if you hurry, catch up with Carla Berryhill and another of her epic ‘pub crawls’…or just take it a bit slower and catch Nelson (who’s back after a 60 hour bus ride from Puerto Escondido, MX)at Panza Verde tonight…60 hours? i can’t even do the 12 bus from San Salvador to Managua anymore..o that’s right? he’s half my age….duh..
spotted on 6th ave norte, headed for work, the ever delicious Claudia \#1, headed for Da Vinci to open the place…if she looks that great without makeup/clothes, imagine…well, i am..apparently her rental of what was JP’s Rum Bar to Hugo’s Ceviches is still working out and maybe(for my sake)she’s moved into town from Ciudad Vieja..
the old Ixcot space open for potential renters: how ’bout a short term rental thru Semen Satan? right…the old ‘Lounge’ in the back is getting some updates…good things heard about Rafa’s Bistro and if you ever wondered(not me)what a Russian style bbq thing looks like, go upstairs to Lava….stainless steel, 4 or 5 ft long, maybe 8 inches deep and about 6 inches across…Jason/Neil of Micho’s prepping shish-ka-bobs for later..(don’t tell bob)
Lava! fingerbowls? yep….order the buffalo wings and they bring two large bowls, with lemon slices…who knew? in Antigua? next, they’ll be handing out those bibs with lobsters on them..
Lankin/Max? a giant WTF?…two emails, two voice mails and no responses? right…very very weird…almost as weird as the 5am sighting of a shooting outside El Muro in this town…per a witness(married, with children) who happened…happened to be going by at 5am last Friday, a buncha PNC, cartridge casings neatly chalked, blood on the sidewalk…some kinda motorcycle ripoff that went sour..
so…the expedition on Wednesday is down to three passengers…Alabama Bob, bowing to social/cultural factors….mainly Evelyn, his squeeze and the pressures of Valentine’s Day..etc…Hogan was in but has suffered a relapse of some kind(better than a prolapse) so there’s room in the back seat to pick up a hitchhiker or two…
pub crawl? the last one, coming home, some drunk stepped all over my hands…damn..reverse stigmata…hey…Keith Richards for the new Pope? perfect…
‘said ‘goodbye’ to a couple of snowbirds headed home in the morning…headed for 3 feet of snow and a buried pickup….fun…no, tough shit…Valentine’s Day! don’t screw this up, men….if you’re stuck for a last minute idea, consider Sunshine Grill’s Special…pizza for Valentine’s Day? she’ ll go..maybe but you’ll pay…’have a pizza my heart, my dear’…..nope, not even close…it’s roses/chocolate and edible panties..if you’re good , maybe breakfast..
