I ordered a Manhattan once and didn't like it and gave it to my sister to finish.

If that's what you've been drinking, I can see why you don't like it. Terrible climate. Literally impossible to produce a quality grape. You might as well be drinking grape juice. It should be illegal to make wine at that latitude.
"Spirit of the West" is a Canadian band. Celtic-infused rock. I've danced to this song many, many times.
Do you remember cocktail with Tom Cruise? Truly terrible film but it started a whole craze of people ordering Harvey wall bangers and long slow screws and so on
Red wine, cider, and certain hard liquors tend to have a little higher methanol (nowhere near the kills-you-and-your-five-friends-during-Laos-vacation levels) than other alcoholic beverages. It's suspected to be a contributing factor to the nastier hangovers.
I love that movie! Yes, it's terrible, but so bad it's good. Bryan Brown is very quotable.
This all seems like it would fit in the "Posting While Drunk" thread, lol
I need a thread called "Thinking about getting drunk."
Okay, I'm going to change the subject. My niece (the one that lives with me when she's home) is coming home from Seattle this weekend!
Gin and strawberry Jarritos for me... not bad. Store was out of tonics and its 90 degrees out. Whatever is cold!
I've got a vodka and lime Bubly beside me.
A lich, eh? *cracks knuckles, resists the urge to "mwa-ha-ha"* Now we're cooking with undead charcoal!
I've read fantasy for a long time and played role-playing games for years; liches are nasty buggers, high-level undead with many magical powers. Even worse, it uses them to tie its life-energy to a magical receptacle called a phylactery. (Needless to say, only evil mages do this).
A lich retains all of the memories, personality, and abilities that it possessed in life, but it has an eternity to hone its skills and become powerful. Even when killed, its soul retreats to the phylactery to become reanimated. So it can be a powerful and memorable villain.
I'm not sure, but I think the idea of a lich comes from the Old Norse haugbui (pron. "ha-oog-boo-ee") or "barrow-dweller", the great-great-and-a-few-more-greats-grand-daddy of Tolkien's "barrow-wights", which the hobbits encounter in LOTR.
I wanna take this word over to the Wonky Dictionary for some reason
Well, my iPad's internet connection is down despite it telling me it's connected to the internet.
Probably means it’s connected to your hub but your hub isn’t connected to the internet
I got a cheque in the mail from my insurance company for $39.76 and I have no idea why.
That's OK, cash the cheque and use it for whatever you like. (Maybe have a few beers?)
Or, if you're truly curious, call your insurance company and ask them ... after waiting on hold for two hours, of course. 'Cos that always happens. ;P Seriously, though, maybe it's best to call as soon as they open in the morning. The hold time is shorter then.
I'm going to take this opportunity to test out the spoiler function
Did it work?
