I'm at work, I have the stupid cold/virus/SARS thing and I didn't get enough sleep. There's still 2.5 days of fail until the weekend :thumbsdown:

I'm a college student, so if I have the spare $$ I'll get some Johnnie Walker black label... good enough for me. Scotch > Bourbon.

That said if it's cheap enough I might get some 8 yo Jim Beam black label. Decent enough I guess...

Or stick to my $4/bottle sake...

Not working today, but it snowed just enough so I'll have to shovel & the kids have 90-minute school-delays ... I'm drinking coffee.

Hmm, I should have clarified that the scotch is for the weekend, to be enjoyed in small quantities :)

Right now I'm drinking coffee.

Hows making limoncello? I had some when I was in Sorrento and it was fabulous!

Home made? I have a friend who makes Lemocello, Orangecello and cream versions of both and they are outstanding and deadly (100+ proof)

I'm on the US East Coast, so this would be last night, but I also had the latest edition of the Economist and a Glenlivet 12.

The Economist is really covering the US political race pretty hard for a non-American publication. I was really hoping for something else this week since every other news outlet is covering the primaries.

I'll respond to this as if it was last night... rum and vodka mixed with kool aid. Right now it's Dr. Thunder pop.

Since I've got a lemon tree with tons of unused lemons I had Fullmetal Chocobo send me his recipe. Resulted in tasty stuff that packs a big punch.

If I ever have the patience to zest a jillion little limes from my lime tree, I'll try some limecello.

Yep. I do vodka & everclear batches, but I prefer the vodka ones. I use Skyy exclusively now, after trying about 10 different vodkas, which is funny because I won't drink Skyy normally, but it produces the best limoncello. I've made lemon, lime, orange, and soon a margarita (lime & orange mix just for shits and giggles). And I'm looking to start bottling next month (not selling, just saving, in case anyone from TeAm Anandtech or AT drops by).
