Remote Blogging This is a first for the Villenke blog...we are coming to you live from a remote location.

Today's post comes to you from Mezze Cafe & Cabaret as we wait for the weekly belly dancing. I must agree with Kzoo J-dawgs long ago post of truly enjoying the idea of being out on the town, immersed in the local culture and feeling like I am not some old codger. I've got my glass of Edmund Fitzgerald, my Harry Potter un der Gefangene von Askaban, and my fake Apple computer and I'm listening to some live acoustic guitar.

There are some couples out on dates, there are some friends meeting for a drink, there are people bellied up to the bar, there are some friends of the guitar player, and there is me.

Here at Mezze we have caberet seating...which means that they will seat strangers at the same table. If you have ever been to Europe this is the norm and not the exception. Every time I come here, since I am alone, they warn me that they may seat others with me and I must assure them that it is quite OK with me.

Next week Kate's mother and step father are supposed to come and watch the belly dancing. The following week, which may be the last if the contract is not renewed, a bunch of people from Kate's fraternal side are supposed to come. That should be a great time and if it ends up being the finale then at least it will go out on a high note.

Cheers from Mezze.

Now down under the Mac(e) XP into OS X you will find my Adsense. I plan on making enough money from this to retire in a 4th world country very uncomfortably.  ¶ 20:04
