the rite of the Drinkgredients

11/27/08
w/ Dave

starring GIN as Chief Drinkgredient


The dicey ice is removed from the Place of Cold.
They are counted one by one into the chalices.
Whilst so doing, the following is to be thought, silently:
"One for me, one for you..." etc.
The tray of dicey ices is returned to the Place of Cold.

The GIN is removed from the Place of Cold.
She saith, "Let there be GIN,
and there was GIN."

And, there,
is GIN.

"In the beginning, there was GIN, and lo,"
The Shots are poured. "it was poured, and did divide the night from day,"
The Splashes are poured. "and the day from night."

The other DRINKGREDIENTS are removed from the Place of Cold.
She saith, "She spaketh,"
whilst holding in her hand the first Drinkgredient,
"let there be tonic for those who wish tonic,"
--lo, she poureth the Drinkgredient into the appropriate chalice(s),
and placeth it then upon the Surface--
"and juice unto they who wish juice,
in accordance with the prophecy."
This Drinkgredient, also,
she poureth into the appropriate chalice(s)
whilst these words are spoken.
And then, verily, she placeth it upon the Surface.

The onlooker(s) proclaim(eth): "Yea."

The DRINK(S), yea, she distributeth.

The Drinkgredients are returned to the Place of Cold,
whilst she saith,
"And lo, the Drinkgredients were returned to the Place of Cold.
The administration has no further comment."

The Drinks are consumed.
