Welcome to the Drunken Intellectual
3 comments
I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. My name is Mark. I am a 30-something self-described “drunken intellectual” living and celebrating life in Baltimore City. I love the nightlife… I like to boogie, and all that. And I have had the pleasure to enjoy the nightlife, and to boogie, all over this town for many a year. Oh, and in case you were wondering, I also like reading, independent film and New Orleans in Autumn…
But this blog is not about me. This is about sharing my experiences and observations of the many excellent beverages and drinking establishments this town has to offer. In other words, we will be talking about booze and bars, and all the many things that go on in bars. We will be talking about college sports and beer pong, fine wine and cheap beer, outdoor smoking and indoor puking. There will be discussions about trivia nights, steak nights, salsa nights and, of course, karaoke nights. But mostly, we will be concentrating on the finer points of the alcohol beverage and the joy it can bring. Hopefully we can all learn a thing or two.
But let me add a disclaimer or two as well: I do not intend that you take anything I say seriously, much less as the “one true word”… no matter how strongly I declare it. And every now and then, I will stray off topic, because that’s just how I roll. But if you have a sense of humor and half a brain, you’ll understand where I’m coming from. So here’s looking forward to a long, healthy relationship (assuming you can call any relationship based on the consumption of alcohol “healthy”). Hopefully I will be seeing you here often… which would make you a “regular” as they say in barspeak.
So come on in and take a seat…
