Remembering Our Friend Tom Newby
#11
I'm gonna shake one up right now for Tom. It was either that or some "Platinum" Patron shots!
If you are a Martini drinker, tonight might be the night to raise one to Tom with a "Newby Special." You have to order it like this:
"I'll have a Grey Goose Martini (pause and look deep into the bartender's eyes to make sure he gets it), extra dry (repeat pause and stare), extra cold (repeat pause and stare) extra olives (repeat pause and stare), up!"
And you when you say "up," you have to stick both thumbs in the air and smile a killer smile.
The guy was an absolute character, and he inhaled life.
