does Joe even know what a building permit is? Your place burns down and you have to rebuild and you don't for one second think you might have to file a permit or go through an inspection?
I don't want to get off on a sub-rant here, but Summers New Door told me Joe should have known better .
It's our Summers we can love who we want
We can kiss who we want
We can sing what we want
Red Bull and sweaty glasses everywhere
Hands in the air like Sammi don't care
'Cause we came to have drinks for cheap
Bet somebody here totes falls asleep
If you're not ready to go home
Can I get a "Hell, no!"? (Hell yes)
'Cause we're gonna go all night
'Til we see the picklebacks, alright
So la da di da di
We like to party
Dancing with Laurie
Doing whatever we want
This is our Summers
This is our rules
But Joe can't stop
But Joe won't stop
Can't Joe see it's we who own the night?
Can't Joe see it's we who 'bout that life?
And we can't stop
And we won't stop
We run things, things don't run we
Don't take nothing from nobody
Yeah, yeah
It's our Summers we can do what we want
It's our Summers we can say what we want
It's our Summers we can love who we want
We can kiss who we want
We can sing what we want
To my home boy here with the big beard
Shaking it like we in the Red room
Remember only God can judge ya
Forget the haters 'cause somebody loves ya
And everyone in line in the bathroom
Trying to get the one stall that works
We all so turned up here
Getting worked up by all the jerks
So la da di da di
We like to party
Dancing with Laurie
Doing whatever we want
This is our Summers
This is our rules
But Joe can't stop
But Joe won't stop
Can't you see it's we who own the night?
Can't you see it's we who 'bout that life?
And we can't stop
And we won't stop
We run things, things don't run we
Don't take nothing from nobody
The only thing worse than Peyton Manning's performance on Sunday was Javelin Joe's. I don't want to start 2014 with a rant, but Coors Light isn't really a beer special because it really isn't a beer. And who the hell wanted a Chicago-style hot dog with a dashof celery salt? The Chicago Bears weren't in the Super Bowl and the Super Bowl wasn't played in Chicago (not that it was played in New York by the Broncos either). You would have been much better off trying to serve some New York themed dishes like a knish or some baked pretzels. And what's up with the 1992 clip art image? The Detroit Lions haven't been in the Super Bowl since... man, I'm terrible at math... carry the one... since never.
Joe really needs to focus less on shitty grammatically-incorrect poster (there was only one in the entire bar) and more on improving the service. Okay, so the service might not get better that quickly so let's focus on branding. Buy Summers-themed electrical tape to hang the posters and proof-read them before you hang them up or you'll turn that 16 oz. can of PBR into a 16 oz. can't.
10. Close the Red Room on the day after April Fool's Day
11. Open the Red Room by Mothers' Day
12. Open the Red Room by Memorial Day
13. Open the Red Room by the World Cup
Damn. Joe isn't doing too well on his New Year's Resolutions, but who keeps any of their resolutions? In my defense, I don't own a bar and I'm not in the business of trying to satisfy customers, especially ones that might have become attached to a brand like the Red Room that you spent time & money trying to build.
ARLINGTON, Va. --- The Arlington School Board and the Arlington County Board will recognize one at the Fall 2013 Connect With Kids Champions. The honoree doesn't include the most incompetent Arlington County business owner ever. EVER.
Connect with Kids Champions are individuals, groups, businesses or organizations that understand children and teens, and go out of their way to help, support, and connect with young people in positive, meaningful ways. The Fall 2013 Connect With Kids Champions personify the concept, whether providing care and personal attention to children with disabilities, or taking the extra time to sit down and listen to young people, mentor, encourage, and guide them. Javelin Joe doesn't join of 59 other Champions who have been recognized since 1994.
Javelin Joe's commitment to the Summers Regulars (BYOB) over the past several years is depressing. He recently enlisted the help of an Arlington personage with an interest in the exact opposite of customer service to produce a video story on why the service at Summers is so bad. “Sammii spreads her disrespect for customers with her smile, and lives the Summers commitment to treating customers like shit because we couldn't care less what the customer thinks or wants and besides customers don't know any better,” said Avelinjay Oejay, who just happens to work at the place where we asked people for comments.
Four score and seven months ago our fathers brought forth, upon this corner of Courthouse & Wilson, a new nation, conceived in Libations, and dedicated to the proposition that all customers are treated like crap.
On the third day of Advent, my true love gave to me... RG3.
...
Whoa...
Wait.
Hang on a second. I get the RG3-Third day of Advent connection, but is that really necessary? I mean RG3 isn't really that good of a quarterback and since the Redskins suck this year, he's not much of a gift. Can we trade down for a better Summers Advent Calendar selection?
It's not the second day of December either. Maxima mea culpa.We had back taxes we had to file and spent 18 months in prison because our attorney was too busy trying to calculate the income tax we were required to file rather than prepare our case for the courts after we placed a $1 bet with the Arlington County government based on the fact that we thought that Joe would have at lest two million customers a day for his coverage of the 2012 London Olympics. Sure, the odds were 1000-1 that he wouldn't have that many customers, but we believed in him even though it was the Olympics and even though NBC was showing events on four channels and even though he only had one sign and even though he wasn't open for most of the live coverage, our faith was rewarded and our bet came in and as a result we made a billion dollars on which we never paid income tax which got us thrown in jail which is why we have been so quiet the last 18 months. Tax evasion incarceration is a bitch.
So behind door number 2 are these wise words of advice: gambling is for suckers.
So what if it's not the first day of December? We were in the hospital due to smoke inhalation as a result of the fire in the print shop next door and we just came out of our coma and remembered our Blogger password. Just be glad we're back and accept that as your first gift of Advent.
