This coming Monday the 13th is apparently Columbus Day, a holiday.   As many of you already know, this means that the bar might possibly be sieged by the weekend freaks.   And when I say freaks, I mean weird, cheap, annoying, stupid.   While I try to keep an open mind about strangers entering our saloon, I know that the plain & simple truth is that I am an intolerant witch.   And so I am emailing various people that I know 1) drink alcohol, & 2) that I like --- to ask you to please come out to the bar this Sunday night to protect me.

In the past this has been called Operation Human Shield.   But since recently (I'm seeing a therapist) I've found myself able to acknowledge the fact that the weekend tourists are actually of the same species as us... I am changing this event to Operation Cool Human Shield.   OCHS.

Please come participate in OCHS if you're not busy that evening.   I've got practice with Tom Coleman (of Pimpbot) for a gig we've got next month at 7pm, so you can come early to listen to us struggle (but be warned that you might feel like drinking heavily at this time), or you can wait until after 8pm when the karaoke starts.

Thank you.
