Try a great glass of wine or a Turkey Bacon Swiss Panini if you don't like that we have Deli Sandwiches with your choice of ham, turkey, roast beef, or salami

The Most Interesting Man in the WorldFebruary 15, 2014I knew a man with the nickname Sparky during my time in Polynesia. We called him that because he was a scrappy fellow, and also because he was a pyromaniac.Upvote27Downvote

Never come on Monday. Unless you want to hear Wobble, Cupid Shuffle, Boot Scoot Boogie and the Macarena all in a row. Terrible terrible music. An awful excuse of a gay bar.Upvote4Downvote
