INT. 40th FLOOR HOTEL ROOM – NIGHT It's sometime in the middle of the night. We pan across a luxurious hotel room, looking down on an endless array of city lights. Continue panning across a well-appointed bar (not one of those shameful minibars, a real bar) and ending at a king-size

Sharkbait’s Cocktail of the Week, On The Road: The Cats Meow

Sharkbait - March 20, 202626

Happy Friday, and happy first day of Spring! I don't know about all of you but I'm ready for Spring. Basically I can tolerate winter through New Years day, and to a lesser extent the end of January. Once it hits February, get me the warm weather ASAP. I know

May as well add another addiction to the pile. Is "Jones" or "Jones-ing" even used any more as a euphemism? Back in the day you could have knocked me over with a feather when someone explained to me that, "Me and Mrs. Jones" was about a guy and his heroin

OK. The cuts have been made, the biggest free agents have been signed, the majority of blockbuster trades have been made (and rescinded). The next 5 weeks are going to be utterly fucking brutal for the demographic that tends to haunt this site, i.e. smart enough to realize mock drafts, pro

I'm not talking about the song, I'm talking about getting absolutely snowed under. The snow was up to my waist, bears and deer were huddled together, racists forgot about their cock-eyed leanings, snowmobiles ruled the back country, bread sold for pretty much the same price, (because in a small town,
