During the course of one particular job, an industrial coating on some locker-room floors, Dave offered to sell me a truck. Understand that he knew from the day I started, that I did not have a license to drive. It seemed Dave could care less if I had a license or otherwise, and pressed me to buy his truck.

Mixing coctails is like being the bar-b-que dude; the festivities and everybodies taste buds are depending on you. Both artforms require a LOT of practice before you are good enough to take on a party....the practice is what I like to focus on...a cocktail can never be to perfect. I've been practicing martinis tonight, and heres how I'm doing them: Prep: A tumbler half full of one inch ice cubes, (which I always keep in my freezer) 5oz. decent gin (go with no less than Tanqueray) 1 ...
