JaJ, your usual host will not be here for a quite a bit of today.
Your alternate hosts, Gabz and possibly kcpopps, will fill your libation orders and dispense the normal bartenderish advice.
Glad to see the lounge is open early. Make mine a mocha cappuccino with a shot of brandy.

Here are a couple of jokes for all.
------------------------------
The Parking Ticket
I went to the store the other day, I was only in there for about 5 minutes and when I came out there was a damn motorcycle cop writing a parking ticket.
So I went up to him and said, "Come on buddy, how about giving a guy a break?"
He ignored me and continued writing the ticket.
So I called him a "pencil necked nazi."
He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having bald tires!!
So I called him "horse shit".
He finished the second ticket and put it on the car with the first. Then he started writing a third ticket!!
This went on for about 20 minutes, the more I abused him, the more tickets he wrote.
I didn't give a damn.
My car was parked around the corner...
