Eddie, the "Main Man"

A Memory of Eddie K Au by Andrew Chen

I have so many fond memories of Eddie. I was lucky to have met him after his college days, completely at random at a club in NYC. A Boston University alum, we hit it off pretty well and became fast friends. When I think of eddie, this what goes through my head.

- his love of Kylie Minouge and other small cute blondies
- 63 bagel bites, grand theft auto and fireworks with all his pals from his pad in Kenmore square
- six straight days of tennis till eddie sprained an ankle
- a cd compilation called eddie's favs
- not letting eddie drive his jetta at night....or at all really
- Chilling with Eddie and Fleming at the W in NYC, go-karting and other shenanigans in Montreal, getting the nickname "Nature Boy" at a cabin north of Toronto since eddie, as we know, is such as outdoorsman
- 2 awesome ski trips to Killington which i think he both organized
- my skydiving partner in Rhode Island, walking around in flightsuits singing "leaving on a jetplane", having a great lunch afterwards, and feeling that after doing that, there's nothing in this world that can't be done
- Guys Night Outs, watching him chat up a brick wall at Club nicole, his birthday party at the Living Room, escaping from angered cab drivers in the Civic, carrying me single handed back to safety after a crazy night at 33.
- How happy he was when he moved into his first condo

I will always remember eddie's non-stop energy, funny quotes and quirky mannerisms. I will also remember how he truly loved his family as he expressed it often. A truly incredible friend. Rest in Peace my man.

  • The last time I was in Boston (a few month ago), I brought back some of Eddie's CDs. I got one called "Andrew's Favorites," which I figure is yours =). I didn't see an "Eddie's Favorites" though. Do you still have that one? If so, I'd like to get a copy of it, if possible? Also, who's "Spank Me?" I have her/his favorites too haha.

  • I had forgotten about the CD's. I will have to look to see if I stumble upon Eddie's Favorites. This was a project that we did amongst our friends to come up with cd mixes to distribute to each other. Though i was the brainchild of the idea, Eddie was the main compiler for everyone using napster and his cd burner. "Spank Me" was a nickname that we secretly gave to one of our friends named Karen. We knew 2 Karens at the time and jokingly referred to them in conversation with other friends as Model Karen and Spank Me Karen, in order to quickly identify the person we were talking about. Model Karen was a semi professional model (terrible personality-----so boring in our eyes) and Spank Me had that something about her personality (call it spunk, or naughtiness that we imagined) that lead to that name (we both thought that she was kinda cute and even cuter with her little attitude, that Eddie probably thought that she deserved a spank or 2, all in jest of course). And I of course blame eddie for the name since he's not here to defend himself.
