New Drink

[AR]

I think we can assume that bars everywhere are scrambling to come up with a drink that they will call the "Spitzer Spritzer." Today's question is, what should be in it and how much should it cost?

Thank you for lightening it up

OMG I am not going to touch that one; don't want to get booted of the board

I think this will COME close to actual ingredients! And it should cost $25.00...I think that might be the average cost of an antibiotic shot.

Ingredients
3 cups unsweetened raspberry-flavored sparkling water, chilled
3 cups cranberry-raspberry drink, chilled
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons crème de cassis (black currant-flavored liqueur), divided


Preparation
Combine the sparkling water and cranberry-raspberry drink in a pitcher; stir well. Spoon 1 tablespoon crème de cassis in each of 6 glasses; add 1 cup juice mixture.

Top with a lemon slice and a cherry stem!

Enjoy!

just take everything off the top shelf, mix it all together with a splash of coke or sprite and it's called "The Garbage Can" for a mere $100.00

Melody--

Have you mixed up a batch? Was it good for you?

I was reading today about a quote from a Congressman back during the Lewinsky mess. The context was why do the wronged wives stand next to their men while they're copping to their misdeeds.

The Congressman said, "If I tried anything like that, my wife wouldn't be next to me at the podium. She'd be looking down at my bloody body on the kitchen floor and asking, 'How do you reload this thing?'"

My kinda woman.

AR,
Which Congressman? Now that's the man I'd like to see running for President. That's my kind of guy... and gal!

Way too complicated! How about a glass of soda that someone spits in for free? 8)

AR..go back and read the quote from our Lousiana's senator's wife who during the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal said what she would do if she ever caught her husband cheating...then flash forward to what she actually said a few months ago when he actually was

politician's wives are just like their spouses..hyporcritical

he needs that new powder drink "lust potion # 9" with a side order of "crow" served on a plate of "oh crap"

Venice--

From the first day of the scandal I've been wondering how many downloads there have been of "Love Potion #9." I bet there have been a lot. Oh, and you're trying to convince me that some politicians and their families are hypocrites?! You're preaching to the choir on that one. We really do have to learn to hire a better class of politician. I'm also in favor of term limits for Congress, because I think part of the problem is that these guys tend to get fatter, less attentive, and more cynical the longer they are here. It's supposed to be a temporary gig, and I think it should be.

Beenie--

The column was in the Post and written by Gene Robinson who said that the guy who told him the story couldn't remember the name of the Congressman who said it. It may be that it's just a legend, but I still love it.

And finally, I love what Keith Olbermann said about the fetching Ms. Dupre--the Mayflower Mistress. Talking generally about how some people are saying that she'll be emotionally scarred for life as a result of all this, Keith demurred, and said. . .

"She's standing on the free-throw line of life and she's got ten shots coming."

My prediction: even though she does have ten free throws, she's likely to toss up ten airballs. She will go on to be another Brittany, Paris, etc. . .young women who are famous for being famous. She will release inane records, some people will buy them, and she'll be in the tabloids through all her drug rehab sessions. With luck she won't overdose and kill herself, but the sooner we forget about her the better.

or she will marry Charlie Sheen or Dave The Wave or Hugh Hefner ::
