LOL! Calvados = Apple Brandy. Thanks to Wikipedia!

I must profess I haven't tried that. Peach and Cherry brandies. Brandy is dandy but not much of a fan. Liqueur? Have Ginger, Triple Sec (of course), mint and a nice Guaaberry from Sint Maarten. I got booze coming out my ears - still have some from my many Vegas treks. The only standard for me as far as mixed drinks go is Long Island Ice Teas (with Tequila!). Drink 'em like pop. Blue Lagoons would be a close second. A standard drink with Pizza is Coke, Lemon cubes, Tequila and ice. Tequila - of all the hard liquors - that one is the one I will go through a few bottles a year. (Ahem Kastel!) Rum and Coke is so... old sk00l! Still have an unopened bottle of "Cordon Rouge" Grand Marnier that one of my bosses bot me at Christmas a number of years ago. Mostly now merely a glass of red wine at dinner kind of guy. Never been much into beer - favs are Heineken, Labatts Blue, and Sapporo (in the can that could double as a bullet proof vest).

(so you all know what I am into when I visit.. nykk nykk nykk..)

As for my NEW YEARS drink.. a 200mL bottle of MARTINI & ROSSI ASTI. Wonderful flavor - not too strong. Now that I could drink like pop too. Use to drink HENKELL TROCKEN but didn't enjoy it much (too dry I think).

A pro? Or more like a Jim Rogers? (his site is pretty interesting - http://www.jimrogers.com/ talks about his Millennium trip et al.

I started my New Years early - playing Laser Quest (you put on a backpack and shoot people and get points etc Doom, Quake, Halo, Far Cry, FEAR - but for people) with my son last night. The first game was far better - by the time I was half way in the middle of the second I wanted out - no gas (wasn't prepared to even play one game let alone two).

Well as I said, I heard differently - definitely October. Source I cannot remember. They could be wrong.

Cheers!
