December 5th, 2008 marks the 75th anniversary of Prohibition ending.:clap:

The Times-Picayune reported that "musty old recipes are being hunted in attics and bureau drawers as skilled bartenders, casting off the derogatory Prohibition title of bootleggers, are preparing for the days when correct drinking will again be among the arts and mixing drinks an abstruse science."

Everyone have a drink and use the word 'abstruse' today!:wave:

Ascension Parish has an abstruse law regarding drive-thru daiquiris, but I suggest you exercise your rights today.:wave:

Amen Skunky!

As I raise my glass of much-needed red tonight I will also be thankful for the relaxation of Florida's wine-shipping rules. Mr. TFT is in Napa this weekend ("business") and he is not allowed to come home until at least one decent UPS wine shipment has been arranged. :wave:

Unfortunately it is for me. I just explained my dilema to Skunky here:

But, you can start. :biggrin::wave:

No, no, no JDarg, you will be hosting an SEC (Seriously Energetic Children) championship slumber party tonight. You need to stay sober.

Yes, we forgot until it was too late. :bang: Next week for sure!

Amen Skunky!

It's about time, of course there is the trick of going to Uline and purchasing these. Then you package everything before you get to UPS. They never had a clue.

Mmm holiday drinks. :wub:

Is Cinnamins still in business? As a wee frat pledge I patronized that fine establishment. Gotta love Airline Hwy:roll:
