we had that chat about the bin 707 a while ago remember? I'm still waiting to pop my, turns out, '99.

anyway, gathering that your were a fan of penfolds, I thought I'd open up a bottle of their best and share

Congratulations on the job, Jason... with that, spinning tunes, and part time bartender here you'll be just a little busy.

well... a glass of warm milk and then beddie-bye for Sammy...

I think a round is in order how about....

Lemon Drops

1 oz. Absolut Citron Vodka (Chilled)
1 oz. Grand Marnier
Sugar
Lemon

Pour 1 oz. of Absolut Citron into a shot glass. Marinate a lemon wedge in the Grand Marnier. Then take the wedge out of the Grand Marnier and sprinkle it with sugar. Drink the shot of Absolut then eat lemon wedge.

So what's the New Job?

I just got my first unemployment statement and it looks like If I quit smoking at this incredibly stressful time, don't eat, and don't heat my house I can make it.

geekster · Post by **geekster** » Thu Oct 14, 2004 11:18 pm

From the looks of you, you haven't been eating in a long time and the smoke is just gonna leak out of your head anyway.

Zulegoona · Post by **Zulegoona** » Thu Oct 14, 2004 11:23 pm

Gees your right why I'm already half gone so at least I'll be ahead of the curve in the spiral towards oblivion.

A bright side is a bright side I'll take it.

[monologue]

Geez, is this place a morgue or what? I remember, back in the day, when we used to have a crowd in here 'till freakin' 3 in the freakin' morning. I'd have to volunteer to bartend so tish could slip in a few hours sleep. Now, we got jack.

Back again

Sorry, had a little bout of self pity, all the other kids at the playground are getting jobs I want one too......

I'm back to unrealistic optimism again....

What kind of work do you do?

Zulegoona · Post by **Zulegoona** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 12:17 am

well over the last 10 years it sort of evolved from fabricating exhibit components to what is now called exhibit development tech. brainstorming to come up with the best way to transmit information, interactives that sort of thing. I've been working for the state historical society. Two museums and 26 sights most of witch had visitor centers.

HEY! You guys wanna hang out in the bar, you gotta drink. What'll it be, ladies?

Zulegoona · Post by **Zulegoona** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 12:25 am

Let's see, the first booze I ever got drunk on was Black Velvet Canadian Whisky, took it from my dads bottle in a fruit jar to a party in junior high. I'll have one of those for old time sake.

geekster · Post by **geekster** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 12:27 am

I just poked my head in the door. I am going to tunnel my way to bed and hope nobody peeks into my tent and causes me to reach a definitive state.

Ok, any whisky will do.

Sensei · Post by **Sensei** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 12:32 am

Here ya' go, sailor.

Oh Yeah the only way to drink whisky, Thanks

Sensei · Post by **Sensei** » Fri Oct 15, 2004 12:36 am

I used to like to chase pints of Killian's Red with shots of Wild Turkey. That taste was fantastic. Of course, I didn't mind puking as much back then...

I will be working for UPS in their supply chain area. I am working with open order management. Lots of research and analysis of data. I love this sort of work because I love patterns and such. The pay is good and the benefits are amazing. This side of the UPS business is growing in leaps and bounds. I will actually be working onsite at Intel.
