Browncoat Bar & Grill - Home (Away From Home) To The FFF Supermodels by Nicodemus

You think you know--what's to come, what you are. You haven't even begun.

Blue and rivetted!

(since the release of the cherry Bawls, there's even more potential for jokes... I still haven't been able to find any in the store, but it exists.)

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.

hey all,

it's ok folks, the grumpy one had recovered his equilibrium thanks to not being in the office and his pilates class

Still working mind but no phone going, keep trying to persuade the boss to let me work from home occasionally but not happening. Wish I could work from the bar for real can picture it now:
Grrr, damn thing won't work, looks up to see a shirtless bartender wearing a Marvin helmet tossing a ±30°F Dew to a ninga kitten, a penguin drinking coke and various other browncoats in states of undress wrestling.

see much more fun than the office.

Speed tip for people, clear your cache regularly but also get a spyware checker and run regularly to get rid of all those nastry tracker applets and cookies that also slow you machine up.

Anyway off for food as other half is cooking, be back in a bit

Cheers!

*edit* The flavor of Bawls is the flavor of guarana; it's not quite like anything else, and everyone describes it differently. The cherry Bawls, I imagine, tastes like lightly-flavored cherry soda, but I don't know because I can't find it anywhere!
Anyway, the way I describe it is very lightly fruity, sweet, slightly tart/lemon-lime-ish, with a hint of caramel and a hella buzz

hmmm Rose I shall have to check this out as most caffeine makes me jittery and a bit off so I only drink it in dire circumstances ( like today when I've only had 3 hours of sleep and had to spend 3 hours planting)

Are they anything like rum balls RIMG? 'Cause I make really great rum balls

a half a stick of butter... melted.

Grease up the cookie sheet, ♫

I just used it for a jump-start; I'm usually just fine once the day gets on enough. Also got some Jolt mints so I could ease my way down, so I should be fine.
Gamers of the world (or at least my country) will tell you that you just never stop drinking the stuff and then you never crash

Or at lest, not until you're through with the lan party/raid/whatever that you're drinking the liquid energy for in the first place.

Don't forget the cinnamon! Cinnamon makes everything just that much tastier!

Zero, if you have the means, I highly suggest taking a look at thinkgeek.com's caffeine section. They have jolt mints, bawls mints, and several other caffinated mints for your buzzy pleasure

*gee pokes he head up abover the bar and smiles*

Good morning all, in celebration of me deciding that I want to I declare all drink are on me to bring some good cheer to the bar.

I hope Kel doesn't mind but in tribute to the blue skys and sunshine I have weaved a little magic and if you step through the side door into the beer garden you will find yourself in a forest clearing, I knocked up some picnic tables, there's balls various to throw/kick around, a river to swim in with obligatory swing and there's plenty of trees if you want a little shade. I have also re-stocked the fridges, cleaned the lines, checked the optics and brought up some spare voka & Jamesons bottles as for some reason we seem to get through them. There are shiny cans of dew hidden round the bar and beer garden to entertain any passing ninja kittens (some are boobytrapped to provide her with a stimulating environment so there are more in the fridge for the less adventurous). Finally, the kettles on, there's a pot of coffee on the go and I took the liberty of raiding PRs tea collection so we pretty much have everything under the sun

If I've forgotten anything let me know, catch you around, the weekend starts soon
