Loose Parts by Dave Blazek for January 11, 2023

Alas, poor Yorick! I knew him, Horatio

Served in a skull. Nice touch.

An old fashioned what?

hey, I recognize your glass. It’s Fred from down the street – classy dresser was Fred. A little old……..

Always and I mean always, insist on a fresh skull…just don’t ask how they acquire them.

It’s the unidentifiable floaty bits that make or break it.

For a real life skull cup story.

Pirelli (Chico): “Are you dressed?”

Loophole (Groucho): “Well, after a fashion. And a pretty old fashion. And I wish I had an old-fashioned!”

He must be visiting Wisconsin, where the Brandy Old-Fashion has been perfected and is the most requested cocktail at supper clubs all around the state. Yeah, I know most people call the drink an Old-Fashioned, but I’m one of the 38% who don’t. Brandy Old-Fashion sweet, please. And don’t forget the cherries. Also, a good supper club will have a relish tray, cheese spread, and fresh-baked bread on every table. Enjoy!

More of a Manhattan person myself.

No comments (besides mine) about “horn on Viking helmets” are historically inaccurate?

Which, apparently, leaks out before you can drink it.

‘Skull’ drinking vessels make sure the alcohol goes right to someone’s head.

without the cherry it’s the pits…

Skoal! Or Skull! Whichever.
