Since Stu left before I could get a drink, I think I'll make up a tootsie roll. Anyone else want one?

Shot or two of Kahlua, OJ and ice

I hear "Do you like Degs?"

heli wishes another beverage, herding hollywoods is a pain in the fucking ass.

ThePikey · Post by **ThePikey** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:17 pm

D'ye like daegs?

Seriously, you're the *firstest* person in like, ever to figure that out. And I've used this name on other boards, lj, whatnot.

Ranger Genius · Post by **Ranger Genius** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:18 pm

Sounds horrible, sput. Try rootbeer schnapps and OJ..sounds funky, but is surprisingly good.

I'll have a Rum Caucasian.

Ranger Genius · Post by **Ranger Genius** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:19 pm

You're not suppsed to let them do that, Heli.

How about a double of Crown, for starters?

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:19 pm

ouch.

okay.

NTS: don't say the first thing that comes into your mind to Pikey. Good to know.

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:20 pm

I agree, Sput... that sounds awful.

Ranger Genius · Post by **Ranger Genius** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:22 pm

Pike: maybe it's so obvious that it's allowed to pass without comment? Unlikely (since it failed to go unmentioned here), but possible.

Sure. It's not what they did, it's what I didn't let them do. Whiney, pantywaist, "I always get what I want types". Not from me! Ha Ha Ha. Play by the rules or don't play. Funny thing is they are paying me to say no. Shit

There must have been one, a moment, in childhood when it first occurred to you that you don't go on for ever. It must have been shattering--stamped into one's memory. And yet I can't remember it.

sputnik · Post by **sputnik** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:25 pm

Surprisingly enough, it tastes just like a tootsie roll candy

...you understand, we are tied to a language that makes up in obscurity what it lacks in style.

Another curious scientific phenomenon is the fact that the fingernails grow after death, as does the beard.

RG, that moment came pretty early on for me, I think it was in 5th grade science class. I was in a catholic school and everyday the promise of eternal life was pounded into us. And everyday I wondered how it could be. And then I knew. Yet, somehow I still seem to treat life like it'll go on forever.

blue bottle on top shelf of bar starts to bubble and shake, then suddenly explodes. Blue appears sitting in the same spot.

Hi all

Ranger Genius · Post by **Ranger Genius** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:34 pm

Okay, last one, I promise...(lamely) unless I have a really good reason:

"The colors red, blue, and green are real. The color yellow is a mystical experience shared by everybody"--Demolish...

A man breaking his journey between one place and another at a third place of no name, character, population or significance, sees a unicorn cross his pat and disappear. That in itself is startling, but there are precedents for mustical encounters of various kinds, or to be less extreme, a choice of persuasions to put it down to fancy; until--"My God," says a second man "I must be dreaming, I though I saw a unicorn." At which point, a dimension is added that makes the experience as alarming as it will ever be. A third witness, you understand, adds no further dimension but only spreads it thinner, and fourth thinner still, and the moer witnesses there are the thinner it gets and the more reasonable it becomes until it is as thin as reality, the name we give to common experience...."Look, look!" recites the crowd. "A horse with an arrow in its forehead! It must have been mistaken for a deer"....

GuinivereElise · Post by **GuinivereElise** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:34 pm

blue, how are you going to get down from there now?

ThePikey · Post by **ThePikey** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:35 pm

Mmm... nope. I've had *scads* of folks ask me "So. Why 'Pikey'." And then I go "Do you remember the movie 'Snatch'?" and then they say "Oh yeaahhh...".

So... yeah. You two are the first. Truly ye are blessed, or summat.

Hiya Blue!

ThePikey · Post by **ThePikey** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:36 pm

And can I have a Glenfiddich?

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:36 pm

Hmmm, ya know I hadn't really thought about that. Little help?

Ranger Genius · Post by **Ranger Genius** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:38 pm

One bottle of glenfiddich for pike. And LyLo's neighbor's ladder for Blue.

[sheepishly] Oh. sorry. I thought your comment about never hearing it was said with sarcasm. thus my reply. no offense intended, Pikey. I didn't realize you were serious! [/sheepishly]

Snatch is one of my I-can-watch-it-any-time-any-where movies...

I don't think we realized that you thought he was insensed.

Hi Sputnik! How's it going with you today?

Thanks for the ladder RG

climbs down from the top of the bar and walks to the fridge where she deposits some more lemonade, then pours herself a glass from the pre-mixed pitcher

Lydia Love · Post by **Lydia Love** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:41 pm

ha!

I had to sit here wondering who the hell "Lylo" was for a moment.

duh moment for me.

ThePikey · Post by **ThePikey** » Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:42 pm

*I* didn't. But then, I musta skipped over that post. (The Bar moves pretty damn fast)

So, anyways.
*pours out a bit into a shot and sips contentedly*

I'm doing good despite being harangued by this bunch for drinking tootsie rolls tonight.
