Lowbar vs. Isobar
Every once in a while I’m amazed with what basic, readily available technology allows me to do. I’m posting this to the world (or at least the dozen or so world dwellers who actually visit this site regularly) from a ship in the middle of the Pacific ocean. Kind of neat when you think about it.
Anyhow, I spent a couple days in Australia...most of this period is a haze. Met a lot of delightful people. Somehow, in Hobart, we kept finding ourselves at
Isobar, a place making an earnest effort to be hip, which is stymied by the absolutely terrible cover bands. We met some good people there though, and unfortunately our time was cut short with them by a departing boat.
The
LBNewswire needs a good kick in the ass.
And, for the rest of you...did you know the buildings of the Sydney Opera House are actually tiled? I always thought of them as concrete or something. When in Sydney, I recommend a stay at the
Kirketon...if you've ever wondered what was meant by the term "Tragically Hip," this will define it for you.
