Good Evening,This week PNNY is checking out a new bar in a neighborhood we haven't been in a while. Based on one client's review of this bar, the triumvirate thought it a good fit for the PNNY crowd. ""The crowd was not as khaki as I had anticipated, and just the right size. (A couple preppie types, but also two people chained together and some girl in colored fish nets).""
There was also some debate this week over the Paul Revere's ride and the proper way to celebrate this historic event (from TK):
"My dorm in high school was called Paul Revere. We used this chant every
year at dawn of April 18th when we did our annual "Ride." The Ride
changed from year to year depending on how many of us were on probation,
but the original concept was a raiding of as many boys' dorms as possible.
We only took boxer shorts, the more colorful the better, and then would
hang them on the school flagpole which was directly outside our dorm."
Anyway, here's the chant in question:
Listen my children and you shall hear
Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere
On the eighteenth of April, in Seventy-five
Hardly a man is still alive
Who remembers that famous day and year
Of the midnight ride of Paul Revere
and some other historic references to the eventful horse ride of April 18th.

Is there a proper way to celebrate this historic event? Tomorrow night over cocktails we can decide.This week we are heading to a new place in Chelsea.
