A Tale From The Roosevelt Island Trellis Diner Bar - Patton, FDR, Pearl Harbor, Jeopardy, Loons And A Pretty Woman All In 60 Seconds


 A funny Trellis Diner story from Roosevelt Island resident Sarah Lynn Michener:
"PATTON! DON'T SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT PATTON HE WON THE WAR!" - Drunkard #1 to Drunkard #2

"You know I am gonna get shit for this but I really think FDR knew about Pearl Harbor" - Drunkard #3 to Drunkard #4.

"I'm leaving! I know better than to stay past Jeopardy! Look at this young lady who has to put up with you LOONS! Goodbye young lady. It's always nice to see a beautiful feminine presence in this godforsaken place." - drunkard #4

All in the space of 60 seconds at the only diner on Roosevelt Island, where Michener thought she'd drink coffee and get some work done.
Just another night at the Trellis.
