Visit The Blue Whale for real!
« on: August 28, 2008, 07:44:14 PM »
I wanted to find out if there's a real bar called "The Blue Whale" so a did a search and here's what I found in part.

and here a couple of drinks called A Blue Whale

I guess there's no copywrite on the name.

I scanned for DS references but no... the second is a gay place and I LOLed at this:

I think if you ordered tea, you'd get a hunky man in a Speedo grabbing your crotch, which is a fine alternative, given that I really don't like tea anyway.

Well, each of us has his and/or her personal preferences as to beverage and/or places to be physically grabbed and whom to have it done by, I suppose...

I'm not gay but I'd still go to a bar called The Blue Whale, just to say I went. I'd even buy their t-shirt, I think. [ghost_smiley]

The url for the 2nd recipe has been fixed and should work now.

I didn't it before but the first recipe says to serve the Blue Whale in a Collins glass! [ghost_smiley] Now I know that's a "Tom Collins" glass but it's still cool. I'm gonna have to get me a Collins glass and make me a Blue Whale. Maybe I'll get costume made Collins glasses with a Blue Whale logo instead of shot glasses.

OMG!  I've made the second recipe for years (except I just one part of the sour - makes it a tad "stronger") for years and didn't even know it was named a Blue Whale!

That's great service.

Thanks, but the Preview feature is provided for posters to check for working links (pasting URLs instead of typing them will help a lot, I'm sure) or for working smileys, quotes in need of trimming, and typos.  Except for the typos, these problems otherwise falls to the mods, who are editing mucho lately.
