Hmmm...a new cyber-bar. Which non-alc drink would you recommend for a homework-overloaded student, barkeep?

I was just thinking, "Where DID the bar go to?"

Then I was thinking, "Why did I just end a sentence in a preposition?"

Then I was thinking, "Boy, I'm chilly this evening. A nice warm soy milk with a generous shot of amaretto and two oatmeal cookies on the side would be awfully nice."

Could I please have a nice warm soy milk with a generous shot of amaretto and two oatmeal cookies on the side.

That would be awfully nice.

One Homemade Special for the young lady.

*mixes drink, takes cookies out of oven*

Here you go mam.

And I would suggest the Children of the Mocha or Iced Bonzo. Both are on special right now (4-5 is happy hour).

Hi Advent!

I wasn't sure whether or not to open without you yesterday... what do I do in a situation like that?

Just relax and take the day off in such situations Tinros, no need to open if the legal bartender isn't here. [Wink]

And here you are CRash, one Raspberry Iced Bonzo.

I'm not interested in an iced drink. It is chilly at this end of the bar.

Tinros, how is your project on the new drinks coming? I am not pressing you on your time limit (Sat) I am just curious if I can add anything to the menu tonight.

Sorry Advent, I haven't had a lot of time to work on it lately. My flute broke during my college audition Monday, and I've been in a bit of a funk ever since.

I will, however, get to work on those. Like, soon.

Who can tell me the next line in this joke:

So, three Hatrackers walk into a bar.
The first one says, "Give me nothing, I've already got a drink."
The second one says, "Give me a milk and cookies."
The third one says, "I'll have an Raspberry Iced Bonzo."

So the bartender says...

You can sit next to the fireplace if you want Ms. Shvester.

*points to new furnishings at other end of the bar next to a blazing fireplace* If you want to make an order my assistant will be more than happy to take your order.

*smiles fatherly* Of course Tante, everyone in my bar knows the name of one of the most beautiful women in Hatrack.

*winks* In fact you may be the reason I get so much business.

CRash, I'm happy and getting happier. Wouldn't it be swell if warm soy milk with a shot of amaretto and oatmeal cookies on the side were to become part of the regular drink menu? It could be a Hatrack-themed drink. Let's see, what would be a good name? Maybe "The Tante"!

I am glad you like it Ms. Shvester, I had it installed over the weekend, plus the Grill. So technically this is now a Bar & Grill, but I'm not going to make that official until I have a food menu. I am willing to make anything on request though.

CRash, if you are going to sit way at the other end of the bar, how about we shoot rubber bands at each other?

<Shoots first salvo>

Dang! I missed!

There may be times when I am in need of a bowl of soup. Oh, and do you think you could have a delivery service? There are so many times when I wish I could send a bowl of chicken soup to a fellow Hatracker.

Maybe we could deliver things to the thread they posted in last.

Hmm, a delivery service *grooms goatee*. I might start that after I have the Bar & Grill beter established.

And I think you need some more rubber bands.

Tinos, maybe you broke your flute from too much baroque music.

Get it? Broke -- Baroque? See, it's like a pun!

Maybe I need another drink. Hold the cookies this time, and make it a double!
