    Thursdays #119 - Shuttle on down...

    Richard has very kindly lent me the keys and said it was OK for me to open the bar and suggested a theme.

    To honour the space shuttle Discovery how about this for the DOTD:

    Space Odyssey

    Ingredients:

    1 shot Bacardi 151 proof rum or Myer's Rum
    1 shot Malibu rum
    1 shot Pineapple juice
    Orange juice
    dash Grenadine
    Cherries

    Mixing instructions:
    Fill glass with ice and add shots of Bacardi and Malibu. Add splash of pineapple juice and top with orange juice. Add grenadine for color and garnish with cherries.

    Mario, get away from those cherries....

    Anyway, we've got some little umbrellas for the drinks if anyone wants one and I'm going into the back to fix some snackies.

    Mario, get away from those cherries....

    Like I was saying, snackies coming up. I've got hankering for some onion...

    MARIO.....PUT THOSE CHERRIES DOWN!!!

    **chases Mario around the bar**
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Hmm, well, I'll join you in one of those cocktails, Slick, when you have a minute that is. Shall I get the snacks, or would you prefer me to hold Mario?

    Mario, my precious one, did you really HAVE to lick every single cherry before you put the jar down?

    MMMM, a rum drink for this week. That always does it for me!
    Thanks, Slick, I would love one. And while we are at it, let's toast the shuttle crew for landing safely - WELCOME HOME!

    Gosh, that crew must have felt so special - they got to bring home the trash from the space station. And then they did repairs while in space. Repairs and Maintenance - sounds like a bookkeeping category to me.

    I think we need to get Possum back in here to play with Mario. He seems so happy when Possum is here - and then he stays out of trouble.

    Slick, I can use one of those drinks, too! I just brought Marigold home and I think she's tired and confused and when I released her in the bedroom she went under the bed. I'm
    going to leave her alone to relax a little. Maybe a CNT for her?

    Sorry, I'm a little "spaced out" at the moment....

    Karen, DOTD DONE! I'll get the snacks in a bit.

    Gini, DONE! That was picked out just for you. Hold the cherries.....ewwwwww

    David, CNT for the girls and an SO for you.

    I'm sure Richard will log on as soon as he gets home from work.

    Whew Joyce! Here's your double and I've already started on another one because it sounds like you're going to need it!

    Mario, puhleeze! You're invading my "space"!

    Ok, ok, so I'm kinda brain dead and there's a lot of empty "space" between my ears right now, so hopefully a DOTD...or two or three...will remedy that.

    Sorry, Mario, I didn't really meant that. Come on over here sweety....

    i'm having a mixed feeling about getting a bonus and my boss is being let go, isn't that kind of a double?

    This strange feeling must be UNIVERSE-al...

    LOLOLOL, How is eveyone today?

    Joyce....If you liked your boss, you can feel badly....

    If not.....Let's play some music????

    -------------------------

    This is gonna sound totally stupid.....The shuttle made my week.

    Growing up near 4 airports turned me into the space cadet I am today...In October there are two MAJOR airshows close by and I am ready!!

    And it's nothing except the fact that man can get TONS of metal and plastic to go up in the air and move around...

    Can I get everyone a refill???

    Quick, I need a triple.....

    Just got news from the minutes of our Stata Council meeting that some MORE repiping is going to happen to the outside of our building which means a special assessment of approx. $2,000 each. Ok, Ok, maybe $2,000 is much to you but to me it's HUGE!! Where the **** am I going get that from??? Then, the redecorating committee is proposing a major overhaul of the front lobby which means more special assessments.....sheesh!!!!
    sorry, just needed to vent....

    Joyce, sit down on the couch. You need one as badly as I do.

    Debbie, you've got "stars" in your eyes and Mario looks like he's on another planet.

    Richard, I think I'll dub you "Rocket Man!!"

    Slick, that's awful! So boring to have to spend money on stuff like that! You will have to tell them that you must put away $2000 a month for a luxury hotel experience in California next year and they will just have to split up your share between the other tenants!

    What will I get going for breakfast today? Birthday cake, in case Oggy pops in! Yum! I'll bake it in my space shuttle shaped tin, of course.

    There really is only one song for the juke box this morning.

    click buzz whirr

    Ground Control to Major Tom ...

    Sounds like a great drink! I'm happy to celebrate with you. Finally feeling up to sitting at my computer. As a special gift, I've brought Mario his very own huge jar of cherries so he can finally have all the ones he wants. Hope everyone has a wonderful day!

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    I am feeling a huge amount better, thanks! Feel like a different person with those staples removed. They were really beginning to get uncomfortable as the skin was getting tight around them. Ok, enough of that. What does everyone want for breakfast? I would love one of those breakfast burritos I used to get in Texas. They were so good. There would be women cooking things fresh at all the Chevron stations. I wonder if they still do that? This was almost ten years ago. I can't believe Florida doesn't do that, too.
