Last Monday, my girlfriend, a good buddy and I went to the event, where over 100 exhibitors couldn't be more eager to hand out free booze (well, free if you got hooked up with a pass from Kevin at New York City Bars and Patrons).

Man, there more more freeloaders than at a Snoop Dogg family reunion. But it was all in the name of killing brain cells, so what the heck?

I drank a good 15-20 shot, beer and frozen drink samples, so I was feeling like I got my $0 worth out of it.

And not only was there booze, but almost all the companies had "booth bunnies" to attract attention. I don't think many of these women were used to getting paid with their clothes on, but it made for a surreal, only-in-New-York Monday evening.

So lucky for you ('cause I already saw it in person), Kevin posted a recap and photos from the Bar Show.

And speaking of bars...

1. Database of drinking games — very comprehensive. Some of you college kids might want to print out a page or 20 of them
2. The Claudia Emporium — a page dedicated to a 5-10 blonde who slings drink in Jersey City (a town I frequent about as often as I dream of Roger Ebert naked).

* With the ACME Heart Maker, you can add your own four-letter words to those Valentine's Day candies that taste disgustingly like chalk.

* I love the "virus warning" this guy sent which duped AOL users into deleting their application. I cannot believe people still take seriously e-mails from people they don't know.

* Here's a Flash movie of what would happen if Richard Simmons was a guest on a talk show hosted by Charlton Heston (Low-bandwith users proceed with caution -- meaning click on something else.)

* It's all downhill from here. It's the Jump the Shark: Movie Version. You know the drill: post thoughts on when exactly a band or singer's career

* Every three-and-a-half or five days, I think about whatever happened to Ralph Malph. well, through the magic of Jewrassic Park from TotallyJewish.com, I have found out exactly what is going on in the lives of Donny Most, Dustin Diamond and Rick Moranis.

Now I can die in peace.

* You gotta check out the database of models at this Strip-o-Gram site, then leave after only a minute or so after realizing it sells (for money!) e-cards. If you're gonna waste your money like that, just send it to me.

* I don't know why someone would build an entire Web site dedicated to riots on college campuses, but I am proud to say that my alma mater, Syracuse University, is featured.

I swear that while waiting for my interview there, I poked through a yearbook, and there were pictures of a bloody riot to "celebrate" the Orangemen's advance to the 1987 Final Four. It pretty much cemented my desire to go there.

* Doctors remove 222 nails from man's belly — "Doctor, it hurts when I do this." (Man proceeds to swallow hardware.)

* Taco Bell robber nabbed after waiting for Chalupa — "Gimme all your money ... and extra sauce!"

* Cookie Monster is assaulted — It always sucks when the Gotti family stops by the amusement park.

* 10-year-old 'Dog Boy' found living in cave — "Now, son, wait here for mommy and daddy. We'll be back in two years."

* I came across this photo gallery from a whipped cream wrestling event and thought that maybe — just maybe some of you would want to check it out.

Oh yeah, the festivities were apparently held at Woody's Nightclub. Wonder how the owner got his nickname.

From the same site, here are the winners from the Ms. Bikini 2000 search.

Check out the judging criteria: ability to speak. Ability? So what does that eliminate, mutes only?

* Fawnia Mondey is tabbed as "the best model of January 2001." No argument here.

From the same site, here's Wendi Winburn's body of work. Wendy, you should know, is busting her butt to be part of the Miss Xtreme Team.

* Cowgirl Haley has some new pics up and needs all your votes in the TWT June Girl of the Month Contest. (She's No. 2.)
