OK, the kara-oke plan. We're trying out Sam's in Laurel. Address below, starts at nine, so show up whenever. I haven't been there before, so no idea if it's good or not, but hey, that's what experimentation is all about. The *downside* is, my babysitter backed out ( my mom forgot, even though I asked weeks ahead of time, and made reservations for Dover Downs, ) so it's looking unlikely that I can make it ( unless I can arrange another at the last minute, if anyone has any suggestions. ) So, meh. But that doesn't mean y'all can't go and have fun anyways! Sam's Bar & Grill 9994 Washington Blvd Laurel, MD 301-953-3836
