Are you a music critic, Shane's Deid? If so, I'd like to know how you got into that line of work. Anyways, Hendrick's is my favorite, so cheers to that!
"If we take habitual drunkards as a class, their heads and their hearts will bear an advantageous comparison with those of any other class. There seems ever to have been a proneness in the brilliant and warm-blooded to fall in to this vice." - Abraham Lincoln in an address to the Washington Temperance Society in 1842

Sort of, hah! In between other, less-interesting jobs, I report for http://www.Bluesbunny.com. It started when I was studying Journalism at college, and, by chance, met the Editor of the website at a concert. Drunk. Been doing it for just over three years now. I guess i'm lucky in the sense that I live in a reasonably small city with dozens of venues all easily reached, otherwise i'd probably never have had the opportunity.

Doesn't exactly pay, but it's experience nonetheless. Good excuse for a drink, too!

I'm fairly new to Hendrick's, but it has made an impression on me!

EDIT: Still drinking Miller. As soon as my clothes are dry, i'll be off in search of Tennent's.

Made myself a nice little cocktail:

a few dashes of angostura bitters
lots of ice
a dash of drambuie
some scotch
some armagnac
a dash of mead

tasty, but what am I to name it?

Finally, Odinson is back.
How are you doing, ally from the northern kingdoms? Hope all is well and I will try to find some mead in your honor for the winter solstice.

Just finished my exams, and that means more drinking. Winter is the best season for that here, by far. With the seasonal beer and indoor guzzling in front of the fire. Otherwise just freezing my ass off. And there?

Listening to Gainsbourg and drinking vermouth(Out of gin, sadly)

I'm starting with some Troegs Mad Elf Ale, and plan on working through two different Smoked Porters one from Stone and I disremember where the other is from. I'll report back when I crack it. Then I'll fisinsh with some Redstone Mead.

The last of the gin. We have to have the bar cleared out in 18 days... vodka, tequila, Cointreau, DiSarano, Kahlua, red wines, white wines and several "other" things I will pawn off on friends... to GO! Funny enough, no one wanted to take booze home from our going-away-party. Dummies.
