Not much went on

December 9, 2000 by Michael Boyle

here yesterday – it ended up being a hyper work day. I woke up early and since a) I had a ton to do, and, b) I have office keys, I went in to work at about 7am. I hoped that I would be able to cut out early to get ready for our office Christmas/5th Anniversary party – but alas it wasn’t to be so.

But the party was fantastic anyway – we took over the largest and nicest club in Montreal for the night. It was pretty swanky, but although we’re getting bigger and stuff, we’re still a very DIY company. So no polished corporate promo stuff to get everyone pumped – just low-key, booze-fueled fun. Pass the tylenol.

Last night was

June 30, 2000 by Michael Boyle

the 15th anniversary party for the Montreal Mirror, the first of the 4 weeklies in Montreal. I crashed the party they had at a club called Le Swimming (not much of a feat), but I was disappointed that there weren’t any speeches or anything. They would have added life to the party, that’s for sure. A lot of people were there just to witness a faux-pas, for sure – but as it was, “nostalgic beer bash” was the operating principle. Oh well.
