Absinthe, sweet absinthe. I also think its a fun topic b/c distilling is illegal in the U.S., however, if you do it you can cut out 75% of the cost of alcohol. You guys could have a hell of an operation if you had a gameplan for dealing with the legal issues. Alas, our goal is NOT to serve the chea...

Looks ambitious, Luce! How do envision engineering the two-story structures? I'm currently thinking steel frame with plywood sides and floors, but the engineering discussion has just begin - the goal is to have something as easy to transport, assemble, and disassemble as scaffolding, but more adapt...

Its about time my two favorite cities came together, so consider this the first public invite to participate in the Black Rock French Quarter - a collection of camps and experiences, in the spirit of the Big Easy.

If Empire had a brewery or distillery, what do you think the labels would look like? There will be a winner for the best design! :D Don't know what it'll be but I'll think of something.
