Checked out this Portland bar today: DIG A PONY. Used to be a drug store back in the day when codeine was ubiquitous. (Monkey! put down the syrup) Well now it's a bar you can ride a bike into 'cause it's that big. I had this drink made of ginger infused vodka, ginger beer and, I think, ginger. It was a gingery thing of beauty. Only problem is, they didn't play any good music. As John Lennon sings, for no good reason: "You can syndicate any boat you row, yes you can syndicate any boat you row, I told you so! All I want is you, everything has got to be just like you want it to. Because"
