Friday Night Tequila Buzz. Ask me anything.

Two shots to get the party started. Now, a Chapala. Tequila, Cointreau, orange juice, lemon juice, and a dash of grenadine. Yummy!

Hope everyone is looking forward to a relaxing weekend.

I love you all…

I've had a bottle of now extinct Anchor Steam beer rolling around in the trunk of my car for probably eight years now. When I buy a new car, I just transfer it over. It's a collector's item now.

It has nearly got me thrown in jail, come close to drowning me, and got me ejected from a "family style" restaurant in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

No más, por favor.

We decided to drink our dinner, but after the bottles were empty, we saw this place open and decided we needed food.

We were not the type of customers this restaurant was targeting....loud, profane, loutish, and very drunk.

There may have been fried shrimp used as projectiles.
