I have (almost) successfully killed another week. Last night I dropped by the Brooksider and found a big bunch of old men hanging out. Carl, Zim, Chad, Martin, Belanger, Brice, Falstrom, et al; I think we pretty much had representation from all four corners of the city. I guess the occasion revolved around the basketball games, but it was so stinking loud in there you couldn’t hear anything. Eventually this crowd filtered out, and I stuck around a while longer to hang out with a table of 20-somethings. This was every bit as bad an idea as it sounds. I am way too old. Do not look for me down there tonight.
