(Sorry about the multiple POSTs...I'm trying to get enough in to change my "rat" moniker and so I can apply to the "Garbage Can".

start your own blog....you should get to 200 in no time at all!!

He's over 90 days, I thought it was either/or.

I will be in the Madison area next week, first thing I will order will be a Spotted Cow.

Dude, if you're in the Madison area next week, the New Glarus Brewery is only about 1/2 hour away!!!

Thanks for the heads up Iron Mike. I know the area very well. If time permits it would be nice to check out the brewery, if not, I'll just enjoy the products. Can't wait to be back in the old stompin' grounds. Golfing at the Springs is another for sure thing.

[Iron Mike]

Also some damned vodka and orange juice is just SO GOOD!

Why mess around with a screwdriver when you could be drinkin' an Alabama Slammer???

Tequila, straight out the bottle or in a cup. No need for mixing it with anything.

hoooWHAHHHH!! That shit is not playing around.

<==drank too much Monte Alban after "Urban Cowboy" came out.



I could still probably down a salty chihuahua or two ot six!!!!

[MadtownPacker]

YEAH!! Thats what IM talking bout playas! Skip the sweet shit, dont mix anything. That is like putting hay in a joint.

Whatever it is, out the bottle in a paper bag. Take a damn drink before you even put the keys in the ignition.

Straight Jack on the rocks. Or a decent Irish Whiskey on the rocks (Tullamore Dew, Bushmills, etc.)

Two excellent Irish Whiskeys! I like both of them better than the 3rd major player---Jameson's.

Straight booze on the rocks is the way to go.

Knob Creek is better than Jack's IMO, although look out---it's 100 proof.

Scotch is nice ... a true "Scotch snob" drinks it straight, with maybe a bit of water---not cold on the rocks. I am not such a snob. On the rocks is fine ... who wants a warm drink?

Glenlivet and Glenfiddich are the ones you can find at most any Pick'n Save, but some other good ones to try if you can find them are Highland Park, Oban, Lagavulin & Talisker.

And of course, the Brandy Old Fashioned & Brandy Manhattan are staples, with Korbel Brandy for best results.

As you might guess, with all this taste for liquor, I almost never get around to drinking beer!

Why bother with the ice? Your nose will be warm and your throat will be hot by the time it gets down anyway.

There's another brand that's quite nice that you didn't mention but I can't think of the name of it right now. It was along the same lines as Talisker. Paint thinner with a woody finish.

[the_idle_threat]

I think I prefer the ice because I'm accustomed to a cold drink. Then I sip it, and let it warm while savoring the taste. Sometimes I do the warm-with-water trick, and very occasionally sip it warm 'n straight.

Depends on the occasion.

There was one more brand I was thinking of too, whose name I could not remember, but I found it here : Laphroaig. Also a good one!

[MJZiggy]

That's really cool, but it was Laphroig I was trying to think of last night.

Haha! Those were the days.

I once drank Tequila for four days one night. Ripped!!!

Didn't even recognize close friends out that night, and tipped glasses of water at the table, for two more. The fourth day - I started to recover.

Julia a Maritimer 'Lady' - said this:

"No one drinks like a Canadian, no Canadian drinks like a Maritimer, no Maritimer drinks like a Cape Bretoner!"

Of course, she hails fr. Cape Breton ,Nova Scotia, in the Maritimes - Canada.

I don't believe her.

Is that good brandy? That is what I use and its very inexpensive. It gets the job done.

Drowning your sorrows?

[packinpatland]

I like a good bordeaux..............straight up.
But then again, any wine that doesn't have a twist top is ok too.

[Partial]

Drowning your sorrows?

Not really. It's just beautiful out and I have a ton of booze left from Anna's going away party. I've actually been drinking a cocktail every night before bed lately.
