    Yours truly has been assigned the terrible burden of having to sit and drink in a bar for three days and write about it.

    The bar in question is in Minneapolis.

    I will be there on the 6th, 7th, and 8th of July, from the time said bar opens until it closes.

    I need spotters.

    Please submit your resumes via PM. Benefits include some drinks on me. I am an equal-opportunity imbiber.

    Pray for Mojo.

    I believe travelocity, orbitz, et. al. will be deluged with flight request to Minneapolis after the reading of this post

    Jones,

    I didn't know Alcoholics Anonymous even had a periodical. Congrats on the assignment.

    Wish I could be there to lift a pint.

    To make a long story short: The bar, the identity of which shall remain secret until the drinking begins, might be named the Best Bar in America by Esquire magazine, depending on how much fun I have there.

    However, as I will be in a bar, and I will be running a tab on my employer's credit card, I think I should have plenty of fun.

    Just hoping to share the joy, is all.

    I preferred the establishments in St. Paul to those in Minneapolis. Do you have time for a sidebar?

    Do you think your employer would consider picking up the tab at The Loose Moose during the Toronto outing?

    Alas, like Luke Skywalker taking aim at the Death Star, I must stay on target.

    No, but I stand by my offer of buying the first round Friday night -- and not at fucking SkyDome -- so long as everybody orders a Canadian beer.
