Hudson Bar and Books is another bar that found a loophole in the smoking laws. Because they selll a certain number of cigars, patrons are allowed to smoke indoors. Along with stogies, the menu has ten gazillion varieties of whiskey and scotch. The polished oak walls are decorated with prints of James Bond girls and double-O is always on the TV; I watched ten minutes of Moonraker while waiting for the pisser. The drinks are steep and there is an atmosphere of West Village swank, but it’s definitely cool enough to be put in the regular rotation. Cheers to Colleen for turning me on to the place.
…
McDonald’s for breakfast. Oh yeah.
…
Site of the Day: Randy Johnson threw a perfect game. I don’t even really like baseball and this still amazes me.
