    I'm betting in this bar there's never a shortage of anything you want (to drink)...or good company!

  6. I remember in high school coming back from a tournament in Bloomington with our coach and stopping at a bar at the corner of two county roads in the middle of fuck-all near Pontiac. It was in late January and cold and snowy. There was a freezer case by the door, and you picked out your steak and they'd throw it on the grill. Then you went in side, got a plate, scooped up some sides, got your drink, and then found a table. Then they brought you your steak.

    That was a fun night. Coach called the school and said we'd been snowed in in Bloomington. We got a couple of rooms at a hotel and partied for a couple of days.

  19. Clinton, Arias: Zelaya return could help end Honduras crisis

    US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Costa Rican President Oscar Arias said Monday that ousted leader Manuel Zelaya's return to Honduras offers an opportunity to end the country's political crisis.

    "Now that President Zelaya is back it would be opportune to restore him to his position under appropriate circumstances, get on with the election that is currently scheduled for November, have a peaceful transition of presidential authority and get Honduras back to constitutional and democratic order," Clinton told reporters as she met with Arias in New York.


    /of course what she didn't say is that Zelaya sneaked back in and is now hiding in the Brazilian embassy to avoid arrest by the de facto government

  47. PBJ,

    Actually, I LOVED the first one.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Bar Wench funny short story.

    Several years ago I was driving the beer cart at a golf tournament. I was blessed with two very nice looking Hooter's girls on the cart that day.

    My wife called to ask how everything was going. I told her who I was riding with and she told me to put them on speaker phone. I complied and she told them not to worry...that I was completely harmless.

    Took all of the wind out of my sails...lol

  58. Thank you Bar Wench.

    ETR...a Tecate with lime for you my friend?

    ReplyDelete
  59. I've never had Scotch. Does jameson's count? I guess that's Irish, not scotch.

    anyway, one late night at some bar off Temple bar in Dublin, after about a dozen pints I did a couple of shots of Jamesons and LOVED IT.
    Before I left I went to the distillery and got a bottle.
    When I got home several weeks later I tried it, sober. Hated it!!! Never drank it again.

    I guess everything tastes better when you're drunk. Explains why White Castle is busy at 2 AM

    ReplyDelete
  60. Bar wench, you have something against the Irish?
    Lucius, you hear about the dog that walks into a bar, one of his front feet is bandaged. He puts both front feet on the bar, looks around, and announces, "I'm looking for the man who shot my paw."

  61. I'll take a Kamikaze on the rocks, fair wench.

  82. A brief hello to everyone 'cuz I've got to get back to bed. But I wanted to give you some gossip. Husband was at a fundraiser for Bernie Sanders tonight (hey, he's a lobbyist, comes with the job). Mostly union people there, with, as usual, some other members who come to his fundraiser so he'll come to theirs.

    Anyhoo, EVERYONE was railing against Obama about health care. They're all afraid they'll get a 'weak' bill, i.e., no public option. The union people are afraid their guys will be taxed just by virtue of their income level. Sanders said he had informed the White House that if he got a weak bill, he wouldn't vote for it. And guess who pontificated about how Obama has broken EVERY promise.

    John Conyers.

    That would be the Dem from Michigan, head of the House Judiciary Comm., who initially asked for a hearing on why DOJ had dropped the investigation into the Black Panther voter intimidation case in Philly. Then he backed off, saying it was because 'the powers that be' requested him to.

    However much the media is cover how the White House is getting grief from a bunch of racists Americans, it's also getting a lot of grief from its base, apparently.

    ReplyDelete
  83. Good news, Atilla! More grief for Obama! MORE MORE MORE!!

  84. OLD people have problems that you haven't even considered yet!

    An 85-year-old man was requested by his doctor for a sperm count as part of
    his physical exam.

    The doctor gave the man a jar and said, 'Take this jar home and bring back
    a semen sample tomorrow.'

    The next day the 85-year-old man reappeared at the doctor's office and
    gave him the jar, which was as clean and empty as on the
    previous day.

    The doctor asked what happened and the man explained, 'Well, doc, it's
    like this--first I tried with my right hand, but nothing. Then I tried
    with
    my left hand, but still nothing.

    'Then I asked my wife for help. She tried with her right hand, then with
    her left, still nothing.
    She tried with her mouth, first with the teeth in, then with her teeth
    out, still nothing.

    'We even called up Arleen, the lady next door and she tried too, first
    with both hands, then an armpit, and she even tried squeezin' it between
    her knees, but still nothing.'

    The doctor was shocked! 'You asked your neighbor?'

    The old man replied, 'Yep, none of us could get the jar open.'

    ReplyDelete
  85. Lucius, that one should come with some kind of warning, don'tcha think? :-)

  86. A local bar that I've had drinks with Doppelganglander at has a very nice 70s era nude painting over the bar. Adds a touch of class, doncha know.

  91. Erik,

    Ok, I have a better story 'cuz it's true. This was back in the late '50s in a small town in Pennsylvania during the summer. Dad came out of a meeting onto the street to see a woman who appeared to be about 11 mos pregnant holding onto a car for dear life, crying/laughing hysterically. So of course he held her and told someone to call an ambulance.

    No. She didn't need an ambulance. She got her story out, finally. She was on her way to the OB/GYN who had told her to bring a urine sample. Which she had deposited in a very pretty perfume bottle that she left on the dashboard while she went into a store to get a few things. Being summer, she had left the window down.

    When she got back to the car, that lovely perfume bottle was - gone.

    LOL. Poor fools wife/lover who got that as a gift.

    I have a true one;

    When I was 16 I had a friend sleep over for my birthday. I had a 11 month old sister. My friend went to the fridge in the middle of the night to get something to drink. The next morning my mom asked us, at breakfast if either one of us had seen the milk she had expressed for my sister. You should have seen the look on my mates face. It was priceless. I still rag him about this when he calls me,every year for my birthday.

    ReplyDelete
  99. Later, CCers. Going to get a bite to eat & maybe another martini or two. Might see you all later tonight.

    Take care everyone.
