Incidentally (inside Austin reference here) I just found out that Cafe Java is BYOB (!)
So I walked next door to the liquor store and got a couple of little tiny bottles of Crown (!) In other words, IT'S ON. LIKE DONKEY KONG, motherƒuckers.

Isn't it that way all over Texas ?
When we lived in Dallas, you could not go into a club or bar(?) and buy a mixed drink. It was BYOB in a paper sack from the liquor store. You gave your bottle to the bar tender and your drink was mixed. You charged the same amount as if the club had provided the booze ![]() Then you got you bottle back where you were ready to leave. It was a crazy system, and maybe (hopefully) things have changed since the '60's |

Not only do I not know what you're talking about, but I only got up from laying in bed watching Bill Hicks to have another Crown and anxiolytic, and smoke a cigar on the balcony.
I will say, however, that all the best songs have James Ingram in them. Fact. But seriously, no. There are some places, like restaurants (and who decided how the ƒuck that is spelled?) which are BYOB because they don't have the license to sell liquor. But they don't take your hooch and mix it for you (?) and they only charge you for "set-ups" if you ask, i.e. a glass with ice and coke, etc. And God I can't imagine what Dallas would have been like in the 60s. They probably had the legal right to bash your knee-caps with a billy club if your moustache wasn't trimmed properly, or your shirt wasn't tucked in. :::shudder:::
