5 years ago I wrote my 1st liquor review.

Can somebody contact Condoleezza Rice? Alert the press, and call the President. I've found a Weapon of Mass Destruction and it’s called Lichido liqueur. I am a drinker and proud of it. I’ve tasted everything from Johnnie Walker Blue to my Uncle Plug’s moonshine to Zima. (Yes, kids it's true I have an Uncle named Plug, it's a country thing... but I digress.) Out of a long list of liver killing liquors there are two spirits that I will never drink again. The first is Goldschläger , a clear cinnamon liqueur with tiny flakes of real gold, (ICK!) and the second it...Lichido. Lichido is a sick mix of aged cognac, premium vodka, lychees, guavas and white peach juice. It contains 18% alcohol which doesn’t help this stuff taste any better. Lichido has a slick and sexy pink shimmer that will fool you into thinking it's delicious but the combination of Lychee & Guava make it undrinkable. If you’re not familiar with Asian fruits don’t worry I’ve got you covered. Lychee (or Litc...

The Green Hornet Movie in 3 frigging d hits theaters in January of 2011. This girls comes out her top sooner...I hope.

Sometimes you just need a swift kick in the ....

I won't go into why it's been so long since I last posted. That's for another day, another posting. So here goes nothing. My first posting was based on a favorite pastime of mine, collecting quotes. Below is a quote from a forgotten but funny FOX show. A promise to a woman is just a lie that hasn't happened yet . Unhappily Ever After - 8-16-1998 Why this gem? Because it's the 350th quote I managed to scribble in my quote book for that year and I really enjoyed watching that show. It was made with the hope that it would become the next Married With Children ...with a twist. Picture an Al Bundy type but with schizophrenia. Yeah, FOX was taking on the big issues WAY before HOUSE M.D. was a twinkle in the eye of David Shore or while Hugh Laurie was still on the funniest show on BBC One, Black Adder . I'll let you choose the starting point. Anywellness, the 'Father Figure' Jack Malloy played by Geoff (pronounced Jeff) Pierson would talk to a stuffed bunn...

Love the opera, hate Scott Rudin

I t's been a long while in between postings and that's my fault. I want to write, really I do. I need to write, as a venting process. I must write more, to become a better writer (and a typist.) I have to write, for the successful future of me, not for the fame of being a published author. My writing resume speaks for itself- More on that later. The quote below comes from an old co-worker. I worked at the Metropolitan Opera House Call Center. Yes, boys and girls I worked as as Customer Service Rep or CSR or whatever clever name the term spinners in marketing are using now. Working at the Met gave me an education in snobbery, corporate greed and all things opera, and I loved it. Hated management but loved my job. " Tell hayseed over there to comb the hay out of his hair. We're in the city now, let's try to act like it !" Bad Sam @ work 11-23-1999 Sam said this aloud after answering a call from what he considered the lowest of the low...the general public. Usua...

What do you mean I'm a day late???

It's never been easy to just write, I have to be poked and provoked into it and other times my creative juices flow as strong as the currents of the nearly forgotten Niagara. To make a short story long winded... I decided to start blogging because I hate my job ( Sorry Jay) and I need a bigger creative outlet. I do write - professionally- but I've not written for the sake of being creative in a very long time. YEARS ago (1991) my girlfriend (Let's call her Drapes) gave me one of the best gifts I've ever received- A Star Trek Ship's Log Book- It was a blank book for me to fill with quotes from my friends, family and anywhere else I head something funny or mildly amusing. In less than a year I wrote 725 quotes from various sources and filled the book. After that I was hooked. Ecah year since then I bought a new book. Until 2 years ago. Something stopped me from collecting what other people were saying and something else got me started on writing about what I love...
