to show up were Ben and Gabe. Ben brought vodka (of course) and Gabe brought a few pizzas... everyone loved him for it too. We left Gabe at the house and Ben and I left for a beer run. During the time that we were gone, Leslee showed up I was told, I was kinda bummed that I missed her. So in anycase, the keg of Killian's that I ordered never came in and we ended up buying the last case at the shop. I'm not really sure what happened next, just that Jenna didn't shove her tounge down anyone's throat at this point cuz she wasn't there yet... not that she did when she got there either... OK, back to the story. We picked up a bunch of beer and a bunch of liquer (i don't even know 'er). We got back to the house, Gabe had already cooked up one of his pizzas so we had za to go with our beer and with that, the party began. Jim showed up around 8:00, Aaron showed up about 6:30. I guess the first notable event was our first brawl... not so much since we were beating each other (this was common) but that i was wearing a kilt in true scots form (this was less common). ...to go to bed, i'll work on this more tomorrow... --pete

Carnage Weekend '97

The Players:
Pete (the Host), Ben-Gabe-Andy Landowski, Andy Marvin, Bill Barney (like the dinosaur), Michelle Compagni, Ricky Wong, Worth Godwin, Aaron Hackett, Amy (Andy M's girlfriend) ...seems like there were more people

Event:
Welcome to Carnage Weekend '97! It's Valentines Day weekend here in Cortland and we don't have dates. As an alternative to the normal type of taking your significant other to dinner and stuff I decided to throw at party that brougt together the themes of testosterone, male bonding, killing and blood. The only way we could legally pull this off was to throw a network gaming party. This basically constisted of a network server and everyone bringing their own computers from home to hook up. Once everything was set up, we then pull up out favorite game and beat the hell outta each other: presto, instant male bonding. Once again, Aaron showed up Thursday night and proceeded to get trashed. Friday I had to work, but got home by like 6:30pm with Ricky, 4x12packs of Killians and all the Boones Pina Colatta in stock at the local Tops Feindly Market. ...it's time to go home, I'll finish this later I guess...

Notable Events:


Spontaneous Party 1

The Players:
Pete (the Host), Ben Landowski, Gabe Landowski, Andy Landowski Aaron Hackett, Bill Something, Andy Marvin, Laura Something, Michelle Compagni, Jacki Something, ...seems like there were more people.

The Event:
Well, it was Friday (yesterday) and Aaron came to town. This is usually an excuse for a party. We went to the store and bought 3 12s of Killians Red (a true party beer) and many bottles of Boones Cheap Wine. We then got Ben, got KFC, and got home. We started drinking lightly and watching TV then Andy Marvin and Gabe showed up.... we really started drinking then. I was drinking the Boones, Ben was drinking everything Aaron was drinking beer, and Gabe... he was drinking beer too I think. (hey, it was 12 hours ago!) O... and Andy Marvin was drinking green stuff left over from last years new years party. At this point Ben went to do a shot of the green shit Andy was drinking. Ben tossed the shot back, the shot tossed Ben back. Very impressivly got it all right in the sink. Thanks Ben. All this while Andy Marvin was getting his ass kicked in NetMech... see, we've got 2 machines on a network here, it's cool. About this time Andy L and Bill showed up. The house started to smell at this point... we're not sure if it was because of Ben's issue or Bill's feet. Oh... and for a while after Gabe showed up we listened to all the "war stories" from Ben and Gabe. I'm not quite sure what was happening but I guess a few people were entertained. I was just confused, they were way too hyper. It got on later and this girl who knows Aaron showed up (this is just something that happens) and she was wearing a dress that didn't really cover her chest. It was kinda tacky.... Oh, that was Laura. A little later Gabe decided he could play guitar (he can't), so I set up on my drum kit and we jammed. Then Bill took over; he can play guitar.... and Andy Landowski joined in on bass. It was cool, then it got too late and we had to get quiet. Then Michelle showed up to see Aaron and this pissed off Laura. Of course she jump on him so I guess none of this was a surprise to anyone. A little later on we had a cool big battle type thing. I must confess that I ruled the whole scene. It was cool. It actually started out with Gabe beating on Aaron ("he's a big bully" ). He was wearing my new snowboarding boot so I got into it to protect my boots. So there I was... kicking ass. Out of tradition I called for an ice tray and we started throwing ice cubes and stuff. As I stated before, I throw good parties.. I think it was about then that Barbara called... she's my friend in Washington... the state, not D.C. By midnight, everyone was pretty drunk. ...and consequently, everyone couldn't piloet their mech's either... except me of course. Around 3:00am I kinda got crazy with a dry erase marker... I tend to start drawing on people after I've been drinking for 8 hours. Aaron got a large Mr. Pain on his chest and Ben got that whole upside down face thing on his chin. I was actually quite impressed with Ben's whole act, most of us were on the floor crying with laughter... a lot of things seem funny at 3:30am tho. The party started winding down at about 4:00am with the trial of drunkenness between myself and aaron, which of course I was victorious in. I kicked his ass with an Elemental. People started going to bed about 5:30am ....I got to sleep at like 6:00 myself. Aaron also wanted me to point out that he and Michelle obeyed all the rules (see rule #1)... oh and that he "kicked everyone's ass in the battle royal".

Saturday: Nothing much happening as of 3:30pm... we're watching hockey and everyone else is having hangovers. I got up around 11:30 and cleaned up as much as I dared. I have no idea what's happening tonight.

It turned out that the party only lasted that one night. Saturday night we were all recovering and Sunday was just like a cleaning day.

SuperBowl Party '97

Pete (The Host), Aaron, Ben Landowski, Pete VanDusen, Jake Wilcox

Event:
Well, I had just gotten the house and it was like superbowl time. Unfortunately this wasn't a well published party weekend so it didn't end up as amazing as some. Friday night we went downtown. Satuday night we stayed home and drank a lot. Sunday was drank A LOT!
Pete:"Were we drunk the sunday of the superbowl?"
Aaron:"You were butt wasted by the time I woke up at 2:00"
I must protest tho.... Pete VanDusen was wasted too. By the way, much thanks to Pete's S.O. Jenn for letting him come play with us. We watched Beavis and Butthead afterwards... huh huh... it sucked.

The Players

Pete Cowan: I am Pete.... the host.
Aaron Hackett: Aaron is a cool friend I've known since Jr.High. We are both a really bad influence on each other. We tend to drink a lot when we share company. We tend to be the centers of the party and Aaron almost always gets beaten upon at least once per party. He's pretty proud of that
Ben Landowski: Brother to Gabe and Andy, and Army guy extrodinaire. Ben plays Duke Nukem 3D really well. Ben, as with Gabe, gets interesting when drunk. Ben:"that mean I'm otherwise uninteresting?"
Gabe Landowski: Brother to Ben and Andy, and Psycho Army guy. Gabe gets... well... I guess hyper would be the word. At my New Years Party last year (95-96) he was guarding the top of the stairs with the password Apple to which he believed the counter password should be pie. Whenever anyone would come to the top of the stairs, Gabe would yell APPLE! and whoever was coming up the stairs would say "huh?". Gabe would then point his lack of rifle in the face of the unfortuante and shout "APPLE MOTHERF*CKER, APPLE!. I think this really sums up Gabe.
Andy Landowski:
Jim Tollar: Jim is my old roommate from college. He love a good party... and he drinks beer well.
Michelle Compagni: It's hard to describe Michelle without offending at least one person so I won't.
Andy Marvin: Brother to the Late Great Christopher M. Marvin ...he's not dead, just married(incidently, Chris's wedding was probably the best party I have ever been too, and he's married to a cool gal, so it's not that bad). Regardless... Andy is cool, he just need to stay away from sugar: he used to be called Sugarhigh Marvin. He has a cute girlfriend too, but she's way too young.
Pete VanDusen: Pete my friend Pete, not me the 3rd person Pete.
