Hm, I have never heard that before. The deli that I work at currently just got approved for their liquor license, so we will be selling bottled beer by the pack or for eat in only. Hm, dunno!

I made out pretty good tonight at my bar. $74 in tips for 4 hours of work. Well, 3 1/2 hours of work. Not too shabby! Plus, my $6 an hour. $6 an hour is good for a bartender to make hourly...the usual is $2.83 an hour for servers/bartenders. Which, if you bartended, you would know. But just for everyone else to acknowledge...TIP YOUR SERVERS AND BARTENDERS WELL IN THE STATES! We work for our tips, not for our paychecks! I hope the next 2 days I am bartending are the same as today was. So, I just hope my hotel guests that came in today will be here for the rest of the week!

 

Alas, it's the Mormon scourge in Utah.

You're going to report and gladly pay taxes on all those tips, correct?

 

Bwahahaha, what do u think?

 

Theres going to be a big AMG weekend on Oct. 8th in Montvale NJ at MBUSA headquarters. We will be caravanning from the DC area if you want to meet up with us on the way up let me know.

 

Oh really?! I'd love to attend it, but I no longer own the Mercedes. I have a Mazda now.

 

Oh, by the way Lugnut, here's a pic of my bar.

 

Cool. I need one just like that in my basement.

 

i'm thirsty.

but my black label is not among those spirits.

oh well, i'll take double jack daniel's whiskey.

 

Yeah, it's a real small quaint bar. I like it though. It's relaxing, and I meet tons of people from all over the world. You can't see it, but the bar itself is curved maple with a black marble top. The bar top is like the marble that's where the glasses and cone cups are sitting. Yeah, sorry sleepwalker! No black label. Only red.

 

Cozy. I like that. That's what a bar should be, not a loud circus with barkeeps juggling three or more bottles at a time and everyone yelling at each other trying to be heard above the din.

... and don't encourage sleepwalker by getting Black Label. I've been trying to get him to switch to a single malt. He should try one you mentioned earlier. The Glenlivet.
