I was wondering the same thing, McBane. So how's the practice going?

Business is ok, I guess. My accountant keeps telling me I need clients who will pay me money, as opposed to booze. For some reason, defending Ned and BS takes up a lot of my time.
I am encouraged to see you are keeping the tavern on the first page. I was out of town on business yesterday, I did not get a chance to visit.

I can see how defending Ned and BS would take up a lot of your time (no offense guys; this has more to do with some authoritive figures than with yourselves
). And about keeping the public aware of BToN, you can always count on me
. Here's to you, McBane! ** downs his pint of fruit punch **

BTW, was that last weeks batch of punch?? If so, just sit back, relax. I'll go put a documentary on the tele about volcanos. You'll like watching the lava flow.

I am currently trying to countersue for damages incurred with the closing of BToN.
Actually, Ned & BS....I have a confession. I was out of town this week on business, met an old friend for a drink

-And I had 3 O'Douls **lowers head shamefully**
**starts talking fast** I had to. I had a presentation to give at 8:00 am. I was 20 miles from my hotel. They don't have alcoholic beer in Wisconsin. Yea, that's it, they didn't have real beer.....
I feel so dirty....

My God man....what have you done!!!!!
You must be strapped into the Seat of Drunkeness, where you will be forced to drink vast amounts of fruit punch while we inject still more alcohol into your veins.........don't worry, the proceedure is quite safe, I test the chair out at least twice a day.

McB,
Like the Danger Mouse bit. very cool.
Your comment about no alcoholic beer in Wisconsin in weak at best. It's the drinking capital of the U.S. having lived there between the ages of 15 and 22. If I continue to enjoy alcohol for the rest of my life, I'll never match the amount of sick drunkeness I experienced in that state over a seven year period.
The following is from the eyes of a minor in wisconsin:
If you can see over the bar, you'll get served.
If you walk into a bar with a note from parents saying it's ok, you'll get served.
If you walk into a bar and your parents are in the same county, you'll get served.
**end**
I never realized that Aurora meant Aurora, Ill. When I lived in Wisconsin, most natives referred to you people as F.I.B.'s. You must be familiar with the term and I bring it up meaning no offense, however, you put me on the defensive when I hear Wisconsin being bad mouthed.
The o'douls thing can be forgiven. If your presentation had anything to do with saving mine and BS's asses though, you had best be drunk and disorderly in your preparation. No wait, maybe that's bad. I don't know.. post too long.

Oh, don't get me wrong, I was not bad mouthing Wisconsin. I actually had a Harp for my first drink, then a Coke, then the O'Douls. I was just being sarcastic, as Wisconsin is home to Miller, Pabst, Leinenkugals, Point, Stohs,Old Style, and of course, Milwaukee's Best.....
I had to journey near Green Bay. I did chuckle as I was watching the news, and the backdrop behind the anchors was the entrance to Lambeau Field.
Ohh, and I had some fresh cheese curds....MMMMM nice and squeeky..
Nippy resized the Danger Mouse pic. That show still makes me laugh!

Were they broadcasting from the entrance of the field (don't laugh, it's been done) or was it just a photo used as a backdrop. Either way, what else would they use up there. Are you a football fan at all. If so, Lambeau field is a wonderful place to watch a football game. Don't get me wrong, so is soldier field. I'm just guessing you've been there before. Did you make that haul up to Green Bay way on a weeknight and drive back to Aurora. Must be some friend. Is she pretty?

Hmm.. the news was in studio. I have not had the pleasure of visited the house of Lombardi. I have heard it is a great place to see a game. Soldier Field sucks. The end zone (esp the south) is sloped very low, so the upper section is a mile away from the field. (I am actually a Steelers fan, and the old 3 Rivers was a great place too)
As for the trip, nothing that special. (and I'm sure my pregnant wife would disapprove of a 500 mile (round) trip to visit a girl) My company has a regiional home office up there, and I had to give a presentation to one of the departments. I went up Monday afternoon and drove home Tuesday. Long 24-30 hours to say the least. I have a friend in Oshkosh, so I dropped by.

Good to be back--pour me a fruit punch.
Still recovering from the Whitney Biennial party I went to last night.... Best buffet ever there.
Hey! It's my 400th post!
