"Tito, stop teasing!"
PHAT FAT TUESDAY at Third and Long turned out to be a rousing success! The night started early enough with plenty of Hurricanes beings served to plenty of people getting into the swing of things. One thing that struck me early on was the number of females in attendance. At one point during the early part of the night, the ratio was easily 4-to-1, girls to guys, a nice number indeed (if you were a bloke).
MR.PLUMBER looking very happy....There were the usual cast of characters hanging out early on: THE MAYOR OF MURRAY HILL and his lovely wife; NAPOLEON DYNAMITE, joined later by his squeeze, SMURFETTE, MR. TANQUERAY, MR. LOW-KEY, and MR. PLUMBER, just to name a few. Throughout the course of the evening, other people stopped by to say hi or to have a quick drink or two. They included the crusty OLD FART, the sexy CRIMSON CAMEL-TOE, the ever-comical AMERICAN PSYCHO and the CUSACK BOYS. We even had a rare appearance by the one and only greasy-one himself, MR. BLIND DATE. In-between visits by the regulars, the crowd was definitely into the "spirit of the thing" and having a good time. I enjoyed my share of laughs from the antics of some and the suave moves of others. There were plenty of beads being passed about, but I have to confess, not much flashing from my vantage point at least. And the samples that I did see, I wished I hadn't. Oh well.... A good time was had by all.
Who is this man hiding from?????
Now that FAT TUESDAY is over and done with, we now find ourselves easing into ASH WEDNESDAY and the beginning of the Lenten season. Tradition dictates that the observers of the season give up something during the 40-day period between today and Easter Sunday. Usually people try to give up on simple things such as chocolate, alcohol, smoking, eating meat, etc... That being said, QUESTION OF THE DAY: What are you planning on giving up for Lent? As always, DISCUSS......
I'll be back with a posting update later today. Until then, I bid you adieu....

I was hiding from that damned camera of yours. You kept blasting me with that flash bulb and my milky white skin can't take that sort of abuse.

Call me crazy, but it sounds to me as if you've been having your own Mardi Gras bashes of late, doll baby!
I was afraid that the intense, near nuclear reflection of the flash off my skin might actually cause traffic accidents outside the bar.

Uh, Swan, that picture is hysteical.
Someone must have sprinkled too much P-Funk in your Shirley Temple that night.

Speaking of P-Funk, I gave up an opportunity to see P-Funk at BB Kings to work and war that damn mask. Talk about taking one for the team.... Holla!
Oh and Angel, dahling, the way you sounded on the phone last night; you could have just as easily been on Bourbon Street for all I know....lol
