At least this time I have a semi-legitimate reason for being late – no power! But that would not stop us here @ 333. Keeping on trucking with the candle lights on. And power, no-power – Puff’n’sip is ON!

Today’s, December 19, 2007 Puff’n’sip will commence @

5:01 PM @ Sense, 4 Embarcadero Center (2 floor)
And proceed @
6:44 PM  to Cigar Bar And Grill, 850 Montgomery (@ Jackson)

Come and play! And if I don’t see you, which is true for the most of you – happy holidays!
Lotsa love,
Stas.

That’s all I can think off. Cold and Puff’n’sip. And clouds are really, really pretty… But gray and cold. People in the GAP ads look very happy about their  red-yellow-orange striped scarves. People on the street look cold. No striped scarves…

Now to Puff’n’sip – Today’s, December 12, 2007 Puff’n’sip will start @

5:13 PM @ John Colins, 90 Natoma (@ 2nd)
And will continue @
7:04 PM  to Cigar Bar and Grill, 850 Montgomery (@ Jackson)

Lotsa love!
Stas

On Monday, December 17, there will be a happy hour taking place at The Imperial Room at 5:00pm. You may ask yourself, “Monday? Why Monday?”

Here are five reasons:

1. Monday gets its name from the Moon, which is cooler than the Sun, and boring Sunday.
2. Prince wrote “Manic Monday” for The Bangles because Prince is too cool to sing about Monday’s bad rap.
3. Monday is the first day of the week for many cultures. Monday is #1.
4. Wilco has a song titled Monday in which someone is trying to get out of FLA, probably to get to MN, even in December.
5. Garfield hates Mondays, but nobody likes Garfield.

See you there – the last Puff’n'Sip for 2007.

Minneapolis Puff’n’sip

Santa has a prepared a PowerPoint deck for you.

What

• 3rd Annual Bad Santa Pub Crawl
• Tomorrow Friday, December 7th beginning 4:30PM
• meet at 83 Proof (1^st and Mission, 83 1st St)

What you need

• Santa, elf, or reindeer apparel. Bunnies, pirates, and penguins do not live on the North Pole. Beluga whales are OK.
• Santa-fication gear (to make others into Santas!)
• Toys and gifts (naughty and nice)
• Comfortable shoes. Santa left his sleigh at the North Pole — you gotta walk.

Puff-n-Sip Costume Pub Crawl subcommittee

I now it’s a cliché, but it’s such an accurate one. Such powerful and odd feeling. It’s sweet and welcome, but it hurts and torments, makes you laugh and cry at the same time. It’s like a brain freeze from a 7-11’s slushy.

“The 3rd Annual Bad Santa Pub Crawl is here!” – you think. And you laugh. “But not until Friday!” – you think. And you cry… “Here! Friday…”, “Here! Friday…” — On and on and on and on…

But Puff’n’sip is here to keep you going through Friday. This week’s, December 4th, 2007 Puff’n’sip will start shortly after

5:27 PM @ Norton’s Vault, 500 Sacramento (@ Sansome)
and continue @
7:01 PM @ Cigar Bar and Grill, 850 Montgomery (@ Jackson)

See you there! And lotsa love,
Stas.
