Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Grumpy_Old_Rossco - 06-29-2008 06:16 AM

OK I am having vodka shots and the drinks are on the house.

So what's your order?


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - windy - 06-29-2008 06:21 AM

I'd like some homemade wine - without the sulphites please? Make it a pinot noir?


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Lestat - 06-29-2008 06:25 AM

Any absinthe going around?


Wine, ew, I never have been able to enjoy wine, I'l drink it, but its a matter of filling a mug and tipping it back in one, it all tastes and smells of vinegar to me, nasty.

Should you be drinking with the dicky ticker Rossco?

As for me, I just got back from an early morning poppy hunt, and got some decent ones, so its a nice birthday pot of pod tea for me this morning Big Grin

You know that is FINALLY legal here!  Yay!


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - windy - 06-29-2008 06:39 AM

Our last wine was an Opus.  Last year it won a bronze medal from Wine Spectator.

We bottle our newest vintage this coming Monday (by we, I mean my husband and his father and brother) It is a family wine.  Home made wine makes all the difference.

Hehe, you have good taste Korrigan Smile

A glass of Reisling, please.
What are you celebrating?


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - DocMartin - 06-29-2008 06:55 AM

Do you have a good lager?


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Max the Bear - 06-29-2008 07:17 AM

I don't drink.

But on THIS occasion --

give me one of those pretty red ones with the umbrella


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Ethel - 06-29-2008 07:20 AM

Yeah, same here... don't usually drink, because it all tastes the same to me, and doesn't taste good.  I do drink whiskey or vodka occasionally, but for the purpose of getting smashed rather than for enjoyment.

So I'll have something brightly coloured with a festive umbrella, too.  And maybe a strawberry on a stick.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Tigger_the_Wing - 06-29-2008 07:24 AM

Yet another teetotaller here; but as it's cyber-booze I'd like one of those tall ones with lots of layers in different colours, please! Big GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig Grin

Wow, Hello everybody,

It's getting crowded here. * Can we all sit on the terras in the shade too? *

And I'd like the "surprise of the house" please. (Hope for something with cherries and umbrella's).

Toast to you all, and to the barman of course!


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Ethel - 06-29-2008 01:18 PM

That's the good thing about a virtual bar - there's always enough seats in the good spots!  And nobody talking overloud, poker machines making godawful noises, or secondhand cigarette smoke.

We should do this more often.  Smile


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - ocampo - 06-29-2008 01:19 PM

I'll have a bottle of tequila, a bottle of sambuca, and a bottle of Pinot Grigio.

Hi Ethel,

Nice to see you here? What are you drinking?

I've no idea what it is in my glas, I asked for the 'surprise of the house'. In a daring mood today, I think, or was it because I did not think. Ahhh I don't know any more.

It tastes good though.Big GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig GrinBig Grin


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - hyke - 06-29-2008 01:24 PM

Hi Ocampo,

Do you mind if we replace you just a little bit more comfortable on the floor? We could also make it softer.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Tigger_the_Wing - 06-29-2008 01:30 PM

Anybody?


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - hyke - 06-29-2008 02:10 PM

No, I'm going for some fresh air.
And cleaning my shoes. (Ocampo.....)
It seems to be winter outside. Love to feel crisp fresh air. After the walk I'd love to bowl with you.

Grumpy tries desperately to express his enthusiasm, but in his state, his attempt to say "Yeah mate I am up for it!" sounds uncannily like "Help! I have fallen and can't reach my bourbon and coke."

I must say you folk all have very attractive ankles.

RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - ocampo - 06-29-2008 03:25 PM

The humour of the WKD comment will be appreciated slightly more by the Brits of the site...

WKD = nasty, syrupy alcopop favoured by angry young people who like to finish the night with a kehab and 8 stitches somewhere on their body.

*useless fact* WKD bottles not only make useful containers, they can often be found in the back of an angry 15-24 year old young man's head.

Do you remember the rules?
If not, I'll repeat:

beer-can-bowling:

A.- take ten cans of beer and arrange them in a triangle.
B.- empty them as fast as you can, choose whatever way seems
suitable to you, but do it without help.
C.- rearrange the empty cans to the same triangle we had before.   Do this also alone, you're allowed to lean on the table with one hand!
D.- Smash your forehead on the table, try to knock over as many cans as you can.
E.- Spill the last drops of beer from each can on your bodyhair, whereever you find some.
F.- Don't drive home!
G.- Don't take advices from your totally drunk friends!
H.- Find a taxi-driver who's willing to take you home.
I.- Surprise your wife/husband with beeing home early(This is not late night my dear, this is early morningBig Grin)
J.- Try to make this smile as natural as possible.
K.- Hope the best.

I work for a subsidiairy to the Evil INBEV that is trying to eat the American Iconic Anheuser-Busch currently.

So Stella Artois, Beck, Leffe are my brands.

RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - hyke - 06-30-2008 09:23 PM

Hi Doc. How is your head? Mine is awfull.
Is it the beer?
Is it the suprise mix of the house (Rossco, what the heck was in it?....)
Is it the beginning of a migraine?
Is it my teeth?
Is it my hormones that seem to have synchronized with Ocampo's? (never socialize with women with hormones, bad bad idea, especially in a bar)

It is probably all of that. Mixed with my double persona and double lack of sleep.

So maybe we should double the beercans again. Hitting my head on the table might help.

Hi Doc. How is your head? Mine is awfull.
Is it the beer?
Is it the suprise mix of the house (Rossco, what the heck was in it?....)
Is it the beginning of a migraine?

Is it my hormones that seem to have synchronized with Ocampo's? (never socialize with women with hormones, bad bad idea, especially in a bar)

It is probably all of that. Mixed with my double persona and double lack of sleep.

So maybe we should double the beercans again. Hitting my head on the table might help.


A few suggestions/thoughts:
What is my head? Is there a thing like that and what is it's connection to ME?
It's not the beer, it's probably the wrong beer.
Never try surprise mixes! At least if you want to keep concious.
Migraine is in fact the no'1 excuse of women.
I'm not goin' to check your teeth now.
Let me think a while about all the advantages and disadvantages of women without hormones.
Double persona and double lack of sleep shouldn't be treated by beer!
Try hitting the table on your head, that should do a better job.

He staggers, spins, weaves, and is a testament to the natural effect of too many bourbon and cokes, shots of vodka and and a gargle blaster........but Barman Grumpy is still serving and has not spilt a drop.

Years of drinking alcohol has trained me not to spill a drop of the precious fluid.

Yes there was a time that Grumpy liked vodka one of two ways in shot glasses or in stomach.

Now is on a two drink self imposed maximum and not happy. But then that is only in the really world he says swiping the cyber drinks that his patrons leave unattended for too long.....

Right! The Belge are nice people, they are funny, strong and devout.
But to come back to the original subject of the thread: They don't know how to brew beer!
And that's of course known all over Europe. And it's of course objectively right.

***Grumpy has a word with the three doormen to take out an interlopper "Stella Ruby" and help her reach the sidewalk. (Thanks Lestat, PikaJedi and Flardox)***

OK Grumpy decides it is Kareoke time.
Now guys what songs would you like to sing or have other's sing. Don't be shy (None of us will remember tomorrow). Youtube cues are welcome.

I will start off proceedings singing Kevin Bloody Wilson's "Last Lager Waltz" (Not on Youtube but if I was inclined I am sure I could find the lyrics on Google). Besides my Kareoke machine has all songs, artists and genres covered.

I dob Not Your Average Joe, Doc Martin and Tigger for "Macarena"
Max is then singing "What a wonderful World" - Louis Armstrong style.

After my song I am collecting the oodles of charm, sophistication, sex appeal and wit, and sidling up to Alectrum. (We gotta talk details of the house cut for her hustling. What? You think this place runs on goodwill? With a name like "Grumpy's Bar?) Tongue Smile

That better be a pretty big fumigator, Tigger.  Move up, I should be in there too!

(I usually don't go to the doctor when I have a cold, I just stay sick for six weeks.  This time I wised up and went, got some antibiotics and it's clearing up at lightning speed.  Woot!)


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Tigger_the_Wing - 07-08-2008 08:46 AM

*Moves up to make room for Ethel, Silver and ocampo*

I thought that colds are caused by viruses; and that antibiotics only work on bacteria?

So, did/do you have a cold, or a bacterial infection?

*Tigger is even more confused than usual*


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Ethel - 07-08-2008 10:37 AM

That's what I thought too - which is why I'e never bothered going to a doctor with it!  I think maybe these things START as a cold, and then while I'm down the bacteria moves in - would explain why the person who gave me the cold gets better six weeks before I do.  Last year the lot attacked me at once, and it was like a bus ride through an infectious diseases pamphlet - cold, flu, pneumonia, conjunctivitis, you name it, I had it.

*Tigger moves further away so as not to catch Ethel germs*

Barkeep - what have you got that'll kill germs?


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Joker - 07-08-2008 10:54 AM

If you're still sober, try a flaming shot. If you're unsteady, though, have a few fingers of whiskey. Tongue


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Tigger_the_Wing - 07-08-2008 12:00 PM

If I weren't unsteady I would be after a finger of whiskey; on the other hand, I wouldn't be worrying about the germs any more. Or anything else, for that matter!

In our place we use Australian Tee Tree Oil to fight viruses (a few drops deep into the throat)

If that doesn't work, a pint of cheap wodka could provide you at least a few hours of sleep.

Carefull doing that with the tee tree oil Doc.  It might destroy your gut flora if you swallowed it, and that would probably be a hospital job.  You dilute it in water, don't you?

Tetanus - I have to have my sons' blood tests done- to see it they need a booster of tetanus and MMR.  (Their pediatrician gives me a prescription for a blood test to indicate immunity levels - they have high levels when they get tested and therefore avoid boosters).

I had a tetanus a few years ago - a booster - and I felt like I was hit by a huge truck afterwards, for almost a week.  Even during I could feel it moving through my veins.

Kim certainly is allowed to drink whatever she likes. I am not quite sure, but the initial thought of Skittles plunged into Vodka, especially a... bargain brand... like Smirnoff... was off-putting.

I may try it, but certainly not with Smirnoff. I suppose I am a bit snobbish.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Lestat - 07-23-2008 12:25 AM

Skittles? never tried that one, but soaking a quarter oz of chronic herb in vodka for a month or two, green dragon as its called, now thats something to try, looks like alexander litvinenko's teacup in color, but two shots and its 'lights out, do not pass go, do not collect 200 squid on the way'

Not so much 'hair of the dog' as possibly a full fur pelt and PETA burning my house down. I don't even know how much I drank (I had 4 shots one after the other... sambuca, tequila, Aftershock and some measly 20% ***... the fact my mates insulted me by putting a 20% shot in front of me meant I had to down them all. That is my excuse and I will stick to it) because I haven't been out with the boys in about 2 months, so everyone was buying me drinks.

I didn't wake up next to a pizza box though I have been getting pakora burps all day. My jeans stink of spilled wine and I've had far too many faces in my cleavage. For whatever reason my socks were being used as duelling swords at one point, and I put on Kylie's "Your Disco Needs You" when it was my turn at the jukebox. In a rocker bar whilst every other song is Metallica and Iron Maiden.

I already had two beers tonight.  My head's spaced.  Pretty darn interesting conversation with a coworker who's been married and divorced three times.  The mind boggles (she who's longest semi-quasi-sexual relationship ever was a year and a half).

No skittle to wash down the alcohol for Joe. A good dose of Dutch courage for Jodes prior to singing Summer Nights duet with yours truly. Energia the best way to top off two beers is with a third and where were we....gossip from a divorced three times lady. I will keep half an eye on the floatsum and jetsum who walk in whilst you tell me all about it but the kareoke machine is charging up so Jodes and I are about to hit the stage.

I have to go out a while tosses keys to Jodes and makes Tigger responsible behind the Bar. I think the bar is safe.....like anyone would mess with these two lovely ladies.

I maintain that I was strangled in a past life with yarn.  There is NOTHING else in the world that offends my sensibilities more.  I can touch things once they are knitted, but when it is just yarn, EEK!

Mr. Korrigan tried to teach me to knit.  He stopped, once I stabbed him with the knitting needle.  Hey, it got the point across.

I am honestly no more sure of my neurotype than I am of anything else.  

Hey, are you blocking the fire exit?  Reminds me of this...

I was at this casino minding my own business, and this guy came up to me and said, "You're gonna have to move, you're blocking a fire exit." As though if there was a fire, I wasn't gonna run. If you're flammible and have legs, you are never blocking a fire exit.

Um, those are such pretty bottles and mirrors on the wall.

Could I please have a glass of low-fat milk? Not too cold, please.

Has anyone seen a bear around here recently?

RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - hyke - 07-26-2008 10:33 PM

Bit sad,

Saw QD has left. Saw Ethel got hit again. It's been very hot and sticky for a few days. There are quite a few papers somewhere in the house I have to deal with.
Was away with the girls for a few days. Have to find my way in my own house again. Find my way next to my love. Which is not allways that easy.

On the brink of meltdown a few times last days. But it did not happen.

But since a few hours we've got nice thunderstorms. My head is a bit clearing up. Geat to see the lightning and hear the thunder.

You do appear to be a lot better since the last time I met you.

Let's go and hit some beercans. Is there a better way to welcome your wife in this bar???Big GrinBig GrinBig GrinCoolRolleyesTongueBig GrinBig GrinBig Grin

Blue Shark Cocktail

Vodka
Tequila
Blue Curacao

Per Drink

3/4 oz Vodka
1/2 oz Tequila
Several Dashes of Blue Curacao

Serving Instructions

Combine all ingredients in a cocktail shaker with cracked ice
Shake well
Strain into chilled old-fashioned glass


There are also land shark cocktails, and something called a "****** up shark" which just evokes the image of a heavily inebriated Tiger shark too shnockered to accurately attack a turtle...

It's Monday morning at work and I'm sneaking out for a liquid lunch.  Grumpy, do you know how to make Long Island Iced Tea?


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - DocMartin - 07-28-2008 03:22 PM

I'm sure he don't.
Here's the recepie:

1 part vodka
1 part tequila
1 part rum
1 part gin
1 part triple sec
1 1/2 parts sweet and sour mix
1 splash Coca-Cola®

Mix ingredients together over ice in a glass. Pour into a shaker and give one brisk shake. Pour back into the glass and make sure there is a touch of fizz at the top. Garnish with lemon.

You start your week with this, Kimber?

Respect!


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - kimberkara - 07-28-2008 03:27 PM

mmmm... all that mixed together tastes like punch.  I highly recommend you try this delicious drink.  Cut the sour mix in half is my only change to the recipe.  I'm getting heart burn just thinking about it!  
Doc, I wait till noon - so I'm not a drunk, right? Wink

Of course I do. I am the premier barman around AFF. That is why you pay me so much is surcharges on your bill and put up with slightly watered down drinks.
I quite like in the shotglass

1 part Kahlua
1 part Tia Maria
1 part Bailey's Irish cream.

In fact lining up free B-52's.

Let's get this party started!


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - kimberkara - 07-28-2008 03:49 PM

Hook me up!  I'm gonna have to start working soon and need a boost. If I tip well can you keep the water out of my drinks please?

Social Security on the phone for what seemed like an hour!  Nice woman on the phone though.  I had to explain why a high arousal environment is a bad place for me to work.  I think I may have told her too much because she stopped me after a bit and said she had the geist of it.  Smile

She also said that drawing up business plans qualifies as looking for work, so that's good news.

A confession, a question and an apology:
I apologize I go off topic and off mood,
I want to tell you, last night my sweet husband (Docmartin) invitet me to join you, happy beautiful people.
"you could have a drink and a dance with me" he said.
"well" I answered "It seems like on some aspects, i'm more aspie then you... I don't know how to join in... when a thred has a topic, and I have some knowledge\expirience\opinion on this topic, I know what to say.
But here, there's no topic really, is there? other then----socializing???
I mean, it's great! I wish I could have done it soo well like you aspies..."
and now the question: how do you do it?
how do you know what to say, when there's no topic?
and how come aspies do it better then a middle person (me)?

The thing about AS is that we aren't actually bad at socialising in an overall sense, we're just bad at socialising within NT groupings. Get a group of us together, and we're just as capable of random chat as anyone else.

The only thing I have noticed is that there tends to be a much greater divide between the two - socialising tends towards all-out silliness, whereas discussion tends towards intense studies.

Of course, that could just be the culture of this site - who known? *grins*

You see, the thing is, to me all this lovely chit-chat is like a secret-language, even in my mother-language, even in a group of middle people (like myself).
I can do it for 5 minutes, but after that I simply loose it...
If the light conversation has a topic, I can enjoy it and be in it.
I love joking, it's not like I'm always serius.
I also love making silly faces, sing and dance silly songs and dances.
But a group conversation that is all about socializing...
I feel like looking at you people dancing, trying in vain to figure out the dance-steps ...
Well, like I said - sometimes it looks like I'm more aspie then aspiies...

Oh, and martin, about the beer - right now I feel more like some light- refreshing cocktail with lemon Smile


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - DocMartin - 07-30-2008 11:35 AM

The thing about AS is that we aren't actually bad at socialising in an overall sense, we're just bad at socialising within NT groupings. Get a group of us together, and we're just as capable of random chat as anyone else.

The only thing I have noticed is that there tends to be a much greater divide between the two - socialising tends towards all-out silliness, whereas discussion tends towards intense studies.

Of course, that could just be the culture of this site - who known? *grins*


You see, the thing is, to me all this lovely chit-chat is like a secret-language, even in my mother-language, even in a group of middle people (like myself).
I can do it for 5 minutes, but after that I simply loose it...
If the light conversation has a topic, I can enjoy it and be in it.
I love joking, it's not like I'm always serius.
I also love making silly faces, sing and dance silly songs and dances.
But a group conversation that is all about socializing...
I feel like looking at you people dancing, trying in vain to figure out the dance-steps ...
Well, like I said - sometimes it looks like I'm more aspie then aspiies...

Oh, and martin, about the beer - right now I feel more like some light- refreshing cocktail with lemon Smile


It's OK, really! I just make a joke (or ask for a pretend drink) and go away again.

It might look as if we are all here all the time having fun, but most of the time we aren't really here at all! Big Grin

If we were, we would be happily talking to the table, the wall, own shoes, person's opposite's navel and stimming unconsciously and talking about "logical, interesting things, observations, interests or perceptions on the deep and meaningfuls.....anyone not on the spectrum would think us all nutters.

Doc, Rossco's navel keeps joshing my sandals for being so long. Would you please help me explain to Rossco's navel that it's not their fault? I have to wear over-sized sandals because I have wide feet.

Besides hearing my aspie son say, "I have an idea" a favorite thing he says is  "Can I say something random?" The random thought or topic is free-association at it's best I think.  This is one of the only times that my aspie son veers away from his special interest...

Can I have something random to drink? Please, with sugar on top?

Not really celebrating. Lets call it recovering.

No not funny, But thanks the coffee is great. The scotch even better. Nice to bring the second servings yourself. I spilled half of what was in the cups. (Tried to walk on high heels to cheer everyone up... OK it was a funny sight. I'll keep to tiptoeing from now on)

OK, what do we have here?
Quite a nice establishment.
Seems that people left it not long ago.
The lights are on, glasses are half full on the tables.
I will clean up a little and then I will try if those tabs on the bar hold what their promising.

Maybe we'll just sit down and have a couple of drinks alone.
All the tabs are working, all the bottles are full. I could try to fix you a B52, before this
tequila will kill me.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - DocMartin - 08-01-2008 02:45 PM

Oh, I didn't mean that.
Maybe I'm not the best choice as a barman.
Something went terribly wrong with that drink.
Why did she have to break the glass?
Why is she lying under the table?
What are all those strange voices?
Where am I?
Did we get caught in cyberspace?
Why can I see myself sitting on that table with Hyke like the day before yesterday?
How comes I can pass walls without feeling anything about it?
Those additional dimensions drive me hyper crazy.
I shouldn't have tried that Pangalactic Gargle Blaster.
At least not the second one.
Somebody already gave a similar advice.
Why am I 42 all the time?
And why me at all?

All of you who want to eat virtually with me, Welcome.
It's cauliflower with or without sauce, sliced and baked potatoes, and something nifty with cheese (don't know what yet). There will probably be a cucumber salad too.
Rossco, I put my last bit of money on the bar and I take a bottle of white wine to go with the food. Don't worry it will cover it. And it is in euro's.

For those who won't join me,

Grumpy: sorry I got here late, got held up in traffic. Some goose in a white car was stalled at the lights. Seemed to be banging his head on the steering about something. Anyway....

I'll have a couple of cans of XXXX Gold. If not, then a couple of Vic Bitter.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - DocMartin - 08-10-2008 12:04 PM

Oh, I was just thinking to wich bar to go.
Just finished lunchbreak, could need some Jaegermeister.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Grumpy_Old_Rossco - 08-10-2008 01:52 PM

Well three very welcome customers. Jager, Long Island Tea and a XXXX, so what are the rest of you having. No there you are. I might have my usual. Bourbon and coke, with vodka shot spacers.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Lestat - 08-10-2008 03:24 PM

That jagermeister stuff is great, only time I've ever had it was when a mate brought a bottle back from the dam, I don't think you can get it over here in the UK :/

A nice mix I tried was layering a shot of jager over a shot of absinthe, try it some time, it warms you up all the way down, and gets you pissed FAST Big Grin

Another good one is tequila, a big dash of fresh lime juice, and top the rest up with soda water, float a few slices of lime in it and some freshly grated off lime peel. I don't have a name for it, but its my favourite drink in the summer, when its hot.

My last recipe that I know how to make, is taking a leaf out of the book of prohibition era ireland, back then when alcohol was banned and the oirish lot weren't drinking that lethal poteen stuff they used to brew, the intoxicant of choice was ether, believe it or not, and it burns drank neat, back before the filth took my lab, I tried a 'cocktail' of half diethyl ether (non-peroxidised of courseTongueBig Grin) and half vodka, down one of those and immediately such on an ice cube to stop the burn.

No hangover at all, very dissociative, and doesn't mes my digestion up like alcohol tends to do, only disadvantages are its as flammable as the devil's flatulence, low boiling point so it stinks to high heaven, and it has a tendency to form peroxides and hydroperoxides, that are VERY brisant, sensitive primary explosives, takes about 5-10mg to obliterate a piece of glassware (and you can just bloody bet it'l be your most expensive, brand new spinning band column, chromatography column or soxhlet extractor if it gets the chance haha)

So many fun possibilities where alcohol comes into the picture, it can be turned into so many different related psychoactives, nearly all of them more fun than the original alcoholSmile

Am I ever gonna get my Ninja Turtle? It IS a real drink. Here's the recipe:

  • fill an 8 to 12 oz glass half full of ice cubes
  • add 1 oz gin
  • add 2 oz blue curacoa
  • fill remainder with fresh squeezed orange juice
  • stir



There is another variant that uses Hawaiian Punch, but me no likie that one.

Proverbs, 45%, Dep. of practical physics, University of Jerusalem:

Alcohol could lead to an astonishing new expierience of gravity.
The following steps are significant:
1.: Change in the expierience of your own gravity. The gravity of earth and other objects stays constant.
2.: Earth changes it's revolving speed according to the amount of alcohol in your blood.
3.: Your bodymass becomes about twice the mass of earth, and you're revolving slower than earth and in the opposite direction.
4.: At the very moment when the ground hits your nose, everything turns back to normal, except of your brain that keeps revolving inside your head through a very unstable axis.

I can't make fun of you because I'm doing the same thing! Actually, I found out about the Ninja Turtle cocktail whilst trolling through Google Images for a pic of a Ninja Turtle I could Photoshop into my new avatar. That led me to the In-the-Spirit Cocktail Recipe Index (with pictures), where I've been studying the pretty pictures and exotic ingredients for about a week (can anyone say, "new special interest"? Wink). I totally forgot about Wikipedia </facepalm>.

Also, I don't drink alcohol irl, except for:

  • 1 sip of red wine at a wedding reception when I was 12;
  • half an ounce of Schnapps when I was 15;
  • one swig of beer from a bottle an uncle gave me when I was 18 (which I spit out because it tasted vile Tongue)

Grand total: less than 1 oz.

So, a toast to virtual research for what to order in a virtual bar. Cheers, doctorboy!

What!?! It's the menu, folks. Just the menu!

Barkeep! I need a Cold Shower! Make it a double.

I'll have 17 Jager Bombs, and when you prepare them, please do so on a table covered with dry ice. I'll set up a meter stick and video camera so I can measure the locations and velocities of each shot glass.

And before you make tip the first shot glass into the Red Bull, I will need to measue the mass of each filled glass.

That's nothing; my laundry machine has 90 degrees. That's at least what they told me at the place where I bought it and they said that there's no problem in operating the machine at 90°.
I tried that at home...ONCE.
The result was, that all the water got spilled out instead of washing my laundry, and the drum hit the inner reinforcement frame in such a way, that I had the whole machine to get fixed for an astronomical price.
Never believe them when they talk to you about degrees!

40 degrees.

Thanks for the Blue Lagoon, Rossco!

I wonder what I'll try next? Let's see... *speaks aloud whilst browsing menu*

Too late for a Happy Youth Tongue. I could go for these, though: Naughty but Nice . . Beach Blonde . . Between the Sheets. Mmmmmm, fantastic!. Should I go with Wild Love or a Sloe Comfortable Screw? Both! Yeah, that's the ticket! Set the Juice Loose . . All Night Long. Finish with a Screaming Orgasm or two. Hehehe.  Vanilla Creme Shooter ... Ooooo, a Slippery Nipple sounds ... yummmm.

*stops talking and notices the whole bar staring at me*

What!?! It's the menu, folks. Just the menu!

*sighs*

Barkeep! I need a Cold Shower! Make it a double.

Also, send a Perfect Day to Korrigan, a Screaming Orgasm to ocampo (tell her it's from "the cowgirl"), and get doctorboy one of whatever he wants.
Also, a Fluffy Duck for this chap .

Cheers, mates!

Wish I could get hold of dry ice round here though, I've heard they sell it in superstores in the states, and it makes this aspie scientist jealous as hellTongue

That glass looks like the pics of cherenkov radiation from nuclear reactors I've seen in old science books with that blue glow, you haven't been eating sushi with any russian spooks lately have youWink

Well, seeing as I've been away a day or two, I best make up for it, barkeep, a barrel of your finest ale please my good man, and a vodka and codeine syrup too.

I read recently about red bull, apparently the combination of taurine and caffeine has been shown to be quite cardiotoxic, I love the smell and taste of red bull, but I can't get away with drinking any more than a sip or two, as caffeine hates me, but I'd personally avoid it in future after reading what I read.

Uggh, I'm having one of those days today, damn hyperstimulation, I feel like I'm being poisoned by my own adrenaline, so whatever you got, and make it strong.

Adrenaline and alcohol don't go together well.
Get a tomato juice.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Lestat - 08-24-2008 01:06 PM

Meh, I can't eat veg, any of it, its more or less my only pet autie hypersensitivity, I don't seme to get any of the sensory overload people talk of, apart from a little when I am forced to be in company for long with some people, but it all gets physical, tachycardia, anxiety, difficulty breathing, the works.

Large quantities of opiates/alcohol sort it out though, sadly most of my doctors are knobs, and don't want to know, but sooner or later, the one or two decent ones are bound to come back from holiday, this week I think, so hopefully some bugger will decide not to brush it off as 'part of being autistic'

Veg? ew, disgusting, abominable stuff, Rossco wouldn't like it if I started drinking that stuff in his bar either, I would be puking all overTongue


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Grumpy_Old_Rossco - 08-24-2008 01:42 PM

I second the trampoline unless we simply remove Flar's stool - he can't keep falling off it if we don't allow him back on!

Alaskan Amber, please!
I got back Sunday night from California (Esalen is awesome!!!!) and am leaving again for California Sat morning.  And my sister, brother-in-law and their grandson are camping out at my place--they're visiting my nephew and wife, who just had a baby.  And I've got a pile-up of stuff at work to catch up on and do ahead since I'm gone next week.  AAAAAARRRGGHH!

I will cope, I will I will I will, lol

Thank you in advance, Grumpy

Since Grumpy re-railed the RichardL thread, I guess I'll have to take
my cheese here to the bar.

Barkeep, I'l like a three blind mice eating a block of mouldy cheese.

No charge!


Those trampolines are very imprecisely. Do you want him to bounce through the whole bar without control?
I'd prefer taking a soft mattress.

Some one suggested I might have been acting a little out of character recently. And so I promised myself I'd behave better; that I wouldn't argue or get into any more flame wars.
But logging on to AFF this evening I've been hard pressed to find a current thread where people aren't fighting.
What's going on? Is there something in the water?

Alright folks, it's been fun, but I'm seriously considering fucking off now.

And who's going to fix things? Magical elves?

AFF is the responsibility of every single AFF member. In fact, to go a step further, AFF is every single AFF member.

If there's a problem with AFF, then the problem is us - and we're the ones that have to take responsibility for fixing things.

I've seen enough cries of "x is disrespectful", "y is a bully", and "everyone but me is always fighting" to last me a lifetime.

Enough is enough - the conflicts are our fault, and it's about time we started facing up to that.

So, to everyone reading this, myself included:

The problem with AFF is YOU.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Tigger_the_Wing - 08-29-2008 08:20 AM

Sorry EvilZakkie. I looked in the box.



I'm right out of magical elves. Sad




RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - DocMartin - 08-29-2008 09:40 AM

I think (hey, everybody should concratulate me for that) :

1. When the bar first opened it was good to have it in the 'general' members only forum (remember?).

2. The time has come to move it from an actually meant to be very serious part to this "playground".

3. EZ is right, that the way AFF looks is the responsibility of each member. It sure doesn't do anything good, if the people who actually make it a good place take their leave because of individual incidents and because of a few users who love to get into every possible fight.

4. To me AFF is the most important forum, even if I don't participate much in discussions and arguments. I still have problems with this after very bad expieriences in other places.
Aff is a very important source of information and platform for dialogue wich shouldn't be dried out.

5. In addition I love to go to the smaller and more intimate places, to be in contact with good friend I got to know here.

6. no elves, no witchcraft we

Free Drinks whilst we mourn a few more people leaving.
I will get in contact with them all but do admit that whilst I do agree with EvilZakkie on this point, I can see how sometime life (the forum included) can go through a bad patch. I know that when this sort of stuff goes down it is very easy to look at it in absolutes. Life is not like that though and neither is this place.
Recharge your batteries, take time out if you have to, if you feel burnt out ease back.
Feel free to talk to me and I will promise straight talking and I will listen. That is what Bartenders are for. All I ask is a tip at the counter.
There are some really great people here. There always has been. There always will be. If you leave temporarily we will be here and wait and I will pour you a welcome back drink.
For those who are still focussed on the AA argument, it is over now. We all saw what was said and I guess we all know where we all stand on that issue and are likely to stand on other issues. If for no other reason, it was good to have that resolution and that the thread has been locked. I think we can put it behind us.

Finish that up and I will shout another round of Sangrias....mmmm!

Confession,

From the penguindlub thread I thought to remember that swearing between triangular brackets would be bleeeped.

So I used triangular brackets to use a dutch word that could not be used in english on this forum.

I put the brackets the wrong way.

And if Flardox wants to drink IRL, it isn't for US to enforce the rules.

Sometimes I see a lil too much busybodying, on a subtle level, going on here.

That said, Barman, I think I'l take it easy on the booze today, I've been giving it a pounding IRL lately.

Free Drinks all around.

Been a hell of a time and those of us still here may need a few.

I want you all to know how much you all mean to me. This thread is bloody awesome and I love the way you all embraced it.

I want you guys to know if any of you are having it tough about this time or anything at all do get in contact with me. I am not overly hard to find and many people here have my email. Aside from that rossco or Sir_Les_Patterson are my usernames and I am not hard to find elsewhere too.

Anyhow regardless of what is to come in the future don't stress things will work themselves out one way or another and if they get too tough get onto me and just vent. I will listen and won't expect brave faces.

Hell of a ride and hell of a membership. A toast "To you guys the lifeblood of AFF"

He didnt have to tread carefully, but spamming in pms and causing a lot of stress under the instruction of zakkie (who has now finally admitted it) was way too far.

I see. Well, I don't see why spamming was necessary. When I told him to be careful, he said he was old and too set in his ways to change. By that, I thought he meant that he was going to offend fellow members on purpose with posts. I guess I'll just have to wonder what exactly he was spamming in PMs.

Without PM, I don't know who/how to ask to revisit that - what I think were unusually mitigating circumstances. Pika was very supportive of AFF and in the last days, protective of Amy and Gareth -in public and private - but was misguided about why threads were being closed.  Some people got confused and paranoia abounded.  Emotions were high and I fell it had to have been a sad misunderstanding during a confusing time. If someone in authority could ask Pika I think things could be straightened out.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Quick_Duck - 09-23-2008 08:11 PM

I do feel sorry for Pika; he got caught in the middle; was banned from AFF; and has now unregistered from the Spectrumites forum. He has nowhere to hang his hat. He does have an account on WP if anyone wants to contact him; but is not posting much over there to my knowledge. He was very supportive of Gareth and Amy both publicly and privately and so alienated the Spectrumites; but also managed to upset the AFF admin enough to get banned here too.  I think he’d be a great asset to the site; and I’d very much like to see him return.  
You could try emailing Gareth (gareth@garethnelson.com) but I don’t know how easy it would be to revisit this.

LOL! I wish...

That photgraph was taken after four hours during which various doctors, nurses orderlies and sundry onlookers (not to mention the earlier efforts of my friend, my husband and I) had failed to shift the flippin' thing.

Various oils and lotions had been applied and he had been tortured with the old 'bucketful of ice' method.

In the end he was taken into an emrgency treatment/minor surgery room and a security guard built like the incredible hulk twisted the spring open just enough so that his finger could be pulled free.

Indeed!

My daughter's best friend twisted her ankle at school and, as neither parent could be contacted, I took her to the hospital. In A&E they examined her, gave her a pair of crutches and sent us off for X-rays down the maze of criss-crossing and twisting corridors.

She had removed her trainer and her foot had swollen so much it was obvious it would never go back on unless I could disentangle the knots she had put in the laces. So I was busily untying as we walked to the Radiography Department.

When we arrived, friend says "You come here a lot, don't you?"

I answered "Well, yes... but how did you know?"

Her reply? "We have just walked all the way from Emergency and you haven't looked up once to see where we are!"

Today I spent 3 hours 30 mins at A & E with a suspected broken toe. *OUCH!!*Sad
(I kicked the sofa while playing with the kidsShy).

The doctor was certain that I'd at least fractured it; but after a trip to the x-ray department it was found not be broken just bruised and very swollen.Sad

RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Mars Mariner - 08-31-2009 07:05 PM

Please give WFM my regards.  (We have the "Mars" thing in common)  As for my role in this whole debacle, I think that Illogical Conundrum should have been banned sooner, and much of this would have been avoided.  I still think that gang-ups are not a good form of social control, and lead to a decline in any culture, even if the motive might be one that is understandable.

The lady involved probably had some issues that could have been handled by moderators politely asking her to decline from forum membership.  A formal ban would have been avoided.  I think that she was herself manipulated by the other part involved.  However, I also see that I was not understanding of the fear that WFM experienced.  Personally, I was too blinded by the fact that I was glad that he was gone to see things from the perspective of WFM, which was a decided blindness on my part at the time.  I am deeply sorry for that.

As for the others, I wish them well on their new website.  I have no wish to join, but I do wish them well.  I think that we can cooperate on civil rights issues, and agree to part when it comes to having separate forums.  Give them my regards, and tell them I said good luck.

Who is Grumpy? Why is he banned? Was he liked? He seemed to post a bit and seemed to be well enough liked. Posts seem to be OK. Why was he banned?


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Pakrat - 10-10-2009 03:15 PM

There was a big argument about the merits or not of Alcholics Anonymous and the 12 Step programme and that's how it started.

Steady, Flardox...I don't think Interloper realises this board is not intended as a support board.

Interloper, we do not remove the threads and posts of a banned person, unless there is a complaint against that thread or post in particular, and even then subject to circumstance. Ross was, and is, a good friend of mine, but he got involved in a fight with one of the owners of the site and was banned - as was I, believe it or not, almost exactly a year and a month ago. Now look, I'm a modmin here - funny world, eh? Tongue

Ross didn't start fights, but he was good at spotting the undertone in a comment and thread and recognising when someone was being subtly spiteful - we had a couple of very nasty pieces of work here, the kind who you can never pin down as making an attack, but seems to have something...off... in a lot of their posts.

I want Ross back here, but it's not likely to happen. Actually, you'll find he has a great deal of support from the more... veteran members.

Well, I'm going to raise a toast to a good friend, in real life as well as teh intawebz-

Here's to you, Grumpy! (He's sitting next to me as I type! Wink )

The 'fight' was complicated and a lot of people left, not all forced out.

There is a huge support element to this site, simply because of the kinds of people who are and have been members, but it is primarily supposed to be for real-life activism. To that end, Ross and I are very grateful that it brought us together, as we are able to achieve so much more than we would have achieved without that unity.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Pakrat - 10-11-2009 09:44 AM

Tigger, I really miss Ross on this forum. He is a bonza little Aussie battler as we would say here. Yes, there were a lot of elements to the fight and I think it all got blown very much out of proportion. Some other people showed their true colours though and I hoped I learnt something from the whole shemozzle.

Ross also has an incredibly clever turn of phrase and his lampoons of some of the sillier comments by a few members were utterly hilarious!


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Interloper - 10-11-2009 11:44 AM

I am sorry people.
I don't know the situation and it seems far more complex than I can appreciate.
He had a fight with the owner of the site but was a nice bloke.
He was banned and has a banned account yet the Moderators want him back.
He was obviously opinionated and mocking yet (if that was what the "turn of phrase" meant) but seemed to be well thought of.
A lot of stuff does not make much sense to me, nor add up, but then I simply don't know and was "shooting from the hip", so my apologies Flardox, PikaJedi, Pakrat, Chosen, Tigger and everyone I have upset with my uninformed comments. I will take Flardox's advice and STFU.

A lot of stuff does not make much sense to me, nor add up, but then I simply don't know and was "shooting from the hip", so my apologies Flardox, PikaJedi, Pakrat, Chosen, Tigger and everyone I have upset with my uninformed comments. I will take Flardox's advice and STFU.


heh, when you put it like that it does sound kinda strange, but still.

It's one of those things where you had to be there - and when he was nasty, it was justified.

Don't worry about it too much; there was no way you could have predicted the, shall we say influence and popularity, that a long banned member still holds.

Speaking to Ross here; if you do want to come back, you'll have my support and many others for your unbanning.

Interloper you are ok.
Ross is a good person and I miss him being here. When he left I thought he closed the place. I wanted to respect that. Grumpys Bar is just not the same without him here. And I believe he would be welcomed back by many of us.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Pakrat - 10-11-2009 03:15 PM

Yes, I wish he could come back. The people he told off are no longer here so it would be much better for him if he wanted to return and was allowed to be unbanned. We miss you, Rossco.

looks like he was banned, look at the OP


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - skyblue1 - 12-26-2010 06:10 PM

Nah, he is the member known as Bloke. Hasnt been here in a while. Must have wreaked the damage he wished and left again.

I am just picking at him in case he reads this.

Of course with all the rain parts of Australia are getting; he may be treading water.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Bloke - 06-07-2011 05:09 PM

Oh I did not wish to wreak damage but pull up a pew and tell me about life whilst I lend you my ear and make appreciative noises. I will shine the glasses and dust the old empty bar and remember and laugh about happy times here and of patrons fair and kind long left. Also of wild parties and drunken debauchery and times when the drinks flowed in the same consistency as the infectious silliness.
You my friend may drink my finest and best on the house.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - skyblue1 - 06-07-2011 05:25 PM

Errr, we sure could use a barkkep around this dusty joint


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Bloke - 06-07-2011 05:26 PM

BY the way if anyone wants to take over from an old crotchety bartender and make a go of a once beautiful establishment them have at it.
Invite in the silliest cyber-alcoholics you can, keep them drunk and humour their ways.
Make this place your own and in your own style.
Grumpy's Bar was a thing of the past and what it could be in the future will not be the same but could be all you would have it be.

Love

Grumpy

Grumpy comes in and looks at the bar and grumbles. He ambles over to AspieGrrl and mumbles about keys to the safe, and secret cellar. He eyes off the patrons and says something about the new crowd being a drunken lot like the old and wondering if the bar will survive it. He says he is glad to have retired and not have to put up with such silliness. As a parting gift he leaves a juke box to be bought in to play your favourite party tunes and says that he won't miss the loud music and silly chatter.



He mumbles something about a bar tab and surreptitiously hands AspieGrrl a bit of cash


He self-consciously mumbles thanks to AspieGrrl and grumbles that he doesn't know why she would bother.

He stands at the doorframe and looks at what AspieGrrl has done with the place and smiles widely and approvingly and when anyone looks his way adopts a frown and a look of being thoroughly disagreeable to the place and its patrons.

Grumbles that he best be off. Doesn't start whistling until he thinks he is out of earshot. It is a happy tune. Smile

*hands a tip over for the good service*

Do keep it in the fridge, and one for yourself while your at it.

(ever tried it, people? a mixture of white tequila, a large helping of freshly squeezed lime juice, a little sugar, topped up with soda water, it makes a fantastic cocktail, with a couple of slices of fresh lime cut off and floated in there amongst a few ice cubes)

RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Lestat - 06-10-2011 12:15 AM

I only add a little, to taste, bit by bit, to lessen any excess sourness from the lime, its best with quite a lot of lime juice in there I think.

Busy setting up the lathe at the moment for what I'm doing...its not a modern one, these days its all CNC machines, just dial it in and get on with it...this bugger dates back from roughly around the time period just before world war II, 1930s or so, so its a case of line the workpiece up roughly, then whack the tool mount posts with a hammer, twist this knob and that screw, whack some more, examine with a jewellers loupe/hand lens/magnifying glass, whack some more and hope for the best Tongue

Just imagine trying that drunk....or notTongue

RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Lestat - 06-10-2011 03:41 PM

I'm looking out for bar work myself, well, looking out for any work, period (well almost any, prostitute is off the list, as are toilet cleaner, stripper, and anything involving either the posession of two fully functional knee joints, and/or handlng anything with a texture similar to that of a wooden spoon...ick..evil texture...just...wrong..)

Although I would love to go into one of the scientific fields, bar work would be good for the cash..but I am doing my best to learn through practise, how to set up old-style capstan lathes, as I have to use one regularly here at home, apparently, since almost all lathes in use these days are computer controlled CNC types, one can get paid quite a lot, likewise for welding, that appeals too. Training as a welder is very expensive though, and at the moment I just don't have enough money.

Science-y and bar work I don't think are mutually exclusive, I am very much that type myself. Heh, and then some. Anything physical and technical in nature appeals, unless it involves a lot of math (thanks, dyscalculia, bugger off and a merry damn well xmas along with it), spent quite a while setting up that damn old fossil of a lathe last night, in fact all the time, short of one single finished workpiece/part that got made, out of a total of about 70Tongue and around 6am I was busy recrystallizing the fruits of my labours in the lab, my latest project, dissolving in CH2Cl3, washing repeatedly with water, distilling off the dichlor, washing with MeOH etc...rinse, repeat, rinse, repeat...literally.

Thats what comes with being autie and having wierd sleeping patternsTongue

Does give a bit of a boost to the cocktail-mixing skills though, you would be surprised what can be done with diethyl or diisopropyl ether (uninhibited of course) as far as mixing a drink goes...and one with a heck of a kick to it at that, worked for the irish a decade or two ago, and the russians have a history of drinking the stuff, its actually quite pleasant, although a lot more intoxicating than alcohol.


I think a good shot of gin or three is in order right about now, and then, finally, bedtime (nearly 2.45pm, but still....

RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Lestat - 06-12-2011 08:34 AM

I have never blown anything up that wasn't on purpose aspiegrrl, in fact I am perhaps rediculously OVERcareful about such things...I have a bottle of THF here, a liter, for use as a solvent in the final preperation of my latest...project....its an ether, and most ethers are prone to forming peroxides in the atmosphere, and as such are usually shipped with a minute portion of one of a few different inhibitor compounds in there, a few fraction of a percent, but enough to retard the formation of the peroxide and hydroperoxide products, for even a year in storage.

This stuff is from a polish reseller, that just removes it from a larger drum, bottles it up and squeezes them until there is no airspace left before capping, and it is uninhibited.

I handle the stuff like it is the next thing to VX nerve agent, more or less, carefully check for peroxides any and every time its ever used, open/close/remove from bottle for use under inert gas flow, and fill the deadspace of the bottle with further portion of inert gas (argon), to prevent formation of the THF peroxide/hydroperoxides.

They are damn nasty if they form, extremely highly sensitive explosives, can crust around the screwcaps of a container if allowed to form, and any shock, or friction, even opening or setting it down a bit roughly on a counter/benchtop etc is quite capable of resulting in a hell of a bang (enough, for instance, in one case I know of, to blast somebody's lab fridge into pieces, blowing a large chunk through the ceiling, after blowing and igniting the THF (or might have been diethyl ether, both are prone to peroxidation) and tear the room to pieces.

So A is out, (hopefully), thats probably more careful than any average employed chemist will handle THF, diethyl ether, dioxane, and the like, as an example of my personal tendencies around such things. Only time I have ever had an explosion, was on a compound I synthesised many years back, as a kid, a tetraminecopper complex, I think, if I remember right the chlorate, and the nitrate also. They went off with a right bang, but realising it was near certain with the chlorate, and perfectly possible in the case of the nitrate, they were only produced in the region of a few hundred milligrams.

Did once, when much, much less experienced, have a real nasty accident that left its mark though, producing a substance which I shall most certainly not publicly name in a fair quantity, reacting a single precursor chemical with caustic soda dissolved in alcohol, and heated to reflux. Only I didn't at the time, know just how important boiling chips (add to reaction vessel to prevent sudden bumping and spraying etc as things get hot, just broken glass or porcelain chips, but they provide tiny surfaces for air bubbles to nucleate around, and stay small, rather than having the potential to erupt like old faithful gone psycho)

Only thats what it did, and would you bloody know it, at the one prescise moment I lifted my goggles to scratch an itch on my nose.

Boiling alcohol, with valuable precursor, and concentrated sodium hydroxide, erupted out of there, as it heated up very quickly on the reaction commencing after starting addition of the NaOH much too quickly.

Right smack bang in my right eye and over my face. I still have very poor distance vision from that eye, can't read huge sign print from five feet off, although close up vision is still OK. Glasses correct the sight defect, luckily, when I need to see something with stereo vision at a distance, or for reading.

Hurt like blazes, although I was working next to a tap, and had water on hand for emergencies like that, doused my face off, irrigated my eyes, for quite some time...most uncomfortable, using language that at that age I should probably never have heard in my lifeTongue Then set about sucking up all the splattered reaction mixture from the benchtop, floor and surroundings, wiping the walls, windows and ceiling off with tissue, then going about extracting what I could from the sopping wet tissue to clean up and add to the content still left in the flask, took me most of the night, although I did manage to rescue a good amount.

B-you never know, maybe one day, that would be sweet as hell, although most biochemistry research involves these days, sick callous, heartless torturing monsters abusing animals in the worst imagineable ways. I absolutely refuse to do this, no matter what the procedure or test. I have nothing against say, drawing a small blood sample, if ever that was useful, swabbing skin/tongue gentlyfor a few cells to begin a culture, or isolate DNA for say, PCR analysis when eventually I get round to doing all the work building a PCR setup, electrophoresis chamber, electroporation/gene gun/photoporation equipment, but otherwise, animal experimentation is utterly, completely something I will have no hand in.

Bar tender-hmm, if only sombody would give me the chance at least to prove myself, or even an interview, could do, could do.

Pull a curie...well at the moment, I very seldom have any use for radiation sources, at least, never thus far a use for a powerful gamma radiation source, only ever, in anything I have done, used alpha particle emitters, for ionization sources, and unless ingested, an alpha radiation emitter is fairly benign, alpha radiation travels a mere few centimeters in air, and is stopped dead by a thin sheet of paper, the dead surface of one's skin, etc.

Curie did contribute a ton to science, although I am only prepared to do likewise if I am alive to tell the tale!
Only reason I would do something that might end up with the end of me, is if I had to pull something out of the hat fast, if ever my girl got sick enough that there was little else left but something that couldn't be tried by doctors.

Imagination...well I do a great diethyl or diisopropyl ether/vodka/codeine syrup cocktail sort of thing....hits like a an industrial sized truck convoy containing sledgehammers, and pretty tasty as long as you get the right brand of codeine linctus (not the one that tastes like fake, artificial sweetner orange...that stuff tastes hideous.) Big Grin

Never liked jasmine tea, too flowery and insipid. I have tried a rose and black tea I like, and I love chinese white tea, though, sweetened with honey. In fact I think I might just have one right now.

Hmm....something cold, please m'lady, probably not a great idea to make it very strong, as I now have to go and get a distillation of carefully pre-dried solvents done over sodium/lithium scraps (flammable on contact with water, and atmospheric moisture) while under inert gas, then immediately use it to dissolve some lithium aluminium hydride...that gets VERY unpleasant if allowed to contact atmospheric moisture for any longer than is needed to quickly weigh it out and add it to the flask.

I think it would aspirgrrl. Truth be told, never had bourbon myself, although I'm not a wiskey drinker. I hate wiskey, at least, scotch/oirish wiskey, uggh, disgusting stuff, smells like burnt wood soaked in piss to me. Southern comfort is ok though. I usually drink beer myself, or other spirits. I like gin, schnapps, heavy ales and coconut run, and love absinthe, but truly loathe wine, scotch or even worse, a watered down 'vodka' thats sold dirt cheap here by the name of vodkat, really cheap, but about 14% or something like that, eww, that stuff is sickening.

Hmmm...what with it being my birthday, I think I might just have a look online, and get me some coca leaf spirit, and some leaf to chew. Customs scum will steal it if they see it but it isn't highly likely, there are some really nice liqeurs available online if you look for them, made in peru, colombia and places around there in south america, and coca tea is pretty good too made with the (un chewedTongue) leaf, full of vitamins as well.

*bakes cookies*

I bake some pretty nice brownies, I am not quite as big a fan of my cookies, but my brownies kick arse

Hmm....you know, I think its going to have to be a day I hunt some down, for a change, just got my new bank card, after some arserape-sprog, so my bank informed me, tried using my card. Hell knows how they got my number, but I had to put a stop on the card and get a new one.

So I have a fair slice of money to celebrate my b/day with now (although I did put a large chunk of it into my savings tin to go towards seeing a certain gorgeous young lady...not far off twice my age, but a gorgeous young lady just the same, and in fact, more so with age. Getting towards half a grand now)

Today, I think, is going to be one spent celebrating, true 'tis the day after my 25th. I fancy a nice big cuban cigar, and damnit, I am going to make sure I find one!

Nope, I got to help set up Fireworks for a show, unfortunately,(or, rather, fortunately, depending on who you ask) I didn't get to set them off.  When I got home, my brothers and some of the neighbor-people-kids were burning the "evidence" of their own 'show' in a metal trash bin we inscribed our names on the outside of several years ago using sparklers.  They saved two sparklers for me.  The 'bonfire'(and I'm using the term loosely) was eventually put out with a garden hose.  I did light the Sparklers, four leaves, some bits of cardboard, a few dud Piccolo Petes, and several other things on fire.  The smoke was terrible, but I didn't mind.  It was wonderful.

Yes they sell it here, pale highlighter pen yellow-green translucent bottle.

Pretty foul, sickly stuff though if you ask me, tastes like 'sprite'


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - AspieGrrl - 07-07-2011 09:37 PM

Have you had Sprite with Grenadine?  And a Marsciano Cherry?  It may be too sweet for your taste, but, I don't object.  Mountain Dew on the other hand, has too much sweet at start.  Sprite has a lighter flavor, as well as being less 'syrup-y'.


RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Lestat - 07-07-2011 10:02 PM

Can't say as I ever have. I don't really plan on it either, I hate sprite. Far too sickly, and rhymes too well with 'shite' to be entirely trustworthy.

Funny coincidence... walking to the train station on Wednesday I noticed that the nearest pub to where I live (5 minutes up the road) is called "Grumpy's".

I'm not a big fan of sprite or mountain dew either. But sprite DOES make a reasonable substitute when I can't find any tonic to go with my gin.

Damn...I am pissed as a rat arsed furry blue ****** fart.

Only had a single can of lager...that it, no more, just one single can. Strong stuff, 9% nevertheless, but still....

I've been working hard all day, welding stuff together, up all last night awake, spent all today, or almost all of it in a well insulated shed, with a welding torch blazing away, in the summer heat...too much heat totally drains me.

But one much needed can of ice-cold beer, and I'm seeing double. Time for me to hit the bed methinks. Look at an oh so purrty pic of my dear lady, as I usually do before I sleep and when I wake, I like the first and last thing I see during the day to be her face.

Mmmm...just got up, and thirsty. All I have around right now is a couple of bottles of Crabbie's alcoholic ginger beer. Really tasty stuff, anyone tried it? Delicious ice cold on a hot day.

Perfect for starting up a game of fallout-tactics/brotherhood of steel that I recently downloaded. Very different from the original fallout/fallout II, took me quite some time to get a grasp of the realtime combat system...reminds me of X-com apocalypse, only post apocalyptic nuclear holocaust flavoured, in some ways.

When I finish this bottle of Crabbie's, I think I'll have to go out and buy another crate of the stuff. nearly a fiver for 4 bottles...a bit pricy, but still...this stuff is REALLY tastySmile

If your going to use something like that to build a house....preferably SELL the things first, and use the profits to pay for the work??? *checks cynara's eyes*....hmm...pinpoint pupils, burnt bit of tinfoil in hand....no bloody wonder, thats what happens when you smoke your foundationsTongue

For me? hmm...pretty thirsty right now, all I have to drink is one bottle of some odd-tasting strawberry kiwi stuff that I really do not like, and a few rehydration salt mix packets.

Oh, and some lemon balm vodka, but thats not ready yet, it hasn't been distilled (well it has when the vodka I'm testing the recipe with was made obviously, but not by me after adding the balm). Might well taste pretty foul right now, although I have no idea....might just try a shot later...if I dare.

So anything going aspiegrrl, and some of what kapkao seems to be promoting over there(although not to build a house with...) if I remember where my IV kit is...my vaporising pipe is crusted with 5-methoxy-n,n-diallyltryptamine freebase and my nose is still slightly stinging from the AMT that I originally planned for yesterday.

Although kapkao, you reminded me about the carrier bag full of smashed up poppy pods I have hanging around...so I think I might just have some pod tea in a bitBig Grin

So THAT's the sort of 'use' you've been putting your chemistry genius to.

RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Lestat - 09-19-2011 02:28 AM

The pods? ahh...well....didn't grow em myself, just got a good quantity that were already about.

I've thought that it might be a good introduction to thin-layer chromatography though, not as a means to seperate the alkaloids, that is easy enough without the use of hightech methods, or even the comparitively low-tech chromatography methods, such as on sillica/alumina columns, or TLC, but there are some 20 or so different alkaloids in there, which would give good practise for learning how to read a TLC itself.

A pod or two would suffice for that though, but I figured a bagful would be more...usefulWinkBig Grin
Not that I'm saying I plan taking them off to the lab and breaking out the propionyl chloride (dipropionylmorphine is more potent than diacetyl/H), thats around for my AMPAkine project....but...I could possibly spare a few ml....Tongue

Although I am not what you could call a chemistry genius kapkao, I probably know more about pharmacology and cognitive neuroscience than I do chemistry.

And THAT sort of chemistry is NOT difficult, not where heroin production is concerned. The afghans manage to isolate morphine easily enough by more or less taking raw opium, stewing it up and skimming off plant debris then precipitating using calcium hydroxide (slaked lime) which takes advantage of the acidity of phenols to form a calcium morphinate salt which is insoluable. Its then cleaned up of course, but you could acetylate that right then and there (acetic anhydride or acetyl chloride plus a base to absorb the hydrogen chloride that is given off in the case of the latter) and get a smokeable/snortable product that did exactly what was asked of it..

Right now? I'm not about to go to that much effort tonight, just going to take a tiny portion of what I have and heat it in water, add sugar, hold nose, tip back in one, curse profusely (poppy tea tastes AWFUL and smells every bit as foul as it tastes)

Uggh...better go weigh the things out hadn't I, rather than putting it off.

RE: Grumpy is opening the bar...celebration time! - Lestat - 09-19-2011 05:40 AM

A phenol is a hydroxyl (OH) group coming off an aromatic ring, similar in some respects to alcohols, but much more acidic. TLC-thin layer chromatography, where substances are separated out, and characterised by virtue of different retention times and speeds of movement relative to other substances in a mixture in given solvents/solvent mixtures, useful for, for instance, following a given reaction to see how its progressing, or if something is present at all.

Acetyl group is C=CH3, propionyl would be one more carbon: CH3CH2C=O, the functional groups relating to acetic acid (vinegar) and propionic acid respectively, the process for making H involves reaction of morphine base with acetic anhydride (usually) although acetyl chloride can be used, to form an (di)acetyl ester,  (esters are substances derived from an alcoholic or phenolic hydroxyl group  with an oxygen-containing acid via condensation,  having the formula RC=OOR for a carboxylic acid ester such as a formyl, acetyl or propionyl ester)

That increases the lipophilic character of morphine making it cross the blood-brain barrier much faster, and better, which is why heroin is known to have a greater rush when injected as well as greater potency as a painkiller in comparison to morphine (it acts as a prodrug to a considerable extent, 6-monoacetylmorphine is also pretty active and is produced in the body by metabolism from H)

AFAIK dipropionylmorphine is more potent still, and longer lasting, although, apparently according to wikipedia, slower acting, surprising, unless its due to the larger acyl group the ester is formed from proving slower to hydrolyse.

AFAIK dipropionylmorphine is more potent still, and longer lasting, although, apparently according to wikipedia, slower acting, surprising, unless its due to the larger acyl group the ester is formed from proving slower to hydrolyse.
