You kind of hear about you occasional killing at a downtown Dallas Hip Hop bar or some rundown place off of Harry Hines, but you don't hear about many stabbings that get started in an Uptown bar. (That's normally where I roll with my entourage.) But we have a new entry of getting-killed-in-a-club-where-you-don't-expect-to-be-killed: Tribeca. (And, for Ticket fans, it looks like a place where a bunch of Chris Chris's hang out.)
Remember kids, no one got stabbed at Frilly's last night. And, tip number two: Leave your boxcutters at home.
Edit: The Dallas Morning News began allowing comments on its stories this week. And, man, they let quite a bit go through. Much more than I thought. The story on this incident is here.

A Man Can Get Stabbed Anywhere These Days

I don't know if a person will be killed being just anywhere...it helps raise the chances when you're drunk and going after big guys with a blade.
Speaking of, I went on a dead guy/fire last night you may have heard about on the radio this morning. Sympathy to friends and family.
Speaking of dead guys, that reminds me of this: I was a volunteer ECA and/or EMT for many years, in Gawd's Country no less.
This one time when I went out on a call, for an old, dead geezer, one of the other town's more experienced personnel told me this: "It always seems we find these old people dead in the back bedroom, naked."
Well, that's what I found, sort of. An old geezer, dead in his bed, but he had his underwear on. And that made me think "so what". I have, and always will, sleep naked. It's just so hot in Texas, I can't help myself.
I covered him with a sheet, after checking pulse on his ankle. I could just look at him and tell he was dead, but I was trained to do otherwise, just to confirm the situation.
And then I, and many others, waited for HOURS for the JP to finally get there.
Thankfully, I could smoke cigarettes, which I did. Sadly, there was no beer.
And in the end, I could confirm he was not just merely dead, he was really most sincerely dead. But since I was not a JP, nor a doctor, I just got to sit there, smoking cigarettes.
I am so thankful that the bouncer didn't use a taser or a gun with rubber bullets! Humane discipline is so much more important the inflicting torturous pain on innocent people with box cutters!
God Bless Texas!
What is it about humans that they feel the need to put drugs in their bodies to believe that they are having a good time? I have found that I feel much better fishing sober than drunk. I feel much better visting family and friends when I am sober than when I am drunk. I feel much better taking my dog for a walk when I am sober rather than when I am drunk. I feel much better posting to this blog when I am sober rather than when I am drunk. I enjoy watching the Olympics on TV when I am sober rather than when I am drunk. I enjoy sex much, much more when I am sober rather than when I am drunk. I drive much better when I am sober than when I am drunk. I enjoy being a parent when I am sober much more than when I am drunk. In fact, I cannot think of anything I enjoy doing more when drunk rather than when I am sober. I think people have the stupid, very obviously wrong idea, that they will feel good when they are drunk.
Amen, 7:23 AM--even "Bill" Shakespear said (in one of his plays) to this effect--drinking increases the desire (for sex) but decreases the actual ability to perform. That was recognized even back in Shakespeare's day (1600s?)! So much for having "more fun" while drunk! The only thing you can increase while drunk is your stupidity.
