Brooklyn

06 Aug 2006

After some debate, H&I jumped on a plane and flew from the west coast to the east... all the way to New York City! H had a couple of friends there who were good enough to escort us from airport to hotel, and then show us around town for a day or two (ta girls).

On our first night in the city we went out for a few drinks and ended up finding a small Irish pub somewhere on 2nd Ave. The bouncer was this big black guy and for a second it looked like he mightn't let us in, so H piped up with

"Excuse me, but just so you know, I've got a genuine Irishman here!" she says, pointing to me.
To which the bouncer replied without missing a beat "And I'm a genuine black man. You still need to show me some ID!"
