There are about 500 bars in town, which means that there are about 10 birthdays a week. This past Monday, Kilowatt had it’s 20th birthday, reverting back to 1994 pricing and attitude.
I mean, everyone was super chill, there were a multitude of tasty beers and a steady stream of tunes from the 19nineties. Most beers were $3 and pool was 25¢, meaning that $10 could buy two beers, a congratulatory shot for the bartender, then a game of play with a quarter you found. Also, this totally happened at the table.
So, what do you think about wishing your favorite bar down the street a happy birthday? It’s probably soon.

My sister Elisa Hough built a web-based virtual gamelan ensemble! It’s very simple and incredibly fun to play. Check it out!

Our pals at 7×7 today ranked Robin Williams’ movies, which got me thinking: I should rank Robin Williams’ TV guest appearances. And so:
Am I right or am I right?
