I just looked in my freezer. It only contains two half empty bottles of tequila and a can of limeade. :(
Tequila is nasty.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

Perfect ingredients for a date rape.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Tim has a point, though. Tequila, when drunken pure, is disgusting. The smell retches my stomach. I prefer whisky three times over. In cocktails it's pretty fine, though.

Tequila from the freezer is lovely, although not as lovely as vodka.

At any rate, Tequila is an essential foodstuff as it is the key ingredient of margaritas. :mmm:

Margaritas are too sour.

I often wonder why those hot women don't just marry the rich.

Though the stereotype is of rich old guys marrying beautiful golddiggers, the reality is that most rich guys marry women of their own social class.

New money marries the hot ones, old money marries within class and keeps a hot one or two on the side.

:huh:

There are more hot women than there are rich men, so it's not like they're turning down rich guys left and right.

The 2nd Monday in August, a Rhode Island tradition. Known as VJ (Victory over Japan) Day until just a few years ago when the liberal pussies in the legislature changed it. It's now officially called Summer Day or some bullshit like that but everyone still calls it VJ Day.

Depends how you define rich.
Rich rich then yeah.
But there's plenty of middle class men and some hot working class women.
