Nope, mostly just sitting around being a lazy arse. I'm not even getting worked up over the politics and current events threads.

I think TGRR's new user title should be 'fairy princess'.

I used to know a bouncer (pub security guy) in Queensland whose bouncer nickname was Princess.
See, he was new at the job, and he told the others that when they called him on the 2-way radios, his name (Josh) just sounded like static. Being a New Zealander, he suggested "can you call me kiwi insted?" to which the head bouncer replied, "nah, ya don't get to choose yer own nickname, princess." There was a meaningful pause, and the die was cast forever. ![]()

He just posted a rfn on the grumbling thread. Maybe Lumberjim can work from that.

One other bouncer was named Stamper.
Not so tough, really, on his first night two other bouncers held him in a headlock and stamped all over his face with the door stamp (for re-entry). Hence the name. And there was one called Muff. Well, she was a female bouncer, whaddaya expect? ETA: Princess was involved in the team that cleaned up the Cabulture hotel (which Ali may know of). Imagine the movie Roadhouse (which Princess swore was a documentary) with 8 bouncers and about 30 angry patrons who had to be banned and kept out, but without the sexy doctor or evil rich local guy.

They sound like the sort of blokes my ex works with.
You know, we have a lot of issues with security staff at pubs and clubs up here right? lol

I remember the episode when Bouncer diagnosed Lucy's brain Tumor. And what about the time he saved Madge and Sky?

Our non-profit group just purchased the old (mid-1930's) theater. We explored backstage and the orchestra pit area which has been closed off for decades. Yellowing ledges with receipt amounts from GWTW, etc., and fascinating bits of equipment and whatzits. I can't wait to go back in with a camera!
