Good morning beautiful people.
I've been enjoying my time in the blogosphere; I've had plenty of people tell me how much they enjoy my blog, I've also had some haters who wouldn't know what a blog is without the help of Google. I'm now on the hunt for people looking to get sponsorship and or advertisement space on my page. I know I only have three followers on the actual blog site; however, I have a lot more loyal readers that aren't followers yet. I'm also looking for fellow bartenders that have a creative side and are good with words, that would be interested in blogging on a daily or weekly basis under my blog page.
If there are any bartenders looking to share some experiences they've had within the industry, let me know and we'll set you up and get you started. The stories have to be real and no names can be used. I don't care how vulgar or graphic you choose to be, as long as it's written well and gets people's attention.
As far as the advertisement space goes; I have at least three spots available and I work on a time line contract. I am also open to the idea of sponsoring individuals or teams if anyone is interested.
Please let me know if you would like to join the team and make shit happen!
Stay drunk,

Day Nine At the Office
Hello all you lush's!
To start; I would like to say thank you again to all the people who have given me positive feed back on my blog posts, you people are the reason I write. Second; I have to say sorry for taking a couple days off, I have been busy with life....it's kind of unavoidable.
So now that I've got all that out of the way I can get down to business. Today I celebrated Christmas; I know it's a little odd seeing as how it's May 22nd and all, but it's a true story..I had me a lil X-mas action this A.M.
It's funny how we always get so excited when we know that we're going to be on the receiving end of a present; it's almost as though our 'kid' instincts kick in and the build up becomes unbearable, doesn't matter if we know what the present is, all that matters is that we will be receiving something we didn't have before. This morning I had my new T.V. delivered and set up; the very T.V. I picked out a week earlier and had full knowledge of it's arrival date and time, none of that mattered. Last night I worked myself up so much with anticipation for the arrival of the TV this morning; I could barely sleep and I was acting like a kid on Christmas Eve, I may have gone a little over board with the cookies and milk, but like I said..I was EXCITED! I woke up earlier than I ever have without an alarm clock this morning; I knew I had four hours to kill before the delivery, but I couldn't contain my excitement in the form of sleep any longer.
After all the fuss and buss and about two hours after they arrived; I was staring at heaven on my wall, my eyes were glued to the floating glass screen of my brand new plasma, the delivery guys even stuck around for about a half an hour after..they couldn't stop watching the frame channel with me. I swear it was like a scene out of a movie; I saw a glorious bright light as they turned the power on, I heard birds flapping in the background, my nose picked up the angelic aroma of blissful sea breeze. Turns out my GF had opened the double french doors that lead to the balcony; this frightened the birds that were eating the bread crumbs, the bright light I saw was actually the screen of the TV searching for a signal for the first time and the aroma I was smelling was the GF lighting a Febreeze candle in the other room. Either way; the experience was memorable, the moment was magical and I was half chubbed just to be viewing such magnificent beauty, stealing all the attention in the room and turning heads left, right and centre.
All in all I would say that I am extremely happy today and I can't wait to watch the fights tomorrow night on the new plasma. There's an open invite for anyone who has my number and wishes to call and swing over to experience the ultimate in viewing pleasure. Until then, she's all mine..you can find me in the blueray isle at Blockbuster this weekend.
Cheers to all,

Day Seven At the Office
Good day fellow earthlings.
I know what you're going to say; working on a Sunday is sac religious, well I'm not one to worry about those types of things. Not to say I don't have my belief structure; I just merely don't believe in powerful idles other than the internet, I mean let's face it, at least I know the internet actually exists.
Anyway people; I am just popping in to lay down a good luck to the Lakers and to shout out the people who keep coming back for more, thanx to those of you who have messaged me on other social networking sites to tell me you've read and enjoyed my blog. It really does mean a lot to me to know that I'm not just banging away aimlessly on the keys of this here board attatched to my computer. I will be back tomorrow with some stories about my ridiculously good looking family and our whacky adventures (always fun) at a family bbq taking place later today. Stay tuned for more!
Next rounds on me,

Day Six At the Office
Good morning happy campers!
It's gunna be short and sweet today. It's May long weekend and in my eyes it's really just another weekend. I kind of feel as though long weekends are a tad bit overrated; I mean in my industry every weekend is a long weekend and if you want to really get technical, the whole week sort of feels like a weekend to me. I do understand that for people who have full time jobs and work their butts off day in and day out; a long weekend is just what the doctor ordered, however for me, I usually end up finding myself in a profession that doesn't celebrate long weekends. Tha being said, it is my personal opinion that long weekends are not really all that hype.
Aside form that; I got a new T.V. yesterday, it's frickin sweet! It was a long time coming since my old T.V. was on its last leg and often turned itself off whenever it fealt like it. I have to admitt I was torn between plasma and LCD; I walked in with full intentions of getting an LCD, but after talking to the sales rep and reading a few new things they have changed about plasma screen technology, I changed my mind and got a plasma instead. Can't wait for thedelivery ad set up next week!
Anyway, I have to make it to the gym before I haul ass into work for the day where I no doubt will be slammed from open till close pouring beers and slingin' shots. It's a beautfiul day, so make sure you all come check me out behind the bar at the Yardhouse on 17th Ave.
Happy May Long,

Day Five At the Office
Morning happy campers:)
This weekend marks my one year anniversary working at the Yardhouse on 17th Ave. It's funny how much changes in a year; yet I remember (somewhat) like it was just yesterday, still a bit hazy though because I was damn near kidney failure with the amount of pints I had consumed. What i do remember is pretty clear though; I was sitting at one of the side tables with a couple friends, we were drinking pint after pint of Ricard's White and the night was quickly getting away from us. I recall Dwight Davis (manager at the time) approaching me and asking if I wanted to work the door on the weekends; of course I was more than happy to accept the offer, little did I know it would turn into a whole lot more for me. The night I was offered the job was a Wednesday if I recall correctly; either way, I was sitting with my friend Tiffany and a couple other people that I don't remember, we were basically drunk and not letting up as the evening went on.
I worked the entire summer and had a blast! It was around late August when I went in during lunch hour to collect my paycheck; Sean Parker (manager) was standing behind the bar pouring drinks and cursing the day bartender that had just quit, I guess I was in the right place at the right time and Parker offered me the job. I started that very day and haven't slowed down or looked back since; I have actually grown fond of the employee's and a few of the regulars, one could say that I actually enjoy my job.
So here I am; a year later and thousands of drinks poured since, I like what I do and because of that it makes me a happy person in my everyday life. If you haven't heard of or visited the Yardhouse I strongly suggest that you do. We play great music and offer great food and a comfortable atmosphere; if you're a singe guy or girl, the Yardhouse is the place to be on a Friday and Saturday night! See you all soon!
Happy Hour is dead,

Day Four At the Office Pt.2
Hello friendly drinkers!
Today I got some more ink done on my sleeve (work in progress). A long time ago I got a tattoo on my left arm around my biceps (horrible tribal design) and for years since I have wanted to get it either fixed up or covered up. At the end of last summer I decided to go see the ink artist that was currently doing my older brothers arm tattoo and my sister in law's tattoo as well; I really liked the work that I saw so I took upon myself to make an appointment for a consult with Dan Cameron (at the time was working out of Immaculate Concepts) and we were able to set something up. I went ahead with getting the cover up but decided it would be worth it just to get my entire left arm done, it seemed like the right thing to do so the rest of the arm wouldn't feel left out:)
I sat for around four hours today and towards the end I'll admit, it started to feel a tad bit raw. I have a pretty high pain threshold but after the third hour I start to get bored and feel the urge to watch the artist go to town on my skin with a motor powered needle poking in and out, over and over again. Needless to say I start to feel uncomfortable and think it's best to retire that session and wait anxiously for the next available appointment. It's funny how we (people who enjoy tattoo's) can't wait to get it over and done with while we're experiencing the whole tattoo tradition; yet when it's all done, we literally can't wait to get back in and either get the rest finished or get something new done. I guess crazy really is as crazy does; this being said, I must be an absolute nut!
Nothing but beer bongs!
