soda: a chronic problem in this house. but not for long because soon we will have this:

xp if those two think they're hiding their cigarettes from the camera, they are mistaken

i haven't been there. why did do they call the dead dog their "son"??

rate these liquor store prices
pyrat $32
10 cane $37
barbancourt i don't remember, they had 4 and 8yr

also sailor jerry's - shit or the shit?

why did do why did do

woody's might be cool in a cheesy way

those prices seem on par to our liquor stores.

maybe estela can give us some perspective on the dog question. certainly no one in this house can. also, isn't woody a weird name for a dog?

that said, i would go to woody's, yeah, totally.

sailor jerry's is SHIT for SURE. do not buy!

ha there was jug of sailor jerrys for cheap which was a red flag imo. also the label looks stupid. also that name.

Woody,our wonderful friend and son was laid to rest on December 23rd 2005.

srsly thought this was a person at first. RIP

maybe in his last moments woody fixed his wise sad brown eyes on them and made them promise they would always call him their son and they said alright.

i had another meyers's dark and stormy last night, this is fast becoming a fave drink, i wish more bars had ginger beer

ok i can just keep drinking this ain't no stoppin us now

i liked last night's grand harbor or old english or whatever it was. i mean it was not el dorado 15, but that's not really a fair comparison.

english harbour, that's what it is.

oh yeah and then finished the night with aniversario oh my god that stuff is good

*now sipping

you like?

pretty good, kinda sweeter than i'm used to. the bottle sux! it looks nice but its hard to pour w/out spilling

it does sux! but i am def a fan of the shorty bottles.

i am drinking some of jergins' fancypants el dorado on account of (somehow) feeling like i deserve it because i drove around and around and hither and yon and could not find art primo store and so just came home. so lame.

how do i pour it with 0% spillage? is there a trick or am i stupid

should have got something else with it as this is something i'll probably drink every so often. i was eyeing mt gay, barbancourt, 10 cane and johnny walker

maybe the cloth ribbon is there to catch the spillage and you're supposed to wring it out into your glass

it's a stupid bottle is what.

maybe you're supposed to use the saturated ribbon as a sachet to scent your hankie drawer.

or maybe i should go post on the victorian board, eh?

anyway back to the important topic: you should totally buy mt gay. is tops.

10 cane is super sweet and flowery and it'll make you sugar-high.

barbancourt, okay but not great i guess cause we didn't keep buying it.

i never had johnny walker but jergins likes it.

am0n you try to find pampero aniversario; it is so good.

*should*

(i reminded myself of jamiee stewart just now)

looks good. that cruzan black strap upthread looks good too. liking the pyrat xo, didn't realize patron made it.

Mixed drinks with Tab: According to a reader, Rum and Tab is a 
good twist on the classic Rum and Coke. I have formulated some of my 
own soda-mixtures including Tab. If you are fortunate enough to be 
able to get Moxie and/or Mr. Pibb in your area, here are some good 
combinations to try (these are just what I've tried; experiment with it!):

the lol/important part is According to a reader, Rum and Tab is a good twist on the classic Rum and Coke.

it is precisely because of dumb college drinking of rum and tab that i couldn't drink rum for years and years. probably also had a lot to do with the quality of the rum. and college. and dumb.

cruzan black strap is good. one of the best values you can find. seriously, even though it sounds totally corny.

did you make a necklace out of your pyrat buddha medallion?

also lol Tab Soda Web

tab html fixed XD

i don't know if i can throw away the medallion

i forgot i ordered a shot of some other kind a few weeks ago that was good and i don't remember what it was -_-
