  Let me say this about that. A year or so ago, I wrote a series of blogs extolling the virtues of one of my favorite subjects - ‘Sleazy Bars’.  Hanging out in a sleazy bar is like hands-on research for all the evils you hear about when you go to church.  In fact, it is rumored that Moses did not […]

Let me say this about that. In 1992, a new movie was released called “White Guys Can’t Jump”.  It was a movie about two pick-up basketball players – one white and the other black – and had, as an underlying theme, an ascertion that white guys can’t slam-dunk a basketball.  Stars Woody Harrelson and Wesley Snipes did […]

Let me say this about that. What is it about getting drunk that makes a guy fearless?  You can take a normal, rational human being, administer a six-pack of Budweiser, and all of a sudden you’ve got Attila-the-Hun wanting to kick your ass.  It’s like some magic formula that turns Dr. Jekyll into Mr. Hyde. […]

(Please enjoy this Classic LMSTAT while Shambo enjoys the Holidays!) Let me say this about that. Ok, I’ll admit it.  I’m a drinking man.  In my little village, cocktail hour is that sacred time of day when you can kick-back, shoot the breeze with neighbors, and have an adult beverage of your choice.  My drink of choice is what I […]

Let me say this about that. Last week, I wrote a blog about fine wines that cost under $20.  I included the  ‘under $20′ metric because the wine industry is rife with product intended to create the illusion of quality through inflated price.  In truth, it is rare that a wine costing $20 has a […]

Let me say this about that. Well, dear LMSTAT readers, this marks the end of the week-long miniseries on The World’s Sleaziest Bars.  The four that have been featured so far are truly world class…you have the word of a recognized sleazy bar aficionado.  Unfortunately, unless I start another blog on this subject alone, I must […]

Let me say this about that. Part of what makes a great sleazy bar is the cross-cultural, mixed bag, mongrel ethnicity of it’s patrons.  It is, at the same time, the best and worst examples of the human species.  If it is true that the patrons of “Genevieve’s Bar” in Singapore were made in God’s own […]

Let me say this about that. Someone once said that: “Old bars never die, they just smell that way.”  But, lets be honest.  Which would you prefer …….. the dank, musty smell of an old sleazy bar, or of say, a dentist office?  That’s what I thought. There is one sleazy bar, however, that may never […]

Stewart at The End of the World [AUTHOR’S NOTE:  This post is the first of five in this week’s miniseries on the ‘World’s Sleaziest Bars’.] Let me say this about that. I love sleazy bars.  The people you meet in sleazy bars are unemcumbered by any pretension which allows you to immediately find the soul of a place.  There […]

Let me say this about that. Front page news in a Florida Keys newspaper: “The County Commissioners made it official on Tuesday, when they passed a law making it illegal in the Florida Keys to do anything of ‘redeeming value’.  Punishment for this second degree misdemeanor would force the convicted to drink 5 gallons of beer until […]
