    On my 23rd birthday I was in Las Vegas and got thrown, literally, out of a place called Pluto's. I was walking around downtown Vegas, back when it was a fun place and not the canopied police station it is now, and a homeless guy asked me to buy him a bottle. You could buy a bottle of Mad Dog, a bottle of Night Train and a half pint of vodka for less than five. We sat in an alley and drank and talked boxing; I woke up in the alley. Life was good, having no sense.

    Today I was drinking a couple Beltian White Ales at the Metals Bank sports bar in Uptown Butte and trying to flirt with the bombshell bartender that is probably not quite 60 percent my age. Out the window I saw a guy in the middle of the intersection yelling and waving his arms, then he started throwing punches at a cop and got rolled up.

    The rescue mission in town has been closed and it is about to be bitterly cold. I think that he was trying to get locked up to avoid the weather.

    Actually, I heard that it's better to give homeless women feminine products instead of money, so I rushed off to buy some, put it in a paper bag (for privacy and dignity) and gave it to this homeless woman I saw in a shop doorway.

    She gratefully took the bag and looked into it. There was a long pause and she looked into my eyes ...

    "What the fuck am I going to do with an iron?"
    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    Why'd they close the Mission? Real shame around the holidays. Guess it depends where ya live, down here going into holding or a drunk tank you'll be lucky to come out with your shoes. But go in saying hey I slugged a copper you might get extra chalky cheese and grey meat on your jail sammich and get to keep your blanket. Btw did you get a number from the bombshell .

    They got shut down over health code violations, which is hard to do here. There has been a couple efforts to open in a new spot but the people in those areas saw what happened in the original location and blocked it.
    No, I did not, not yet. She would probably think I want it to set up a shuffleboard match with her father.
