On oneof the localblogs someone was afraid we may be drying up here locally with churches outdoing the bars in the yellow pages. Soemone else said course its all in how ya look at it, but in clatsop county the glass's ALWAYS half full! Here's what's in Astoria, according to that list:

Geno's
Annies
The Desdemona Club
Hong Kong's Lounge
Lattitudes Tavern
The Schooner
Labor Temple
Merry Time Lounge
The Chart Room
The Voodoo Room
The Wet Dog
Lower Columbia Bowl
Golden Star Lounge
Portway Tavern
Workers Tavern
Red Lion Lounge
Pier 11 Lounge
Ship Inn Restaurant & Lounge
The Public House
House of Chan, Panda, Good Luck, Lucky Star Lounge (or whatever it is being called for the moment but its across the street from Pig 'n Pan)
Silver Salmon Restaurant & Lounge
Moose Lodge
Eagles Lodge
BPOE
American Legion

the poster said these are just the ones whose job is to give you at least one beer (i think genos would argue bout that). the list does not count those (like all of the mexican restuarants and other new eateries) who serve beers, wine and liquors with the meals. In Astoria alone, not to mention all of the bars, lounges and taverns that Seaside, Cannon Beach, Warrenton/Hammond, Knappa, Elsie/Jewell, Hamlett, and Gearhart along with their lodges, golf clubs and country clubs, we are far from being outnumbered by the puritans. clatsop county's cups more than runneth over!

another poster said that in a healthy economy their are more drunks. bars should outnumber churches 2:1. wouldn't it be true that in an unhealthy economy people drink more to forget how unhealthy it is?

do you think we are healthy or unhealthy in astoria and are our bars and endication of our economy?
