I don't like whiskey that well. I'm pretty sure that if that's all there was to drink, I would be very abstemious. Unfortunately, there is stuff like rum, vodka and tequila that tastes wonderful when mixed up with various juices. I like martinis too, but have pretty much sworn off of them.
I had martinis once in my life. They made me physically sick. Not drunk or anything, just couldn't hold them down for some reason. I had two. Never again!
But rum...Mmmm Mmm! I loved a good rum and coke! As a matter of fact, it was a rum and coke I was drinking when I decided drinking without Steve wasn't very fun. At Chuy's Restaurant in Austin Texas...where the Bush girl got in trouble, you know?
I just left that rum and coke sitting there half gone...and didn't have another drink till the Wild Turkey at Hair's house.
