Interesting cocktail Colin. I wonder if the absinthe is used just for a wash? I may do one of these with the proportions the same as a regular Empire and use the absinthe that way.
Thanks for the inspiration!
Listening to various things by FZ tonight. He passed twenty years ago today. So many facets to this man, and I realized tonight I am 4 years older than he was when he died. Fuck.
So sorry for your loss, but it sounds like you were prepared for it. That doesn't make it easier though. Raising a glass to Ozzy, a good dog and friend.
What Nate said Dusty.
For me, I went to the oral surgeon to have a tooth extracted. Right before Thanksgiving. Ugh. Thank His Noodly Appendage for Tylenol 3 with codeine. I was going to wait until after but it got painful on me and it had to be done. Now I have a couple of months wait and then an implant install. Additional dental work is also in my future. All because I hate dentists. I am trying to change this.
Ric, I'm glad it turned out to be a minor incident.
Greg, in regards to fencing - in the last Olympics I was fascinated by fencing, both men's and women's. Not sure of others watching it on tv but I loved it.
Quest for Fire - Lights From Paradise. Thanks to Greg the bartender at FFF I get to listen to this (and other good things) on Sundays while slowly slipping under the malt and hops.
