    What a concept

    So the Fedex Office / car repair / detailing place has a great waiting room....it's a bar! I can wait for hours for the lube job to be done.....Now I'm trying to get the bartender to get creative and come up with a "specialty" drink menu......any suggestions?

        Drinking and driving is never a good idea.

                A breathalyser that plugs into a cellphone and uses a specific app is being marketed here in NZ.

                      I just tend to have drinks neat. Good to see you back, Carter. Tell Doug to keep on keeping on.

                        Sidecar, of course!

                          In Mozambique you can buy beer at petrol stations. You can fill up, and fill up.

                              Just noticed that "the price is right" is on the TV.

                              (and I have those same wine racks, so clearly Ikea is EVERYWHERE)
