Manhattan Bar is CLOSED

One of our favorite happy hour venues, the Manhattan Bar, served its last beer, and is now closed due to a lease dispute. Bar owner Manon said she intends to reopen in a different location.

How unfortunate. We had memorable moments at Manhattan, especially during the "ladies drink for free" promotion (it's true!), which ran for a couple of weeks. During this period, we had record-breaking turnouts.

We'll miss you Manon!

Bar joke of the day (13/03/10)

A guy walked into a bar and sat down next to a man with a dog at his feet. "Does your dog bite?" he asked. "No,".
A few minutes later, the dog took a huge hunk out of his leg. "I thought you said your dog didn't bite!" the man said.
"That's not my dog," was the reply...

Bon weekend everyone!

A first grade girl handed in the drawing below for a homework assignment. After it was graded and the child brought it home, she returned to school the next day with the following note...

Dear Ms. Davis ,
I want to be very clear on my child's illustration. It is NOT of me on a dance pole on a stage in a strip joint. I work at Home Depot and had commented to my daughter how much money we made in the recent snowstorm. This drawing is of me selling a shovel.
