My love affair with the bottle has been a long and somewhat tempestuous one. There was a three-year stretch where I viewed sobriety as a sign of conservative Puritanism. (What do you mean you don't drink? What are you? A fascist Quaker?)
Older and not much wiser, but surely more sober, I've come to realize that loving booze does not have to hurt so good. Although I don't pound it back like I used to, I enjoy a drink pretty much every evening. I think it's so civilized to come home and wind down with a little something on the rocks.
My newest obsession is Bison vodka. This Polish vodka is made from Bison grass native to the Bialowieza forest, home of the European bison. How fucking yuppie is that??? Here's how I recommend that you enjoy this spirit:
In a highball glass, mix 1.5 parts of straight-from-the-freezer Bison vodka with 1 part cassis and 2 good glugs of club soda. Stir and enjoy.
Dorothy Parker herself would shed a tear, this drink is so good.

Jumping on the blog bandwagon
Well it seems everyone and their Filipino maid has a blog of some sort, so what the hell. Basically, I like to ramble/rant about the following:
- politics
- pop culture
- anything that makes me angry
- booze
- myself
With the odd foray into sports and few other miscellaneous topics, this is pretty much what you can expect from me.
