The Foxy & The Damned

Staying in a lot lately. So when I hit the town the other night, I decided to mix things up a bit. Try something new. Usually it's a money-wasting disaster, but a lot seems to be happening near the river on streets 130 and 136, so I figured I'd check it out.

Happy Man Bar:
Haven't been here in a long time. Happy was still out front with the family and he still knows his customers by name - and drink. Not much had changed - fewer women working and maybe not as many stunners as before, but they made up for it in attitude. I stayed for 2 and even bought a lady drink. So far, so good.

Babylon Bar: (I think)
I heard this place was good. Turns out I was thinking about another place but whatever...It was good. Cuties left and right and the prices. Cool. The usual hostess bar $2.50/vodka. Sleek 'n Sexy parked herself on my thigh and we watched some movie in which Tim Allen turned into a dog and there was a monkey and everytime the monkey did something the girls would break up laughing and Sleek and Sexy would grab the inside of my thigh. I love that monkey. Good time but I was on a mission. 3 and out. Thumbs up on this place.

Flora Bar:
I've been hearing about this place for a while so I decided to check it out. Foxes working the place. Lots. The bartender seemed to know me from somewhere. So did the manager since she smacked me on the back every time she passed by. (Unless she just didn't like the looks of me...very possible.) I was digging the tunes and the girls were very, very on time. I heard right. Flora Bar is a win.

Boggie & Bacall:
I've been wanting to check this place out since WalkngBill and R-Cat got yelled at by the owner for showing up only on Sundays for the drink special. They called him an asshole and continue to show up only on Sundays. What the hell? It's a damn good special: All drinks are $1 - all day.

Anyway - I decided to go. It was OK. Can't argue with the name. Can't argue with the decor. Definitely can't argue with the Sunday drink special.....

BUT...
I can (and did) argue loudly with the gecko-fucking motodop that works out front. Little bastard demanded a $1 for the short ride to Sharky.* And the fucker wouldn't let up!!! Grabbed my arm and we almost had it out in front of Sharky Bar. He got 1000r and my undying hatred. As my tailor completes his voodoo doll,I think about Boggie & Bacall and...what can I say? What I remember most is that little bastard motodop. I spit on him 10,000 times!

So I probably won't bother going back because...really, this town has a hundred little bars just like this one - without the asshole motodop. I've since heard other stories about this dude and ask, Why hassle?

Sharky Bar:
Good crowd in town. 4-eyes, Plunger, Big Chef, Hawkeye, and....a Swedish Toilet Hitler.

(To be continued)



*Note: This would be 500r during the day - 1000r at night...I was even going to give him 1500r because I was loaded and in a good mood. But $? He got 1000r note and my undying enmity. Damn him to hell!!
