(Fri Jan 19, 2001 - 5:21:13 pm)
Chewing Wax:
Hello Decoy. Didn't see you there. Lurking. I bet you don't have one like that.
(Fri Jan 19, 2001 - 5:21:46 pm)

Alright, you got me. But I do have a martini pitcher.

(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 1:13:00 pm)
Decoy:
Correctly describe the new coat of arms and win free drinks for life at Decoy's Lounge!
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 4:14:21 pm)
:
a coat with a bunch of arms hanging off it.
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 4:39:46 pm)
m©:
on a black background.
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 4:40:51 pm)
Chewing Wax:
It's... it's... indescribable.
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 5:39:00 pm)
Decoy:
Oh, come and try ...
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 5:50:13 pm)
Decoy:
I have no idea how it looks in Netscape, I only hope things line up correctly. I will test it later.
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 5:55:15 pm)
Decoy:
Or, what the honored Decoy's Lounge Crest means to me.
I have to go pick up a pizza, I'll be back to grade your papers in a while.

Myk Murphy:
i, for one, feel that the new coat of arms is the right message for a new century. er, something like that. i dig the duck decoys flanking the top martini glass. nothing says "panache" quite like that.
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 6:51:42 pm)
Decoy:
One more tweak, there - that's it.
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 6:54:25 pm)
Myk Murphy:
even more panache? the shaker is a nice touch.
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 6:55:07 pm)
Myk Murphy:
ah, clever. the lower left clock simply uses my local PC's time. that works well.
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 6:56:55 pm)
Decoy:
The message from Decoy's Lounge for the new century in general is, "Enjoy your cocktail and don't be so goddamn serious about everything!"
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 6:57:12 pm)
Decoy:
Myk, care to have a go at deciphering the crest?
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 6:58:29 pm)
Myk Murphy:
ok, here goes....
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 7:00:03 pm)
Myk Murphy:
it appears to pay homage to glenfiddich and crown royal, as well as the aforementioned duck decoys and martinis. lemondrop shooters, as well? the translucent gold chevron on the brick wall is too oblique for me, as is the item at the chevron's summit.
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 7:04:43 pm)
Myk Murphy:
i forgot to mention the bird with the bowtie. a nod to smartly-dressed patriotism, perhaps?
(Sat Jan 20, 2001 - 7:05:44 pm)
Decoy:
Ok, here we go:
At the bottom we have the scoll name of the establishment -given by Chewing Wax himself
The background of the emblem is dirty red brick representing the inside of most of my favorite dive bars from all around the world - finished drywall is not suitable
The eight neon martini glasses represent the eight drink minimum
The Moosehead honors or friends to the north for brewing the worlds finest beer, ales, and pilsners
The bowtied carrion bird symbol of america in the center stands for service to our country and to the world
The royal crown honors HRH.
Above the crown is the wattle, you can stick it in a bottle, you can hold it in your hand.
The twin decoy mallards represent myself and Wax somehow floating through life if fine styleee
The cocktail shaker, is the mixologist's primary tool, without it there is no synthesis, no creative discoveries of things new and interesting
The yellow chevron in the middle represents the color of the whites of our eyes after a long night in the lounge; though we all manage to meet the day besides.
And of course, at the top of pyramid shape cast by the chevron is your liver.

Decoy:
When I made it, i should have made it bigger and shrunk it; that's the only size I havre it in.
