The Liffey is being remodeled within weeks.
Gentlemen, I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't a little concerned. Were any of you consulted about this, because I certainly was not, and it's bothersome.
What's up with that?

I agree. This is most disturbing.
Its hard to imagine any kind of change. I mean its like if the Mrs decides to trash your TV chair. Devastating.

I for one was not consulted.
My only unsolicited suggestion to the GM was that it would be wonderful if he added Kiltlifter to the beer choices.
Maybe they are just going to open the windows for a short period to let the place breath?
Maybe a bored meeting is required the day before they remodel and we chain Chris K to the bar to stop until we approve.

The remodel starts tomorrow! They'll be doing this over my cold, hung over body!! I'll be chaining myself to the bar in protest, let's see how many days it takes them to move my massive girth out the door! Let's hope they don't try to lure me out the door with glasses of Finnegans...

Day Five of the Protest, growing thirstier by the minute. I think a warm glass of Milwaukee's Best might be enough to lure me out the door. Hope is fading fast.....

Day Six. The noise and thirst are getting unbearable, I could break at any moment. The good news is that I've been losing weight.

Day Seven. I'm just about out of the food that I stowed away in my folds of fat, things are really getting dire. CNT still thinks I weigh too much despite the fact that I can almost see my feet now. Will he be happy if I have to self-cannibalize and start eating my own folds of fat to survive? Probably not.

Day Eight. CNT's mocking of the Fat Channel only makes me stronger. It also helps that I've discovered a tap that wasn't shut off. I can now hold out until the keg runs out. Or until I see flying pink Neutrons.

Days Nine-Eleven: Flew by in a haze, almost got carried away by flying pink Neutrons late Saturday night.
Bono made a surprise appearance prior to the U2 show at the Bank on Saturday. Things were going swell until he figured out that I wasn't protesting against starvation in Africa but rather the renovation of a beloved Irish bar. He stormed out in a huff muttering something about it not mattering what the inside of an Irish bar looked like as long as they were serving Guinness and Irish whiskey.
I'm still chained to the bar but the renovation has been continuing around me. The nimble feet I might have gained due to the slight weight loss has been completely offset by the unsteady legs brought on by over consumption. I'm beginning to believe that the tap was purposely left on and their strategy has served them well. Nothing left to do now except to protect the bar from renovation. A noble cause that I'm clearly proportioned for.

Day Twelve: This has kind of been like the twelve days of Christmas if your idea of it is spending twelve days chained to an Irish bar. Actually, it doesn't seem like a bad way to spend Christmas, I'll have to try it sometime.
The flying pink Neutrons grow larger by the hour but rumor has it that the renovation--or what they've been able to accomplish of it despite my protest--will be done on Thursday. The end is nigh.

Day Thirteen: My resolve is weakening as the Liffey's hotshot Irish lawyers have shown up to bargain with me. My near comatose blobbish form has been scaring the workers during the renovation but they are reluctant to press charges especially after I mentioned that MHF has an in-house attorney.
The sticking point has been the amount of free beer I'm to be compensated with if I renounce my protest and announce to the world that the renovated Liffey is the greatest thing since beer served in a glass. Where's that attorney when I need him? Probably in Arizona somewhere...
Check this link out for pictures of the renovated Liffey. I'm surprised I'm not in any of the pictures, I must have been sleeping behind the bar again. They probably had to wait till I fell asleep because I would have blocked out too much of the light in there.

Day Fourteen: The Day of Reckoning. At 3 pm the Liffey will officially reopen and they'll roll my tired, bloated, hungover body out the door. Despite a last ditch effort by TA to off me I am still alive and drinking but early returns from Alfred E suggest my protest may have been unsuccessful.
In my current state of mind I'm ready to side with Bono but that just means I need some more Finnegans. When all is said and done I'd pay someone to say that this renovation is the GREATEST thing since beer in a bottle. The new look is AWESOME!!
And I'll keep saying that until the free beer runs out. Another Finnegans please....
