Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Unfortunately the hotel does not have a shuttle service. Fare-based town car transportation can be arranged through our concierge by contacting concierge@monaco-seattle.com

(As a side note, given that their restaurant is called Sazerac, I hope they do a good one.)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

The recipe's on the restaurant's web page.

The bus from the airport goes right downtown from the airport ($1.75). Sadly, light rail won't be running until after the F2F. There's also a shuttle that goes from the airport to the downtown hotels.

Which is a right and proper Sazerac recipe. I meant I hope the bartenders are good at it, though. One would think, but the mojitos at the bar called Mojito's here in SF are not good, even though they say they're following the recipe. It's tragic, really.

how do you screw that up? Slice lime, put in glass. Add mint and sugar. Muddle with mortar or handle of a wooden spoon. Add rum and ice. ELEMENTARY.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

True story, though. Mojito's mojito's were not nummy.

ELEMENTARY.

Forgot the soda water. (Hee!) Seriously, I do not know how they mess it up, but they do. And Sazeracs are much more complicated.

edit: See, Aims remembers. They were Not Tasty.

Sadly, the memories stops there. I believe that was about when the drinking began ...

WAIT!! I remember walking into the one bar and hearing "Say Hello to the pansies!!" yelled at us and having red-headed sluts.

Good times, man. Good times.

Forgot the soda water.

BLASPHEMY!

I think mojitos are supposed to knock you on your ass. the soda water is just an attempt to make the drink palatable for the casual drinker.
