Erin, I'm sorry, I have to run out. I'd love to talk about this subject with you some other time, though, OK?

Oh, and before running out - IIRC, tomorrow, the 1st of June, will be Jon B and FAQwife's anniversary, right?

And now, as promised - running out. Have good rest-of-the-week-s and great weekends, everybody!

Disclaimer, but I'm not familiar enough with the subtleties of alcohol mixing to figure out how to make it "nobody's friend," yet still appealing.

Lots of vodka.

How about "Beneath You" tequila/Jagermeister shooters using a brand of the former where someone would risk getting the worm?

My friends are tequila snobs... there would never be a brand that might have a worm within ten feets. (The typo is funny enough to stay.) But a tequila/Jager shooter would go over well... for everyone except me, as I both dislike and distrust Jager.

There's nothing stopping you from putting a gummy worm into the tequila, you know.

" A vague disclaimer..." LI iced tea-- "may contain alcohol."

(Posting from my blackberry this morning)

I thought about that Theo! (And I feel ashamed that I had to go look up "Beneath You" to figure out why the worm was important. Commence mockage now.)

Desperation apparently prompted my sister and friends to invent a new drink last weekend, consisting of whiskey and grape soda (grapeskey). That was certainly nobody's friend.

All in all I think bon bon's idea is better.

What sarameg said, Tom. Driving people crazy by showing up at the wrong time or place or not showing up at all is part of the deliveryperson's code.

Exactly. Please don't tie the nice and well deserved (new furniture) in with the annoying but probably unavoidable (delivery mixups). Pretty soon, you will have the new furniture, and the delivery people will be off annoying other people.

How about: Band Candy. Which just needs to have chocolate and be really really strong....
