Sleep Out&#8217;s was our Sunday brunch spot at the time, but brunch tended to last a lot longer there&#8230; sometimes we were still there at 9 or 10 PM. That was the case for the Sunday of the long weekend. We were having whipped cream fights and trying a new drink Emma the bartender had heard about, the duck fart.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">According to iDrink.com, here&#8217;s how you make a duck fart:<\/span><br \/>\n1 oz. Coffee Liqueur<br \/>\n1 oz. Irish Cream<br \/>\n1 oz. Rye\/Whiskey<\/p>\n<p>Those ingredients may not sound like they&#8217;d go together, but it comes out tasting like a glass of chocolate milk. Very, very alcoholic chocolate milk.<\/p>\n<p>Why not enjoy a duck fart this fine Memorial Day, and raise your glass in a toast to the men and women who have served in this country&#8217;s military? Inside tip: Coffee drinkers tell me that a duck fart makes an excellent addition to your coffee on a weekend morning.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike Friday and Saturday, I don&#8217;t have a lot of photos to recap the day. Yesterday was kind of a FAIL all the way around. I should&#8217;ve eaten at the Majestic but didn&#8217;t. Plans for a pool party fell apart. I went home about 7 to take a one-hour nap, and woke up to find it had become a 6-hour nap. Then again, it wasn&#8217;t a horrible day by any means. Played pool with friends, and lost a best-2-of-3 series when my friend Dennis made an amazing bank shot in the side. Mary Pat modeled her 1970s lime green tube top. Tom Shelton brought me a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinkpigapparel.com\/\">Pink Pig<\/a> baseball cap.<\/p>\n<p>As for today, not much going on&#8230; the Redbirds have a home game at 1:05 if you feel like watching some baseball. As far as I know the regular Monday night poker game with Poker Jon and Brick is still on. And, of course, it&#8217;s Pint Nite at the Flying Saucer, with most drafts only $3. Don&#8217;t let the word &#8220;Nite&#8221; fool you: Pint Nite starts at 11 AM and lasts all day. Got an hour until the Saucer opens, so I think I&#8217;ll pop open a PBR left over from the pool party that wasn&#8217;t, and get this holiday started right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the best Memorial Day memories for me happened on Memorial Day Eve 2006, at Sleep Out Louie&#8217;s.
