    Seriously... my buzz is helping my Monitor 7s immensely.

    Although with the super ghetto stands that Nikolas812 and i rigged up, they are sounding much better than my initial impressions.

    I don't like cheap **** fizzy yellow watter beer, and don't drink well hardly at all anymore but do enjoy the occasional beer or two or three you get the picture, And I drink more full beer. Not Guinness thats the blizzard of beers, I remember drinking it as a kid trying to look cool and fit in and saying to myself how in the hell can people actually like this crap? but after I stooped drinking one time I actually found myself craving a beer, weird.
    My fav of all time was long island iced tea but have not had one in a long time.

    Hahaha, i love me some long islands.

    Lately i've been on a Mojito kick, though. I've been enjoying that immensely.

    Quit smoking, have to make up for it somehow, right? :p

    Bombay Sapphire Martini's up with a couple olives, yummy. However after maybe 6 or 7 the music really floats and so do I. The funny thing is that my wife says she'll hear some funny noise like I am snoring between songs I can't imagine that is me.

    This is a pretty good guide to start. May have to tweak it to your taste. :)

    Of course, beergoggles and beerphones have been making mediocre women and audio rigs more tolerable for decades.;)

    Vodka Martini, shaken not stirred or on the rocks w/ 2 anchovy olives. ;)

    They look great in my dreams since I am generally sleeping after 6 or 7 Martini's. I love drinking them out of a large martini glass, of course more gin in them and top shelf olives marinated in the gin for awhile. Damn its only noon and I am thinking about mixing them up :eek::eek: Boy would my wife be thrilled if she gets back from church, cemetery and shopping to see me drinking martini's already.
