Pay no attention to my detractors, **jjjfishe**. They are all impotent to do anything but take swipes at the glorious elegance that is **Tymp**.

Ohh, I’d like a red dragon. It’s a drink Uke made for me. You do know how to make it, dontcha? You don’t? I really can’t blame you. It’s lime juice, cranberry and club soda. Wing one towards me!

Oh, and thanks for inviting me! No one usually notices me. ::pout::

Glad you could make it red\_dragon! I’ll do my best to make your red dragon. Here… see if that tastes alright!

Hands Jubei2k a crown and coke… I love that sexy Sinatra voice.

Here’s another Guiness Moe… you’re first one is almost empty.

Extra large glass of Tequila for Voguevixen… Coming up!!

Tymp… despite the rumors… you’re a very good dancer!!!

Well . . . I do aim to please. Enough about me. Tell me about yourself. I just want to stare into your eyes while you tell me everything. Is that too intrusive, too forward of me? I must admit, I’m quite smitten already. You move like a dream and look like an angel.

Mmm, perfect! Got any really high power stuff? Good, this’ll do ::picking up Jack Daniels::

Now, everyone away from the bar!

::pours on the whiskey and lights it. The resulting flames light up the whole place::

You didn’t think I was actually gonna drink it, did you? I feel just like Jimi Hendrix…

Happy 100th!! Now, if it’s not too much trouble, I’d like a TKO (that’s Tequila, Kalauha and Ouzo (Sambuca will suffice for Ouzo) BTW, it tastes just like Nyquil. “It’s the get stupid, stumble around, fall down, so you can get arrested medicine.” Apologies to Vicks corp.
