Drink of Choice

I had a pretty bad experience with whiskey when I was 14. Today the term is alcohol poisoning. 41 years later, I’m trying to get through the whiskey sickness that still lingers. I actually have started off with several on the rocks and on Super Bowl Sunday made a couple of Whiskey Sours with Maker’s Mark (The regular stuff. I’m not there yet…) I decided to garnish with a slice of blood orange that I bought to make some blood orange wine with.

badfire2625 Very nice, still pushing that Orange, Orange. Very nice though

badfire2625 mine was blackberry schnapps, haven’t got near that stuff since. Though I don’t have issues with the European style at all.

badfire2625 I still can’t stand Jack Daniels since a New Years many moons ago when I thought it’d be a good idea, to just keep drinking Jack on the 4 hour ride home the next day from where we went to celebrate.

Tex_77 Mine was essentially almost a fifth of Seagrams 7 and about a half a fifth of Canadian Club while taunting the rest of the guys for needing a nipple on their drinks. I did that amount in 4 gulps and yeah… Liquor, caffeine and bad decisions. Story of my life. Things have certainly changed since I found

Tex_77 I hope you weren’t driving.

GWG8541 Nah. Driving isn’t legal at 14. Of course, neither is drinking, but anyway. I was riding with one of the boys I was taunting, who wasn’t as drunk… Actually the saying should be Liquor, nicotine, caffeine, loose women and bad decisions… Literally every one of those things came into play that night. Oddly I can remember it all. LOL

GWG8541 press the reply button, then click the icon in the upper right that looks like a mountain with a dot above it, then select the picture you want to upload.

GWG8541 the last screen is what it looks like and the error message pops up at the bottom. I’ve been trying to figure it out for a few days.

GWG8541 Ok, I know what the problem is, the file you are trying to upload is to big. The easiest way I have found to fix that is to take a screen shot of what you are trying to upload, then upload that. That should create a file small enough to upload.

GWG8541 try selecting ‘Show Preview’ upper right corner on the same ‘Reply’ page. If the picture comes up hit the send button

Tex_77 The screen shot didn’t work either. Time for a bourbon break.
