Well, I'm here in Peoria and I'm on limited time today. I'm staying with my parents and they're the only people left in the world that haven't surrendered to the internet, so I'm here at my brother's apartment, but due to the fact I don't drive, my dad's driven me here and I have limited time to put this together. Usually it takes me an hour or two to put a post up and today I have about ten minutes. Plus I need to check my email, so this is really going to be a quickity blickity blog. I'll try and post more tomorrow, I've got some shots of my trip and also a few from Jerry's Bar. But for now, this is all I got.
Here's my fuel supply for the flight in the bathroom at Laguardia Airport.
Half of the Smart Water is emptied out...
And in goes the vodka!
And pretty soon we're eight miles high in more ways than one. Okay, my dad has to meet friends for lunch, so I gotta go, see you tomorrow after dark. P.S. I'll try to at least include a Nightcap in tomorrow's post. Sneeze ya then!

Hope the TSA doesn't decide to take a sip....
Very clever concoction, improvise, that's the key.
I'm sure Marty would want you to have this.
Incidentally, Marty isn't really in Peoria, he's shooting a cameo on Pan Am. (Not really, have fun in Illinois.)
Have a great time in Peoria, Marty!!! Hope you and your folks are doing well!!!
Hi Marty--have fun!!it is raining cats and doggies here in NYC.
Hope you have a few Butch's Pizza pies !
Welcome 'Home' Daddio,
I doubt it will happen, but if you have any 'free' time give me a shout, maybe I could blast up there.
Have fun, Marty - enjoy a little internet-free time - it can be nice!
Get some V8, perfect for making Bloody Mary's. Enjoy ill noise....hic!
Have a great weekend! Never really got vitamin/smart water (why?) but the Smirnoff looks good! Say hi to Mom & Dad.
@Jaws: They didn't sip this time, I still have to get to get through the trip home though!
@Al: I thought the Smart Water was a good bottle to hide the booze in and it was a successful run.
@csp: Great link! Probably my favorite Byrds songs and a cool clip!
@Lindsay: Thanks, its been a great trip so far!
@Melanie: Thanks! Sorry it's raining there, send my regards from the Midwest to Ray's!
@GENE: I'm hoping to get in a few slices of Butch's!
@"Boris": I wish we could hang out Daddio, but as usual with the wedding and family stuff, I'm pretty swamped. Let's shoot for Christmas!
@Brittta: Thanks! It's been nice to be in an internet free zone!

@Everyone: I'm at my brothers and getting ready to go, I'll try and catch up and comment at some of your blogs tomorrow. Thanks for being patient with a somewhat blah post today!
Thanks for lunch Marty! Was good to visit with ya & see your folks! Enjoy your play in Peoria, I mean stay! Ron
You should take a REAL break from the internet and say screw it for the weekend. We'll all still be here when you get back :)
@Ron: Great meeting you too and a wonderful lunch. Great luck with the benefit and I'll put up a link when you get the PayPal going. And thanks for the return of the John Kay picture by Jim!
@kari: Thanks: but it's one of my obsessions to post something every day and would bug me if I didn't. OCD!
Just when I thought Vitamin Water Zero couldn't get any better...
@Biff: Ha! You need to try out my recipe!
