Hopefully not all in one night, lol!

I see you have a couple (at least) pinball machines. Sweet! Care to give us some info on them?

One is The Simpsons and the other is Lord of the Rings. I’m trying to hunt the Iron Maiden special edition down that was released in 2018 but it was only released in Europe so that’ll probably never happen. All 3 editions sold out fast from what I was told.

I ate a lobster there so that’s close enough.

Some people in Newfoundland gave me a bunch of screech to bring home on that trip.

Later that winter was my birthday so I busted it out and a couple friends n i got HAM-MERRED on that stuff and I almost got beat up by a nearly 400lbs native woman.

That stuff have me the worst hangover I ever had in my life

Haha--good stuff.

Thanks again to you and your truck driving buddies for keeping us fed and warm.

Here's one of my favorite driving songs at Christmas.

Expensive

Don’t need to spend much for decent vodka either. There are usually some good local distilleries that produce vodka that is 5 times distilled for a fair price (and not just paying for the label because it gets name dropped by mumble rappers or something). Not sure how it is there but there are some good ones in Alberta.

Even if not, you can get some solid Euro vodka for less, not sure how others feel about it but I’ve always liked Luksusowa (Polish vodka) and it’s available for under $30

Thats an awesome bar, love the potato chip rack! Chips are my kryptonite, that sucker would be empty all the time...

Soda Jerk is a vodka based drink in Root Beer and Orange Creme flavours. Great as a stand alone shot, but I like to mix it with Rumchata, to make Orange Creme or Root Beer "floats". Also makes the A&W root beer alcoholic but cant really taste it. I imagine it would be great for kids birthday parties if Mom or Dad wants to make the old root beer a little more adult-ish lol.

Earlier in the thread I posted some drink suggestions with Soda Jerk from Club Dirty.

I actually turned into a p***y with my beer drinking. I switched to Michelob Ultra from Keiths. Keith’s is a great beer from NS. The Ultra has a 1/3 of the Calories

I’d be worried about the cream flavours with hard liquor. We use to mix Root Beer with Royal Reserve Whiskey. Badddddd mistake
