because we need another one. with pictures.

how can i know her?

i don’t know wtf is going on here but i like it

post information about how to buy kegs of rum here!

should i buy this shirt:

?

still with the crap no-label whalers!

wtf is sharecroppers? i’ve never seen that one before

and Malibu, I C U HIDING:)

silly. that’s a picture from last summer... sharecroppers is an interloping bottle of wine. and the whalers is long gone by now. as is the one barrel, sadly. that malibu may still be hiding there in the back.

catalog of yr shelf now plz

except that bottle of mt. gay is significantly emptier now.

lol at the light cruzan. was david over again?

what’s the one on the left?

no, i bought it. it’s okay when you want something super light. you never even tried it! you don’t know!

on the left is saint james.

i had completely forgotten about the barbancourt. there’s another almost empty bottle of goslings back there, and that fucking sailor jerry’s. and the poor little wee bottle of malibu still: the neglected little sister of the rum cupboard.

and jim beam? wtf?

you will be amused to know that i had to stand on a chair to take that picture.

this is the rum i am appreciating tonight

in a jar even! be still my heart

this is what’s on for monday: i still haven’t washed the dishes so it’s a jar again tonight for me. good thing i have lots of jars.

i bought a tough bottle of rum last night, can’t even remember the name, left it at the party. but! i got good and drunk until the soda ran out and I introduced this girl Mikaela to the pleasure of rum rickeys and she got sauced. the headache today is worth it.

i don’t know how i missed that link to the havana rum museum till now. according to Lonely Planet Cuba, they also give excellent dancing lessons at the museum. let’s go!

(children get in free. this is amusing me all the livelong.)

it’s payday so i bought 4 bottles of rum and a carton of cigarettes. what a happy happy thing.

and since i know you’re going to ask, i will save you the trouble and just tell you:

mt. gay, goslings, flor de cana 7 year, cockspur, benson & hedges

the latter i will save for your homecoming.

haha, the latter rum, that is. i’m smoking them b&h whether you come home or not, brother.

i’m adding Old Mill to my list. it is custom made on the Spanish Main, so....

much rum was appreciated last night. along with much wine, some beer and a bottle of seagrams. no one drank the lemon hart poison, but the mumbling dum dum malibu is finally gone!

this evening i was surprised to find that there was still a good amount of old mill left in the cupboard. why did this not get drunk at our party? did we put it away?

regardless, i was happy to find it, and was / am / will continue to be happy to consume some of it.

it was even out, and no one went for it

i’m up for appreciating some rum tomorrow

ME TOO!

we got lots of the cockspur left. but not the 12, unfortunately.

thx black strap. nice to meet you again.

i haven’t been appreciating the pyrat much. it’s gone now though

i found this in the cupboard and am trying it now. 151

it gave me a headache like 151 does. i didn’t have much though

time to check out the friday harbor liquor store. will report back

i got the last bottle of cockspur!

there’s mt. gay regular and a couple of cruzans—not the light—and that’s about it. no special shelf.

also: 10 cane. no gosling’s (don’t care)

yum cockspur!

it may be the best one of all.

This month BOKA renames Happy Hour. Five lanes of pain equal five lane sof gain for those who aren’t ready to endure the commute. Enjoy the signature cocktail the Traffic Jam, a delectable combination of Bacardi Rum, fresh muddled raspberries(red for stop), and mint ( green for go); with a citrus sugar rim (yellow...you get the idea) for $5 for the duration of Rush Hour, which, during the month of August will extend to 8pm. Plenty of time for the traffic to ease up.

Rush Hour: Monday—Friday from 3pm—8pm

we should go... bar menu (half price during happy / rush hour) sounds good.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯A month passes⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

me: matsusalem

you: ?

way too much cockspur

and some of that whiskey

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯A month passes⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

thanks for buying that brazilian stuff, jergy, even though i don’t think i can drink it. maybe we can make syrup out of it?

oh yeah, i took that ‘what drink are you’ quiz that someone posted on the rum poll thread. apparently i am

***Sex On the Beach***

When comes to drinking, you like it to go down smooth.

You really don’t like the taste of alcohol—just its effect on you.

So, you’re proud to get drunk on fruity, girly drinks.

Because once you’re liquored up, the fun begins!

hahaha.

so not true you like tough drinks

do u rate

always liked the label and bottle shape but never tried it

lol screech

haven’t tried that appleton, no, but have had another variety (cheaper); it was okay.

what’s up with canadian rum?!

how do you drink your rum, am0n?

with coke (boring)

what about

not boring if it’s what you like though, eh? if i liked coke i’d probably drink rum and coke, too. instead, it’s soda-lime for me.

(tru confession: when i first drank rum i drank it with TAB!!!1 LOLOLOLLLOOOOOLLLL!!! probably why i hated rum for long time??!)

(uhh, that makes me seem v v old, doesn’t it. but i guess i am, so....)

i think we had a different kind of pusser’s before, but not that variety. jergins, do you recall? i think the name is off-putting.

have you had this one?

oh shit that looks good. i like the dark rums

british navy = ghey

when i first drank rum i drank it with TAB!!!

EW

I KNOW!

do you like the goslings black seal?

we had pusser’s once i can’t remember how it tasted; i just laughed about the name

okay, we’re going to try that appleton tonight.

no. i need to buy gosling. is pyrat good?

that pyrat isn’t quite as dark as it looks in the picture, but it’s a pretty good one.

the packaging cannot be denied, though. i’m a sucker for the swank.

i wasn’t too taken with the appleton last night. it was fine but not great. come to think of it, the cockspur didn’t really do anything for me either. what is going on?

jesus, am i going to have to start drinking bourbon full time??? makes me feel weird just to say it.
