Oh, Cruel World!

Dear Fellsway Sunoco gas station owner

Thanks so much for taking advantage of all the poor bastard commuters like myself in Thursday's nightmare traffic debacle by telling your employee to shut off all the gas in your pumps except the Ultra most expensive shit. Do you really expect me to believe that you suddenly ran out of the four other grades of fuel you sell? It wasn't enough that it was Armageddon on the roadways and the worst commute since the blizzard of 1978. You saw this as an opportunity to get rid of all the old shit-gas that has been hanging around in your tanks for the last 3 years. I say this because within a minute of me driving with my fresh fill of pure petrol swill you peddled, my car's engine warning light illuminated and has been on since. I do not blame the poor attendant that was probably stuck there. I imagine you told him that if he left or refused to comply with your wishes you would sack his ass just to keep up with the holiday spirit. Words do not describe how badly you suck, sitting at home swilling rotgut bourbon thinking about what a savvy businessman you are. I hope you spin out off the road someday into a ditch and freeze to death sitting in you own blood and vomit.

Day #1 at Tales...

By pinklady on Fri, Jul 18, 2008 7:15 pm

Began late with a perfect Pimm's Cup and breakfast at the Napoleon House. YUMMMM...If you've never had a Pimm's Cup do yourself a favor and check this cocktail out, especially if you happen to be in the quarter, near the Napoleon House. We also sampled a Roast Beef Po' Boy, since evidently the deep fried version we had the evening before just wasn't enough for us, and a Muffaletta, which comes portioned as a whole, half, and quarter sandwich. We ordered the quarter size, and it was still as big as my head.

 


Tales Pre-party

Before dinner MiMi, Em, and I (Pink Lady) head down to the Carousel Bar for Vieux Carres and to meet up with Hanky Panky and Barbara West. The Carousel Bar spins in the center of the room, so to chat with these seated gals, we have to march slowly around the room with them. We're doing the "Carousel Crawl." It looks impossibly silly.
