One time a friend burst in and shouted, "This may the Sidestreet for you, but it's a dead-end for me!"<BR/>Danny O's is known in the neighborhood for being the skel hang-out--it's a dive indeed. <BR/>Karl's Klipper has live-band karaoke on Tuesday nights. Don't get to Ruddy's much. <BR/>Usually the coast guard only escorts the ferry during times of heightened alerts. I take that tub every day.Johnnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15637014263334636951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8746822.post-1135789457926706852005-12-28T12:04:00.000-05:002005-12-28T12:04:00.000-05:00Language they were speaking at Danny O's?

Also as we disembarking I noticed a a picture of the Coast Guard boat in the ferry, but I didn't get a chance to read what it said about it.Bar Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01099819556329174506noreply@blogger.com
