We have a guy whom has play piano at the bar every year since I started there. Every year people from the neighborhood sing and drink till they grin green. And every year Jim and I look at each other and declare, "This is our last year." We've said that 14 times. Great man is Jim.
So as I am pouring Guiness (Two pull back and one foward) and gallons of green beer, I will empty the Irish whiskey stock:
Buschmills is Protestant
Jameson in Catholic
Tullamore 12 year is like water it so smooth. My mother-in-law won't carry it because my brother and I drink it all and the customers get none.
The purpose of the post is not a brief history of Obob bartending, that is journey of Homeric porportions. Just a reminder to have fun and remember you are not the only one in the bar.
Note: the gent on the left will be the guy I am calling a cab for at closing time. The guy on the right is the the better part of America Sunday. Lovely sods.

O Bob,
Just stopping by to wish you a Happy St. Paddy's Day.
As you know, I'll be in D.C., with A Gathering of Eagles for much of today. Maybe we'll still have energy enough to celebrate St. Paddy's tonight.
If I mixed the Blue with the green, would I get aqua beer? No, that's what I'll find on the wall of the stalls at closing tonight, my favorite
Ah top o the evenin to ya laddie..have one for me too!
Nanc: You should be having Labatt's GREEN!
Happy St. Paddy's day, Obob! I stayed out of lockup! ;)
A shot of Jameson and a bottle of Guinness for me please. We even had corned beef and cabbage for dinner. Happy St. Patrick's Day!
