Plus Vodka is the traditional drink of those living in far Northern latitudes, so the ice-cold Vodka reminds you of the frozen tundra, ice weasels, etc....
Yes, it cools my blood and soothes the otherwise extremely frustrated ice weasel hunters lurking about in my DNA (I wanted to say mitochondria there, but my mitochondria is more southerly, alas)
I used to store my vodka in the freezer, but I swapped it out to store more food. Now I just stash it in there overnight if I'm throwing a party.
My neighbors keep their martini glasses in the freezer, which I would also totally do if I had a bigger freezer. They make fantastic martinis.
Right now I have about 6 lbs of chicken breasts (divided), 1 parbaked baguette, chopped spinach, peas, broccoli, probably a banana or two, french fries, various half-packages of sausages, and some latkes.
You only can walk in NY? I guess I must be doing it wrong. Perhaps I'm not walking pretentiously enough.
Would vodka be good after 17 years unopened? I was given a bottle back when I left my old job in November 1992, and never did open it. I have moved it from apartment to apartment, and probably should toss it if it's no longer any good.
I don't see how vodka could possibly go bad. It's alcohol and water.

And if you're in doubt, Mythbusters proved you can pour it through a few filters to improve it.
Or you can use it to treat foot odors.
There was an actual
Paleolithic Prescription
book published a few years ago, written by actual paleoanthropologists who have studied up on diet and general lifestyle. It really turns out to be, duh, high in fiber, low in fat, low in sweets, with plants contributing like 80% of calories. Oh, and walking/running a whole lot.
Not exactly what the paleo-hipsters are shooting for, you know?
Timelies all!
Our freezer has: One package of cod filets, one large bag of Empire chicken breasts(with rib meat), several packages of leftover cooked chicken leg quarters, a couple of freezer bags with lunch meat, four ice cube trays, a bag of whole grain bagels and an ancient block of margarine.
IIRC, my freezer has several bags of veggies, an old box of individually wrapped chicken breasts, two juice concentrate cans, and a canister of coffee beans for my mom's next trip out when I have my surgery (I like coffee, but never make it at home, so I only keep it for her visits).
