Hank, it looks like it may be like A list status - it's one thing to get it, but another to keep it.

I'd like the challenge, but I have a meeting. Get this done in the next 45 to 60 minutes, and you won't have to worry.

this is potentially messing with the fabric of time, but here goes.....DO NOT WALK INTO THE STREET W/O LOOKING TO THE LEFT. Bus runs red light.

My understanding is that they all have flappy mouths and they make a lot of fart jokes.

Don't forget all the vulgar bad words they teach children.

I disappear for half the day and half the liquor cabinet almost passes me by. [Glad I logged in before we ended up on the Kahlua drink discussion].

Canadian Whiskey (rye):
Seems to me that Rye has really lost its cachet, while all the market share of the other whiskies has increased dramatically). Hardly anyone seems to drink Rye straight, with the most obvious mixed variant being the "7 & 7." Of the brands, I always preferred the flavor of Seagram's VO, although I wouldn't necessarily consider myself a real fan of the whole Rye genre.

Tequila:
Let me preface this by agreeing with several of the posters here that bad Tequila experiences are hard to recover from. It literally took me 8 years from my fraternity pledging days before I could even smell a glass of Tequila from an adjoining bar patron without becoming nauseated. That being said, I can offer two bits of advice: (1) the better the Tequila, the less sick to your stomach you will become - now this advice may seem somewhat obvious - but it has been my experience that among all the major liquors, the quality of the Tequila is most closely related to one's physical well-being, and (2) after a bad experience, a decent way to slowly get back to drinking Tequila again is by experimenting with premium Tequila Margaritas. The Triple Sec/Cointreau and Lime Juice diffuse the nose and taste of the Tequila substantially such that you won't develop hat "wretching" feeling. And I too agree with the earlier sentiment that the current "high-end" Tequila craze will pass like most fads - however, one cannot dismiss that the craze has resulted in many more brands of fine blue agave tequilas being available stateside, and these are wonderful to sip with nothing more than a few cubes of ice.

Vodka:
I've always been a Stoli loyalist. Period. That is, until they got cute and started making Stoli Limon, and Stoli Peppar, and Stoli Kola, et. al. It's only a matter of time before Stoli starts coming in colors ("Can I have a Blue Stoli and Tonic"). But truthfully, I can't remember the last time I ordered a Vodka out, so I can only say that my cabinet at home has a bottle of Stoli, a bottle of Ketel One (which my "vodka-friends" like the best, along with Belvedere and the Polish vodka Wybyorwa (sp?)) and a default bottle of Absolut (for the people who used to collect the Absolut ads and hang them on their apartment walls as art - you all know a few of these people).

On a side-note, and much like Plated's single-handed crusade to shake up Cahill, I think it should be the duty of this Board to out and boycott any bars that convert to Cold Guinness (gives me the creeps just writing that).

Speaking of rye (which Slave apparently was, a bit back in time), anybody try the boutique stuff being made by Fritz Maytag (of Anchor Steam fame)? Old-skool American rye whiskey, I'm told. Haven't found it here.

The title came from an incident in a hotel in LA, where all of these random people who knew each other from the internet were sort of milling around in the lobby of the hotel that we* were staying in and the general manager of the hotel walked up and yelled "Will the Vampire People Please Leave the Lobby." It sort of became a catch phrase.


*I actually wasn't there. I was probably taking a bar exam.

That title I loved. However, I got the idea from her site that the book would be called Save Firefly, which didn't do much for me.

Something around Q list, I'd think, except among beer/booze nerds.

At least you have that. I don't even get all the shit I posted in 2001. They tell me it was genius, though.
