Turned away FAKE New Jersey drivers license.
12:45 am- Three men tried to push their way in the front door. Andrew respectfully asked them to stay outside. They were obviously over the legal limit. They became vulgar and forceful. They had been starting problems outside before they tried to get in. When they got physical, Dave asked Blair to call the cops. The police came quickly and the three men ran away on foot. They did knock over Andrew's and Dave's scooters out front. No charges were filed. The only things hurt were Andrew's scooter and his pride.

Blonde girl came in and paid cover for three. She gave me a ten, but I thought she gave me a twenty. After I handed her $12 back, an individual in line said she gave me a ten.
After 5 minutes, she came back to the door and decided they were leaving, and they wanted their money back. I told her she made two dollars when she arrived. After I explained what happened, she didn't put up much of a fight.
After debating it for a minute, she handed me $4.00 back. So, if she comes back, we owe her $2.00.

This entry is actually a Sandbar riddle. Or a math problem. Cover on Saturday night is $2.00 per person. See if you can figure this one out, because it just makes my brain hurt.
I went to The Sandbar after work on Monday to see Dave and check out the new Buzztime Trivia. Oh, and to maybe have a drink, too.
One of the band guys, Nick, was working the 5-9 shift. The bar was deserted.
"Wow, it's not very busy in here!"
"No, it's been pretty quiet. How are you doing?"
"Great, thanks. How are you?"
"Good. Can I get you something to drink" he said as he put one of the Sandbar coasters on the bar, just like he's supposed to do. Those band guys pay attention and follow directions.
"Yeah, I know it's cold outside, but I really want a Pina Colada. But can you put it in the small rocks glass instead of the big glass, I don't want to freeze to death."
"Sure. Can I see some ID?"
The conversation stopped and I just kind of looked at him.
"Ummm…I'm Dave's wife?" which was code for "I'm 33 years old!" and also "I know I've met you before and we just had this conversation like people who know each other!"
At that point, Dave walked in and laughed. "You've met my wife before haven't you?!?"
It's good to know that the staff is doing what they're supposed to be doing and carding people. Like I said, those band guys do what they're told. And it's been awhile since I've been carded so I took it as a compliment.
The bar was advantageous enough to have a gentleman who shared with us
his views on the differing costumes for the men's olympic free skate.
Unfortunately the rest of the bar patrons did not share the same
opinion.
1:35 am- As I write this, people are still in the bar. I'm sure something will still happen before the night ends. I'm never surprised. On a side note I don't have any stupid pictures to draw like Joe. Try back next week.

(On the preceding page of the door notebook, Joe had drawn a pretty picture of a shark attack drink. Perhaps the writer of this entry was jealous of his artistic capabilities.)
