Just got back form the V-Room right nere in good ol' Long Beachg Californ-Ni-A!!! It was my frined Candace's B-Day. Shes a bartender at teh V-Room. I was sporting a new Haw2aiian shirt tonight and sometihing funny happenned. This old guy like in his late 60's came uyp to me an dsaid, "Hey that's a nice shirt, that real Hawaiian isn't it?". To which I responded, "Yeah it's Kine Hawaiian, a new label I just found out about". Turned out this olad man new all about Kine Hawaiian. I mentioned that normally I wear pureley vintage Iolani as far as my Hawaiian shirts go. He knew all about Iolani. We started tal;iknig about Kennington and a few other labels. man this guy knew his shot. He knew labels I had never headrs of. Funny thin is he was drewssed all ska style imageine an old man in his late 60's dress in slaclks, a white t-shirt and red suspenders.
God I love Long Beach.

Speakin' of Joe Jost, my Mom used to take me there when I was about 5 or maybe even a baby. I havn't been back yet. I remember the big jar of pickled eggs that I'm sure was bigger than me at the time.

Yeah Mean, I used to go there with my dad when I was a kid. Then when I lived over by Redondo & 7th St. in the early '80's I would hit Joe Jost at least once a week. They opened another Joe Jost In downtown LB but it was a slick yuppie place that catered to the business lunch crowd (blasphemy). The Joe Jost special (in case you've forgotten) is a Polish sausage, swiss cheese & dill pickle on rye, a basket of pretzils with a pickled egg and peppers on top and a glass of Pabst Blue Ribbon. Mmmmmm...yum.

Is Joe Jost a 21 and over bar or can kids go in and eat? Back then it was ok.
I think I'll get my Mom a Joe Jost t-shirt for Xmas. She'll love it!
Has anyone ever heard of the Tapit or Tap-It in Long Beach? It's not there any more, but if you've been there maybe you know my Mom. I use to play pool there when I was barely tall enough. Ah, the good ol' days...

My dad used to tale me to a bar when I was about 3 or 4, but then again it was my uncle's bart so everyone there knew me and was cool about it. I don't remember much except playing video games and trying to shoot poole but not really being able to see over the pool table.

Another Tuesday. It's 11:30 on Tuesday and I'm drunk again. Ey last Sunday I caught teh
Body Workd exhibit at teh Museum of Science and Industry. Teh exhibit close don Sunday so it was open 24 hours that day. A couple of waitresses a bartender and a stripper I know from Teh Wild Goose invited me to go out with them after they got off of work and tehy bought me my ticket. We ended up going at 3:00 AM. We were there from 3 to 5 Am and teh place was totally packed. When I thought about the fact that I got together with two waitresses and a stripper from my favorite titi joint and went straight to teh Museum of Science and Industry, I realized what a dork I truly am.

Yup drunk agaiun, what us it Manday?
Well tiki Oasis is coming up again, good times. tiki Oasis and VLV are teh most fun I have each year. Although i really used to love Teasorama. Haven't doen that since the last one that was here in LA though.
Anyewqays, I am much looking forward to and needing this upcoming Tiki Oasis.
Word on teh street is, "A good time will be had by all".
Hey Spike, rmeember when we walked those two english chicks like 3 miles to theor hotle room and they didn't even invite us in once we were there like 3 years agao at a Tiki Oasis. Man that was rough. At least we got to get our grub on at Denny's on teh way back.
