Kirk is actually kind of gamey, but if you like that sort of thing, be my guest. He's pretty stringy too.

Sometimes with ice. (It is frequently above 115 F here)

I've noted that the quantity is directly proportional to the number of Dorniers involved with the replays recently.

I've never seen that brand in St. Louis. Is it better than regular Bombay?

Doesn't matter I guess, I've gone Japanese so I'll be having hot sake from now on.

It's nationally distributed and is extremely good. Strongly recommended.

I thought the only hot beverages you Gorn-types drank was blood, whilest pulsatile pumping from the carotid?

They suggest sticking a slice of cucumber either on the side of the glass or skewered with a toothpick. Cool idea.

I wouldn't waste the stuff in a G&T though.

The best martinis are those prepared per the instructions of W. C. Fields, namely, add gin then pass the shadow of a vermouth bottle over it. If you're interested in something different, get some concentrated lime juice and add it to your gin, and then you have a Gimlet. In any case, do not shake or stir (or use vodka, bleahh) because there's not enough time for that.

Another nice one (for you Brits out there) is to take your favorite gin and add Schweppe's bitter lemon. Its fabulous in the summer. Do not use any other brand (you can't get Shweppe's in the US anymore), Canada Dry does not measure up. I can't use either as I'm allergic to quinine.

Status: offline 		it used to be Pepsi, then a Doctor told me my Blood pressure was too high. So I started drinking caffeine free pepsi. Then a Doctor told me I was a diabetic. Then it was Diet Pepsi....took a while to get used to but it was giving my belly the bloats. Now it is Unsweetened Lipton Pureleaf Tea with large ammounts of Splenda to make it somewhat drinkable. And my wife says she doesn't want me using chemicals {splenda} because she's afraid of me getting cancer.

I've learned the following...
1. Stop listening to doctors!
2. Stop listening to my wife.....no, that'll never work. Maybe if I just don't bother her with the details of my drinking problem.

Have you tried wearing goggles when you swim then? That may help reduce the irritation a bit.

Your ancestors didn't fight their way to the top of the food chain so some kill-joy could tell you want to eat and drink. Live dangerously..., and enjoy what time you get.
