Re: Today is Stikpusher’s birthday.
Many thanks guys. As gifts, anything from the plastic fairies was done by me, for me, off of eBay, and the latest kit just happened to arrive yesterday on my birthday… 
My kids did pool together for a killer neon sign for my man cave which I have nicknamed the “Rowdy Ben Saloon” after our family’s pet tortoise who likes to come inside the house on occasion and make messes like some old west cowboy. Since my man cave has a wet bar it’s only natural. Speaking of which I also received a bottle of Lillet Blanc so I can try my hand at making the fabled Vesper Martini…
Life is good!

That’s cool! I got a bottle of blackberry whiskey. Not bad at all.

Re: Today is Stikpusher’s birthday.
That is so cool! I'd love to see a pic of the neon sign, if the tortoise is in the pic, all the better! I'm interested in a Vesper Martini; I've never heard of one of those.

Re: Today is Stikpusher’s birthday.
Well, the tortoise now lives in central Phoenix, so getting a photo with him and the sign is not likely. Not to mention that he really does not like to be picked up. I guess it’s a natural defense thing with birds of prey that try to pick them up. Once I get the sign mounted, I’ll get a photo.
As far as the Vesper Martini goes, here are the ingredients:
Ingredients
3 ounces gin
1 ounce vodka
1/2 ounce Lillet blanc aperitif
Garnish: lemon twist
Strong stuff!
