drinking is a sin.

Is there anything better than good weather, good company, Crown and Coke, and some female that is dressed to impress to converse with?

You are right- there is nothing better. Except Crown and ginger. Oh, and if anyone who is a Crown drinker goes through the bottle too quickly (read: me) and it gets a touch expensive, try Seagram's VO. Its taste is similar to Crown and it is a bit over half the price. In NC I get a 5th for $14.95...compared to $23.95 for the real thing. I should drink less....

Yes, a female who is undressed to impress with a bottle of champagne and strawberries and laying on a bear skin rug in front of a fire....

Heh.

I actually got into an interesting discussion on this very idea with one of these "blind follower" types a while back. Needless to say, there was a lack of ability to explain a few key things:

-why, if "drinking is a sin", Christ served wine at the Last Supper
-why Christ turned water into wine
-why "a little wine is good for the stomach"
-why the scriptures say "moderation", not "abstinence"
-why the scriptures forbid drunkenness, not consumption
-etc.

I used to drink Bushmills, but can't seem to find it since I moved to Louisiana. Since, I have discovered Crown Royal.

Ever since I got depressed in college and beinged on some cheap Vodka, I can't drink hard liquor straight, so I have to mix it.

To me, the best mixer with Crown Royal is Barq's rootbeer. Most people think I'm crazy, but I can mix the drink 50/50, and the rootbeer in that proportion is just sweet enough to mask the flavors in the whiskey I don't care for without covering the flavors I love. Not all whiskeys mix well with rootbeer.

Now...oddly enough, Crown Royal does not mix well with Royal Crown soda. I guess they're just opposites...

I can't recall if I've tried Gentleman Jack, but I know I don't care for "regular" Jack Daniels. Some flavor in it I don't like. I prefer Jim Beam to Jack. I found that Jim Beam is about the closest in flavor and smoothness to Bushmills I could find when I was looking.

Anybody ever try this? http://www.luxist.com/2006/04/12/old-forester-birthday-bourbon/

I picked up a bottle for $37 after taxes. I'm not really a drinker but I am interested in trying quality products.
