Come As You Are - Dashing Hopes

Dear Lost Souls,

I don't know about You People, but that was the longest fucking “short” week of my life. I need a drink like . . . (insert colorful simile of your choice).

Yes, my thirsty Comrades, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday night. The Mardi Gras party looms on the horizon (March 8th; mark your calendar!!) and there is precious little time left to train. As always, we will be proffering the cutting edge in liquid alchemy and social mixology.

Please bring a waiver signed by your parent or legal guardian. Expectations are discouraged and may be dashed at the door. Cocktails and random munchies will be served beginning at 7:30pm, Friday evening.

Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your chosen venue for the evening . . . or to linger indefinitely.

Yours,

Greg

Come As You Are - St. Valentine's Day

Dear Lost Souls,

Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening, the feast of Saint Valentine. Cocktails will be served at 7:30pm . . . Perhaps something towards the rouge. Please bring your Sweetie along. . . or else we can prepare one for you when you arrive. As always, feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your chosen venue or to linger indefinitely. The Last Resort is always honored by your presence.

Yours,

Greg

Come As You Are - Debate Rages!!!

Dear Lost Souls,

Just a reminder that there is no Cocktail Hour tonight . . . so don't be hangin' out on my steps buggin' the neighbors. Jeeze! you people! Cocktail hour will resume next week at our usual time and place.

New Mardi Gras Date!!!! Following an emergency session of the Haberdashery Board, the date for the Mardi Gras party has been moved from the weekend before Fat Tuesday to the weekend after. The Party will now be on Saturday, March 8th. Debate raged as board members sniped at the change of agenda. In a heated exchange board members sounded off on the proposal:

Rep. Rhyne (D), of Kensington, commented, “whatever”

Rep. Dolge ( I ), of Oakland, retorted, “I don't really care”

Spectators were stunned by the dialogue. The potential for representation by foreign delegates finally pushed the decision over the razor's edge. So get out your erasers and change that date. We'll see you March 8th!

Yours,

Greg
