Never has a goodbye been met with more indifference

So the Lazy B was here five years? I had forgotten them after the Elkhorn Lodge debacle. Five consecutive years? Except for the Reel Mountain Theatre, no business has said a longer farewell, with zero community involvement or investment or interest in this protracted goodbye and fare thee well, as the Lazy B. It is right there in their name. The performance was lazy, the food was lousy, the whole idea behind resurrecting something from the 1960s and thinking people still had any nostalgia for that era, itself a Bonanza and Wagon Train-manufactured nostalgia for the 1860s, when people routinely died of typhoid and dysentery, was both lazy and crazy. How it held on for five years (five consecutive years? Weren't there some interruptions while the performers hocked their instruments and had to take jobs in the circus?) is a testament to finding/bleeding someone possessed of both inordinante amounts of money and stupidity, never an easy combination to locate. There was the charlatan's trick, to continue finding dupes willing to fund the silliness.

As Kate McKinnon so stridently said so often on SNL, "Byeh". See ya, wouldn't have ever wanted to be ya.
