What is in your cup? - Page 17

Fledchen · 02-15-2010, 05:38 PM

I just made a cup of tea from the dust at the bottom of one tin of tea, and a scoop from a different type of tea. I'm hoping they blend well together.

Ack! Good luck! Take your reader and hang out in the bathroom all day

Mine wasn't so good - it didn't put me out, it didn't do much for the pain, and I had bad reaction to it afterwards (fortunately, it started just after I was discharged but still actually in the hospital). Not helped by the procedure taking over twice as long as normal and they still couldn't get the thing all the way round

Then two weeks later a similar process but with xrays. And a bed that span me every which way except upside down... (and they still don't have the full picture)

Same here. And also no picture

As for what's in my cup... nothing!

Off to remedy that!

My buddy had to go through all of that. He lost like 7 pounds from it.

I love Appleton. I did a tour of the factory a couple of years ago during a vacation to Jamaica.

I found it by web-surfing, looking for a decent rum. We've Bundaberg Rum ("Bundy") down here, but it's a pretty coarse thing, and unaffectionately known as "mate-hate" (from mates ending up punching the crap out of each other at the end of the night, fuelled by good ol' Bundy).

Appleton Estate...yeah, it's a bloody good drop. I didn't go to Jamaica to find that out, but I'd happily go there just to confirm it.

Cheers,
Marc

Canadian Club whisky, Buderim Lime Refresher (with ginger) cordial, lemon-infused tonic.

Too much sugar and spirits. I've a rock lobster on being kicked in the head by a migraine tomorrow. Anyone wanna bet against?

Squirt - it's a grapefruit flavored soda. I grabbed it on break at work tonight, for some reason it sounded better than my usual. Now I'm finishing it off at home.

Haven't had that in ages.......

...with gin, right? What? Can I get you a drink?
