Screw the Lounge. We need a Grotto.

21 and over, open bar. Live music. Plenty of dark private spaces to slip into and get away for awhile. No freetards allowed.

Who's with me? I'll set up a paypal account to take your donations...

2. 21 and over?

You guys get screwed everyday in the US and have no clue.

Move the Grotto to Montreal - women, wine, pot and freedom.

4. We have not yet discussed

where to construct the Grotto. Your suggestion is duly noted. How much does an acre cost near the top of the mountain?

3. I'm in . . .

Cool. Dark. A little Cole Porter, Gershwin. A smashing martini . . .

AAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH--now that's the ticket.

Just where is this paradise? I'm thinking it might work for my backyard!

9. Now, see this is gonna be a problem

I think the guy coordinating Grotto construction efforts should get to put it in his own backyard, but maybe I'm not entirely impartial. Or,

"Hey, maybe there is no Grotto. Maybe it's one of them metaphorical things."

"Oh yeah, yeah... Like maybe the Grotto is the place inside each of us, created by our uninhibited lust for skimpy clothing and alcohol."

"Ohhh! ... Nah, they said there would be martinis."

apologies to Lenny & Carl

7. Will it have a special gay section?

or will it be progressive enough that if I hit on a hot straight guy, he would just smile and say "sorry, dude, I play for the other team, but I am flattered":shrug:

8. You're about 110 yrs too late with this idea, SB.

J.A. Wayland had a socialist community at Ruskin Cave in 1894. They still don't know how deep the "pond" in the cave is. The temp is a welcome relief to the heat, though. Cool breeze....probabley 15 degrees cooler. :)

I'm frightened of waters of unknown depth. I'd be no fun at all in that Grotto.

15. As long as it's not Grotto's Pizza

That stuff is worse than the gunk you pull out of Yak hair but it's a Delaware institution and folks from the state seem to love it!

Just for that, I'll see if we can't find you a quality fake ID. And don't worry even if we can't - I know the bouncer. ;-)

to get me to NC. Although I suppose we can do both. Would be nice if Grotto construction was complete in time for my visit. ;-)

Dungeon construction was completed over the winter. We're all set that way.

45. LOL... I gotcha.

I'm afraid my Chippendale days (if I ever had any) are well and truly over.

I'm dense in the tradiotnal, middle-aged dad-of-two sort of way.

Good luck with your hunk hunt!
