Way back in 1894, a little girl named Madeline Crothe was skipping through the woods when a mysterious man in black snatched her. He brought her to his house, tourtered her, and starved her to death. Send this to 6 videos in the next 30 min. and you will be safe, but if you don’t… at approximately 1: 34 tonight you will wake up to see an aneorexic child holding a bloodied up knife and she will kill you

Well Winston Churchill once said that a country cannot get out of a recession by spending its way out. Those of you who think Obama is revolutionary should take off your rose colored glasses. Just because he can speak a full sentence doesn’t mean its all good.

Unless you can do twirling magic tricks with the bottles to induce vomiting so that a patron will come back later that night to drink more, you’re not qualified to be a top notch bartender.

Is it me or does any anyone else see the massive irony in this story. They have to cut down on going out but they feel the job market to be in is one where people spend their extra money to go out?

You cant learn to tend bar from a school. You have to get thrown behind a bar and get your feet wet. I have never went to bartending school and I would bet money I can out bartend anyone with my 6 years behind a bar.

Well it seerms that You tube like everything else on the web has sold out. I typed in “The Firm, Closer” wich is a song by a great 80’s rock band, and this is the #1 listing they gave. Anyone one who would even look for this video needs therapy. Let alone the dorks who think this has anything to do with Jimmy Page. Loser S!

The “Clubs” and dance places have really shrunk the old “dive bar” scene almost into obscurity…
I long for the old “had a bad day, and want to go drink a couple of cheap beers” type bar…
Bartenders really are low grade psychologists, with an alcoholic twist…! :)

Someone who has to stop eating at Outback is complaining because they’ve always lived a luxurious life. I wonder what to think about someone who has to park their car more often to reduce the gasoline bill, or sell the darn thing to pay some other bills. These ppl should B thankful at least they still have life. Yeah things are not rosey but where there’s life there’s plenty of hope. You’re absolutely right.
