Speaking of gay bars... I knew Me0w Mix was relocating to somewhere else in NYC, but yesterday a friend asked me if I heard about the new Me0w Mix Cafe. I was like, "Huh?" She goes, "Yeah, it's a new cafe where you can take your cat!" I got hysterical. I'm waiting for a bunch of dykes to figure this out the hard way.

And soon...

I would have chosen "Numbers" had there not been one already called that.

And the other problem is, there are more Seattle restaurants/bakeries than gay bars that have better gay bar names than the gay bars themselves (The Honey Hole, The Funhole, The Dish, The Globe, Hillside Quickies, The Elysian Brewery, Phuket, Bimbo's, The Red Door, The Thai-ger Room, Cupcake Royale, etc.)

So, I'll have to stick with the standby: The Tonsil Jockey.

in the early 80s I lived in the Chelsea section of Manhattan, now a gentrified "gay ghetto" then a working class hispanic neighborhood studded with curious-looking little bars. Their subtle-as-a-ton-of-bricks names like MANEUVERS and PIPELINE always gave me a chuckle.
