Poll question: What alcoholic beverage should I buy for tomorrow?
I'm out of everything alcoholic. And I'm gonna need SOMETHING to get through Coronation Day :puke: even if I declare a total news embargo. (Which I am considering, but I will probably not be able to resist the news.)

Soooooo.... All below are favorites, so it's all good.

22. ahhh...Gran Reserve
I grew up in whisky country. On a still day the smell permeated the air...snifffff.

As a child, I used to piss in the burn (that's stream to you guys) that one of the major labels draws its water from. Anything bottled between 1966 and 1974 should, therefore, be avoided. I'm not naming it though in case it affects our export industry...heehe.

6. LOL. No, there is not.
When I leave Texas, I don't know what beer to order. I stand at the bar, befuddled, and have to ask for recommendations.

But I always like trying new things. And I looooove Guinness.

29. Actually, Chateau Ste Michelle (Washington) makes a reisling
that is not sweet at all - just fruity. I don't like the sweet ones, either.

(I guess I could have made the same fascist joke with Italian wines like Pinot Grigio or a nice Chiaaaaanti.) :)

31. Ah! Italian facism. I like that wine choice much better.
Maybe I will get a nice Chianti to celebrate. No kidneys though.

13. I know I won't be able to resist the news either.
I have four unopened bottles of wine leftover from Christmas. One of those'll do for me.

Can you get Leinenkugel's where you are? Leinie's Creamy Dark is good.

But the Central Market beer section has pretty much everything, so I'll have to look.

33. Ew. Sorry, but that's not serious drinkin' alcohol.
I have no idea how anyone can have more than one of any kind of malt beverage or wine cooler. One, I can see, but why would you continue with them, and if you didn't continue, what on earth would you switch to afterwards?

23. Drugs.
And lots of them. I went to my Republican doctor and told him that since his guy got "elected" I needed enough xanax to get me through the next four years. He gave me enough for 30 days. Damn Republican.

I'm liking the idea of supporting the French. Just, you know, to piss off the freepers.
