Just as well we've got the cables for rehab shock therapy.

And they make some great E.S.S.s, of course. Speaking of E.S.S.s...**climbs into the hot-tub, switches it onto spa mode and starts SLURRing**

[Eerhardt]

LOL, Ode... been a while since we actually used the cables . Been a while since I had a smoke, too... ** lights a spliff, takes a hit and passes it on to Ode **

[Ode to a Grasshopper]

Here's hoping the wires are still insulated...

BTW, I've got an idea for a new drink...purple beer! Shall we see if we can work out a recipe?

**Takes a hit from the spliff, then heads down to the lab and starts work on the problem of how to get purple beer. The research is hindered somewhat by generous sampling for taste.**

[Eerhardt]

Personally, I like the thought of black beer. I think it would mix well with tea . Just kidding, Ode; although...
I found this recipe. I think it has an appropriate name:
Barney's Revenge
(Long drink)
3 cl ABSOLUT
2 cl Blue Curacao
1 cl Apricot Brandy
18 cl Raspberry Syrup

Combine in blender with ice and blend at high speed. This purple drink may look harmless and tame but you will not know what hit you.

Hey guys ! How about some breakfast ? I brought some ham, eggs, sandwich, cress, onions ....

Are you up to some cooking ? You absolutely WON'T let ME do the cooking. Believe me !

**walks over to the hottub and rolls in headfirst, comes up gargling some E.S.S.**

**A final cloud of purple smoke (with a hint of apricot scent) billows up from the secret lab. Ode returns, carrying a newly brewed tray of purple beer** Here's the first batch. I think black beer is a good idea too, we'll have to work on that too. Credit for the purple beer idea cannot go to me, unfortunately, this link shows the origins of the inspiration for purple beer.
Maybe if we were to offer Fas "herbal" tea that might work? I've tested it before, it does actually work quite well.

EDIT-Breakfast! Thanks Beldin, I'm starved! Don't worry, the microwave I won from Stilgar has auto-cook, I'll just put the food in there for a few minutes. I forgot to mention I'd set it up above the oven, so if you want to microwave anything from now on you know where it is.

[Eerhardt]

Ode, I like the idea of offering Fas "herbal" tea. Next time he shows up, I'd say go for it ** downs a glass of purple beer ** Excellent, Ode!
** starts cutting the cress and onions, throws some of it into a pan along with a sandwich, ham and 3 eggs and generously pours some Jack Daniels over it, then puts the result of his cooking on a plate, cuts off a piece and tastes it ** Mmm,... just like momma used to bake them: it's another family recipe ** prepares 2 more eggs for Beldin and Ode and puts them on plates **

[Ode to a Grasshopper]

Thank goodness one of us can cook.

**Tries a bit of breakfast** Nice, goes great with the purple beer.

To be honest, my cooking is mostly limited to various egg recipes, microwaved food or "add water"-type packages . I have to agree on the purple beer going great with the eggs, here ** downs another pint of purple beer and takes yet another one off the tray ** It's refreshing!

**between 2 SLURRs from the hottub**

BTW - next Monday is another holiday here, so I won't be around . But don't let that slow down the party !

**climbs out of the tub and gets his brakfast**

How about a spliff for dessert ?

[Ode to a Grasshopper]

I'm a student of the "Look-hungry-and-wait-for-someone-else-to-do-it" school of cooking, though after my experince with S.S.I.s I can microwave just about anything, often to it's (and my own) detriment. Lucky for me a lot of my mates like to cook.

[Beldin]

ROFL @Ode..I know how it is....when you're stoned nearly EVERYTHING will be microwaved.....you just don't have the patience for "real" vcooking in that situation...

**lights up a spliff and inhales - looking deeply satisfied**

[Ode to a Grasshopper]

And that includes attempts to thaw out frozen chocolate biscuits.... Did you know chocolate biscuits can burn?

And that potatoes cannot be microwaved whole?

[Beldin]

No, I didn't know that....(note to self: don't try that...)

I'm more of a specialist when it comes to microwaving frozen pizza - after putting on some extras which just come to mind when putting it on the plate.....(don't ask...... )
