It's currently about 4:53 a.m in Anchorage Alaska. Surely someone knows Dawnie's phone number or can find it. Call her and wish her a "good morning." Then report back her response (if it can be posted here without too much editing).

Just give us your phone number and someone will call you at 4:53A tomorrow.

I don't understand this. Why do you want Dawnie to be called so early in the morning?

She's no doubt up at that time so what's the point-
You call her - as she's your girlfriend

I'll call her, what do you want me to call her?

By the way, what is hxxl is the purpose of this?

Daddy's screenname is way too long.....

I'd be willing to call her lots of stuff. But, why on earth would anyone want to actually call her? She has got to be 60 years old!!!!

Keep in mind that I'm the one pushing that handbasket that you've been in your entire life - and it's headed to hell.

By the way, what type of person would use a devil - a fat devil - as their avatar? Would that person be a lunatic banking worker bee?

And another thing, do you realize that your posts prompt all the old ladies of BOL to gather in one place? Why is that - do you have cookies? I'm thinking yes, as I've seen some of the pictures of this huge group!

To make the proper martini, first chill the glass and the shaker.

Pour 2 oz. Tanqueray into the chilled shaker with about 1 cup crushed ice, add a splash of Noilly Prat Extra Dry Vermouth. Shake for a 10-15 seconds.

Serve in a stylish martini glass garnished with either an olive or a twist of lemon peel. Never use both at the same time, and never use olives stuffed with pimientos; and if you do use olives, make sure that they are "Queen" olives.

Enjoy.

About Olives:

The olive branch has long been a symbol of peace, and the silvery-leafed olive tree has been considered sacred at least as far back as the 17th century B.C. Native to the Mediterranean area, the olive is a small, oily fruit that contains a pit. It's grown both for its fruit and its oil in subtropical zones including the United States (Arizona, California and New Mexico), Latin America and throughout the Mediterranean. Olive varieties number in the dozens and vary in size and flavor. All fresh olives are bitter and the final flavor of the fruit greatly depends on how ripe it is when picked and the processing it receives. Under-ripe olives are always green, whereas ripe olives may be either green or black. Spanish olives are picked young, soaked in lye, then fermented in brine for 6 to 12 months. When bottled, they're packed in a weak brine and sold in a variety of forms including pitted, unpitted or stuffed with foods such as Pimentos, almonds, onions, jalapenos, etc. Olives picked in a riper state contain more oil and are a deeper green color. The common black olive or Mission olive is a ripe green olive that obtains its characteristic color and flavor from lye curing and oxygenation. Olives that are tree ripened turn dark brown or black naturally. The majority of these olives are used for oil but the rest are brine or salt-cured and are usually packed in olive oil or a vinegar solution. The Greek Kalamata and the French Nicoise olives are two of the more popular imported ripe olives. Dry-cured olives have been packed in salt, which removes most of their moisture and creates dry, wrinkled fruit. These olives are sometimes rubbed with olive oil or packed with herbs. Both domestic and imported olives are available bottled, canned and in bulk year-round in a variety of forms including whole (pitted, unpitted and stuffed), sliced and chopped. Unopened olives can be stored at room temperature for up to 2 years. Once opened they can be refrigerated in their own liquid (in a nonmetal container) for several weeks.

Gin is a liquor distilled chiefly from fermented cereals, malted and unmalted, and flavored with juniper berries. It originated in Holland (thus the name Hollands, or Holland, gin) but is now manufactured also in other countries, chiefly England (English gin is best, Irish gin is the worst ever). A type of gin developed in England is known as London dry gin; it is more highly distilled than Holland gin.

Gin goes well with tonic water, collins mixer, club soda, and grapefruit juice, and wild game. And don't forget the martinis...

DQ - sounds great, but you really ought to try it stirred, not shaken. Bond doesn't know what he is missing. I had a bartender tell me once that I should try it stirred, and I haven't gone back.

ZD

ZD, my father says it bruises the martinis when you shake them... he always stirs...

Drinking got you into the handbasket in the first place, so no more for you, especially where you are going at the speed of light.

By the way, drinking the hard stuff makes one fat - those that are running around with huge stomachs - that's from drinking the hard stuff, but this doesn't explain big butts. Perhaps you can shed some light on that subject, a subject that is so close to you.

And, no, I'm not in charge of your destiny - just pushing you to where you are destined to go.

I like cheese.

Is there supposed to be sound with THTHTL's avatar? I see the lips moving...
