Good advice, Mikey. Moving to higher proof I think...

Crooked it is. Sadly, I have had to gird myself with three more shots due to arguments with my 16 year old. The cocktails I made in between the first and second were Eva Peron Cocktails. 1 ounce each of Fernet, sweet vermouth, ginger liqueur, lime juice and ginger beer. Shake all but ginger beer, strain into collins glass and add the ginger beer. Garnish with lime slice. I Don't cry for me Head-Case!

Excellent news, Brent. I want an HC ensemble one of these days.

good riddance (unless his son, etc., are worse).

Just for Marc, it's Fernet Branca Night! First, a shooter with ginger beer back. And close your eyes Shelly, I don't want you to be sick.

@Shelly; what he said^ @Mike: excellent work Padawan!

Haven't seen you around much, Ryan, but I hope you're having a great day. Cheers!

Earlier on the speakers: Now, on the DIY T2 and BHse with 009/SR-O:

I hope you had a bourbon & branch! Seems kind of obvious, but maybe not the most exciting. Come to think of it, I have never ordered that at Bourbon & Branch so I can't really complain, but there ain't no branch water handy in these parts.

How about it, Doug, Justin has upped the ante so are you going to match his bribes?

Yes, it is really hard Chris, but I'm glad your family was together. So sorry for your loss and best to you and your family. Going to add a toast to your dad to the one for Shelly's anniversary.

Congrats is appropriate here -- one for Shelly and one for hubby! Congrats! Going to toast you with Parker's 27 cause that's a lot of years!

I like in the airport video where they are tipping the lead guy back and forth and then suddenly turn and start to synchro slo-mo jog toward the crowd passing by. It looks like the passers-by all flinch for an instant like the suits are going to attack. Good stuff.

Rapscallion Belgian golden.

And fuck faulty bottles too. Just left the office after 10pm on friday. That sucks. Family was already going to bed so i stopped at a new brew pub and ordered a pizza from next door because the kitchen is closed. Having their "Easy IPA" which is meh but works for me at the moment. Edit: kicked it up a notch with an Angel's Envy on the side.

Did it look something like this (except Autumnal not Stateside)? Autumnal is not my favorite Stillwater, but I have not had the barrel aged version. There are plenty of others to look forward to so don't be too saddened.

So I guess cunfartcubed's one friend on DIYAudio is NoNoNoNoNoNo? Nice.

Seconded. The synchro slo-mo jog is my favorite move. Especially with poodles.

The Stork Club had a 1:1 recipe, so that would have knocked Marc and Shelly right out! I will try with 4:1 and 5:1 to see how those fly, but this creme de menthe changes things enough that you want more not less. A sharper cognac is the other change I will try. A good night, indeed, Squire Doug. I quite liked the Bitch Please, and it went well with whisky to my recollection (as clouded as it may have been).

I haven't kept up with him or any other journalist but I used to love reading his column in The Nation. Rest and Peace don't seem like appropriate wishes for him. How about: kick ass and take names wherever you are Hitch!

I hope you know this will go down in your permanent record!

Just got home from work. I'm having a Stinger Cocktail with 3 parts Park cognac and 1 part Tempus Fugit creme de menthe. Tasty but I need to try different proportions.

BHBD K3cT! Cheers
