Never tasted a vegie I did not like! Or animal!

Yeah, well you're just the weird exception.

Nice sexism going for you there. Men can be lightweights too.

We have a drink over here called Lambrini, it's a wine I think.  It's a really cheap joke of a wine really, they have a catchy advert slogan "Lambrini girls just want to have fun."

My friends came up with a genius mix with an incredible name, Lambrini and Jack Daniels, the name is Jack & Lamb.

It would probably make inexperienced drinkers puke, I think I handled it if I remember correctly.

It's good with Vodka and Lemon juice

Oh my god; that sounds absolutely putrid. 


And then you put vodka in it! 😉

Yeah... I guess that would be me... most of the time if I go out I'm happy with just a couple of alcoholic drinks, just to get me pleasantly merry, followed by coke or whatever for the rest of the night. That's not to say I can't handle more, and don't get completely hammered from time to time, but I prefer just aiming for merry. But with drinking, like with most other things, I tend to be pretty naive... so if I'm trying something new... 'here, try this Jager Bomb... you'll like it' and I did and before you know it I'm completely pissed out of my head and my antics are recorded for posterity on Facebook by my friends Another great one for that is Absinth... tastes lovely even neat... like liquorice or aniseed... but very potent.

If it has tequila, run!

I sent a sample of Bud Light to the CDC to have it analyzed. The report came back and said, "My horse, Bud, had diabetes"!

You are a mixologist! I invented the "Tennessee Redneck" which is one part Tennessee Bourbon and 4 parts ginger ale with a splash of grenadine. It is beautiful in a fluted glass. My brother invented the "Rosy Palm" on the island of Diego Garcia--we're not going there!
