What did you eat today?
Add some Quaaludes or Tuinals, and you'll have a great party that no one remembers.
Quote: DieterQuote: EvenBobThis is a great video about Everclear the 95% alcohol Booze. In the three and a half years I had the bar we always had the same bottle because nobody ever ordered it because the stuff will literally kill you. This video is spot on and hilarious

My brother and I used to drink straight 95% grain alcohol.
Our preference was for Ambur, not Everclear. It tasted better.
He has since quit drinking entirely for medical reasons. I barely drink anymore.
DRich, was the Everclear you had for party punch the "defanged" 75% version? I thought they had laws.

I am pretty sure it was the 190 proof but honestly that was 40 years ago so my memory may be faulty.

My too-quick review says there were major relaxations in Iowa liquor practice around 1987, like going from exclusively state liquor stores to private liquor stores (supplied via a state wholesaler).
Of course, Missouri is only around a 1 hour drive, and I'm pretty sure there's a state line liquor store around Eagleville, next to the fireworks stand.

I was in Iowa from 1984 to 1989. i remember the state stores but don't remember buying liquor at other stores. Beer and wine were available pretty much everywhere.
nice picture!

Quote: odiousgambitI cracked a joke once about your wives, when you said you were 'vacationing with the wives' or similar ... I assumed you meant it as "we guys are vacationing with the wives", each having one. I then cracked the joke about it ... I apologize, it seems likely you do have more than one wife
nice picture!

Yes, and the fact that alcohol was being consumed in the picture added to my confusion, so I figured it would be better to let someone less confusable be the one to go there.
Quote: DRichAnniversary dinner with the wives at Peau De Vache in St. Martin. We had three large steaks, twice baked au gratin potato's, two bottles of wine and two espresso martinis. A wonderful evening and back home tomorrow.

So this is you and your daughters? You look exactly like I envision every computer programmer looking like. You need some face tattoos. Get right on that.

The other "wife" is just a very close friend that used to live with my wife and I. She travels everywhere with us. Last year Italy, this year St. Martin, and next is Paris in January.
The reason I refer to her as my wife is because so many people thought she was my wife because we would always be out together even without my actual wife. On the beach this week a women came up to me and commented that she loved my "wife's" swimsuit. My actual wife was not with us at the beach that day.

Complicated by the fact that they look almost identical to strangers.

As for thinking you might have 2 wives, you did live in Vegas for a while I think and that's near Utah and you can see where I'm going with this
