Rain is indeed peace inducing. In a tears in the rain sort of way.

I had always thought that what I was drinking could not be termed a "boilermaker" because I thought a boilermaker was a shot glass of whiskey dropped into a glass of beer. However, the Wine Enthusiast has this to say about the matter: "What most modern bartenders generally don’t suggest, however, is dropping a shot of whiskey into a beer and chugging it.

“I’m a grown-up and I serve grown-ups,” says Michael Neff, bar director at Bar Loretta in San Antonio, Texas. “I wouldn’t serve it that way even if someone asked.”

Your goal, instead, should be to enjoy and savor the pairing, he says."

So, indeed, I'll be drinking boilermakers tonight.

With all due respect, Mr. McSpiffy sounds like the kind of guy who’s never had a speck of dirt under his nails or a trace of callous on his dainty paws.

Cheers, Hugh.

Tall cans. Not very creative but still fun. Cheers.

Cold beer and Evan Williams, but in different glasses. So, that's a "grown-up" boilermaker? Who cares, it tastes good. Cheers.

The vessel and the contents itself need only be mediocre relative to the quality of character.

Chilled white wine. Wine always lets me drink for longer without losing my focus, so I think it'll become my staple drink for weekdays. Cheers.

^^ Keep guzzling those beers, Friday shall be there before you know it.
Since, technically, it's already Friday here (almost 2am), I've gone Greek, letting the ouzo river lead me to wherever it wants. Cheers.

Had some ouzo earlier, finishing off the remaining bottle from last night so I have space for tomorrow's much-needed stocking up, and now I'm having white wine. One bottle's down, another opened, and a third sits in the fridge. I'm not an optimist by nature, quite the opposite actually, but there are times life feels good, and it's usually when the booze river flows wild. Cheers, and drink up.
