.......Well this is me back at home (FL) for about 6 days then I'm moving because of all these hurricanes. Havn't practiced since early sept we stayed with a cousin that's "in recovery" which meant no flairing with my empty bacardi bottle (okay so I did practice for a little but not for long and very unenthuised) I'll be in Southern California which is great. The wierdest experience during my evacuation was while I stayed in NorthCarolina... Gastonia. Which apperas to be normal but it's just coming away from being a dry county!! Man it took me days to find the ABC because it was a blank building and NO SIGN! When I did find it, it was like a fine jewley store. Soft carpet, slightly dim lighting, the scent of potpourri, table cloths fake fruit classical music (I think Greensleeves) spotlights on the bottles and a glass enclosed showcase at the counter totally surreal. Unlike ours here in FL which are trashy yet with enough lighting to run an operating room and have a tendency to play classic rock or country I've even seen the cashier smoking at the register but we're the laid back T-shirt state anything goes keep your stuck up norther attitude north of the mason-dixon line. Although, I bet it'd be easy to get a job in Gaston cnty NC because hardly anyone has the exp. When I was there I saw in the paper they were trying to enstate a law that requires tenders to pour from a 2oz. bottle. What's that about? I could just imagine the mini MkrsMrk with the faux wax being ordered just so people could get their jollies watching you wrestle with it. And flairing with a 2ozer..LOL the mental image alone That's it I'm out.... --CN
