You’re gonna need a bigger glass – the Jumbo 48 oz Cocktail Shaker

admin — Fri, 06 Aug 2010 22:35:31 +0000

Okay, so I wasn’t really anticipating exactly how large this jumbo 48 ounce cocktail shaker really was, but now that it’s here? Don’t know how I lived without this sucker. Honestly, 48 oz didn’t seem like a lot to me when I was merrily ordering, but when you consider (in retrospect, like I did) that a personal-sized bottle of soda is 20 oz? That’s a lot! It has certainly come in handy, though, as my friends and I have all started putting down the beer and getting into mixed drinks for our poker night, and now I don’t have to go through the whole Tom Collins assembly routine more than once.

If you entertain a lot or have a regular poker night or guy’s night, this thing would be awesome. Just triple or quadruple the ingredients (depending on what you’re making and if it’ll fit, of course), dump em in, and make yourself a delicious barn silo-sized drink to divvy up with your friends. You may think you’ve seen big cocktail shakers before, but until you’ve seen this cocktail shaker, I can tell you that you haven’t seen anything yet.

Although they started out as upstanding citizens, the James brothers, Frank and Jesse, will forever be remembered as the leaders of one of the most notorious gangs in American Western Lore. The only gang more feared than the James gang was the Cowboys. The James brothers first started to get attention during the American Civil War when they were accused of crimes against the Union. They moved west where they continued to live lives of crime. Some historians try to romanticize the story of the James brothers, while other historians condemn them. Weather you believe Frank and Jesse James were Western Robin Hoods, or outlaws doesn’t really matter. Either way you will be proud to add the Deluxe Frank and Jesse James Boxed Set Non-Firing Replica Gun to your collection of Western paraphernalia.

The Deluxe Frank and Jesse James Boxed Set Non-Firing Replica Gun features a M1873 Replica fast draw pistol which is non-firing.

Have you ever tried playing beer pong on a ping pong table? It’s a bit of a hassle isn’t it? If a ball hits a cup, there’s always the chance the cup will tip over and create a mess or the cups may shift. That means after every ball is thrown, somebody has to realign the cups which could not only get annoying, but take most of the excitement out of the game. Also, as the game progresses, people don’t have the best coordination which, once again, could cause a spill. Never worry about these petty problems again with the 7.5 ft Football Beer Pong Table.

The 7.5 ft Football Beer Pong Table is the perfect table for any occasion, not just football themed parties, although the design of the football yard markers, end zones and mid-field marker makes it the perfect super bowl party table. The black triangles at each side are rubberized to hold the cups in place better than a normal table. It’s not quite a long as recreational ping pong tables making shots easier to make, plus, there’s no need to worry about taking the net off. It also folds down into a convenient carrying case for easy carrying and storage. This Beer Pong table is a must buy for anybody who enjoys playing beer pong on a table or anyone who hosts a beer party.

Avoid Nature’s Annoyances with Screen Room

In my experience, the act of camping brings with it great opportunities for relaxation, good food, and camaraderie. All of these things, though, can be easily ruined by a prevalence of mosquitoes, gnats, or any other of nature’s annoyances. This is one part of camping that I’m sure we could all do without–let’s say that you’re having a picnic and, having just set out a plate of burgers and some potato salad, you turn around to grab more food. Next thing you know, ants are crawling all over the food! This is where the 10 x 10 ft. Screen Room comes in. No longer is it necessary to keep a hawkeye on the food just to keep it safe from predation. Instead, just set-up your table(s) in the screen room and serve, being sure to close the included screen door to prevent those pesky intruders from your hard-earned keep!

The shelter afforded by the Screen Room doesn’t only protect against predators big and small, but also against nature’s elements as well. Freak rain shower? No problem. An unsheltered picnic out would be, of course, quickly ruined by such an occurrence, not to mention the unpredictable wind, thunderstorms, or anything else nature can throw at you. With this shelter you’re afforded the insurance to enjoy your meals without worrying about nature in the process.
