FOR $10.85 I WILL DRINK A BABY RUSSIAN

Here's the deal – I’m pretty much tapped out in the cash department. So if any of you out in the blogosphere could float me $10.85 I should be fine for the rest of the week. What will you get for your money? My undying gratitude? Yeah, I figured  that wouldn’t fly either.  That’s why I’m throwing down the gauntlet. If I get 57, no, 100 comments (or the $10.85) I PROMISE TO RECORD MYSELF DRINKING A BABY RUSSIAN. What’s a BABY RUSSIAN you ask? Well it’s pretty much like the Dude’s favorite libation with one slight ingredient change. 

BABY RUSSIAN DRINK RECIPE

1 oz. Vodka (25 oz. per bottle)

0.5 oz. Godiva Mocha Liqueur (25 oz. per bottle)

2 oz. cream

1 sprinkle(s) nutmeg

Instead of the white stuff I add in good ol’ Similac (advanced formula).

So to sum up, if I DON'T get 100 comments (for this post) or $10.85 I will NOT be downing a BABY RUSSIAN for you all.  It’s not a threat, just a promise. Tick tock. Tick tock.

DUDE! LEBOWSKI FEST IS COMING!

The Coen brothers have been responsible for some amazingly, f--- up films. Fargo, Blood Simple, Raising Arizona to name a few classics. However, none have skyrocketed (with bowling ball in hand) to cult status faster than The Big Lebowski. Jeff Bridges starred as Jeffrey Lebowski – the ultimate loafer and the self-proclaimed, “Dude!” Together with his bowling buddies, the Shabbat celebrating psycho Walter Sobchak (John Goodman), and an oddly subdued Steve Buscemi (Donny) they battled kidnappers, a pornographer/loan shark and DeGEEZUS. The movie is definitely up there on the comedy scale. Though I think it’s THE DUDE-ian “whatever man” way of life that has had such a deep impact with fans. So much so that a tribute festival was born – Lebowski Fest. This 8-city tour consists of 2 days worth of Lebowski-centric events which include: live scene performances, bowling, a movie screening and of course all the White Russians (Caucasians) you can drink. It all starts in September. So check out the site to find out when the Achievers will be rolling into your alley.
