Rummy,

During my 18 years of working the
"back-side-of-the-clock" I used to fly Peoria, Illinois a lot.  There was a
bar accross the street from the hotel that would let us in at 6am because
the owner liked company while he counted the money from the previous night.
They officially opened at 7am and the third shift post office workers,
nurses, and factory workers filed in.  Many also participated in a bowling
league that met at 9am.  The place was between the Federal and County
courthouses and was called the Judges Chambers.  By 8am a few lawyers would
stop by to start the day and troll for clients.  One day I was there about
9am (my closing time) and one of the lawyers had been there for about as
long as I had. 
"Tim, don't you have any cases today", I asked.  "OH SHIT!  I've got a DUI
case in five minutes" and he then bolted out the door.  We all laughed and
agreed we were glad he wasn't representing us.  Anyway, based on years of
experience at the Judges Chambers, I'd say about 6am is appropriate.
