Monday Night's Alright for Fighting


Happy St Patty's Day!


All things considered it was an entertaining if not traditional night out with Power Ranger and Cockarot Dundee. Since Rory's, Wooley Rhino and their ilk were packed with dick swinging revelers, alot of the girlie haunts were mostly Y chromosome free. Acid Jazz at Hooters (Pussycat Bar) started off the evening and made it hard to leave the music was so good.
Where is it written that every bar has to spin the same tedious mix of threadbare hip-hop at voice coil busting volume? Nice call gals, I'll be back. Or perhaps I should say nice choice.


While discussing where Dundee should tie his kangaroo down and boil his billy, he had the great idea of strapping on the feed bag over at P-Cat's sister establishment, Rose Bar. A succulent steak and equally mouth watering eye candy provided a lusty repast. Once again, we were rewarded with great music at conversational volume. Great food, good tunes, fantastic view... what's not to like?


An interesting little bar further down the street is "Bunny Bar" characterized by the playboy graphics gracing the walls. Lacking aircon or good lighting it has kind of a open garage bar feel without scores of dudes vying for all the female attention. There's a laptop with a wonky version of Windoze Media Player, a few swapped around keys (QWERTY is QWERTZ), and a nearly useless mouse that will test your Buddhist tolerance. While queuing up a playlist an errant poltergeist in the machine wiped out my carefully chosen selections.... 4 times. Still, everything considered not a bad little place.


Recalling good reco's from DonBong, the godfather himself, a unanimous decision was reached to swing by the big M to see what's changed. Arriving on fumes I filled up on the corner to the tune of $19!! Once inside I was pleased to see not much has changed at all. Plenty of scenery, african playaz frightening the local girls, Pattaya garbagemen, and best of all the same god-fearing drink prices and quantities. (At $2 for a very stiff cocktail, the big M along with Cali 2 remains #1 in value IMHO)


We were enjoying the show on the dance floor when a few words were exchanged between a couple westerners. They went their seperate ways for a few minutes before getting reacquainted, this time with fists flying. After a pile of mixed gender humanity collapsed to the floor, Dundee and Ubercon thought it might be the Christian thing to do if we pulled a few innocent girls from the scrum. I grabbed a slender brown arm sticking out of the mess and started pulling until she was on her feet. As soon as she was freed from the flying limbs she dived back in for more. Sorry honey, I forgot about that Khmer penchant for pugalism. Security arrived and a follicly challenged gentleman was escorted off the premises.
Maybe he should pal up with FatCat, sounds like he's been on a tear lately too....

Dat pony petrol will be a little bit dearer - I see that CalTex is up to 4900R per Litre today. Significant increases so far this year. Maybe the Khmer that told me his honorable HS wanted it up to 8000 in a year was not pulling my pud after all!

Hmmm, doesn't sound like the Bunny Bar I know... not an open bar, fully air-conned since day one.
