So without any prior announcement, I decided to crash the grand re-opening of Drinking Liberally in Milwaukee last night. It was at Sugar Maple in Bay View. It's a smoke free bar (no cigars for me last night), and everyone was very excited about the idea... and yet ironically... a rather large group of DL attendees kept sneaking outside for a smoke throughout the night. But anyway, they have a large collection of craft brews, but are a cash only bar. Good thing I stopped at the ATM before I came out, or I would've been SOL.
Anyway, it was nice to meet some of the liberal bloggers who I read, and put a face to a name, as well as see some bloggers that I know and haven't seen in a while. It's also important to remind myself that in person, people are nowhere near the caricature that we build up in our heads based on their Internet persona. And of course, I handed out a ton of Moo cards.
I do have secret details about the Democratic underground and their evil plans, but those will be privately emailed around to the Vast Libertarian Conspiracy mailing list, which means the NSA will be reading it too. So who all did I run into? Well... not to sound too much like I'm looking through the magic mirror on Romper Room but...
There was Ken, and Jay, and Capper too... Tom and the wife of Buzz you knew.
