I always thought sports cards were for putting in the spokes of bicycle tires.

Achmed: Was wollte denn hren . . . Klopf-Klopf-Witzen?

Dunham: Das wr' besser.

Achmed: Okay, klopf-klopf!

Dunham: Wer ist da?

Achmed: Ich! Ich bring' dich um!

Wade - What do you consider good liquor?

I enjoy martinis. Bombay sapphire gin with maybe a spray of vermouth, maybe not. Two olives. Stirred, not shaken.

I like Johnny Walker Black over ice. I let the ice melt a little bit so it's nice and cool and slightly watered down, then enjoy.

I like Frangelico or Kahlua for sipping after a big meal. Sometimes I'll drink them straight. Sometimes over ice. I used to drink them with milk but not any more. My stomach no longer likes that.

I never do shots. What's the point? I don't drink to get drunk, but drink to enjoy my drink. Plus, drinking is social. It loosens up our worldly inhibitions a little and allows people to talk freely. Society has put too many verbal rules on people and liquor loosens the tongue a bit.

Beer - Guinness. I'll drink other beers, but that's my first choice.

I'm surprised nobody said model trains yet. When I'm old and own a home outright (meaning we won't move so freaking much), I'm going to dedicate a whole room to model trains.

p.s. I'm a martini Nazi. Nothing pisses me off more than some yuppie couple ordering a vodka in a martini glass then telling me they drink martinis. One of these days, I'm going to grab the martini glass from them, pour it over their heads, and tell the bartender to make them a real martini.

Johnny Walker Black. That's like 40%, isn't it? Lol.

I had Whisky once. I very much doubt that it was Johnny Walker. Can't imagine that they'd serve that at the local bar. It was a tad bit on the strong side for me, though.

Yes. It's 80 proof which is 40%. Thus is why I enjoy it more when it's watered down. I still have some taste buds.

Good liquor....gee, this could be a dissertation.
I love a "whisper 'vermouth' quietly over the glass" Sapphire Martini. With 2-3 olives.

I do occasionally like a "half and half" (1/2 sapphire, 1/2 vodka, with a twist of lemon), but I don't call it a martini. Martini = gin. Period.

(But the vodka martini people don't bother me as the people who drink chocalate martinis or multicolored martinis.)

Outside of martinis, I like Plymouth Gin probably the best as gin. (But that's primarily because I went through a Travis McGee period.)

I like a good spicy bloody mary, but since I use tequila instead of vodka, it's probably got another name. (I do like the occasional tequila shooter, usually on a day that sucks and I need a quick kick in the face when I first sit at the bar.)

But mostly, when I said "good liquor" I was thinking whisky, whiskey, and brandy.

Whisky (no "e," a/k/a "scotch"): I like the lighter types. Dalwhinnie is the one most often seen here in the states. Mostly, though, I tend to buy different ones that have a "Signature": Essentially, as I understand it, lots of the smaller Scots distilleries got together in marketing their stuff. They all have the same clear bottle and labelling, usually in a yellow can labelled "signature classics" or "signature whiskys" or something like that....but each one is different. My favorite so far probably is a Mortlach.

Probably because I weaned myself on the stuff drinking it neat, when technically it is supposed to be drunk with a splash of water. I rarely water mine at all, unless its a darker whiskey.

I don't drink much blended scotch ....just because I like the singles better. Johnny Walker Black IMO among the best of my experience, though. Best I've ever had was Usquebach. (which is simply gaelic for "whisky", so if the bar you see it at lists it as a whisky, which the one where I had it did, you're drinking whisky whisky....:) )


Whiskey (bourbon, rye, other North Americans): I probably drink Jack Daniels more than anything nowadays, but I really like Templeton Rye, even if it is made here in Iowa. (It supposedly was Capone's drink of choice, but I don't know if I buy that; but I do like it.)

Brandy: No, not that rotgut that passes for brandy in Wisconsin. The snobby European kind. Cognac, Armagnac. Found a really good Portuguese brandy when I was over there.

Technically these aren't liquors, but...

Beer: I drink this a lot less than I used to. (Heck I drink a lot less of everything than I used to. Last time I bought Signature whisky in Britain was 2006. Two bottles. And one is still unopened). I like the original Leinies. I have yet to find a wheat beer I like. I like just about any Belgian or Scots ale, Fullers ESB. (I always order "yer best bitter" when in the UK). Guiness is too heavy for me, though I've had a couple Aussie stouts that I liked.

Wine: I drink it when I eat at fancy restaurants or when I'm entertaining a dinner party. Thats about it. I have no clue what's good, and what's not. I do like port, but that's an even rarer pleasure than some of the whiskys.

I just reread this. I realize that almost everything I list here is best as a "sipping drink," leisurely after a fine meal. In the old days, with a pipe or a cigar, in a leather armchair.

With an elegantly dressed lady in basic black and stiletto heels in the other armchair.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
