Second Wednesday update: Corner Bar 5:30 anyone?, Doritos, and Singapore Fried Rice

One of the Sunday brunch crew e-mailed me, and it looks like we’re going to meet up at the Peabody/Capriccio Corner Bar around 5:30 for their drinks and appetizer buffet, then head to Court Square after that for “Bands, Beer and Bums.” If anyone wants to join us feel free.

Although, keep in mind the Saucer has good glasses – the really nice Stella Artois ones – tonight for glass night at 7. If you collect beer glassware, might want to skip Court Square tonight and hit the Saucer. Court Square will have a scaled-down version of its entertainment tomorrow night, so you can go then – no bands or beer, just “Bums” as the theme. “Bums” will also be the theme Friday night, all day Saturday, all day Sunday, and pretty much the rest of 2007.

I’ve already got a full set of glasses though, so I’ll be at the Corner Bar. If anyone who works there reads my blog: Better stock up on Bud Light bottles this afternoon.

In order to tide myself over until 5:30, I stopped by Jack’s Food Store and got a bag of these:


You know who ought to team up? Frito-Lay and NORML, the organization that works to try and legalize marijuana. Seems like a lot more Doritos would get sold if people could buy pot legally.

Think I may eat at China restaurant, on Jefferson between Second and Third, for lunch tomorrow. I noticed a sign on their door that they have daily chef’s specials for $5.99, and tomorrow’s special looks good – Singapore Fried Rice, which appears to be combination fried rice fried in spicy curry sauce. Yum! I think it comes with an egg roll and maybe soup – although, I’m not sure, because as I was reading the menu a woman walked out and said “Ex…CUSE me.” in a tone of voice that implied, “How DARE you be in my way.”

These Doritos are pretty good, especially when you eat one hot wing chip and one blue cheese chip together.

The Fire Sale at the Downtown Saucer is Left Hand Sawtooth Ale.

Back to work.
