Revisiting the Week:

Since I am Going to be hanging-out down in Indy, play'en at being a big-shot, I thought I would remind you of some of the key things posted here this week that can and will help you through your weekend.

Your Drink for the Week:
Special K
Stack In a 12 to 14 oz. Glass filled with Ice ( Build )

3/4 oz. Scotch
3/4 oz. Grey Goose Vodka
1/4 oz. Dark Creme De Cocao
1/4 oz. Strawberry Schnapps

Dash of Grenadine

Your After-Work/Holiday Party Cocktail is:
Perfect Manhattan
Ingredients:
2 oz. Bourbon
1 dash Dry Vermouth & Sweet Vermouth
Garnish w/ a Lemon or Lime Twist

Bar Trick for the Week:
The Jumping Egg: Only good at bars that have eggs on hand, you know the kind of places, Place two BIG sherry glasses near each other and put an egg in the one nearest to the customer. Tell the customer to move the egg from one to the other without touching the egg or the glasses. Here's how its done: Blow hard into the glass with the egg and it will "flip" into the other glass... Honest! (Practice to estimate the correct distance with a hard boiled egg ) Try it first at home, it took me four times before I got it down.

Your Weekend Quote:
Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it's a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from. Al Franken, "Oh, the Things I Know", 2002

Drive Safe, and don't let the man keep you Down, I remain:
