Which reminds me: How is the water situation in Britain today? The news shifted their evil gaze on burning forrests in Spain, Greece and Croatia, so there's not much about the north right now.
I'm not really a drinker though. About four years ago I discovered that all the drinks I mixed myself tasted better as non-alcoholic, concluded that I just don't plain like alcohol, and stopped drinking. :P

You have to power through it until you acquire the taste. It sucks, I know.

It's all back to normal now, and the past few days have been actually quite sunny (but not very warm - brrr!). It's just a case of picking up the pieces; insurance companies are having a field day :P
Burning forests are far worse, in my mind Those poor people!

A lot of the more enjoyable things in life are this way.
Alcohol, cigarettes, coffee, stinky cheese, caviar, Tom Waits.
If you make a mojito with Bacardi you should be dragged into the street and beaten.
Do you really feel there's a big difference between light rums?
Has the whole world gone mad?
It's the principle of the thing, Will.
Have you no soul?
Man fuck Gen Y and their status-advertising driven consumerism. Bacardi with it's multi-million dollar advertising budget is somehow insufficiently upscale to really enjoy a drink originally drank by dirt-poor Latin American peasants?
I missed a discussion (no matter how brief) on mojitos? Crap. This day is starting out wrong.
Mojitos are a gift to man and woman alike. They make you smarter, faster, stronger, and more sexually potent. Mojitos have been shown to cure most forms of cancer, reverse the effects of alzheimers and, if you dip your stuff in it, sooth the burning from common STDs.

You're Podlys, the lot of you.
Ouch
that hurt deep
I hate their commercials, I can buy and love their products while hating the people they've paid to make their advertising compaign.

The fact that it was a drink originally enjoyed by dirt-poor Latin American peasants is exactly the reason why you should not make it with macro-distilled, over-advertised, "me too!" crap. The mojito has been around forever and I'm supposed to drink it made with Bacardi because thier advertising campaign is convincing millions of twenty-something Americans who lack appreciation for the drink that this concoction is a new fad? No sir.

No sir.
Interesting side note:
Last year I went to a play that featured the mojito as a plot device of sorts. It was called "By the Waters of Babylon", and I can attribute my mojito love-affair to this play.
I was in the doctor's office, reading the New Yorker, and there was an article about bonobos and how they inspire hippies with their free love lifestyles, and there was a picture of the monkey's doing it.
Also, I just found out 5 seconds ago, don't GIS bonobos.

I wouldn't be surprised, though. He's pretty much done with the alphabet. It might be time to start working on the small letters.

That's a rhetorical question, right?
If I wasn't in London I'd offer to greet you! :P
Uh...as much as I love living here, I can't think of anything particular to suggest that you do.
Rafting?
Sorry. :oops:
I hear we have a good canoe club, actually :P

Half the southwest US is apparently on fire.

Women cannot dip thier stuff in it.
It does not work.

I guess you can fuck me.
I look on Wikipedia and I see there is a Gen C. What the hell is that?
returns the goldfish
A goldfish is hardly a pet. I'm talking about something that lives for years and requires significant time investment, like a dog or a child.
haven't you always wanted a monkey
You know that Dane Cook bit where he talks about the one monkey hater that's always in the room? That's me.

Yep, one of the principles I was raised on was "don't play with your food". :P
Also, I just found out 5 seconds ago, don't GIS bonobos.
Also, I really really want to see Koei do something innovative and good.
