A Match Made in Heaven

12/5/2007

The last time I was here, I witnessed a man with a hamburger on his head (mascot style headgear, not a McD's #2) talking to a transvestite.

'Nuff said.

Would they be friends? 

Or Foes?
Let us know what you think?

ps. we know the picture is of mayor mcheese. Sorry we're partial to the #2.

Eating BALLS . . . The Luckiest Day of his Life?!? Sad life.

1/6/2008

luckiest day of my life.

driving through montana, low on gas, 'hey lets pull over here.' we get gas and someone sees an old piece of junk with a sign for home of testie fest, or something like that. so we drive a second away to this little diner gift shop bar shack. very country, very woodsman vibe, lots of local looking folk just sitting around, what else you gonna do in west montana?

so i'm excited to eat balls! and we go in the diner part, only one other guy was willing to try them so i order a small basket of them. they come out quick enough and are served sliced, battered and fried with a side of cocktail sauce. we go outside and sit on the stage, where they have the festival, and put our lips around some deep fried balls. and they're pretty good! mostly taste like fried, but have a meatie taste that was pleasant. the cocktail sauce was a good match too.

They Really Like Him!

"Typical Brandy's scene:

- Older pianist rocking out to a solo with the popped lip.
- tipsy Chelsea aspiring actor nodding head across bar
- Actor boy raises glass and screams
- pianist grunts "Oh Yeah"
- They duet together, and Actor boy kinda ruins it by being wasted, but he doesnt realize it because, he's an actor and dammit, he thinks he stole the show! They like him, They really like him!

This is not a gem. This is purgatory."

Nothing Gets Between Me and my Mussels

"i have been LUSTING and FANTASIZING and PLOTTING and DREAMING and [killing fuzzy kittens/puppies that get in the way of] RAVING about the mussels here since i had them for the first time a couple of weeks ago.

hot. damn. white wine sauce, deep, succulent notes, shallots (i think), slightly toasted bread for dipping.... this dish is just plain sexy. i bit my waitress when she reached in to remove the dish. she understood."

SATs

"The Sil : Other bars :: America : Other countries

If you never took the SATs, all the more reason for you to drop by. The Silhouette (a name which I have never actually called this bar, it IS "The Sil") has something for everyone. Scantily-clad college-age cocktail waitresses deliver 7$ pitchers of PBR and free baskets of freshly-popped popcorn to you"
