I seriously frequent a local bar/restaurant ( can you say Beef O’Brady’s ) where political discussion is forbidden by the owner. Wonderful place to discuss EVERYTHING BUT !
happy hour is when the politicians join Marie Antoinette and Louis XIV by losing their “heads.” that would be a real happy hour. and no alcohol/drugs necessary. just lots of headless monsters.
@Denver Broncos – I;m sure I’ll have to listen to ESPN’s commentators give their 1,001 reasons why the Tigers lost rather than why the Giants won. Just like 2010, no one is paying attention to the Giants.
virginia actually limits happy hour. when some places were doing 3pm to 11pm “hours”, some NOVA dimwit decided Something had to be Done. now a lot of local bars are limited to 2 hours maximum. wierd.
I’ve been thinking about not reading the comments here on gocomics as a calming factor for me during the next couple of weeks. No matter what the comic, someone HAS to start a political “I’m right and you are wrong” string.
@LinuxOs, EXACTLY!!! Use of cell phones in restaurants needs to be banned and done so immediately. I don’t care how important you think you are. Take it outside.
There was an article from a Charlotte, NC news source today about how crazy sports fans can be. This past Sunday our Panthers lost to the Cowboys in Charlotte. A wounded, Marine veteran of Afghanistan and his family had been to the game. They showed up at a local sports bar/restaurant after the game wearing Dallas colors. They were almost immediately accosted by a Panther fan, who may or, may not have been intoxicated, tp the point of having to leave without dinner or enjoyment. This is one of the stupid things done in the name of team loyalty. By the way, the young Marine had had both legs amputated and was in a wheel chair. The “fan” told him not use the wheelchair as a crutch. Sometimes sports should be off limits also.
The only time I even got fooled into a Rassmussen poll was when I was waiting for a call back from a contractor. I use the caller ID to just pick up and either give a terse message or totally ignore it. If I’m eating or otherwise busy I let it go to my FAX, but if they start to use that I will take it offline except when I need the fax.

If you thought the Tigers took a beating, how about the sports books.
