Bars are a fascinating venue for people watching, especially those featuring the grittier variety of atmosphere. People don't show up there pretending to be something they are not; you head uptown if that's your game. "I am who I am, this is where I'm at tonight, so cue up or shut up." (Note: This is merely my projection, as I would not venture near the pool table, being the kind of, ummm.... inconsistent shooter who might mar the felt or send the cue ball bouncing off the table. Real players get cranky after the first such incident.)
Honesty can be found in all kinds of places, if you
keep your eyes open.
