My second day off in a row, its looking great to me. I'm basically resting up for happy hour at this point.
Plus, spent yesterday watching two Scorsese documetaries in a row, ("No Direction Home", and "The Last Waltz")...needless to say, I was in my glory, and seriously contemplating just quiting my job and watching cable all day.

I had seen "The Last Waltz" in the movies, many moons ago. Needless to say, they're both right up my alley, as far as the genre of music is concerned.

Before the time you mentioned something about your chest hair, or your pecs, or something along those lines. I forget what it was because several of us dipped into savings to pay for memory suppression therapy after that.

I dont see anything on Bubba's FB page about opening. Their last update was that they just got the tables in. I think the bar is complete too. October 2012?

Yeah, I just saw that too (and fixed my Facebook). I'm definitely excited for an opening. At least it seems as though things are moving in the right direction.
