Beware! My son and I were already half in the bag, we got lost in the bowels of MGM and ended up in their laundry facilities. Took us about an hour to figure out where we parked the damn car. Then we got lost trying to find our way back to our place.
My son was hungover for 2 days and I was for 24 hours.

Mine: La Floridita Daiquiri, despite it being Hemingway's drink of choice.
Two parts grapefruit juice (I prefer 100% Ruby Red)
Two parts rum
One part simple syrup
One part lime juice
I am enjoying several tonight, actually. Love a good White Russian.TA1LGUNN3R wrote:White Russian.

Because I'm a troll? But yeah, there are certain things which simply must be said, and in a certain way; and this was one of those instances. In other news, I learned a lot about Hemingway while walking around Pamplona.Symmetry wrote:Why "despite it being Hemingway's drink of choice"?Serbia wrote:What's your favorite cocktail?

Pour one jigger absinthe into a Champagne glass. Add iced Champagne until it attains the proper opalescent milkiness. Drink three to five of these slowly.

I haven't... and it sounds deadly, particularly at those quantities.Symmetry wrote:On the Hemingway front, ever tried a Death in the Afternoon?

Never been to Key West. In fact, I've spent less than 24 hours in Florida, all of them in Miami, which is a shame. At least I got to go to the beach.tzor wrote:I learned a lot about Hemingway when living in Key West.Serbia wrote:In other news, I learned a lot about Hemingway while walking around Pamplona.

Key West is an interesting place. It was even more interesting in Hemingway's time when he had to stay a few days because he had ordered a car in Key West and decided to stay there for a significant portion of his life. Key West and Cuba really form the backbone of his attitude. At his house, he had his writing space on the second floor of a garage next to the main house. There was no staircase, but a swing bridge from his bedroom window to the second floor room.Serbia wrote:Never been to Key West.

When asked in an interview if rumors of him taking a pitcher of martinis to work every morning were true, he answered, “Jeezus Christ! Have you ever heard of anyone who drank while he worked? You’re thinking of Faulkner. He does sometimes – and I can tell right in the middle of a page when he’s had his first one. Besides, who in hell would mix more than one martini at a time?”
