you guys know what you're doing by now.

If that were only true.

. . .

You may be misoverestimating some people.

I might try sum of that Black Lickerish Tasting Crap™ tonight...

I'm hoping to have a glass or two with two old good friends,
I mean two good old friends,
I mean old friends good.

What a co inside ants.

Not to be confused with a co inky dink.

Indeed.

Drinking a bit myself. And wondering, where the FUCK is Grim.

May I double that indeed?

Make mine a double, if you're up anyway.

Went to the pub tonight.
I have a standing Tues night date with my favorite Vegas character.
He's 82, been here since '64
and has the best stories.

Comes in, has two Buds and goes home.
If you get there at the right time,
you get to hear all about
Elvis and Frank and Dean and Tom
back in the day.

Tonight, some drunk asshole
who kept staring at me
tried to pull me away.
"Aren't you sick of talking to that old man?"

Never, jackass. Now fuck off.

Some guys just don't


GET IT.


A double it is.
I hope you like this BLTC.

It's all I have.

Try Sum Black Licorice Tasting Crap™ instead, you'll be glad you did.

That xit really is the xits.


No wonder that's your bar. Now I'm jealous.

If Picasso had tried to interrupt
my conversation with this guy,
I'd have told him to fuck off, too.

And yeah, it's a bit of a sausage fest,
as Dinky pointed out when he was here,
but it's a grate pub.

I drank sum very mediocre Black Lickerish Tasting Crap™ it was not The Xits, as I don't have anymore xits...sank the last two swallows of the second glass...

Uh, oh...

I used my pool for the first time since I've been here.
Three damned months.

That was mighty nice.
And blue.

A beer in celebration, I think.

Yesterday was my "Friday" so after driving home sans ac in the 100 degree heat and then going to the store where I discovered some Hoegarten I slugged down most of a sixpack of Ho's followed by a local verte. I'm staying in today -- it's horrible outside.

I drank booze and punished the Liver
and Peeps,
Walked them around the woods all day and then sat in the New River and cooled our heels.

Then we drove around in his beemer with the top down and examined some old personal history.

Ate eggs and scrapple, drank a peepsuccino and said adios.

Sounds like a great time!














except maybe for the scrapple.

WTF is Scrapple? A new Snapple flavour?

It's kind of like head cheese, without the cheese.

mmm head

It's a game of scrabble that turns into a fight.

don't they all?

...™

That's the stuff, only this was HG.

oh Snapple

The sun is shining, a bottle of S.Blanc is on ice, the beer fridge is full, a fresh bottle of 18yr old scotch is on my counter, a cigar is cut, 3 movies rented and a night alone to just lounge around.

I'll be passed out by midnight.




btw- A.B. are you saying I used your pool before you did? Amazing.

I just got a bathing suit yesterday.
I've used other pools before you did, but not mine.

I got several places to go and I'm on my third verte but that reminds me. The wife is out of town for a week and I generally enjoy the things she doesn't while she's gone. I have to go get a cigar or two to savor in her absence.

Drinkslinger: I also enjoy a fresh 18 year old on the counter

From what I know,
Dinky prefers them old enough to drink with him.

and it doesn't hurt if they're his sister!

Fluffy. Ummm, ewww !

With women it must be 21.
Scotch... I'll drop in on a ten year old, but I usually hit the 12 and 18's.

Lots of mead.

Saison,

Pale ale.

Tasted about 15 different Absinthes tonight. Texas Nimes was top on my list.

Switching to Single Malt now....

Where you been hangin out?

Dr. Cocktail's house last night.

So does that mean there was substantitve talk about absinthe all night?

Um, no.

But I did try some excellent HG.

Texas Nimes is quite fine.

Last night, I was lamenting pouring the last of my good absinthe.
Magically, some appeared today.
Many thanks to the generous psychic who sent it.

I drank this thick blanche yesterday that had a wee bit of Thyme in it. One glass royally fucked me up. I think it might be poisoned.

*fingers crossed*

Thyme will tell.
