World record broken; TGI Friday's tries to look legit

-
Bobby "G" Gleason cut his teeth in Miami and has had some of the dream jobs of bartenders. He moved to Vegas and opened up some of the hottest bars out there, including his latest at Bellagio. He studied under some of the greats and now he has a world record.

Today he set the world record for the most cocktails in an hour. He made 253 cocktails in 60 minutes and made almost all of them using DeKuyper cordials and Hornitos tequila. Most bartenders average around a cocktail per minute, unless it's a busy Friday night when it seems that they do one every 5 minutes.

On the other side of the spectrum, TGI Friday's named their "Greatest TGI Friday's Bartender in the World." Though I'm sure it takes a ton of talent to whip out a lot of Banana Choco-Tini's on date night, I have a hard time being impressed. It's like being the best clown in the world. Sure, you're the best of something, but it's just kind of creepy.

Only 8 months after real absinthe has become legalized in the U.S., the importers and overseas producers have really started taking advantage of the buzz and mystique that absinthe holds and launching like crazy here. With more absinthe launches than vodka lately, it may not be long until the brands are just as gimmicky. Three new absinthe's have launched this week in hopes of garnering early market share in a soon-to-be-crowded market. La Fee Absinthe Parisienne is made in Paris and has been around for a while as it's been sold in 20 countries for the last 10 years or so. The product is made by traditional standards and the owner of the recipe still approves each batch of La Fee. For a while, Lucid Absinthe was the only one you could get in the US as it wasn't made from the traditional Grand Wormwood (until March of 2007) so it could get away with going around the law. The producers guessed that the stuff that was considered a fake (but still very flavorful) wasn'...

Some thanks and virtual bartender

As of last week we averaged over 1,000 users per day. That's pretty damned cool. I'm surprised to see it myself considering how poor we rank on Technorati, but Performancing.com doesn't lie! In case you live under a rock, the Virtual Bartender are girls that do as you command, just like any good bartender does. They each have a huge list of commands and the most recent version has two girls. The shot pictured is them doing Star Wars. But they make out, shake ass, and many other things (no nudity, but plenty of cheesecake). They seem to do a lot of stuff except being able to make a martini. Brilliant.
