***NEW SEASON, NEW CARDS, NEW ALPHABAR GEAR***

Buongiorno Amici! Carlo Ravaggio here, back with a little AlphaBar announcement for-a your ears.
Itsa a new year for AlphaBar, anda we are a-going to celebrare come gli italiani, at Amante! Che bellissima! I know a-what you are a-saying to a yourself: "Thissa crazy icehole is a-not a-know what he's a-talking about! It-a wassa New Years-a six months ago!" But we Italiani like-a to party on New Years, so you a-have to give-a me some a-time to recover, Bellissima! I-a only a-woke up-a from my Grappa-induced coma two days ago, and I'm a-still a-shaking! Ha ha!
Anyways, my little coglione are just a-shriveling up a-with excitement about this bar. Itsa even gotta an Italian name. Do you know what Amante means in Italian, my little ragazzi? Well a-let a-me tell you, itsa gotta lotta definitions! It can mean "lover" or "fond of" or even "mistress!" But believe me ragazzi, itsa not a word you want to hear-a your affidanzata saying, because that means she knows about-a your little extraconiugale on the side! Sofia say she's-a not a-gonna take-a me back, but-a you just wait, mi amici, Imma gonna win her back with-a my Italian accent and-a my lazy eye! Iffa Il Cavaliere himself, Silvio Berlusconi, canna have a nice little ragazza on the side, why can't Carlo!
Butta my head is a-killing me with all-a this writing, so I'mma gonna keep thissa short! You know you love a little vino, a little-a grappa, maybe even a little limoncello to wash it down. And-a trusta me amici, iffa you eat-a any of Mamma's panforte, you'll need a little of everything justa to getta the taste outta you mouth! Ha ha! Don'ta tell Mamma I said so!
So, ragazzi, come a-join me at Amante for-a the a-first AlphaBar of the year. I'mma gonna be there. Mamma's a gonna be there witha somma her panforte and-a maybe a bowl of linguine alla pescespada. And, oh boy, I gotta tell Veronica notta to show up because I'mma gonna bringa my Sofia too! Never bringa your little amante to the same place as your affidanzata!
Oh, anda itsa in North Beach, justa like a little slice of Italia in San Francisco. If you get lost, just ask for Carlo Ravaggio, Il Padrino or Father Guido Sarducci! Monsignore Sarducci will be performing weddings all night! Divorces and annulments half price!
See you there, Bellissima!
*********************************************
San Francisco Alpha Bar is a year-long social club meeting every other Wednesday night at 8 PM. Each season we start at the top of the alphabet and hit up bars on a bi-weekly basis until we've gone to a bar that has started with every letter of the alphabet (A-Z). Our mission is to tour SF, pack some cool bars, and most importantly make some new friends!
When you attend an AlphaBar you will receive your membership card and a hole punch for the week you have attended. The more hole punches you have gives you bragging rights AND the chance to win a prize at the end of the season. And yes, the prize will most likely be more alcohol so you can make it through the off season.
A little disclaimer...
you don't have to be single, you don't have to be married...you can come as you are...you don't have to get shit-canned, there are not any fees to participate, this is not a business or even a non-profit...we are just a gang rallying our buddies and their buddies and their buddies' buddies to get out and about in SF and have a good time.
