M midnite Member 37? 47' N, 122? 26' W Joined: Mar 25, 2002 Posts: 1230	M midnite Posted posted on Wed, Dec 16, 2009 8:01 AM Wednesday (12/16) is International Flight Lounge The prodigal son returns! While I am not the "lost" son, I did just wander around Central Europe rather aimlessly. I am, however, definitely the "last" son. So, that counts. Plus, factoring in my profligate living, it's a lock. Prodigal I am, and team midnite is coming back home to Forbidden Island after too long an absence. That's close enough for a parable. Additionally, I'm thirsty. It's more of a theoretical thirst as we were far from any desert and I drank a lot while abroad. Moreover, I want to go to a place where everyone knows my name. Well, they used to know my name, not sure anymore. Also, I want to go to a bar not packed with humorless Czech bastards. Wait! FI is not full of humorless Czech bastards now is it? Whew, ok, just checking. Further, I'm back on U.S. soil and I want to go to a red-blooded, freedom-loving, kick-ass American tiki bar. I don't want no more of that Commie bullshit! Plus, I miss the Jab. Cold warrior, midnite

CL Coco Loco Member Exotic Isle of Alameda Joined: Mar 21, 2004 Posts: 820	CL Coco Loco Posted posted on Wed, Dec 16, 2009 7:11 PM I'm fairly sure that neither Suzanne nor Paddie are Chez, and I know that they are not humorless, so you're probably good. Great seeing you tonight. Sorry to bow out of FI though...sniff sniff, stupid cold. But I'm sure you're in very capable mixology hands with the crew there tonight. Suzanne and Paddie are creating might fine cocktails!! If I say so myself, they are kickin ass and taking names in the mixology department! Have fun!!
