I’m looking to start my own bar in a small town (40,000 people). So it’s not going to be an upscale bar, it’s a blue collar community. I could pay for some items out of pocket (glasses, furniture, decor, billards tables, entertrainment, music related items, ect.). I was going to consult the VA reguarding the establish/lot. But i was seeking a SBL to pay for the business/liquor license, walk in cooler/freezer, 2-3 month supply of beer/liquor and payroll. Would anyone have an idea of how much money i could possibly get from a SBL (I make around ,000 year as of now). I would be willing to put my house up for collateral (0,000 value). Are there grants or any other benefits i would be entitled to for such a business? If you have any other advice not reguarding this subject feel free to post your thoughts, thanks for your time.
I was actually debating this, i would rather be the sole owner, but I do have a friend who was willing to put down k and a rental property for collateral…

Because I went to my sisters bachelorette party last night and was way more drunk than anyone there. I woke up feeling fine and everyone else was throwing up. Like I fell out of my chair at the bar. Not kidding. I’m a real lightweight too I weigh 110 pounds and I had 3 glasses of wine! 3 apple martinis, 3 shots and some champagne… Is that normal?

Like in the movies, throwing chairs, breaking glasses. Thumping people… It certainly sells more movie tickets.

My girl is 3, my boy is 5. They both wear glasses. We are doing a 1 hr photo shoot and I like the old fashioned/ rustic style. Any ideas on how I should dress them/props? Answers with links to pics of costumes, etc, would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

I went to visit his house, sat and petted so many Cats.
Hot that day in my floppy hat, Summer on the way.
That was just the way of that, a seasonal display.
Walked the still quiet streets, found a tavern off the beat
sat to cool under old ceiling fans
wringing my hands, "why am I here?"
"Hello my dear,
may I buy you a drink?", I heard, I think
"Name’s Earnest, can I call ya ‘Truly’?
I turned to look, saw no one there, but the chair
swung back toward me.
Two glasses sat on the bar, suddenly I felt far
from home and familiarity
yet closer to a destined reality.
"Careful young sprite, the whiskey will bite,
come visit again if you’re in this place.
stay awhile, even long,
at my home you can sing your own song."
HMMMM. I thought it quite clear?
Hemingway, Key West, FL? sorry.
sigh. No TD’s from me folks.

My boyfriend and I just bought our first home and we have two rooms that we’re planning to knock down the wall between in order to make one large entertainment room in which we’d like to have a little bar (no sink or anything that extreme, just storage and display for glasses and bottles).

We want to have a color scheme that will flow with the rest of the first floor. I’m painting our living room green, that leads into the kitchen which will be orange (with green accents) and that brings you down a hallway, leading to the room in question. We both really like blue and I thought that would flow nicely (green into orange with green accents, both citrusy colors, orange into blue, complimentary colors) but my boyfriend is worried.

Besides the colors of the wall, I’m having trouble finding furnishings online for this room…I’m not sure if people just don’t DO entertainment/bar areas in their homes but I’m still at a loss. I want to look for nice bars and stools, dartboards, and I was thinking that wall seating (almost like upholstered restaurant booth seating in one of the corners of the room) would be nice (can’t find ANYTHING like that online). We’d also like to incorporate some of our favorite movie posters into the room (we’re both big cinephiles!) in a nice way as well, but we’re not sure how to do that.

If anyone can help by giving me some websites where I can find nice things for a bar/entertainment area, any good ways to display our movie posters or any opinions on our color situation, that would be great! Thank you so much!

I live in Louisiana, our wedding will be in a banquet room at a restaurant. They charge 16 per person which includes eight food choices, tables, linen, chairs, glasses, silverware, ice, soft drinks, water, set up and clean up. Beer is 3 per bottle and cash bar. 100 guest. We have to pay tax and gratuity aside from these prices. What taxes and how much gratuity is usually asked for and do I additionally tip any servers or bartenders.

Basically, my boss’s Pub is closing down soon (In Cambridgeshire, UK) and i’ve been asked to try and sell ALL the items – from Glasses to Bar Furniture to Ice Machines to Dish Washers! Besides eBay, what’s the best way to get rid of everything? Are there places that buy back ice machines etc!?

Any advice will be helpful! Thanks

im frustrated because i know its important as iv had it more than once and im a psychology student and i cant work it out… i feel my sub conscious doesn’t want me to lol

i walk into a bar which iv only ever been in once ever(before my debs/prom) and that was for about twenty seconds, wooden walls chairs tables floors and bar counter… its all amazing pine and nice
then i close my eyes and its all burnt blackened and water damaged
i again close my eyes and now the place is full of ppl… i cant make out any1s face because some of them are are blurred (like when your not wearing your glasses) others are kind of like when run water down a fresh painting and there face is all runny, some are completely featureless (like the nurses in the movie of the game silent hill)

then they all start to crowd around me restricting my space so much that iv to hunch my shoulders in but im not afraid im just curious… then they start to bob and nod while whispering a kind of deathly rasping… some of them then start to fly past my face one of them comes up really close and does that whispering thin really loud in my ear while grabbing my shoulder… and i weak up sweating yet was never scared in my dream…

im sorry its so long but any help at all would be great

My daughter is getting married in NC and is trying to find a nice, all-inclusive venue. By all inclusive I mean: facility for 3 hours, passed hot and cold hor’doeuvres throughout the reception, full decorated hot and cold buffet with fruit display and coffee station, full open bar, DJ, wedding cake, all linens, tables, chairs, plates, glasses, etc., all taxes and wedding coordinator. Here in New Orleans they are everywhere! My friend’s daughter was recently married at a beautiful place called Magnolia Plantation and it was per person—AND we thought that was high! The cheapest thing I have found comparible in Wilmington will run about 0 per person, with a lot of different, complicated coordinating of different services. I’m ready to move up to NC and open an all -inclusive, beautiful wedding reception venue and make a fortune! Does anyone know of one I have may have missed? Any suggestions?

Q: Why is divorce so expensive?

A: Because it’s worth it.

A man comes home late one night, drunk.

"Where have you been?" asks his wife.

"In the Golden Bar! They have golden chairs, golden glasses, golden beer, and a golden urinal!"

This sounds awfully suspicious to the wife, who calls the Golden Bar.

"Do you have golden chairs?"

"Yes."

"Do you have golden glasses?"

"Yes."

"Do you have golden beer?"

"Yes."

"Do you have a golden urinal?"

"Hold on." On the other end, she hears "I think we have a line on the guy who pissed in your saxophone."

I just want you to know, I did not write the song. I just want opinions.

I was walking down the street
to my Escalade,
When I saw a little kid
Selling lemonade.
I asked him for two glasses
But he gave me three,
I asked him why was that
He answered: "When you buy 2, you get 1 for free.
So I kept on walking, to my car
When I stopped in my way, I saw a bar,
I entered with confidence, and guess who was there,
It was Homer Simpson, slouching on a chair.
I thought I was dreaming, but I soon found out
It was just a costume, without a doubt.
A little freaked out, I stepped outside,
And I saw my Escalade, it was all fried.
Blown to bits, that’s how it was
And that’s why I’m asking you, Santa Claus,
To give me a new car, I was nice all year
And while you’re at it, could you fetch me a beer?
You go ask Santa for a beer because the guy rapping said that he was nice all year, and now he wants Santa to get him a beer, which isn’t always the nicest…

We have shopped IKEA for a few years now, and honestly, everything we have purchased except for some kitchen towels are crap…furniture has scratches, the glasses have chips or have broken and the rugs look gross. Now..we don’t have kids and I have a full time maid, so I know it’s not because we live more grossly than others. What do you think about IKEA?

First off I will list everything I want shipped:

Large computer desk
Full size canopy bed
Floor lamp
Small dresser
3 seater couch
1 seater matching chair
26" LCD television
Small TV stand
Coffee table
Side table
2 small lamps
Kitchen table with 2 chairs

The rest will be about 6 or 7 boxes of ‘stuff’ (plates, glasses, silverware, clothes, shoes, neccessities)

Can someone tell me how much I can plan on expecting to spend having this moved from NC to PR? Also, I know you have to pay a tax on the items when they arrive in PR, can someone also try to include that on what they think I will end up spending? I am curious as to if this will be a better deal than selling the stuff here and buying new stuff when I get there. ALSO, I thought about getting a washer and dryer off Craigslist and having that included in the shipping since I know they’ll be even more expensive in PR.

I called the Rosa whatever moving company they can’t give me an estimate until Monday, so anyone who has been here done this please give me helpful advice!
