Lookin Good, happy birthday

Have Fun!!! My personal fav is a Ketel One Gibson, straight up with extra onions.  Mmmmm!  So smooth!  But for mixers I usually get a Long Beach Iced Tea (cranberry juice instead of coke) or a Salty Dog (grapefruit+vodka+salted rim).  Always nice, especially with ruby red juice.  A good rule of thumb to remember when drinking cocktails, especially in larger amounts, is to use juice instead of carbonated mixers.  The carbonation opens up the Pyloric valve in your stomach and the alcohol gets into your system faster, thus you get drunk faster than you might have wanted to.  Just a little bartender knowledge I picked up while I was one in college.  Enjoy Myrtle Beach, Cheers! 

Well Ang, guess it should be illegal if you burn the bar down.  Oh well you could go out happy.  What a kick, how do they make the flames?
Hey forget your troubles and have a great vacation rocky.

Laurel that is so moving.

I can't begin to say what mixed feelings I have for this whole turn of events.  On one part I am ashamed of our government for being so slow to get aid in there.  I am ashamed especially of the local government calling for a mandatory evacuation and then not providing at least school buses to get those out that cannot help themselves. 

I just got back from San Antonio and learned a lot just talking to some locals to see how they felt.  They have a huge number of displaced people there and already a lot of them say they want to stay in San Antonio.  A cab driver told us that they came up to him and said they were from New Orleans and could they have a free ride.  They also wanted all their food in town for free. 

A disaster of this magnitude brings out the best and the worst in humans.  It is hard not to feel badly for the people stuck in the awful heat with nowhere to go for days.  Then there are snipers and people stealing rescue boats - what a shame on Americans.  Maybe there is a little hope after all through all of the other countries that want to help the "big, fat americans".  It shows that regardless of our race, religion or nationality,  we are all humans on this earth and we do what we can to help our brothers.

It will take years to sort this all out, if ever.

Well, think of me and try my favorite a Kaluha and cream on the rocks.  Goes down real nice.
