Lounge Cocktail: The Bartman
Cocktail by WebTender

Ingredients:
1 1/2 shot Rum
12 oz Mountain Dew
1 - 2 shot Blue Maui

Mixing instructions:
Add rum and Mountain Dew to glass. Then add enough Maui to make the drink bright green.

Chances are since this is made with Mt. Dew ity originated in a southern state. This means the run can be substituted for any hard liquor.

Are You My Daddy?

A guy goes to the supermarket and notices
an attractive young woman waving at him and smiling widely.

She says hello.

He's rather taken aback because he can't
place where he knows her from but feels he would remember such an attractive woman. She seems familiar but her name and where he knows her from is not clear. He walks a little closer to her and tries to remember a name without success.

"Do you know me?" he says. To which she replies, "You may remember me, I think you're the father of one of my kids."

Now his mind travels back to the only time he has ever been unfaithful to his wife and says, "My God, are you the stripper from my bachelor party that I made wild oiled love to on the pool table with all my buddies watching and cheering, while your partner whipped my butt with a mink tail whip?"

She looks into his eyes and says calmly, "No, I'm your son's 2nd grade teacher."

Lounging at the movies:

Shooter (2007)
Starring Marky Mark, Michael Peña, Danny Glover and others. Everyone should know by now that if you see Mark Wahlburg with a gun there is going to be some butt kickin' goin' on. This movie is about a sniper (Mark Wahkberg) who has resigned but is asked to consult in stopping an assassination attempt. He agrees to consult and the job turns out to be one of the worse gigs a guy could want. Thanks to a bunch of military training and some aid from an FBI agent left for dead, he makes good of a really bad situation. 3 thumbs up and a nod and a wink.

The Departed (2006)
Starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon, Jack Nicholson, Mark Wahlberg, Martin Sheen and others.

A twisted tale of "Family Business" and the ins and outs of living a lie. Really violent with strong language especially from Wahlberg who has one of the best lines in the film. This film follows the lives of a couple of local Boston boys through thier lives as the good the bad and the ugly. Powerful film created from the gritty situation. Excellent movie. Must see.
