I didn't care for the Fernet. I'm sensitive to bitter flavors and that just did me in. Don't like anise flavors at all.
Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I look more rad than Lutheranism
Dude, yeah, the Fernet tasted like ASS. And it definitely *tasted* like it should be flammable, even though Jilli and juliana proved that it isn't.
Me for bourbon. Or beer. Or wine. Just not Fernet.

move out and draw fire
I kinda liked the Fernet, and I hate ouzo or anise in general. A little dab'll do ya, however.
Finally got photos on Flickr from the F2F. I didn't take many, but here they are: [link]

Awesome pics, Raq!
I love this one even though I look like a midget in it. The hard hat shot--classic!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
It has been suggested I try the Fernet Mente. Mint is a good thing but maybe it'll just taste more like toothpaste than the mouthwash it does now?

Igniting alcoholic beverages can be tricky, and yes, not all of them are. But for the ones that do ignite, you'll frequently have to chose a narrow glass, preferably with more or less straight sides, and cup your hand over the top for a minute or two to allow the vapors to build up in the glass.
Of course, I wasn't present for juliana and Jilli's demonstration, so all of this may have been done anyway.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Fay, I've had Becherovka and like that, too. I hate ouzo and pastis (aka Pernod), but am fond of absinthe.

I'm definitely NOT a supertaster.
I would like to know how supertasters feel about vinegar? And vinegary things like pickles? (I LOVE pickles.)
