The Jack London Bar Crawl

Because you really want to put off studying for finals until the last minute...
Because you study better once you've had a few drinks in you...
Because P's are for overachievers...

I present to you the Jack London Bar Crawl. (Not to be attempted by amateurs).

Start: Quinn's on Embaradero in Oakland
Time: around noon
Highlight: eating peanuts and thowing the shells on the floor, into the Estuary, or at the waitress

Next up: First and Last Chance, in Jack London Square
Time: Somewhere around 2pm
Highlight: You're not that drunk yet; the floor really is slanted.

Hungry?: Try the Happy Hour at Kincaid's (at the end of Franklin St; any further and you're in the water)
Time: 4-6pm, Monday Thru Saturday
Highlight: $3 margaritas and mojitos

Proceed to: The Warehouse, 4th & Webster
Time: 6ish
Highlight: All the off-duty cops (inconspicuously) still carrying their guns.

Still standing?: The Fat Lady, Broadwayish. Just ask your friendly street person for directions
Time: If you can read your watch, you haven't been drinking enough
Highlight: A good chance to meet the 'locals'

Only one left: Merchant's, On Franklin & 2nd, before Produce starts
Time: Last call at 2am
Highlight: How can you not love a bar who's official slogan is "When you're having more than six..."


And remember, kids, when you drink, always drink responsibly! (Translation: I hereby disclaim any liability for you injuring yourself or others as a result of your visiting the fine establishments listed in this post.)

I'm looking to purchase a few used tapes, outlines, etc., regarding the MPRE (assuming you all are allowed to sell them). john dot steele at fr dot com.
