This was a response to a couple of questions one of the club members sent me a while back :-) First, the Martini. Be warned, if you are not a big drinker a Martini is a BAD starting place for real c

the 'real' stuff is highly overrated. It contains VERY low doses of THC, get more effect from punching a cone and having a few beers. The mystique surrounding absinth has less to do with the wormwood (the THC ingredient) and EVERYTHING to do with the fact that when prepared the traditional way (sugar cube, fire, all that jazz)

Back in ye olde Paris, the sugar wasn't sugar but laudanum, a opium derrivative (about 10% opium, or roughly 2% morphine solution).

Opiates + alcohol + mild dose of THC = GOOD times.

Interesting idea. Misses some key styles but a solid representation and we'll laid out with some solid information.

In other news one of my regulars came in for lunch today. Guy is a royal pain in the ass and when dining with large groups we let him bring in a few bottles of really high end wine to share with the table. This means no booze sales which means smaller bill which means less tips. And you have to work HARD with this guy, he is almost impossible to please and everything needs to be flawless and done at the highest standards expected from a hat rated restaurant.

So I bust a gut all day looking after him and his family, handling wines worth more a bottle than I make in a month. End of the meal and I'm put up some dessert glasses for him as he has some port he wants to share with his guests. I get them all set and he asks for one more, I scratch my head but whatever.

So out comes the bottle of Port. It's in a wooden case, velvet lined. Little half bottle inside. He pours a portion for all his guests and a portion in the extra glass, stuff has the consistency and colour of engine oil and the smell is so strong I can smell it from the next table. He then explains what it is. I shit you not it was a 1908 para liqueur. 105 year old port. This stuff must be worth more than my car. His guests all begin the process of savouring the drink and the guy waves me over. I ask what I can do for him and he says, "I wanted to say thank you for looking after us so well today. This is for you." and he hands me the extra glass.

105 year old port. 105 years. This stuff is almost as old as Australia as a country.

All I can say is wow. WOW. I've had the pleasure of drinking some truly exceptional drinks over the years and this has to be the single finest thing I have ever tasted and may ever taste. Thick, intense, Smooth, lingering taste that opens up to reveal layer upon layer upon layer of flavours. This is why I am so passionate about alcohol not as a way to get f**ked up but to enjoy, savour and share. It's a passion for me and God damn if I'm not the luckiest son of a bitch that others feel the same way and want to share with me as well.

Makes it all worth while hey Boz. That really touched me!

Have had a similar experience but they just bought me a $40 nip of whiskey as he was a whiskey drinker too and we had spent quite a while talking about it. =)

(This was back when a normal drink was about $3.50)

      1992 R32 GT-R Race Car

      By bardabe · Posted

      I'm selling my personal race car. 1992 BNR32 Skyline GT-R About eight years ago the engine developed the dreaded low oil pressure problem. I removed it and found the issue. However shortly after I moved half way across the country, moved my work shop, bought a house, got married, then moved my shop again to it's permanent location for the time being. in turn I do not have the time to race this car as it should be. In turn the engine I built for this car will end up in my street car and this car I hope finds a home with someone who can use it to it's full potential. The roll bar was built by Jason Noren Fabricaiton in Pomona California to SCCA and NASA Specs. The car used to compete in redline time attack and global time attack enthusiast class. It also has a fire suppression system.  The car is with me at my workshop in Kyle Texas, USA. Shipping it is no problem, I can personally deliver the car to the port of either Houston or Los Angeles. Any other port depending on where it is may require transport but we can always work that out.   The chassis itself is rust free, rear quarters and under fenders are free of any rust so it's a very solid foundation for anyone who wishes to move forward with it. As posted and at the asking price of $20,000 USD the car includes all of the following;   All OEM Body panels, front fenders, rear bumpers etc.  OEM Nissan Projector headlamps (Pictured N1 lamps were removed) OEM Nismo Side Skirts / Extensions OEM Rear Spats  Front & Rear Subframes are installed car is full roller Rear Subframe has Cusco Camber Arms, Whiteline HICAS Elimination Front Subframe has Whiteline tension rods and whiteline Sway bars w/ endlinks.  Buddy Club N1 Coilovers All chassis wiring and engine wiring is in tact. Attessa System is fully in tact and was functional before engine removal.  BCNR33 GT-R Brembo Brakes F+R with Endless MX72 Plus Pads, DBA Rotors & Stainless Steel Brake lines Billion Racing Radiator Billion Radiator Hoses Fluidyne Engine Oil Cooler Accusump System (trunk Mounted) 5 Speed Transmission w/ Transfer Case F+R Prop-shafts Rear Differential With rear Axles.  Nismo Gauge Cluster Nismo Clutch + Flywheel   Essentially what is needed to make this car running and driving again is as follows: A working Engine, an ECU, and time to put it together. The price posted is or best offer as I am willing to remove some components to accommodate price to a certain extent. If any serious buyer wants full detailed pictures, videos, or any questions I'll be happy to answer them. I believe this car is priced to move quickly considering it's a rust free and very straight chassis but always open to fair negotiation.  I can be contacted via phone or email.
