I guess tonight I'll just have to settle for embarrassing questions... (that remark alone cheered me up)
I don't really drink but as I understand it there are a lot of different types of bars and there are some where you go to meet other people, some with regulars that get to know each other that kind of thing. My dad I know goes to the bar to watch sporting events by himself but he knows all the guys by now.
