3. No biggie, I'm versatile.
Tequila, though, still makes me queasy, even fifteen years after the incident for which we have become mortal enemies.

8. That happens
The problem with Tequila for me, is that it never lets you know how drunk you are.

Beer and Ales are always good for that!

19. Yes, beer is a precision drunkenness measurement.
I can't drink it like I used to (I can't drink anything like I used to), though, because it gives me indigestion. Maybe when I lose some more weight, I'll be able to put it back on with beer. ;)

9. Yeah yeah yeah
I've heard that - but to me it all tastes like Lysol.


That's just me tho - my wife thinks my particular poison (India Pale Ale's) tastes like Pine Sol.

13. Stoli usually
But I've become very fond of Absolut's limited edition New Orleans vodka - mango and black pepper. Sounded disgusting at first but you don't taste black pepper, just mango.

Goes delightfully with Safeway diet grapefruit soda. :9

Oh, sorry; I re-read your post; now I know you don't mean ACTUAL poison.

14. Keep in mind, there is nothing wrong with admitting to girly drinks
Sex on a Beach or even the classic Margarita is nothing to be ashamed of...

I just prefer the well crafted brew.

17. "Girls in short dresses and glowing eyeshadow"
"Jaager or some other drink served by girls in short dresses and glowing eyeshadow"

Or as we in downtown Manchester call her, our school board member!

Just teasing her. Jen Peabody, a bartender who was elected to our school board, is a terrific young woman and a good Obama supporter as well!
