Several things made an impression at this karaoke spot: enthusiastic renditions of rock, country and R&B classics, spurned on by cries of "get'r done!"; the taxidermy and American flags hanging around the room.

We'd love to share the explanation of "Bobbitt's Law" posted behind the bar, but this is a family paper and all.
