I thought I was going to spend Friday night in front of a computer but then a friend called me and we went out drinking.

The day was saved.  :D :D :D
Now in a tasty new flavour.

We did too.   We sat on the floor and did nothing.  Just us and our Jack Daniels.  If you sat there and did nothing long enough, the room would start to spin and then you would fall asleep.

why so few bottles????

when I was in the Navy the house me and some roommates lived in had 10 times that many bottles under a small christmas tree that stayed up all year round, because we had ho's, ho's, ho's over all year long........

we also had two refrigerators stocked full of beer..........

If it's anything like when I had roomates, there's probably half a bottle of Cuervo under the sofa, a couple of fingers left in a bottle of Seagrams on the nightstand, 3/4 of a bottle of Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum in the freezer that nobody will touch after "the incident", and bottle of absolut floating in the toilet tank in case of emergency.

The Cuervo bottle is my candlestick holder in the bathroom

The Seagrams bottle is.....somewhere around here

The Cap'n bottle broke after "the incident"

The toilet is for crapping, not beverages

Absolut is pretty much made from toilet water, so he's good there.

I have to say that I've never been a vodka drinker. Stuff tastes like an industrial solvent, not like something that I really want to be pouring into my body.

No I wouldn't.  The entire Subway distribution system is set up to profit the corporation.  It's very, very difficult for a Subway to make a profit without running over a hundred sandwiches an hour.
