Rather than post on the old thread, which can be found at http://www.fireflyfans.net/thread.asp?b=2&t=24329 I've chosen to start a new one, as it'll be quicker to load. Plus it's an excuse for another forsaken thread and we can never have too many of them.

So pull up a seat at the bar, or if bar stools aren't your thing, there's plenty of sofas, bean bags and hammocks to relax on.

Edit: Since this is a forsaken thread, it needs a pic to start it off, but all I could find was an old WoW wallpaper.

It was either that or Boris, who's blackmailed me into including him anyway.

2: sure thing, I've lined some up on the bar for the early risers.

3: Yeah, I know, I'll do the best I can to help look after the place until he returns.

Mornin' drinkers.

Early Friday morning and also a payday for me, plus I had a really good night last night working the bar, which is just icing on the cake.

it is purely oranges in the orange juice. What is says, is what it is. Unlike "100% Australian Beef" which McDonalds use in their burgers (it's a trademarked name, has no bearing at all on the contents, which i think is beef and beef-substitute brought in from south america).

With most things, store-brand is ok, but on things like hotdogs (and some others, sodas and munchies come to mind) it has to be a known/trusted name.

Actually I had a spare minute so I figured I would say Hey and make sure that someone here remembered my name. Still got alot to do today and with a short day at that (daughter's first school carnival is today and I am taking a few hours off) So hopefully I will get some free time later to check back.

Well the first thing you should know is that it's short for a c**k s**king cowboy (& they've been around forever - well before 'Brokeback Mountain')... they are shots with half butterscotch schnapps then a layer of Baileys on the top half... divine and so very smooth! *licks her lips*... anyone else? ...Tristan?

There's US and OZ, Cowboys and Nipples, Hiatus and Lowatus (I thought it was cute, DTH), right and left-handed drinking for VE, a baby for Maximus, and not one for MSG (although I'm confused by the "Happy Dance"; thought you wanted one), and of course, Kelkhil's bar itself with Kelkhil as a "patron".

Butterscotch IS the greatest flavor ever invented. So keep 'em coming, Nico the great fill-in barkeep, by whatever name you choose to call 'em until I break the place up again.

Oh, and Kelkhil, if you're still about, thanks for installing the trapeze bar from the rafter. I now have a place to hang from in comfort. So when someone tells me to drink up, I can!!

EDIT: Oh, and Maximus Mudder's Milk is on me. We were going to toast earlier anyway. And, hell, Give MSG whatever she wants. My feet are coordinated but I'll join her happy dance if she's willin'.

*Switches the tv to Jtv*

Not normally an electronica fan (beyond some industrial stuff like Ministry), but The Presets gig piques my interest enough since they have an actual drummer, rather than a drum machine.

Ok, first up, JTV is Triple J's venture into tv, basically just a few hours each week they programme stuff on the ABC (normally before and after Rage).

I'm not one for dance music either, but it seemed like a good idea at the time. Right now I'm just listening to Triple J's "Impossible Music Festival" http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/livemusic/line_up.htm

Anyway, I'm just in briefly to see what's new, then I'm off to bed.

Thank you Nico - always thinking of my best interests... Want me to write a letter to Kelkhil to tell him what a terrific job you're doing? Might give you a pay rise?

Oh - Kelkhil, there you are!! Tis so good to see you - did I mention what a fine job Nico is doing while you're busy and all?

Not havin' any idea what time it is anywhere in the world at any given moment makes me appreciate your philosophical moment, MrT, as well as your animated smiley. I have a real hard time with our unbelievably cosmopolitan site trying to figure which end is up. 'Course hanging upside down from a trapeze in the bar doesn't help. But at the end of a hard/long/weird day at the office (notice I didn't say "work"), aside from home there's no place I'd rather be than here.

Nico, is there anymore of that hidden stash of Stroh's Beer left?

If not, mebbe I'll have some ice cream...

Mornin' drinkers (and non drinkers with cool drinks like saspirilla and chocolately-raspberry shakes).

With my mind that is usually on making tasty alcohol drinks, I think that shake would be good with Chambord and Godiva liquors, if/when you need that extra kick in it.

Three Irish carbombs please, in a neat row if you can.

I appear to have been away from the bar scene for so long I have no insight to many of the drinks mentioned here. (Only the other day I learned of the Buttered Cowboy Nipple. Seems like a drink you can only order among close friends who understand you...)
So what besides politically lethal is an Irish Carbomb? And what is a Chernobyl Meltdown besides environmentally lethal?

Jonny - love the video clip.

Irish Carbomb: Half a pint of Guinness, plus a shot glass that is half Bailey's and half Irish whiskey (I like Jameson's, personally). Drop the shot into the half pint of Guinness and chug immediately. Kinda tastes like chocloate milk.

The pipe is filled with my favorite organic substance, my feelings on which are expressed by the late Bill Hicks in my signature.

Not meaning to offend anyone's alcoholic prowess, but Buttery Nipples are pretty much one of the weakest shots out there, the alcohol cannot be tasted at all. Bailey's = 35% alcohol and Buttershots = 15%, so the shot is really only 25%. Still, they do taste good to most people, and at the parties I usually attend, they are good panty-droppers.

Unlike some people, I remember to blow out the flame before swallowing the drink.

As to the contents, I can't go into specifics, as parts of the recipe are a tightly-guarded secret at one of my favourite establishments. I will say however that it's extrememly potent, and very tasty. Just don't let an ignition source near it when it's in proximity to anyone face.

It was just the one exam, because for reasons only known to the lecturer (whose claim to fame is that he once dated B F Skinner's daughter - psych students might recognise that name), chose to have the exam 2/3 of the way through the semester instead of at the end of it.
