This Week in Twisted Jim History

A lot has gone on in the last week, surgeries, birthdays, terrible restaurants, bar fights and job issues (this last one I'm not at liberty to talk about lest I be dooced, so don't ask).

Twisted Wife had a problem with me posting the aborted alien fetus (or egg sack) picture. She said it was gross and no one would want to look at it. Turns out, everyone wanted to look at it. Over 96% of the traffic to my site visited the alien abortion page. Hell, even my mother looked at it. And almost all of you have either called or emailed to tell me just how gross it is. Guess what, I saw it in person... I know it's disgusting. Moreover, it came out of me! I still think it has my eyes.

We also celebrated TW's birthday last weekend. Some of you guys out there understand that once you are married, the weekend after your wife's birthday is their "birthday weekend." And it lasts the WHOLE weekend. Luckily, TW took it easy on me this year. She only had simple requests that I was glad to fulfill. For instance, she wanted to go out to dinner and to a bar on Saturday. I mean really, how hard is that? Read the review below to find out.

BLUE Review
BLUE is a small restaurant and bar in Old Town Lenexa (that's Kansas for all you readers that don't know where I am). As the "Old" in Old Town Lenexa indicates, this is not the hip and/or trendy part of Kansas City. Instead, it is a string of quaint shops and restaurants by a set of railroad tracks in the best little suburb of KC. That being said, BLUE really wants to be a hip and/or trendy nightclub. Which means either the owner is a moron for choosing its location or he's a moron for thinking people will drive from the hip and/or trendy parts of KC to visit his suburban nightclub. No matter how you slice it, this makes BLUE the funniest comedy club in Kansas City.

The waitress, using the term very loosely, was hilarious. When asked about the food specials her reply was, "We have $2 shots." We were one of only three tables in the entire place and she was overwhelmed. She would go to the farthest part of the bar from her tables just to avoid actually working. The bar owner came by and rubbed up on her a couple of times. So, I guess I know exactly who she's doing to keep her job. I couldn't stop laughing. To be honest, it made it very hard to eat. Of course, the food made it very hard to eat as well. It wasn't good... even by bar food standards.

BAR Review
As you can tell, Old Town Lenexa is so quaint all the bars and restaurants only have one name. The bar TW chose for her birthday adventure was BAR. Living up to its generic name was not a problem for this place. It was small and filled with regulars, or townies as some people call them 'round these parts. Again, I am from Kansas and every now and then I show it. All in all, it was fun. It had all the hole-in-the-wall ammenities you could ask for, pool, NASCAR and Football on the TVs, a jukebox and underage girls getting their drink on with older guys that told them how "mature" they are. I really can't complain. Our group had a great time and were thoroughly entertained. One of the regulars even bought me a beer. And knowing how socially inept I am, this surprised TW.

But then it came time for us to leave. Turns out the bartender likes to drink... a lot. So much, in fact, that he couldn't figure out how to split the bill in half and run two credit cards. And instead of just confessing that he was too inebriated to do his job, he decided it was better to be a beligerent fuck. So, overall my review of BAR is good. BUT don't stay too late, the help can't handle their liquor.
