…which clearly, you do.

Silicon Alley Insider thoughtfully posted details regarding the British open today. Live open streams will be available tomorrow (and were today). You have two options:

Starting at 4 am ET, watch the broadcast all day until play is over
Or park yourself in the virtual grandstands and follow the groups at holes #9, 10, and 11 until about 3pm

Now that’s dedication.

See the full post here.

Martini Q3 Offsite – Tahoe in the Summertime

Lauren — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 00:47:28 +0000

I know I promised you photos Friday, but better late than never, Martini Lifers! Our Q3 offsite was everything one would expect from the Martini Team – interesting, effective, and a killer celebration fitting to a successful Q2. We returned to beautiful Lake Tahoe for some hiking, wakeboarding, jet skiing, grilling, and yes, beer.

Ahh, sweet, sweet summer!

Enjoy photos of an afternoon on the lake, below.

More to come in the next couple of days!

Cheers,

Lauren

Perfection.

Our fearless leader.

Marketing gives Tahoe a thumbs-up.

Prepping for some cold, cold water.

Rawk on!

Beverly Hills Concours D’Elegance

Lauren — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 00:06:59 +0000

This past weekend, I was down in Beverly Hills enjoying the (eventual) Southern California sunshine. While making the rounds on Wilshire, I happened upon the Beverly Hills Concours d’Elegance! How fortuitous, and admittedly embarrassing that I didn’t know it was going on in the first place. At any rate, it made me all the more excited for Pebble Beach this August. I took a few photos of my favorite cars – apologies for the shoddy quality, my point and shoot was out of batteries and my blackberry can only do so much. As you can see, I have a penchant for the classics, and red and white, apparently.

Cheers,

Lauren

Photos from Saturday’s Passion Meets Performance

Lauren — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 23:43:55 +0000

This past Saturday, our event Passion Meets Performance was a rousing success. Huge thanks to Aston Martin, Cirrus, Lotus Vodka, Belgrave Trust and Quintessentially for making the day simply fabulous!

I won’t bore you with my commentary, and will let the pictures speak for themselves. I mean, I got to hang out in a Cirrus. Just another day at the office, right?

Cheers,

Lauren

Introducing the Newest Member of the Martini Team…

Lauren — Wed, 13 May 2009 01:16:39 +0000

Maya! The Martini dog!

Our new mascot!

Maya is a 9-week old pure-bred Goldendoodle, newly arrived to the Bay Area and a new fixture in the Martini offices. I’m shocked any of us got anything done today considering all we want to do is play with the puppy… precious!

Cheers,

Lauren

Martini Q2 Offsite – And A Martini Life Weekend!

Lauren — Tue, 28 Apr 2009 02:16:40 +0000

Greetings, Martini friends! Apologies for the long delay – sometimes Martini work gets in the way of Martini play. But no more!

This past week we journeyed to Healdsburg for our Q2 offsite. It was a wonderful, relaxing trip – we stayed right on the Russian river, grilled, drank some wine, and of course brilliantly strategized for the upcoming months.

Some choice photos below, along with some wonderful captures courtesy of team members Jen and Kaitlyn of their sailing trip this weekend.

Contemplating the Russian River.

Wine Tasting in Healdsburg - Phil, Manu, and Paul peruse the selection.

Ryan, getting the tasting started.

Manu and Phil prove that bocce is, truly, a man's game.

Cheers, Tristan!

Paul, the Martini bocce champ. Look at that form!

Just call her captain.
