DOTW 10/23

Post by Barca »

Top ten reasons Going to the Bar is better than Invading Iraq

10. My bartender always greets me as a liberator.

9. Pat Tillman still gets free drinks at the bar.

8. Last night I had three Grasshoppers. In Basra, they were attacked by eighteen hairy sand spiders.

7. For $700 billion, I can buy a lot of house rounds.... top shelf even

6. The insurgents in my bar just want more Jack Johnson on the jukebox.

5. My exit strategy involves a cab and In 'n' Out Burger

4. Happy Hour has nothing to do with a lack of suicide bombers

3. "Stay the Course" just means I don't switch from Gin to Bourbon

2. Pancho and Lefty isn't on a single jukebox in Baghdad

1. They don't serve Booze in Iraq.

What's the etiquette for ordering a dotw? say, if my bartender doesn't know it, which could be the case.

Tell him maybe he'd get tips if he smiled more. Then convince him to go back to Swigmore University while you take over his bartending duties...

Oh!! I love the Stinger. It was Ray Milland's character's drink of choice in the 1948 Film Noir classic The Big Clock.

I have the ingredients on hand, and I'm not afraid to use them!!!

Of course, the drink is stirred or shaken lightly, and served, ungarnished, in a cocktail glass or an old-school champagne saucer.

I ordered that monkey knife fight one a few months back, and had to tell my bartender how to make it. She made it.

If your bartender doesn't know, educate them.
