Well after 2 years and about 2 weeks after I quit working at the Mag Bar I will be at the door again.
I spoke with Mario a month or two ago and told him that if he wanted a day off that I would work for him on a Saturday night some time. Well not tonight but next week I will be watching the door at the Mag Bar again. I realize it’s not a big deal but in a lot of ways I’ve missed working there and I think I’m going to enjoy it.
It’s been so long and there are so many people that come on weekends that I don’t know. I’ll be pretty busy. I hope everyone brings their ID’s.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

In today's link of the day in the video section are a couple of videos of Triumph the Insult Dog. The one on the top of the page is the one where he went to the premier of Star Wars: Episode II which is friggin' hilarious but farther down on the page is a clip of when Triumph went to a Bon Jovi show in New Jersey. I think that it is as funny if not superior to the Star Wars clip. The problem is that its 16MB and unless you have a faster connection you'll have a long wait.
There was this guy who was in the bar last night who always gets on my nerves. Here is one of my stories about him to try to paint a picture on the situation.
Sammy and I were sitting at a booth and he came up with this overfriendly greeting wanting to shake everybody's hand when we were in the middle of a conversation. I responded with a monotone, "Hey." Sammy was a little more polite and shook his hand.
This guy says to Sammy, "Gary isn't very emotional."
Sammy's reply was, "No. He just doesn't like you."
I agreed.
At first the guy thought that we were kidding and he asked me if it was true. I told him that it was true that I didn't like him. I then felt the need to soften the blow for some reason and told him essentially the truth. I said, "You seem like a nice guy but your personality just grates on my nerves. I can't help it."
After a moment, he extended his hand and said, "That's cool."
As I was shaking his hand I couldn't help but roll my eyes and say, "That's part of the problem."
I really can't put an exact finger on what bothers me about him. Part of it has to be his laugh but I can get past that. There was this guy Pascal who used to come to the bar with the worst laugh you ever heard and he laughed a lot but his personality got us past it.
If I was forced to say what it is that gets on my nerves... If I had to give some reason I would say that he seems like a kiss ass. Like an Eddie Haskle kind of guy. That's not really accurate but its as close as I can get at 4AM.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

I'm not feeling too well at the moment.
You ever have one of those days where you just feel off. Not sick, not tired. You just know that something isn't right.
That's how I feel at the moment. Either that or I have to poo.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

What’s new in the world this week?
Eminem denied that Osama bin Laden wants him dead for making fun of him in one of his videos. I guess Eminem isn't worried about it because he used to the Insane Clown Posse and their legions of Juggalos, who have wanted to kill him for years. I don't know if I want to see Eminem dead or not, but I do know I wouldn't miss him or his music if he did pass on. Maybe I should include him on my next dead pool.
Scooby Doo Tops Weekend Box Office With $56.4 Million Debut and God announces the seventh seal will soon be broken.
I don't understand why anyone would want to see the movie. It looks like total shit. I guess the real target for this movie are the people who grew up watching the TV show AND have kids. They're repackaging the parents childhood memories for the kids. But they make it familar enough to try to get the parents interested.
It looks like it worked.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.

I was at the bar yesterday afternoon and I was talking too this girl who I will call “Cindy”.
She told me that she broke her toy and that she was upset about it. She seemed to be implying it was a sex toy. Then she said she broke her pen.
“Your pen? You mean a pen that you write with?”
She then told me a little story to explain. I’ll try to tell it the way she told me.
This is from Cindy’s point of few…
“I used to work at this bookstore that was right next to this coffee shop. I got fired from the bookstore but I got hired at the coffee shop because my best friend was the manager and she hired me at the coffee shop.”
“I went in to the bookstore and they had this toy section and they had just put out these pens call Whirly Writers. They were marked at $1.99. I picked up one of the pens and put a battery in and it started vibrate.”
“The point of the Whirly Writers was that when you tried to write with them the vibrations made everything you wrote, swirly because of the way the pen moved.”
“So I took a pen up to the counter and asked them to scan it to make sure the pen was actually $1.99. I went and grabbed the box of 12 and got them all. My friend at the counter asked if I knew a bunch of kids that I was going to give the pens out to and I said Hell No! They’re for me and a few of my selective friends and if you’re nice you can have one.”
“She asked why she would want one. So I went over to the grocery store and got a bunch of batteries. I put the batteries in, turned on the pen and stuck it in her armpit and she said, ‘Hmmmmmm.’”
“I told her that $1.99 was the cheapest you’d ever find a vibrator. I had this blue one for a while but then it got real slow for a week and then just stopped. Then I used this purple one that lasted a real long time and it was my favorite. But it broke too. So I had to use the green one and it lasted about six months.”
“Now I have to spend $70 on … “ ( I couldn't hear the rest)
After I got permission to write the story for my post the subject changed to something less memorable.
Good Night, Good Morning, whatever.
