Typical Thursday

As old men, I thought we had outgrown childish things like barfights . . .

Once upon a time (around 1:15 am on Oct. 22) at Plum Crazy, a crazy thing happened. We were sitting there, minding our own business, when suddenly Powers got jumped by some dude. I vaguely recall Powers talking to some broad, the dude walking up, Powers saying something like "beat it, bitch" to the dude, the dude slamming his drink down and breaking it, and the dude throwing wild punches at Powers. Powers dodged the dude, and I grabbed him from behind by the face to "break up" the fight. They got kicked out, we stayed. Pretty fun, all in all.

But no, that's not all -- when we leave the bar, the dude is waiting for Powers outside. So, finally everything outside chills, and the dude and his friends are pulling away in their car. An inebriated Skogen decides that this is the perfect time to work on his "people's elbow", on the hood of the dude's car, and does so. Then those 5 dudes get out of their car, and a 5-on-5 brawl in the EZ-Jay's parking lot ensues. Enter rent-a-cop to regulate. Fight breaks up, we escape relatively unscathed, and no one is arrested (from our group).

So ends night one of the Powers-Brothers return. This weekend is going to be interesting.

I am speechless. I am without speech. I am soooooo glad I missed all of that. God knows I cant afford to be out brawling (as much as I would love to be). Its just a shame that people get drunk, and then they act so ridiculous in public that you literally have to restrain them to bring them to their senses. I mean really, come on Tony!

Well, I know that tonight should be alot more of the same. I'll be sure to wear riot gear tonight instead of the usual nighttime attire. Best wishes to all, and be safe my cherubs.
