Shaken, Not Stirred.

i feel like bars are breeding grounds for new ideas and inspirations. this is where people go to socialize, relax and talk to anyone that will listen. it is usually filled with music, laughter and people looking for a good time. people go to their bar of choice because to them it is comfortable. a place where they can be among good people and have the ability to talk about their thoughts, ideas, the latest headlines and to tell their own story.

i started bartending at a local bar and last night was my first night. i only worked for five hours but in those five hours i would have had about two to three chapters of my first book written.. "stories of a bartender." okay, im not writing a book but that'd be a good idea huh?

the hard part about being a bartender is figuring out who is drunk

and who is just stupid.  ~Richard Braunstein

anyway, as i was mixing and pouring the different colored drinks into different shaped glasses, i couldn't help but to think these drinks would make great photographs.

BOTTOMS UP!

caution: photographs may cause the viewer the urge to consume alcoholic beverages.

An intelligent man is sometimes forced to be drunk to spend time with his fools.
~ Ernest Hemingway

you can never go wrong with a dirty martini.

one tequila, two tequila, three tequila, floor.
