I'm about to grab another rum and coke

anybody need anything while I'm up?

They're in the fridge, but I put a couple in the freezer so they'd be ICE-ICE-BABY cold.

they're bound to go quickly. :)



Here it's ice cold outside. We can toss them in a snowbank out the back door :)

Thank you!

That's the point isn't it?

:D

:toast:

the Andrews Sisters singing "Drinkin' Rum and Coca-Cola."

Really cool tune, with a subversive flavor!

Cheers!

My fave is Barbancourt Anejo from Haiti. Mmmmmmmmmm! The coke part is almost superfluous.

:toast:

it's actually diet dr. pepper and rum, but in the great southern tradition any carbonated dark beverage is a coke, so anything dark and carbonated with rum is a rum and coke ...

still, i'm always happy to tip business to the andrews sisters, though i'm not familiar with that song. I'll have to check it out :)

:toast:

I'm an Alabama boy, myself.

You'll be amazed at some of the commentary in "Rum and Coca-cola." You can almost hear the Cuban Revolution in it.

(I'm not sure where the cashews came from, though ...

Thank you though. :hug:

:hug:

I don't even have a second favorite :)

It's not quite root beer, but this, too, is perty dang tasty (and I'm pretty sure it's honey free):

You should try some Virgil's root beer. Best stuff ever, I swear.

I've had that before. Nice and herb-y. Good stuff :thumbsup:

Rum and coke sounds good. Can't sleep. As usual.

:hi:

but not much ... I'm nightowling as well :)

:hi:

I did a pre-emptive beer run earlier, just in case!

;)

The sooner the better!

:)

though slightly fancier than the crown and corona boilermaker I usually side with :)

He more than earned the Heisman this year!

:hi:

gotta agree about reggie bush. dayum!

At least we have bowl season to look forward to. You're a Sooner fan, right? I can't remember where they are going....

OU winds up playing Oregon, who's ranked #11, iirc. So if we happen to win, it will certainly validate a strong finish ...

I know I knew at one point where auburn was headed, but i don't remember now ...

I liked it better as the Citrus Bowl, have made two or three trips down there to see Auburn play in the past couple of decades. It's a fun bowl game in a fun place, no complaints here.

Except they are playing Wisconsin. How are KitchenWitch and I going to enjoy watching the game together when our teams are playing each other?

:yoiks:

I mean, I know it's because you lost to lsu, but I can't help but think you'd've given georgia a better game than they did ... i think auburn is the best team in the sec this year ...

as for wisconsin ... i was born there, so i've a certain affinity, but i don't think they've got a chance :D (hopefully KitchenWitch won't take it personally ;))

:loveya:

I'm glad some people recognize that. But you know how I thought we were screwed last year - and rectifying it would have bumped your team out of the national championship game, so I'm glad that's not the debate this year. I have too many Oklahoma fan friends here!

:hug:

That Auburn-LSU game was awful to watch. Poor kicker went 0-5 that night. I've watched with some interest several teams experience problems with their place-kicking at Death Valley in Baton Rouge. Don't know what it is, but we were sure jinxed that night.

I would have LOVED to see an Auburn-Georgia rematch in the SEC Championship game. Their regular season game (which we all watched together here!) was the best game I saw all season!

I do think Auburn will beat Wisconsin, but take nothing for granted!

:D

i remember commenting on it with you, though I'd been watching with a georgia fan :)

(i didn't see the auburn-lsu game, but as a sooner fan i'm bound to think that any les miles win is a fluke :))

ah, college football ... only ten days until the first bowl game :)

And I went to Georgia, so I am a huge Bulldogs fan, too. But I grew up in Auburn, so 18 years of indoctrination (LOL) outweigh four in the long run!

:D

but I can understand :)

Did you have to go underground during your years at georgia?

I worked all four years at the athletic department there?

:hide:

:D

haven't had one of those in a while ...

I recommend mixing them right in the bottle ...
