Facebook, Twitter! Facebook profiles, Twitter streams, social media that allow a student to connect with a teacher or a coach, good idea or bad? The question posed to the Bartender and the Life Coach in Episode 11 does not have a simple answer in our opinion. As an adult in a position of influence, as a teacher or perhaps a coach, means that we carry a certain responsibility level to our students. If we allow those students to connect with us through social media, are we helping or hindering the positive impact we are attempting to have? Certain social medias, such as Twitter,...

Glee Is Back!! Glee!! Love it, hate it, have no idea what it is? Well, in North America you would have to never watch TV and live under a rock to not know what this television phenomenon is!  However, my visitors from the UK did not know what it was about, so for those of you that don't know, let's talk "Glee", the newest sensation on TV. And of course, a great excuse for a theme party! Quite simply it is a musical/comedy/drama, set around a high school glee club. A personal favorite show of mine, I love the quick-witted scripts, the singing and dancing, and the character...

Jesse James and Sandra Bullock are still the Hollywood buzz as we continue our great Drink Guy fans discussion in Episode 10 of TDG TV!  This time with the help of a male fan we discuss whether Sandra has any fault in the affairs, and why did they not learn from Tiger Woods? As the story goes Sandra Bullock apparently appears completely oblivious as her famous husband Jesse James, has his way with anyone and everyone who walks through the front door, apparently following the example of Tiger Woods! Is it necessarily Sandra's fault for being away working all the time, while Jesse's...

There was a party online tonight with some of the awesome Drink Guy fans...what a total blast! It started so simply, with a suggestion that a "Shot Shared Around the World" by some of the FaceBook Drink Guy fans would be fun. When the questions began to come in about what shot could be created with the ingredients that people had available, our bartender Glenn came to the rescue, and created a fun and fabulous party on the fan page! The shot, a "6/49" ...is a "random" shot named after the Canadian lottery, and the process is simple, fun, and the results are interesting!! To...

The Pickup line, I've heard them all.  Being a bartender definitely has its privileges.  As I've stated earlier we get to see and hear everything. One such observation, albiet extremely humorous as time passes and more alcohol is consumed, is the mating ritual of the homosapien. The mating ritual generally begins immediately upon entry into the bar.  First off we all need to check out the scene. Don't kid yourself we all do it, guys, girls, bartenders, servers, busboys, doorman, the DJ etc.  Anyone drinking, working or sometimes both, does it. We need to see who's available,...
