Yuengling is good stuff!

I couldn't get drunk on beer if my life depended on it. I just drink it like with meals and stuff. If I actually want to drink, it has to be hard liquor. But I go through phases of what I like. In the winter it's mostly bourbon, brandy, and schnapps, and in the summer tequila and rum.

Have you guys had Limoncello? I love lemon flavored stuff, and I really want to try it, but it seems more like a summer drink. Plus it's expensive.

My aunt brought my grandma a bottle of lemon liqueur from Rome a few years ago called Limonce, and it was really good. It was too sweet though... we had to add straight lemon juice to it. It was worth it to see my almost-90 year old grandma get drunk.

I'm packing my suitcase, I'm going to the beach!! Finally
When it comes to beer I like Stella Artois, Corona and most of the local brands.
It was mentioned a few pages ago but Im also a mahjong lover. Is the only game I managed to download in the computers room when I was in high school. I became an expert
Bye everyone!!

Speaking of lemon, what I really like is caipirinha. I could drink it all night, but it is dangerous. It's just too strong and it doesn't feel like it.

We also have here strawberry caipirinha, passion fruit caipirinha and some others. It really is something. Too bad I don't how to make caipirinha.

Enjoy, Mardou!

Are coming to Brazil, btw?

No, but it sounds delicious!

I had to google it, but now I really want one.

I have still never found the "perfect drink." There are things I really like, but like with Disaronno, it's just not strong enough to count IMO. My dream liquor would be lemon flavored, tart but also sweet, and like 70 or 80 proof at least.

Lemon/citrus flavored vodka is a joke. It tastes NOTHING like lemon.

I need to try it!

OMG, caipirinha is great. You should try it ASAP. But make sure someone from Brazil (not me tho) is making it. The ones I had abroad are nothing like the real Brazillian caipirinha.

I wish I was!! But there's a reality stronger that my wishes and that reality is 1Real= 2,50 Pesos

This is a stressful football game. The Bengals are killing me. I got out of work early to watch the second half and I'm now scfreaming at the tv instead of the computer which is what I was doing at work.

I've tried so many different liquors that I've lost track. I've went to some wine and liquor shows and had a salesman take me to everything imaginable to try. So much fun!

Yes it is!!!
I cant find cachaça here! So I guess I'll have to Brasil to have a real one again

Sorry Denver but I'm glad for the loss. My Cincy just made the playoff the ugly way.

Raiders lost too, Broncos are still in the playoffs the ugly way too.

I'm super confused about the Bengals getting in, I was under the impression they had to win or Tennessee would get in with a win/Bengals loss. E: Apparently by having both the Broncos and Jets lose, the Bengals record vs. common opponents was better.

The Bengals had to win or have a Jets loss and either a Denver loss or a Raider loss. The fates were smiling on the Bengals today. Now if they could win a playoff game a miracle would occur. Seriously, it's been 20 years since the won one.

What to watch tonight? Here are the options: Jesus Christ Superstar, Popeye (the musical), Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows part 1, any of the Lord of the Rings, Scott Pilgram vs the world, Across The Universe, Carnival season 2, Firefly, Once and Again season 2, 500 Days of Summer or Thundercats. Thoughts?

I'd vote for Scott Pilgrim, because I've never seen it and I want to.

Or Once and Again. I would like to rewatch it, btw. Never watched that again after it was cancelled. I got curious after our conversation about Evan Rachel Wood.

Or 500 days of Summer because of Zooey and Joseph Gordon-Levitt.

I've never Seen Scott Pilgram either. I bought it because I was curious and I haven't opened it yet.

scott pilgram won and it was a lot of fun. I have too many movies that I haven't actually watched. I buy them and the just look at them. Instead of watching something different I just watch the Revival of Company over and over. I'm such a nerd.

I do the same thing, but with books. But actually I do have a couple of DVDs I bought months ago and haven't watched yet. I bought the Starz show Party Down is one of them. It looks good (Jane Lynch, Lizzy Caplan, and few people from Veronica Mars are in it) and it was so cheap.

I haven't seen Scott Pilgrim yet. Not a big fan of Michael Cera, though I did like him in Arrested Development. But him being the same in every role thereafter makes me question his abilities as an actor. And I like Kat Dennings, but Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist was total shit.

Just got back home. My week with my family was amazing. I feel motivated again, that's good. It was exactly what I needed.

Important really glad you had a good holiday

I'm happy that the trip was good! It's nice to see family in get recharged.

I think I need a vacation. The last few days I've had so many work dreams. I've been dreaming about labor costs, inventory, sales and the actual building. It's getting annoying. Add that to last nights dream of horror christmas and I think my brain needs a break.

This time next week I'll be back in school. I'm excited, so freaking bored and penniless until then.
