I really like her...., she is smart and pretty and 21....

anyway , we were debating the use of the word , nigger....

now nigger has never beem allowed in jim s bar and I have often called folks out for using the word..., but no one was there but employees, and we were talking about the use of the word....

I accepted. and relished ky ban.....

Well, you've obviously found another source of 'spiritus fermenti' if you were already this wasted by 7:00 PM Delmarva time.

Geesus Wes, if you're getting so wasted that you managed to get yourself 86'd at some redneck dive, you really ought to take a serious look at your drinking habits...

(I can't imagine that you're much fun to be around for your wife and daughter either...)
I told em that I d take the thorty days.....
You might want to give serious consideration to laying off the sauce for thorty days period.... :?

I like John Prine for this sort of thing:

This thread reminds me of another Prine song:

A few moments with the simple musings of John Prine -- philosopher-at-large.

I'm going to miss him when he's gone.

Here's one of my many favorites from Prine. It has pulled me through many of life's odd moments.

No wes, no bar ever bans a person for drinking too much...

They ban them for what drinking too much leads them to do, which is exactly what appears to have happened in your case...

John Prine is usually the right answer to most questions, but Jerry Jeff may be righter answer here:

no, it was an intellectual debate, where I pressed my point a bit too far...., I did this because I was a bit tipsy, perhaps, but you underestimate the quality of debate at the local watering holes...., we do think deeper than our blanks...., occasionally......

I will not apologize for my ideas and words, but I will, eventually, apologize for my pressing of an issue, after I had well made my point...., I ain t mad.

I made my bed and my barring was my fault..., but there was a point I was making.....

....you are right tho...., my intoxication made me ruin my own point.....

oh well, I blanked up, just a bit, while making my point.

mea culpa.

I'm just glad your post inspired the posting of three songs by John Prine and one by Jerry Jeff. ;)

As pickled and pixillated as you are how do you know that you understand yourself?

I hold you in no particular esteem but I would wish you a future where you stop drinking and maybe half make sense.

Put that self-inflicted lobotomy kit away before you hurt yourself, permanently.

In other words, you got drunk and acted like an obnoxious asshole...

well, jim, I only read your post, after my last, so I can only comment on your observation.

yes, you are correct, I was banned for being an obnoxious asshole.

but...., I m their asshole, and it wasn t with bad blood that my banning was enforced, and observed.

I was drinking too much anyway......

sometimes you gotta stick it too the man, and the man has to respond.

all is well.

funny thing is is that I ve struck up an unlikely friendship with the owner s grand daughter, the new barkeep.....

a 21 yr old social justice warrior feminist...., and we just hit it off.

nothing, sexual, I m too old, but a genuine friendship is blossoming....

she was begging me to shut up at the end, and was really nice to me as I was barred.....

pretty cool....,

we talked about Churchill, a bit, and I agreed that he was an asshole, he did save the world.....

she likes to read and has been promised the first book..., "the Gathering Storm"

so I ll go back and apologize to mary, her grandma, but I ll serve my thirty days, so I don t have to be lectured by my old friend jim....,

that is the long and short of it.

fuckin' rube....

I thought, before I ever commented here, that rube would be my nemesis.....

turnd out that the minty old hippie fuck is one of the most honest here..., he might be wrong about everything, but he is not dishonest.

he was right about jim.

his hatred makes him intellectually dishonest,

his hatred makes him stupid.

he is false.

fucking rube......

rock on you stupid old fuck, I love you man......
