What I’m drinking tonight: a Bitter Mai Tai. And it’s every bit as delicious as it looks…maybe more.

As someone who’s butchered his fair share of scotch pronunciations in front of people who know better, I wish I’d had a list like this a long time ago.
Jeffrey Morgenthaler thinks December 5th should be the US’s official “drinking holiday”:
December 5th is the anniversary of the day the United States repealed the Eighteenth Amendment and gave us all the constitutional right to consume alcohol. I’ve been celebrating Repeal Day for years by forcing this information down the throats of my customers, and now I’m forcing it on you.
Since I generally prefer to celebrate my birthday on weekends, and this year’s celebration will fall on Repeal Day, this calls for double the celebrating…right?
I may not be a huge fan of the scotch, but I could watch this ad for Johnnie Walker over and over again. Oh, and if you’re a behind-the-scenes kind of person, there’s an interview with the director that’s worth a quick read.
