ohh no, i agree man; i meant about brands and prices.

example: it seems a bunch of you are very in love with fake tequila like patron just because it's expensive, while true tequila (because, like champagne, tequila is named and certified by a region where it's produced) like jimador or herradura or sauza might not be as recognized in the states and might be cheaper overall and it's 100% BETTER.

oh yeah, ha ha, silly gringos, paying for marketing-- herradura is king!

i heard from a friend whose family is from jalisco that the maker of cuervo i think or sauze i forget, keeps a bottle of herradura in his office, ha ha ha.

yes well i think up to a certain price point you pay for quality after that you pay for taste & "looks".

ps- this post is in no way meant to be offensive to gringos. its just meant to poke a little fun, you know, in revenge for making us "exotic". but just a little.

while, most of anything it's about ignorance, i mean, marketing. they are paying for status not for the actual drink. that said, price and status alone don't make a product good or bad.

yeah, that bottle is legendary.

ha, nothing, just silliness-- spotted the fact that "paul mitchell" is paul dejoira (De Joira) and thought the name was portuguese-sounding. after a little research it turns out it might actually be catalonian. which it isn't so far off the mark, globally speaking...

and on that subject hows your famous presentation coming along?

I dont think you can actually enjoy alcohol in summer, it makes your blood hot, thus making it even warmer.

good point man, and that's why i posted gin & tonic.

tonic is made from quinine which was used to treat malaria.

tonic actually cools you down a bit.

and that's why it's a REAL summer drink. & tasty.

oh another summer beverage: sangria

 

delicious.

Whiskey whiskey whiskey whiskey.

Yeah! Tonic is pretty awesome and cools you down. I want to try Sangria, I hear its pretty great.

My mom drank this really cool reddish drink in Germany and it was amazing, but I don't remember what it was...

I'm so sick of PBRs. It's the cheap drink of scooter rallies.

I prefer a Newcastle or a Red Stripe.

Mojitos are awesome
Chilled Polish and Russian vodkas are a goto as well.

I'm learning the joys of Gin right now. I'm starting with Seagram's extra dry. Makes a good martini.

haha what subject? silliness? decency?

are you talking about this:





haha sorry for spaming this all over this forum it's just that it has been taking much of my time and it's also the reason why spend more time in the internet...

the title as my slow brain translated it probably sounds silly(it's works well in portuguese, though), the meaning that it should have is that global warming it's also a local problem wich we can help to solve... the work explains what is global warming what causes the gw, what are the solutions what and we can do (localy) to slow down the global warming...

i will make sure to send you a copy, a ver se melhoras o teu português.

oh, that, no, i can read perfectly, but i vaguely remembered having seen it, and i knew there was the world "global" in it-- when i said global i free associated and remembered (vaguely) this thing. if you could send me some pessoa though, or that little old communist man, whats his name... hm.. grrr.. saramago! yeah, that i could use!

[Isoflurane]

I'm not going to read through all of them, but:
Mint Julep
Mojito
