the only time when a guy is actually allowed to drink a cocktail is when:

A) it is served by a gorgeous-under 25-topless-blond waitress

and

B) the drink is for free

or

c) gulping it down will help you get some

ah come on. the name of the spot is Tikki Room thats the first set of drinks that is mentioned (all too sweet for me but I still like the names). Anyway as I said its silly but hey, I could be worse off.

THAT I have to strenuously disagree with.

I LOVE cocktails. I wouldn't want to live without cocktails.

But there's a biiiiiiiiiig fucking difference between a Manhattan, or a Martini, or even a goddamn Pisco Sour, and something called a "Tikki Me Elmo".

You know, ever since you told me that manhattan story, I've taken to baiting strippers with same. It's been a load of fun and I should have thanked you before now.

No Secrets Here

THAT MANHATTAN STORY

I've just sat down in a strip club. Waitress approaches.

WAITRESS: Would you like something to drink?

ME: Sure.

WAITRESS: What'll it be?

ME: I'll have a Manhattan.

WAITRESS: You'll have a what?

ME: A Manhattan.

WAITRESS: Can you repeat that?

ME: A Manhattan.

WAITRESS: Is that a drink?

[Stripper Friend joins me while I'm waiting for my drink. Drink arrives.]

STRIPPER FRIEND: Is that a Cosmopolitan?

ME: No that is not a Cosmopolitan.

STRIPPER FRIEND: What is it?

ME: A Manhattan.

STRIPPER FRIEND: Is that a drink?

ME: Want to try it?

STRIPPER FRIEND (takes sip): Ewwwwwwwwww.

perfect manhattan . . .

or side car (and b/f bonfire). do u think it is worth it to stay in mestre and commute in?

BIG QUESTION:

why do we who are luckier, richer, smarter than 99% of the world's population spend our time doing this?

counting my blessings,
hvb

me = never tasted a cosmo.

not once, but boilermakers billions and billions of times.

true confess (hombre doesn't know michellin from michelle of long island),
hvb

re: "ewwwww" and 4 this mrs. p doesn't get the best of your love?

yeah (sigh) and they

packed the fois gras to go. (in christmas paper.) nice nice. but that is no reason to hold that against old rocco. he's a wood sprite. drink talk doesn't bother me. i go to artisinal all the time. ordered a 1990 y'quem there for some impoverished 20 somethings . . . just so's they'd know. go there. ask for sasha (the frommagere), say you know me.

fontainbleu (tastes like sweet air),
hvb

what of taillevant, the vaunted lobster sausage . . . eh, i'd rather pastrami from katz's.

well jl . . .

i could take u there just as soon as i . . .

(i) go back to work full time;
(ii) get pregnant; or
(iii) hit the lottery.

i suppose we'll have to take ole hombre (esp. if i get knocked up), but he'd just as soon eat thai food. (what's THAT about?)

toujours en noir,
hvb

i know i know FRENCH thai = elephant. also a nice nice man.

i like blue elephant,

Maya (upscale)

Something like Los Dos Rancheros (NW corner of 9th Ave. & 37th St.?????) (NOT upscale)

Taquelitos in Sunset Park, Brooklyn (even more not upscale)
