All right. We're havin' an event at Merlotte's. It's been too damn long and I've missed the big ones, so I'm decidin' right now that one's happening. ....Wednesday. There, it's decided. M'callin' it "Take Back The Night". There'll be live music and drink specials and all sorts of good times. Just for fun, it'll be a semi-formal theme.

We're also still hirin' for a number of positions, and I'm in need of an assistant manager in a pretty bad way. Come on in for an interview any day this week between 2 an' 4.

...And I'd just like to say to certain unnamed parties that I taste just fine, so fuck you.

It means how much alcohol's in the drink. 90 proof's about 45%, 120 proof is 60%.

[doeswhathewants]

Anything higher than that? Perhaps 90 proof?

[shifting]

I already told you 90 proof. ...Do you mean one that's 90% alcohol?

[doeswhathewants]

Oh! Yes, that is what I meant. So that would be ... 180 proof?

[shifting]

You've got it.

...You're of age, right?

[doeswhathewants]

You will be unsurprised to know that you are not the first person to ask me that question. In fact, I get it a lot. Many others might become frustrated at the legality of their age being questioned, but I give you kudos on being so thorough. I should think someone not of an age status would be disinclined to seek refreshment at your bar.

[shifting]

You'd be surprised.

And I'm still goin' to card you.

[doeswhathewants]

Card?

[shifting]

We'll still ask for you I.D.

[doeswhathewants]

I do not have an I.D. as I am no citizen of any country on Midgard.

You'd better sign up for one from the city then, at least if you want a drink in my bar.
