tsar4 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Around 2004/2005, there was a thread that Grande Dame Romana & I populated consistently with the occasional other Babbler's poking their heads & thoughts in. I think she worked the bar & I ran the dj booth (usually the song would be in line with something that was currently being discussed), but there was also a few barflies. In the thread, you could be yourself or a persona of your mind's creation. Flirt, play pinball, darts or pool, drink, watch a cult classic on the TV in the corner, be merry and try not to ruin anybody else's day. So belly up, order a drink and pontificate about whatever is on your mind. (As this goes along, if it flies at all, we may need to refine things.) And with that - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwSTe9uit48 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsar4 Posted March 21, 2023 Author Share Posted March 21, 2023 I've left a message for Romana (& others). Not sure if any of the former asmb'ers in the LastFm group are still on that site, but maybe I'll try that next. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobdog Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 *Scoobdog walks in. He notices that all the bottles on the dusty shelves in the back bar have different shapes but have the same faint golden color to them. The place smells like herbs. He also notices all of the taps have no heads on them. Interesting.* So, whadaya have on tap? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
