CAYA; Make Friday Great Again!


This week's CAYA occurs at a moment of crisis in our nation. The political and media establishment have THREATENED and divided REAL AMERICANS from our RIGHT to a fun filled weekend! I mean, there's something going on there! I can tell you, the Haberdashery is the ONLY solution to combating this legacy of criminal-level boredom and divisive weekday oppression. We are the ONLY place where you can have fun on a Friday, and the ONLY option for getting THE BEST … REALLY FABULOUS … I mean you are NOT gonna believe how GREAT they are … custom crafted adult beverages. So, to make Friday GREAT again, and protect YOU, we are immediately suspending your right to attend any other social events with your other friends who, if they do not grasp the magnitude of this danger, are not fit to host you!

Yes, my Puffed-Up Proletariats, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening, and you are invited to goose step over to the Haberdashery’s hallowed hall to rally behind this week’s platform of self-referential pomposity. It’s gonna be AMAZING! Cocktails will be served at 7.30pm. Please feel free to slither on by for a quickie en route to your primary convention, or to linger indefinitely.  

Yours,
Los Cabañeros

Come As You Are; The Rollercoaster

Dear Lost Souls,

From the heights of unbridled Love and euphoric joy, to our deepest sadness, anger, and pain, we navigate a path of emotional ups and downs through hair-raising twists and turns, all underscored by ongoing stretches of tortuous anticipation and cathartic resolutions; whether they be triumphant or devastating in their nature. But let us remember that we are not alone, and that our brothers and sisters are sitting beside us, reflexively ready to reach out a steady hand, or offer a shoulder to share; together celebrating or supporting us as the need arises. And in our own sharing and connecting we embrace the delicate dance of our humanity, bound together in our aloneness; to which we can either close our eyes and desperately wait in fear until the journey is done, or open our hearts and minds to the thrill of a lifetime spent in the boundless pursuit of our own unique and authentic spiritual adventure; which is a ride worth taking!

Yes, my Mystical Merrymakers, Cocktail Hour is on for this Friday evening, and you are invited to gently ease yourself into the contoured cushion of the Haberdashery’s low expectations and highball creations. Our clairvoyant Cabana Boys will be on hand to manifest your alchemical whimsies in perfect liquidity … with additional whimsies provided upon request. The weekend begins at the top of the front stoop.

As always, cocktails will be served at 7.30pm. Please feel free to stop by for a quickie en route to your primary evening rendezvous, or to linger indefinitely ...

Yours,
Los Cabañeros

No Cocktail Hour This Week

Dear Lost Souls,

There will be no Cocktail Hour this week. We invite you to share the Haberdashery spirit by taking up the mantle and hosting your own regional and sub-regional CAYA, sharing Haberdite love and kindness with friends, neighbors, and random strangers. We can all use some TLC in these uncertain times!

Yours,
Los Cabañeros
