 If i stay cool and stay outta' fights
 I can dance with my baby right in time

"I been drinkin' and smokin' cigarettes 
 I been lookin' for a woman I have not met
 I have not found her yet
 Til' I do it's a sure fire bet
 I'll be drinkin' and smokin cigarettes"

Throw One Back!!

Throwback Thursday?

Summer is right around the corner.  Enjoy the weather - and don't forget your jacket!

Lay back and think of England.

 Give me a Gin ’n' Tonic
 Gin ’n’ Tonic

 I need it now!

No thanks.

"It's hard to believe I've gone and done it again
 Went to a place to see all of my friends
 One little sip and now look at me
 If this bar were school I'd have a degree!"

"Baby Boom or 'X', I don't know what I am
 All I need to know, is when it's time to slam.
 I threw a little party cuz it just felt right

You heard it here first:  Indoor Beer Garden.

Lake's Lynx

From the desk of Linkey Correspondent Heather Lake:

Good news?

Bad News!

Nope.  (though that is kind of retro-original)

Yep.

"Listen close and you can hear,
 That loud jukebox playin' in my ear.
 Ain't no woman gonna change the way I think.
 Think 'll just stay here and drink."

"Tee Martoonis at bunch with the loss,
  I didn't even ask or care what they cost,

That's Insane!

When casual fishing goes bad.

The Finger Pillory?  Sounds painful.

Was your Easter as boring as this one?

"I stubbed my toe on the kitchen sink.
 I was just gonna go get me somethin' to drink.
 My cigarette flew and it couldn't be found
 Lucky I didn't burn your whole house down."

 Hitting me with a trunk of a big ol' live oak tree
 He hurt me this morning with the bright sun light
 I'm gonna sue Jack Daniels for what he did to my face last night!"

Greetings From Publandia

It takes a village...to save a pub. Literally.

And for all of you compositors or graphic artists:

 With a trunk of a big ol' live oak tree
 He hurt me this morning with the bright sun light

 I'm gonna sue Jack Daniels for what

We're Not Very Smart...

...but we're good with our hands.  And other body parts.  Also not good at spelling.

“We’re in an open relationship so it’s always fun to meet new people. Do you live in the city?”

Good (gay) bar news!

Open Up Your Golden Gate

The only story you'll need to read this month.  TNSC has visited, or continually frequents, 25 of the 48 establishments listed in this highly comprehensive SF Chronicle exposé.

"Jack was nodding out and wishing he was in a bar
 Charlie Parker on the bandstand and not a worry in the world
 And a glass of beer in one hand and his arms around a girl
 Neal was singing to the nurse Underneath the Harlem Moon
 And somehow you could just tell we'd be in California soon

 Open up your golden gates
 California here I come
 I said California here I come
 Look out California here I come!"

Sign Me Up!

For your next South-of-the-Border vacation, my I suggest the most direct route between Puke-Town and Vomitville?  "Especial" indeed!

And a nice write up on one of our TNSC favorites - The Royal Cuckoo.

"Loco Gringos like a party
 And they like their women firm
 When they drink Tequila
 They fight for the worm!"

Shot of Luv

Heavy lies the hand that holds the pint.

Retro in a good way.

And though we've visited this before, it bears repeating:

Retro in a BAD way.

 My left hand holds a half a fifth of Gin
 My right arm reaches out for her love only
 But my left still embraces a life of sin."
