My wife and sister-in-law and I stopped into this weird mexican restraunt here in Lubbock that served ice cold beer and mixed drinks. Any ways I wanted to sample their mai-tai, when I turned to the drinks section... BLACKED OUT. "Huh?". The bar is now closed, forever. I talked to the owner and he told me that his place got broken into and all the liquor was stolen. TABC (Tx alcoholic beverage commision) fined him and shit so he said "forget it". I've delt with TABC when I worked with Miller beer. They (and miller beer)are a bunch of a-holes. So it doesn't surprise me.

And the stinger on this story: I asked him if that since they didn't have a liqour license anymore and didn't plan on getting one again, could I have their tiki mugs. Those bastards stole them as well!!! WTF!?

So I'm going to start hitting thrift stores up by the score and look for these mugs to trickle in.
