I’ve Been Lego’d By Andrew Bohrer
After having a spread in Penthouse, I wasn’t sure my happiness could get any higher (well, outside of someone making a Dr. Strange movie with Neilalien directing), but then pal and bartending genius and good-natured fella Andrew Bohrer put me in the best blog post ever, which is on his blog Cask Strength. It’s all about bartending-and-cocktailian-and-drinking-and-drink-writing folk that Andrew has met or sipped with or had to throw out of his bar, people that he has now artistically made into Lego people. It’s amazing and I was lucky enough to be Lego’d in it. Not only did he get me little lego shorts and a nice shirt (and matched my hairstyle) but he said “always showing off his legs and books”–that, I love. There are also many other Lego’d drinky folks, including amazing people like the King, Dale DeGroff, and Paul Clarke from the Cocktail Chronicles. You should check it out right now, not only for the Lego-ing madness, but also for Andrew’s humor and writing style, too. He will have you laughing all the way to the bar.

Though the Lego AJ is bold and awesome I just gotta know WHO would play Dr. Strange in your fantasy movie???

Stereo, I like ‘em too–I might even have to get some legos now.
Jonny, you know, I’ve thought a lot about that very thing. I was thinking Depp, but you’d have to have the right director to keep him focused (as Dr. Strange is focused as well as mystical), like del Toro. On the flip side, getting someone like Clooney, who can play that focused guy, but he’d need someone to trip him out a bit here and there–like del Toro. Really, as long as he was directing, I’d be down. What do you think?

I dunno. . . I think it would absolutely HAVE to be a del Toro-like director and I could see ‘em going with an actual movie star. Then again, they could always pick a non-star like Timothy Olyphant or something. Most of all. . . I just want to see “Eternity” in action!

Oh yeah. . . I saw “Wine Cocktails” at the grocery store this morning! A pleasant surprise indeed!

I want to see Eternity in action too–and Dormammu. And sweet on the Wine Cocktails–hopefully you convinced some local shopper to pick it up.

It’s a “go” project. Of course, there’re no details yet, but. . . could be rad!

Wow, at least there is some interest, and it could be rad. Of course, not as good as the 1970s TV movie . . .
