My column appears in the Louisville Eccentric Observer (LEO) every other week. Basically, I write about drinking — where to drink, what to drink, when to drink, why to drink and how much to drink. I'm always looking for ideas — new bars, favorite hangouts, crazy cheap drinks, etc. — so share your secrets. Better yet, tell me about them over a beer or two.

Today's Reason To Drink
No drinking till 6 on Election Day! That sucks. I could really use an after-work pint of BBC brew. Damn. Any way we can put "allow drinking while voting" on the ballots?
I'm thinking the best way to get a drink on Election Day is if you actually went and exercised your civic duty, voted, and then received a "Hall Pass" for said activity! That would really turn them out at the polls!!!
That's a great idea! If you vote, instead of getting that stupid "I Voted!" sticker, they gave you a ticket for a free beer ... on the government's tab. I think we're on to something.
Dearest Bar Belle,
