What are you drinking right now?

An ice cold Bud Lite - yes I know its like sex in a canoe, but I often feel like a nice lite lager these days, not too heavy, and hell, its cold and its beer!
echos myron like a siren
with endurance like the liberty bell
and he tells you of the dreamers
but he's cracked up like the road
and he'd like to lift us up, but we're a very heavy load

Sex in a canoe sounds a hell of a lot more appealing!

I was going to ask whether you were a beer snob or merely a sex fiend and then I realized the answer was undoubtedly 'both'.

I've never had Bud Lite and I never will (I'm not sure I've ever had Bud, though I did, needless to say, have a bottle of delicious Budvar with my lunch today). I've never had sex in a canoe, but I hope to some day! White water rafting never sounded so appealing. Oarsome!

Gosh, the world feels safer to me now!

Southpaw. Cheaper than Bud. In every possible sense. But, hell, after 3 or 4, does it matter?

Does it do something to your grammar? Great name for a beer.

I enjoyed a nice bottle of well cold Asahi as I watched the world's no. 1 football club do the business this afternoon. Most satisfying.

No, the grammar just comes natural. It does do something to my manners.

I wouldn't exactly call a 1-1 draw with Getafe "doing the business," but Barca can't be expected to win them all.

BTW, your grammars ain't nothin' but impugnable. I was trying to figure out what had been wrong with your grammar, and then realized Westinghouse was making an oblique Morrissey reference. :roll: 8)

Here's one for you. . .

. . . my newest favorite concoction. . .vodka, green tea (slightly sweetened) over lotsa ice.

Makes these traveling-on-business-night-blues slightly more bearable.

Sauvingnon Blanc, of the cheaper variety tonight, as we chase kids around the house and get used to getting back to the school routine from the holidays. I hate drinking the good stuff when the buzz just gets wasted on homework. :lol:

A nice cheap glass of California Syrah. Hanging out in the kitchen and making crepes for dinner.

Diet Coke. I needed something strong to settle my nerves after the riveting final episode of the Soprano's.

2 parts Trader Joe's Brewed Black Tea (Unsweetened) : 1 part Nantucket Nectars 100% Juice Pomegranate-Cherry

Over ice, natch. This is my new drink: anti-oxidants, caffeine, and yumminess.

Ice cold coca-cola
This morning you've got time for a hot, home-cooked breakfast! Delicious and piping hot in only 3 microwave minutes.

Diet Pepsi - getting ready to take the kids out to dinner tonight. My son graduated from pre-school today. The mini graduation ceremony was a hoot, with no f-bombs. He even said "thank you" when he got his "diploma".

Green tea with ginseng. Clipper, of course, who can do no wrong, apart from their slightly below par Earl Grey. Their free trade organicblack tea is about the best blended teabg taste I've ever had. So good I drink it at work in preference to the Twinings provided free. their flavoured white teas (especially blackcurrant) are superb, and their nettle is very good. And gorgeous packaging.

Oh my God! There's various flavours I ain't seen in the shops! White + ging, white plus peppermint, vanilla, etc. The cinammon one was heaven. I feel an order coming on.

And they make me think of VU's Heroin sailing on a great big clipper ship.

Tea is made of one constituent and that's tea.
You can't beat a nice Assam.


But tonight I am drinking a nice Aussie Red (like most nights).
Tonight's happens to be an 05 Cabernet Merlot.
Can't you see I'm trying to change this water to wine
