A Somewhat Young China Hand on the Local Drinking Scene

Celebrity Pub Crawl I: We have a winner!

For the inaugural Celebrity Pub Crawl, players recommended Beijing bars for the dynamic crime-fighting, pastel-wearing, Spyder-driving duo of Crockett and Tubbs from the TV show Miami Vice. The picks included Bar Blu, Alfa, Q Bar and Bus Bar, among others.

Alack and alas, there is only one winner. The name of everyone with a legitimate bar recommendation was written on a card and entered in a draw. Mark ‘The Dapper Dude’ Rybchuk from China Radio International’s China Drive show witnessed the process and pulled the winning card. The winner gets:

- A bottle of Grace Vineyard Tasya’s Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon from Torres

- A package of four books – Insider’s Guide to Beijing 2008, Mandarin Phrasebook, Healthy Chinese Cuisine: A Restaurant Ordering Guide, and Spicy Chinese Cuisine: A Restaurant Ordering Guide – from Immersion Guides.

And the winner is: Badr B.

Congratulations to Badr and thanks to everyone who participated. Celebrity Pub Crawl II starts tomorrow.

    I sure hope the next contestant is Mary Ann from Gilligan’s Island:

    ———
    Gilligan’s’ Mary Ann caught with dope
    http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20080311/ap_en_ce/people_dawn_wells

    DRIGGS, Idaho – Dawn Wells, who played Mary Ann on “Gilligan’s Island,” is serving six months’ unsupervised probation after allegedly being caught with marijuana in her car.
    ———

    What’s more suprising … that Mary Ann’s a dope fiend (come on, you had Ginger pegged as the druggie) or that she’s 69 years old and still toking up?

    Au Contraire mon frere,

    Don’t forget that Mary Ann was the farm girl on the island and was no doubt able to put her first hand experience to use keeping the castaways in “high” spirits, so to speak.

    Cheers, Boyce
