Being a broke ass sucks! I love the good stuff! I had a Taqueray Ten and tonic the other night that was perfect since it was like 200 degrees outside, but I'm not sure that anything can replace a great red wine when I just want to relax. The drug store near my work was having a special on a lite beer that when I'm broke I'll settle for tonight, but given my choice I probably would've opened the 2001 Rhone in my wine rack.
I love single malt scotch almost as much as my wife. If the mouth of a bottle of Glenlivet was a little wider....... well I'd better not tell that story. j/k
SGresso will be glad to hear that news about Absenth. I've been tempted to order Absinthe. I've been tempted to try some a couple of times, but just haven't taken the time to order any...
