    Tequila, and lots of it. My new favorite is Corzo.
    Spoken to me at a bar in Galway. "TEQUILA! 'Tis a madman's drink! You should be drinkin' GLENLIVET!" I tossed back my shot, and told the gent, he was ABSOLUTELY correct and ordered a Glenlivet on the rocks.

    As for Tequila? I GOTS PEOPLE! One of my old contractors has family going to or coming from Meheeco every week. I think he's related to half the country. When my stash runs low, I call Rogelio and place an order. Cazadores, Cien Anos Puro, Herradura, El Jimador, and Coralejo are my favorites. El Jimador is the smoothest to me, but I like 'em all. Coralejo in the tall skinny blue bottle is the wildest tasting. It's different but it GOOD.

    NOT Guilty yer honor..


    The mescal idea sounds like fun. Have been known to shoot out the lights when under the influence of over indulgence in said medicine in the past.

    MajorEthanolic had two razors to send out, one to Lynn for honing and one to me for reshaping. Take a wild guess what happened.

    cudarunner - it was me... I had a razor I was sending to Lynn for honing (the aforementioned Ralph Aust "Solinger Handarbeit"), and another razor (a broken one) I was sending to guitstik. Got the boxes mixed up. Lynn got the snapped blade and guitstik got the good razor. Luckily he's honest and forwarded it onto Lynn for me!

    I haven't sent it yet. It's in a box addressed to Lynn, but I decided to send one of mine as well and that is when the ADD/OCD kicked in and I can't decide which one. That, and the fact I haven't been able to get to the post office yet.

    Just sent it today. I ended up sending three one George Wostenholm and two Wade & Butcher's. I figure that should give me enough sampling to determine if my razors are up to snuff.
