The Last of Dick's--Tonight!

An anonymous forward re: Dick's Bar:
Dick's Bar closing on May 31st. Hope you all can come
by and celebrate the end of an era. There'll be drink
specials and food, so come on down.

Also anonymously, a helpful commentor on my original post has more detailed memories of the place than I do (read this before eating any of the food tonight!):
one bust? in my quick calculation, there's been three (louis, david, and 'louie'--then the coke moved to the cock (as did the customers and jane county!); four closures due to health code violations; three jukeboxes (remember, there was the legendary one, where the nasty box is now, as well as the one by the front window!); and four hotly-feminine-asian-new-wave-bar boyfriends of johnny.
And, all this Dick's talk unearthed the repressed memory of the time an old drunk guy there who wanted to take me home and play with my nipples told me "I have an open door policy: you can leave anytime!" Hot!
