This is a review of another...

This is a review of another kind. It’s a time machine. I just had to click on the Pussycat Lounge link in the NYC section because I recognized the name but (I can’t believe) I couldn’t place it immediately. Reading the reviews gave me quite a smile! I’ve not been to the Pussycat Lounge in about 25 years; but, aside from the recent introduction of lap dancing, the place hasn’t changed a bit.

My office then was in One World Trade Center. The Pussycat was an easy stroll for some unwinding after work – a little banter with the bartenders, some distant dancer ogling and mild chit-chat-induced arousal, a couple of beers and a quick hop to the subway home. The place was always fun – nothing heavy, nor anything expected, either.

I salute the Pussycat for having ridden out 9-11 and its aftermath along with so many other little businesses… like George’s Lunch, just down the street! (Reviewer agnusdei really needed to include this little Greek diner in his great July 10, 2007 area description. John Belushi would have been pleased.) And I’ll find time to get down there - this time for a dance - the next time I’m in the city.
