haha, see, dang, I was on the wrong page.......I thought you meant he'd belong to both groups that use the rainbow as a sign.

Here are a few I found and thought might be interesting

Amber's Revenge (Cocktail)
Root Beer, Rum, Scotch, Tequila

Baltimore Zoo #2 (Cocktail)
Bacardi 151 Proof Rum, Grenadine, Root Beer, Rose's Lime Juice, Rum, Sour Mix, Tequila, Triple Sec, Vodka

Sasparilla Assassin (Cocktail)
Peppermint Schnapps, Root Beer, Tequila, Whiskey

Black And Brown (Shooter)
Guinness, Root Beer

Root of All Evil (Cocktail)
Pernod Absinthe, Root Beer

What? Waste all that good booze when you puke up the mix..GeeZZ

my interest was that I like rootbeer, plain, and I want to gift soda to camps I might be visiting with, but wasn't sure if they would want rootbeer for a bar application. Couldn't remember anybody ever mixing with rootbeer.

How long would a mug stay frosty on the playa? What if someone handed this to you on Thursday afternoon? I just want to be their dog.

my first paycheck job was at A&W. but it was a regular burger stand then. The rootbeer was on tap though, mixed in a big vat with loads of sugar and their special ingredients. You could still get a half gallon of draft rootbeer. The canned stuff doesn't compare.

Contraption headlights are mounted and wired up. Now it's just re-plumbing the flame effect. Oh, yeah... and the storage box that I decided to add on, but that's easy.

This calls for beer!!

Oh hey, TITWI!!!

(grabs sliding cold one)

I'll post some pics over the weekend, but you've got to wait until the desert to see her all lit up. I think the added accent lighting worked out well. All hidden and indirect lighting. Hope The boobies are shaping up well.

(downs cold one)

'night!

I got the led bulb for the black cat light. I'm thinking of putting some small strong magnets on the bottom so the cat can ride securely. Do you have any metal areas on the contraption LCN?

No, mostly plastic.

Har!

Double sided tape should hold a magnet onto his belly, but most of the metal on the flat areas is expanded grating and won't give much of a hold. I think he'd sit on the seat nicely though.

although the top of the flywheel cover is a possibility as well. Hmmm....
