FSB, Paul. I got a response. I was surprised. I have sent another e-mail. Their rep gave me a telephone# but I haven't tried to call yet. If I get a response this time perhaps I should try to call.

Thanks again FSB. I did send an e-mail back to the rep at blu and they responded with some info and then I sent another letting them know that I would call in the morning. The longest shot ever, but, it was fun today just talking about it with them. I haven't been involved with a movie since 2007. It would be a cool change from my daily routine now. I'm not complaining about now just thinking how fun that used to be. :D 8)

I put that air condition in the bedroom window and went for my usual walk. It was pretty humid tonight, but not hot, at least. We need some rain around here, but we're not in drought status, yet.

Just finished a sugar rush of chocolate milk and kahlua followed up by an ice cold Cherry Coke. I'll probably be wired up for the night. Whoo Hoo! :lol: FSB

Don't worry, you'll crash sooner or later. :P I've never tried chocolate milk with Kahlua. I've mixed it many times with Russian vodka and cream. The Dude abides. :P

Actually, I didn't start out with the idea of having Kahlua with chocolate milk, it's just that I ran across some great local bottled chocolate milk rather than the paper carton chocolate drink, and Kahlua was handy so . . . I do add orange brandy, Kahlua, Frangelico. or other liqueur to hot chocolate on those 40 below Winter days. As for Black Russians that's a good choice for Kahlua too, but my favourite drink of all is one my father introduced me to decades ago, a Moscow Mule when I can get it or make it. Lucky for me, here where I am visiting family away from home, there is an Irish pub within walking distance, that makes Moscow Mules with vodka, lime, mint, and awesome home made ginger beer. They will make a variety with Irish Whiskey though. I'm thinking of moving in at least until closing time. :D

Note: Canada's vodka drink, originating in Calgary, the Caesar (vodka, Clamato juice, lime juice, Tabasco, Worcestershire (a little celery salt and pepper optional) over ice stirred with a celery stick, is found everywhere, especially during summer. A great brunch beverage. Cheers!

Just got off the telephone with the rep from blu. Really helpful friendly people there.
I learned that Stephen is still close with Jason but stopped being spokes person a year ago. I let them know that if Jason is interested in developing his and Stephen's idea that I would be available to help.
I would have felt that I missed an opportunity if I didn't reach out. Another call back would be cool. I'll let you know should that actually happen.

You are so right to contact those of interest, Rollie. You have to open the door to see what's inside and one just never knows . . . it might lead to an invite for opportunity. Creative people tend to gravitate towards other creative individuals so who knows what will develop? Best of luck.

Ready when you are CB :D FSB

Thanks again FSB.
Kahlua over ice is my favorite sipping drink. If I mix it with vodka (blue label) I become the joker, not a good combo for me. Enjoy though :lol:

My grandparents (on my mother's side, who were Russian and Ukrainian immigrants) made this stuff called vishnovka, which was made with fermented cranberries, although it's also made from sour cherries. I guess it's some type of liqueur that is pretty good mixed with vodka.

I've never had a Moscow Mule, but that sounds pretty good.

That Caesar sounds like a Bloody Mary, which is great breakfast drink, by the way. :P Except, I've just had V8 or tomato juice mixed with vodka, and not added the rest of it that goes into it. The thing about those is it doesn't make your breath all too pleasant, as my girlfriend would attest to. :P I suppose that has a lot to do with the tomato juice, because that can happen without vodka in it. You know, I didn't like V8 as a kid (my dad use to drink it and I had tried some,) but as an adult I like it. I'm like that with a few things. I guess your tastes change when you get older.

That's the thing. You never know unless you try. The worst they can do is say no, or nothing at all. With any luck, they'll get back to you. 8)

Hey, Paul. Mrs, FSB likes Vodka and a touch of CranRas to make a CranTini. Not the same as vishnovka, but pretty good. As for Bloody Mary it sort of grabs me like.a Red Eye Beer (a great hangover cure of tomato juice and beer), neither my faves. For me, I gotta have Clamato juice which is not in all bars, and neither is ginger beer. :cry: Gingerale does work as a poorman's substitute.for Moscow Mules though. I've discovered very nice white (rather than the more common delicious red) Chateau Neuf Du Pape. I gotta get a life and drink the usual stuff. :lol:
I digress as the subject is What Are You Doing? Right now I'm drinking red wine. Gosh! Do I really drink a lot? No. Only if I'm thirsty, and since I'm on the Forum I'm classified as a social drinker.. :lol:
