Summary
Callahan's, renowned far and wide in this world (as well as more than a handful of others) as THE bar for the universe's weirdest clientele and best all-around, intersteller ambience, is being forced to close down. When its loyal customers demand that it reopen somewhere, anywhere, the hunt is on for new location. Will the bar be able to survive the move from Long Island to places unknown? Will the new location be as conducive to tales tall and otherwise? And, as a superfluous side concern, just how is the move tied up in the impending end of the universe and will the bar's eclectic denizens be able to save us all?
