Hopefully you and Hillary will never get to be king and queen! When I become King of America, it will be illegal to mix gin with Mountain Dew. Six months on the chain gang.

For those who don't like to piss your money away on Tanguerey, try New Amsterdam gin - I think you'll be surprised.

Hendricks. Maybe a little dry vermouth and an olive.

Went to a wedding one time where, for some reason, I was afraid the free beer wouldn't be enough. So I brought along a bottle of Beefeater. Ended up doing shots of it with my brother using the cap as a shot glass. We were so trashed we went to a downtown bar after the wedding and got in a fist fight with each other. My oldest brother (who wasn't drinking as much) had to drag us out of the bar before we got arrested.

My oldest brother (who wasn't drinking as much) had to drag us out of the bar before we got arrested. Years ago, my brother and a friend and I limited out on trout pretty early in the morning and stopped about halfway home (still 50 miles out) at a beer joint for burgers and beer. We started shooting pool and drinking sand blasters, I drink I’d invented that spring consisting of a shot of gin in a glass of draught beer. Pretty soon everyone in the place was drinking them. It got pretty sporty. A guy recognized me from Olongapo a few years earlier. When we let my brother out at his house he couldn’t stand up. His wife came running out and asked what was wrong with him. They hadn’t been married long and there were still things she didn’t understand. He mumbled that he had an awful headache. She gave him the poor baby treatment...

I like the occasional gin and tonic, but they give me heartburn so I can't drink a bunch of them. I like a gin martini as well, but the same rules apply, lol.

![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/94xl2wFl.jpg) This is known by the blacks in Georgia as "Knotty Head" because of all the bumps on the bottle. I was a paramedic down there and I had to work on quite a few inebriated Negros. Countless, really. We would walk in the apartment, a guy is laying on the floor, we asked the lady what the problem was. "Oh, he be into the Knotty Head tonight." Translation, "The gentleman is drunk on Seagrams gin." I got fluent in Ebonics in that job. Normally I don't like cheap booze but I love the Seagrams. That story cracked me up!!!! Thanks!! Here in the SC Lowcountry, we indigenous types call Segrams "Bump Gin". Rather than Tonic, I have drinking it with Bitter Lemon. Fever Tree used to be my brand, but I cant find it local any more. Switched over to Polar. Almost as good and a lot less expensive.

Last year our local liquor store had a “garage sale” of sorts to raise money for charity.
The Fever Tree salesman donated a case of 4-packs of Fever Tree. It normally sells for $8 a 4-pack here. I bought the whole case at $2 a 4-pack.
