Happy Birthday New Orleans Bar is open

New Orleans was founded on this day in 1718. To celebrate, the bar is serving Mint Juleps and Old Fashioneds all day, those southern staples...

I'll have a mint julep, and keep them coming! Off to Vegas tonight and the weather is going to be rocking and rolling at takeoff time...I'm going to be plastered when I get on the plane!

I am going to buy a round for all the Taurii in the Cooler today.

Cheers, Taurii!

well, 3 minutes after the city founding, corruption set in, which has persevered to this day! So, happy corruption anniversary as well!

Can I pull a "Happy" and change my birthday so I can be a Taurus for the day?


I've got a sick kid home today so I'm going to need something strong to kill any germs she may have shared - Long Islands and keep them coming.

they will be able to light the oil slick soon in celebration

For you, NotP, you can be a Taurus for the day. Kid germs need killin'.

Thanks Sarah!

I asked High Maintenance if she wanted to live in a bubble - she was okay with it as long as it was pink. When I told her we could also fill it with helium so she could sound like a Chipette, she was even more excited with the idea.

Let's hear it for all the great Taurus !!!!

So, what exactly does an Old Fashion consist of? Do you think I'd like it?

I don't like Fords

Light conversation that a way ----------->
in the Con Cooler

Old Fashioneds too! Being the southerner that I am I love both; I'll have one of each.

Ya'll have Old Fashioneds down there???

We thought that was a northern WI/MN thing... hard to find a bartened outside of WI that knows how make one...

old fashioneds were invented in the south, JJ (as were most great things, but i'll leave that part out)

oh, the whiskey type

We like ours with Brandy.

Is there such a thing as a New Fashioned?

I was born and raised in New Orleans and I am a Taurus...technically the New Orleans Bar never closes...and even the "biggest nerd" in our class was a drinker...
