Thirsty Thursdays at FRIDAY's

I've always been fascinated with "Flair bartending", you know that skill wherein bartenders manipulate bar tools such as cocktail shakers and liquor bottles to entertain guests or customers. So last Thursday I went out with some friends at T.G.I.F. (Friday's) to grab some drink and enjoy the night with some cool bartenders.

This is JP and JM, the bartenders

In this pic you can see an American talking to JM. The American challenged JM to do a flair versus JP. Our group were the judges of the mix JP and JM did. And the verdict!, JP's mix won!


JM doing the Flair!!





Now, if you thought bartenders only know bottle manipulation, think twice! In this act, JM challenged us to a mind game. And since I like challenges especially mind games I relentlessly tried this trick, but in the end I gave up! The beer didn't help! hehe!

You can try this trick by following this steps:
1. Form adjacent or interconnected squares like the one shown above. Use sticks or anything appropriate to form the squares.
2. Now, challenge yourself or anyone to make the 7 adjacent squares into 5 adjacent squares in SIX MOVES. By SIX MOVES, I mean, you only have to move 6 sticks and move it to your desired position.
3. Now the 5 squares must still be interconnected or adjacent and it should still be of the same size.


Now this image is AMAZING! This ain't a trick but Science, probably Physics or Chemistry has some explanation to it. The brandy and water, both in different shotglasses, will be transferred from the other's container. ( shotglass where the water is contained will now have the brandy and vice versa)

There are more tricks but I forgot how it works, it's either I'm busy chatting or medyo umepekto na ang beer, hehe! So yan na lang muna! hehe!!

*By the Way Happy 4th of July Guys! hehe!! :D
