How did you like the completed limericks, crypto? I value your critiques.

I was thinking of reviving and revamping your limerick thread. Have us give you subjects and see what you can churn out.

This is the odd part of my Wednesday when I sit around waiting for pages to proofread. Anyone care to join me in a tipple whilst I wait?

I've been thinking that we need a bar thread index thread.

Vodka is just grain alchohol cut with water. That's the recipe pure and simple. Now, the water used makes a big difference. Gin is also grain alchohol cut with water but botanicals are also added.

According to a random survey of indignant Vodka swilling Polish immigrant soccer players Vodka was first created in Poland and was not originally made with potatoes.

For now I want a tiny glass of Madeira. Blandy's 15-year-old. Brings back memories of that blessed island.

Okay, bumped the limericks thread, and added the ones from last night's festivities. Even the one that wasn't very good, but it was a learning process (and GE wasn't specific enough about what she wanted.)
