So who needs a mojito (or any other drink of choice) ???

[Rugby]

I use to tend bar .... so I mix. Does that count?

I use to attend bars so I could mix....with friends, so I don't think that would count. 

[SwingWaltz]

Yep! It's here!!!

~~~THE BOOZE THREAD~~~

Feel free...drunk posts, drinking/drunken stories, good/bad alcohol etc etc.

[SwingWaltz]

Give me some more of those fine whiskey....when I get home from the lab today (should be 10pm)!

[QPO]

Booze is like a wardrobe for me.

With food: Bloody Mary, preferably with awesome olives.
Before dancing at DanceWorld: Three PFX's from PF Chang's so whether or not I'm actually p0wning cha-cha, I feel like it. (Sorry 'bout that elbow, Paige- honest)
To keep it together at comps/bigger parties, etc.: Absolut or VanGuzzle
After-party: Woodford Reserve.
Red wine makes me... blushy, fruity, and loveydovey.

Red Bull and Vodka makes some other dude's rhinestones wind up in my undies after winding up in a dancewich to K7's Come Baby Come and trekking most of downtown Nashvegas in a rainstorm at 2 am. Good times.

I totally saved those rhinestones and will glue them lovingly onto a bracelet, spelling out his name.

A lush for all seasons!

What if I feel offended by such a topic?
What if I think this might have a bad influence on visitors (young) to this site?
What if I feel that this world is going down the pipes by promoting such an attitude?

get my drift ee?

Nothing like a good mojito.  Make sure the bartender crushes the mint leaves, not just tosses them into the glass.  There's actually a mint leave crusher thing good bartenders use - you can find them online.

I'll refrain from writing about my Rocket Fuel Punch adventures during my fraternity days.  A party was not considered a success unless there were at least two people passed out in various places around the house by midnight...

[Beachbum]

agreed with the crushing of the mint leaves.

and you might have had rocket fuel punch .... here we called it jungle juice with the same effect. 

Yah.  The second worst hangover of my life was courtesy of some Rocket Fuel.  The worst was when a work buddy (a good Scotsman) and I hit some reggae bars in the city and started with Red Stripes which somehow morphed into tequila shots.  Mercy!  That was a baaaaaad one.  At least the bartender (female) kissed me goodnight...

Technically, the handle "Vagabond" actually encourages sloth, which is one of the seven deadly sins, if you subscribe to a Judeo-Christian theology. Even if you don't, sloth is an unfavorable trait and a detrimental work ethic not conducive to a positive dance environment. That handle... might be offensive.

I was bored. *shrug*

Respectfully, Ginger, it is 3 out of the 7 definitions that might be said to encourage "sloth".  I always think of definations 1& 2 when I think of 'vagabond'.

No, THAT question on the SAT was a train-wreck!
