    I won't go near Jaeger. It's all about vodka, whiskey and anything else. But you find me at PAX, I'm game.

    I'll bring one side and you bring the other.

    Any other takers?

    You could always play shot checkers with that.

    When you get kinged, you place a full sized shot in it's place. :D

    i drink long islands all the time, not 100% on them, though. i just know it's got a lot of bang with like 3 shots in it, along with some lemonade or iced tea, depending where you get it.

    [edit] wikipedia's take on it: "A popular variation mixes equal parts vodka, gin, rum, tequila, and triple sec with 1 1/2 parts sour mix with a splash of cola. Close variants often replace the sour mix with sweet and sour mix or with lemon juice, and the cola with actual iced tea" yummy stuff

    Remember boys and girls, its ok to start the night with shotglass checkers(2 oz [or were they on oz...]glasses, you fill them half to start then to the top when kinged), but if you try after you're already half lit, its a one way ticket to blackoutsville on the vomit express.

    Well they're not even an oz.. More like an 1/4 of a real shot for each of them. So one game played full would be like 5-6 shot. So unless you play 4 or 5 games on a row, you need not worry.

    OK, here are all the beers avalible with ease:
    http://www.thebeerstore.ca/Beers/brandsearch_results.asp

    If you know of any Mircos that you wanna try in and around the Ottawa GTA corridor, I MAY be able to get them. Though usually its a safe bet its at the beerstore.

    I reserve the right to not get beers I deem shitty, ie LINK, Even though it may seem like its kinda videogame related, it blows, No Keiths, also no domestic Nationals, cuz you can probably get then anyways.


    Pre edit: apparently Michigan import laws are hella lame, I'm still trying to figure out how much we can bring, because their laws are alot more restrictive then your federal government's.

    an Edit: I just called Michigan's LLC, and It seems that you are allowed to bring in 312ounces of beer per person, so about a two-four each. Without getting special written permission.

    The coffee Ale,Coffee Porter, looks like something I'd like to try.

    And the Cest What Homegrown Hemp Ale, sounds a lot like the Hemp Ale we have in California.

    I get by alright with a vodka redbull mix, it's suprising how strong you can mix red bull before you get too much of a bite

    I wouldn't be carrying your alcohol across the border in a cooler, it might look a little too much like you're trying to drink it on the road. As long as you buy the beer warm you can cool it later with no problems.

    true, but beer that never gets warm is far better than beer that is warmed and later cooled.

    If the beer was never cold in the first place, then it never got warm, it just was warm, and tastes better after its first cooling than beer out of a cooler that warms up and gets cooled again.

    It's all so clear to me now

    Anyways the cooler was just to hold the beer regardless of it's temperature state. The plan in my head was to introduce the liquor to the ice machine once I arrived at the hotel. I was just wondering how much a cooler's worht of beer would cost to bring over the border.

    If you're alcohol cooling needs are anything like ours were last year, you'll need to have them bring down the ice. Last year, the hotel we were staying at's ice machines weren't up to the task of filling our bathtub with ice, so we had to call them up and have the ice brought in from the kitchen.

    I might spice up Sealab with some sake, a genre of libation I see nobody has even mentioned, you heathens. I suppose I can understand, outside of the west coast, sake in the US has only any real hold in New York City. The only thing I'll need to resolve is whether to bring a large bottle of relative crap or small bottles of good quality. Sake bombs will not be tolerated.

    I also might bring some mead, another greatly underappreciated drink.

    Too bad I can't deliver these in great volume, so it's best to stay on my good side and come to the hardware industry panel I'm going to be moderating this year. Also, if any girls are making out with each other like last year, they will be given priority.
