Where We've Been Drinking: Aqua al 2 We have a fun tradition that we don't get to employ all that often (and that's a good thing, trust me), but when we do it's awfully fun. Whenever one of us begins a new job, a celebratory first...
Where We've Been Drinking: Chaplin's Ramen. Cocktails. Silent Film Era decor. We don't usually think of these things as being particularly strongly related to one another.
