Joe, clearly you don’t have to answer me, but seriously, please tell my why you said those awful, homophobic things a while back? If they were “jokes” you should just apologize.
That was from the heart btw.

“Of the demonstrably wise there are but two: those who commit suicide, & those who keep their reasoning faculties atrophied with drink.”

-Mark Twain
“Whenever I enjoy anything in art it means that it is mighty poor. The private knowledge of this fact has saved me from going to pieces with enthusiasm in front of many and many a chromo.”
– Mark Twain “At the Shrine of St. Wagner”

Thanks Kens. Yeah, the place looks really nice.
Snark, didn’t make it inside but looked at the menu and the place. Looks great. Good wine selection. Apperizers looked like a good mix. Place was surprisingly busy but not packed. I found it to be really cozy. I was way too hungry and wanted real dinner so figured I’ll check it out another time.
LOL
