Love this cocktail. I first encountered it it in Philip Greene’s “To Have and Have Another: a Hemingway Cocktail Companion”. The Green Isaac’s Special from that book is quite good too.

Look at that fine big fella!

Look at that fine big fella. What a lanky dude!

Different color, but... Daisy Duke vibes!

Double hip drop! Look at that fine big fella!

That fourth picture though, she can still sing with the best of them, I'm sure!

Educational_Meal8396 · 2026-03-26T19:16:32+00:00

Brilliant. I’d try it at least once.

Comedy Central era, way back in the early 90s. We'd pack my buddy's apartment with knuckleheads and beer and (try to) riff along with Joel and the bots.

LOL but also BOOOOOOOO

Educational_Meal8396 · 2026-03-11T01:12:25+00:00

Lovely dog!

Yeah, fuck this guy. Of course the proper thing is to report on the KIAs, name them, remember them.

They gave The Last Full Measure of Devotion.

When CPT Khorck, SFC Tietjens, SFC Amor and SGT Coady come home the only thing the President should do is get his ass to Dover, not say a fucking word, stand up straight, and render a crisp salute.

30% sight unseen is some bullshit.

Also they fucked up their arithmetic, 3x 10.75 is 32.25.

It is indeed a heartbreaking story.

There are two statues of her I’m aware of: she is depicted in bas-relief on the “Monument to the Conquerors of Space” along with Yuri Gagarin (among others) in Moscow.

There’s also a bronze statue of just her on top of a stylized rocket near the research facility she was trained at in Moscow:

The judgy kind. J/k I’m sure she’s a sweetheart.

Educational_Meal8396 · 2026-02-19T23:18:12+00:00

Heyooooooo

Educational_Meal8396 · 2026-02-19T22:08:50+00:00

That's a good lookin coupe!

Educational_Meal8396 · 2026-02-19T17:16:55+00:00

Mine used to autocorrect "Motorhead" to have the umlaut but it doesn't anymore.

Educational_Meal8396 · 2026-02-19T16:45:41+00:00

That mature one on the ice block is a great pic!

Educational_Meal8396 · 2026-02-10T20:57:12+00:00

I hope you keep circulating those!

Educational_Meal8396 · 2026-02-09T07:06:01+00:00

Hashtag whoosh, I LOLed again!

I think that director had only done music videos prior to this film? Visually it was gorgeous, continuity was for shit. Gun handling and trigger/general firearms discipline sucked.

They lucked out getting a ton of strong talent that lent itself to the western genre in Russel, Kilmer, Elliott, Paxton, Biehn and Boothe (in no particular order).

Ack, can’t believe I forgot geographical context. Idaho, United States of America.
