I'll be there this time. Broke as hell because some cocksucking piece of shit charged $620 to my debit card at an AT&T Wireless store in Virginia Beach, VA .. but I'll be there.

I have not been to the Monday gathering at the Lab for some time what with schooling and no spare dollars. I totally understand the "stay the course" vibe but the Lab has grown stale for me as well. I wouldn't mind a place with affordable beers and some 'entertainment' like pool or pinball. Not really desirous of blasting music but a jukebox might be nice.
I like the Wilshire as it has these things and has open street parking right outside the venue. There is also a patio where we could sit and see the rigs in summer. the bartender (at least the one that works Mondays right now) is a Volksfreak and he is open to a group of yahoos converging on Mondays.

Downside-No minors and limited food choices though he did say delivery food would be ok. I think Mondays is Chili Dog night...
So there's my two cents.
So it all started when I wanted to get better gas mileage....

Missed you! Hope massage school is going well.

It'd be nice to have a place to park all the vehicles again.

I shall join the dissent. Sick of the Lab. No parking, vibe going downhill, expensive beer. Wilshire sounds good to me.

I so wanted to go but taught my hoop class last night. Big turnout and now that I am strapping my hoops to the top of the bug it takes me longer to pack up. I wasn't done until 8:45pm and wasn't sure you guys would still be there. Do you think we'll shift back to the old stomping grounds?
