Good times at Muskie's

It was a packed house Friday night at Muskie's Grill in Fulton, and everybody seemed to be having a great time. It was very cool to see friends and neighbors in the crowd, along with lots of our new friends. The dance floor was hopping all night (including the interesting all-female lap dances), and the beverages seemed to be flowing freely.

Can't wait to do it again. Thanks for rockin' along with the MEB!!

Speaking of beer ...

Why didn't I think of this? A beer search engine. Yeah, baby! Sadly, it's only in NYC at the moment, but I see great things in this site's future.

Hey, where's my key?

My hometown of Bay City, MI, wants to honor Madonna with a key to the city, since she was born there in 1958.

That's nice and all, but when am I gonna get a statue? Where's the Pimp Daddy Monument?!? I get no love.

Truer words have never been spoken

"If you can’t afford to tip, don’t buy a drink," she said to me, and to no one.

Folks, just tip the bartender, OK?!?!?
