Well a $9.99 OF subscription will give you a better chance of scoring than $60 of wings, beer and tips to the same girl that's on OF

The other restaurant on the barge was opened by the cousin of our Vice President

That isn't as prevalent as we think especially as women get more shamed about it these day. The thing I have to combat is that we aren't shiny and new anymore. They want to go work at places that give them more social status. Social media made that move at light speed

When I was a kid living in the area in the late 70’s-Early 80’s, Newport was an absolute dump. It’s stunning how much its been transformed on the riverfront.

Am I the only one here somewhat confused as to why they’d be barging an old Hooters building up the river?

It was built on that barge and opened around 1992 I believe. The BBQ restaurant that was also on the barge was opened by my boss's cousin
