Hello, Friends! This is my favorite time of year. Summer is NOT over yet and football is starting. And Brett Favre has given his permission for the NFL to continuue playing. He's like Wilford Brimley, he just won't go away! Sorry, got distracted.

Monday is Moonlight Madness with $3 3-Olives drinks, Orange Tuesdays with $4 Ketel Oranje crushes, Wednesdays enjoy $2 Natural light cans, Thursday is Girls Night Out with $5 select martinis, fantastic live entertainment every Friday and Saturday nights, and Sangria Sundays. We're open for lunch and dinner every day with happy hour from 3-6 at both bars. Take 20 percent off your check.

Thanks to all who spent time with us this past week. Lots of fun familiar faces, and even a few politicians. Great to see Moe S. (go Tigers), Mark and Missy (of course I'll call you a cab), Kevin and Luke, Art and Patti (the 3rd appetizer throws me off), Curt and Kathy, Rick and Karen, Rick and Cindy P., Karen and Agnasty, Betsy and Carmel, Rick and Judy (lotta Ricks this week), Jason & Stacey and Bob (I miss my Other Renee), Ryder and Patti, Dave and Dorris G., Ellen, Buck, Sam, and $-Bill, Jason and Terry, Buxy, J.D., and anyone else I might have missed. I guess when I thinned the brain cell herd I took out the wrong ones.

Thanks also to Martin O'Malley and Jim Mathias, both of whom joined us this past week. Lots of people exercising their "right to bare arms" recently. I've never seen so many sleeveless shirts. Shane, how was the concert? I hear Tom Petty opened with Zzzzzzzzzz. Happy Birthday Blake! I can't believe I allowed you to live 19 years. I guess it's cuz I was only 9 when you were born. On a side note: If there happens to be anyone reading this who is responsible for the packaging of Imodium AD, I think I speak on behalf of all of its users when I say, we'd appreciate a little less tamper resistance. Why must I necessitate industrial use garden sheers to get into the medicine? Clearly, if one has purchased this product then time is a factor!!! I feel much better now that I've gotten that off my chest.

Everbody come to G-66 and hang out with us. Believe it or not, I'm the normal one on the staff. Have a great week O.C. Love and kisses, K.R.
