    Last time I helped myself to a drink in a bar like this they opened a door with my nose escorting me out....I think I'll wait for the bartender.

    *knocks on the door and enters*

    I like the fact that this place is open 24 hours, plus the drinks appear to be free and that's definitely an added bonus.

    Sooo....I figured this is the right place to post this little notice.

    Drinnks all round, to anybody who's here, I got my little girl this morning

    She's a chocolate (or seal, not sure) lynx point siamese cross. She looks like a little white tiger, and has spunk and attitude to match, even though she's TINY!

    check her out while the pic's up she's the one looking down, but her face is quite like the middle one of her siblings.

    Her name is Subaru! but I just call her suba-chan, she's too little yet for a long name.

    *shrug*

    You asked for it...

    slides C4 a Molson's Canadian

    What happened, C4, lose a bet, or did you pick "dare" in the "truth or dare?" thread that you're drinking Molson's? :p

    So tell us about the saki ceremony when you were in Japan. It sounds like a good story...

    well....its was a few years ago..and I had the great honor to be in Japan as part of a very exclusive group of NASCAR teams doing a demonstration race at Twin Ring Motegi.....everything was provided, including a welcome NASCAR dinner, complete with people at the entrance doors who obviously had been praciting the few short english words they had to master "WHISKEY & SODA, WHISKEY, COCA-COLA???"
    Needless to say after a few of those...(after a few Molson's gratiously supplied by our Molson's -- our sponsor) The hosts..the people who own Honda....had a traditional Saki Barrel opening ceremony, well the saki came around...we all toasted...and continuted to toast and get toasted. By 10pm we were all rather liquified!!!

    Next day was a little rough...and I was the Tire Specialist,which meant running around pushing cartloads of tires back and forth to the goodyear truck, all the time very very hung over......the first pitstop practice was shaky...anywyas....we ended up recovering to drink again (as well as sell some canadian bevi's to some american teams for a considerable markup!)

    There's the story *slams the molson and shudders*

    There is a long silence as Rani watches Victory Base's demolitions expert slam back his beer. Slowly, a smile creeps across her face, as she pulls out a bottle from under the bar.

    "You want a whiskey chaser with that, whiskey and soda, or Coca Cola?" :)

    Good story! Thanks!

    pours two fingers (two very FAT fingers, that is) of scotch into a glass and slides it across the bar to C4, then props her head up on her elbows and waits expectantly for another C4 story.

    Hold the scotch bottle tantalizingly

    I believe you owe us another story first, Mr. Abductee. ;)


    EDIT: Rani clues in, film at 11:00!

    Oh, that supposedly was the story, or the tail end of one, huh, smartass? :p

    Pours another drink for C4, shaking her head.

    No no no no....that wasnt the story..that was more a reference to the fact that I was abducted by the evil "work related travel" monster for a couple of week......I have stories alright...but the TOS and I would have an informal meeting of the minds for some of them.....now....pass me that scotch :p
