The Hot Club

THE HOT CLUB
WHERE HEARTS ARE ON FIRE

BUT IT’S NEVER TOO HOT
FOR THE DEVIL MAY CARE

575 South Water Street

Providence, RI


Someone told me that Contraire wanted his house painted. The guy wouldn’t paint the house unless Contraire paid his Blue Cross. So the guy didn’t paint Contraire’s house.



Wise says that Contraire still has his communion money.



Whose nickname is Waterloo? More importantly, how did he get it?



Former IBMer Steve said that in the ’60’s and ’70’s, if you spotted a guy in an airport who was wearing a 3-piece business suit and the 15 lb. wingtips (the shoes of a thousand eyes), it was either an IBM rep or an FBI agent.



I was bemoaning the loss of Smithwick’s on tap to Britt. She advised me, “Don’t ever get attached to anything at the Hot Club.”



A guy at the HC wore a tee shirt with the following message: ‘My drinking problem solves your ugly problem.’



Happy Birthday to Julie Massey who celebrates this week. Jules rules!



Congratulations to Brittan Bates who got married last weekend. Best of luck to the newlyweds and much health and happiness.



A sign that a company is going under – they bring in someone to manage who has no experience in the field and who used to be a child counselor. Good enough for Letterman’s Top 10 List.



Overheard at the Hot Club: A married man tells a single woman that she’s very attractive, bright and fun to be around. He assures her that she will find someone. The woman blurts out, “Then find me a man!”



Overheard at the Hot Club: Patriot Pat’s Pub. That has a nice ring to it.



Contraire recently called Sportzine “Sports Lies”.



“If a horse can’t eat it I don’t want to play on it.” Fleet Feet Pete quoting Richie Allen.



Kate suggested I check out the site Rottentomatoes.com for movie reviews. Katie said that they gave a 93% rating to Sam Raimi’s Drag Me To Hell, an unusually high score.
