(a la Zhané’s “Hey Mr. DJ”)
I suppose a rap verse by Teddy Riley, ghostwritten by Pharrell Williams, would have also been appropriate.

across the street from the old bar.
It didn’t dawn on me until this morning, but I often pass by a bar at which I used to spend many nights. It could be argued that I spent as much time liveblogging my nights of debauchery as I did drinking there. Maybe.
