So they sling the drink down the bar and out it goes through the swinging doors…someone will be there to catch it.

Oh, my! Poor little Ms Omar. What if they sling the drink out the swinging doors, and there's no one there to catch it. What's a poor girl from Somalia to do?! lol. :) gw

You're welcome. A 20% gratuity has been included in your bill. But you also may choose 25% or 22%. Now let's see: 25% of nothing is still nothing, I think. Cheers, Gershon

As we learned from Prohibition, doesn't matter if its legal, drinkers gonna drink, drink, drink...

That's right. Ilhan will forbear, but then again, she doesn't drink. ~ Al Capone

Oh, I hope not. There will be more drunks on the street! I recently learned that Nancy Pelosi is a teetotaler. She doesn't drink at all! Well, that puts that rumor to rest.

More drunks on the street -- and the sidewalk too. Minnesota had better not reelect Ilhan then. (Don't get me started on that subject. lol). :) gw
