Sharky Bar:
The International Hash House Harriers and the dudes from the Angkor 10s rugby tournament came together for a night of drunken revelry. Lots of good natured fun. A few things stick in my mind:
- The dyke sisters chasing each other around the bar, playfully smacking each
other in the crotch. They are pretty cool and besides, sex with biological sisters who like to fuck each other is a gift from above. SO DIG IT. - Big A doing the RIGHT THING - taking command of the stereo and blasting Slayer, Saliva, Disturbed, Motorhead, and Godsmack loud enough to rattle the Commune Chief out of bed. It may have scared off some of the over-50 crowd but their Viagra-clocks were ticking and they were leaving anyway.
- The aging drunken runners (some stumbling around wearing massive backpacks) promised a crowd of 100+ and gave Big A about 4 hours notice to whip up a kick-ass buffet for them. He busted his ass, and the food was GREAT. But only about 50 people showed - and not all of them ate. Big fucking hassle.
- Sharky - Angkor 10s Rugby Cruise: Put 100 rugby players on a boat and add gallons of booze and some happy pizzas and what do you get? A bunch of monged out dudes having a chill cruise up the river. Lots of big smiles and slow stumbling. Fuck Beijing. They should have the 2008 Olympics here.
Califonia 2 - Sharky Boat Cruise:
It's a done deal. November 23rd: 7pm-11pm. $7 gets you a feast on a big ass boat. Tix available at Cali2 and Sharky Bar.
Bar 104:
Shout out to Martin at 104 for letting me roll up, breaking out some Curtis Mayfield, and not kicking me out eventhough it was way past 2am and his demanding (and sexy) Zanzibar girl wanted to get it on. Hey - Superfly and friends come first. Martin can dig it, so check out his place next time you are in that neck of the woods.
New Bird Bar (Street 240):
It sucked. Trying to cash in on the popularity of The Freebird, some Khmer dude did the Khmer thing and opened the completely un-related "New Bird." What can I say except, I probably won't go back. Was it the $2.50 vodka? The annoying motodops? The stench of garbage? The still air and the lack of fans?
Apartment:
Need an apt. Give me a heads up if you are looking. The place is located near Street 63 and 240; it's new - $150/mo: 4th floor walk-up with kick-ass views, a nice breeze, and they'll put in a/c, TV, fridge....2BR/3 bath and a blacony.
Finally, this post may have sucked, but this link doesn't:

I recommend you download the .wav file (about 10mb), and play it.

Actually, there is a connection between Freebird and New Bird - the New Bird was founded by two former waitresses who worked at Freebird before it was sold, refurbished and rebranded. It was an attempt to replace the old (looser and funner) atmosphere that used to reign at Freebird back when Paul owned it before it became a corporate sort of place.
Yeah, ditto, what jc said.

Thanks for the heads up guys. I liked the old Freebird (Although I think their cheeseburger was kind of over-rated.)I wonder if those waitresses are still involved. I met the Khmer owner (a guy) and a waitress/hostess who used to be at Black & White. PS: What's up at the Freebird? Changes at the Mart? Turning it into office space? Anyone know? Please chime in.
