Good Afternoon
This week we’re going to a bar and a neighborhood
we’ve been wanting to revisit. Once more it’s time to
leave the East Village and venture, well, north and
west a bit. The last time PNNY was at this bar the
bathrooms (besides the cocktails) were one of the main
attractions:
Murph's Guide reviewers say "the bathroom here is
nicer than in many people's homes!" and "the most
beautiful bar bathroom I've ever seen."
In my hunt for interesting historical facts to include
in the PNNY email - I found Today in Science History
(my chemistry teacher would be proud!) anyway, here
some highlights from this week:
In 1837, British inventors receive a patent for their
electromagnetic telegraph
In 1897, the Swiss Army Knife was patented by Carl
Elsener.
In 1895, the first U.S. patent for a gasoline-driven
automobile by a U.S. inventor was issued
In 1901, Thomas A. Edison was granted a patent for a
"Phonographic Recording Apparatus"
So where are we going this week? Xth Ave Lounge has
happy hour from 6-8pm so bring your friends, neighbors
and assorted strangers over to Hell’s Kitchen for
Pubnight!
See you there!
