    Well if you need to sober up a trip to the Skyway Lounge should do the trick.

    If by "one," Luggy, you mean "seventy-four," I will.

    And Bubba: Said bar also serves food, thank God, for when I need to soak things up.

    Also, I've asked about the quality of the urinals, which is important to me for a number of reasons. Excellent, I've been assured.

    I'll be there tomorrow night before my Jays clobber Moddy's Nats if anyone wants to buy me one. Or two.

    I couldn't get past the fact that there was somewhere in the world where you could buy eight bottles of beer for $8. ???

    Dude, eight bottles of Heineken.

    That place was Heaven. Still can't believe it's gone. Sigh...

    Yeah, with a profit margin like that and all.

    How'd you like those fingers shoved... on, never mind. :)

    I was in Minneapolis for more than a week last time I visited. Remember it feeling like a long time, but that had to do with other things beside the city. The place does kind of have a milqtoast quality, on the whole, but some nice-looking women and overall nice people... and some of the hipster places downtown aren't too bad.

    Well, it was a casino, Ace. Westward Ho. I'd go in there with ten bucks, get eight beers and give two bucks to Manuela behind the bar, and come back out on the Strip nice and toasty. Goldmine.

    Big Ragu: I've only been to Minneapolis once, for a Blue Jays swing. I liked it just fine. You're right about the women.

    Plus, if we just named some bar in New York or Boston, what's the fun in that? (Although P.J. Clarke's, Sevens, and Bukowski's got my original votes. I didn't win.)

    I think I saw you the last time you were in Vegas.

    Enjoy the bar trip. Sounds like great fun. Don't spill suds on your notes.

    What notes? This sounds like a stream-of-consciousness piece in the making.

    Or stream-of-unconsciousness, as the case may be. :)

    Wow. Figures - I'll be with my in-laws during that time. :mad:

    Good luck, Jones. Sounds like a rockin' good time.

    Ha, ha. Get it? Minneapolis? Target?

    Even when you're not trying to be money, you're money.
