Yo-Yo Shaker

Don't lie, you wanted to be Tom Cruise in Cocktail... Shakin' it up and throwin' stuff around then at the end of the night going home with Gina Gershon who also sleeps with your best friend then you go to some island and meet Elizabeth Shue and fall in love only to find out she's having your baby and her father can't stand you but you take her anyway and open up your own bar.

This little gadget is the first step to having all that and more! The Y0-Yo Shaker (no relation to famed cellist Yo Yo Ma) allows you to fill it up with the goods then huck it at someone. But look! It has a string that attaches to your finger and rolls out just like a yo-yo! It comes right back, just like a bowling ball doesn't!

Turns out this is not original, but a repeat of something from 40 years ago. See the following e-bay listing for a vintage Yo-Yo mixer:

Very cool! Not that I care if it's original or not, but interesting that it's on a concept site.

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.

Electric Martini Maker

Martini's are such a difficult concept that Waring thought they would make it easier on all of us. Okay, so I know that the reason for having this is for Coolness Value and not for the idea that you actually need a machine to mix your martini's. The Waring Pro Electric Martini Maker can take your concoction and do the tedious work of mixing it by either stirring or shaking, depending on which button you press. Remember kids, stir gin, shake vodka. The on light even has a green olive on it. But what if I want a twist?

Bluecoat Gin Review

The bottle of Bluecoat Gin arrived the other day and I ripped in to it with vigor. My newfound love for Gin has become boundless and when I get a new one I put it ahead of the line of all the other stuff that I still need to try and review. I was like a kid on Christmas Day, however I was heavily medicated and had to patiently bide my time until I was no longer popping pills in order to try it out lest my liver implode leaving a dark, black hole in my innards of Mickey Mantle proportions. How's it look? The bottle comes pretty much as advertised. It's a simple blue bottle with Bluecoat on it and a coat of arms. The cap is an easy-to-pull cork that did not make me do any sort of contortion in order to get it open. Thank you Bluecoat Gin! What's it smell like? One word: OhMyGod. This is far and away the best smelling gin I have ever put my nostrils to. The juniper and floral notes were amazing and did not take any time to get used to. Most gins require two whiffs: One...
