*drinks bottle of whiskey and goes back to her office*

Hey a woman after my own heart... I am a JD girl too...

What say we do some shots at mine and forget this thread?

Mind you Mak if you can drink a whole bottle you might have to bring your own!

:-)

hehehe I cant drink the whole bottle but I can drink half....so I will bring my own bottle *grin* ;) Altho I am a JD gal, I prefer Buttered Crown shots. You pour Crown Royal in first,then pour Butterscotch Shnaups on top without mixing it, and oh man, it is GOOD!! Cant even taste the Crown!! Scarey for me, because I have a tendency to drink too many of them :) I dont know what all this has to do with the topic here....so, sorry for getting off the topic hehe

Hmmm, firstly think the drink sounds yummmmmy!

Secondly not sure that getting of the suject is such a bad idea... maybe we could turn it into a 'whats your favourite tipple' thread.

I think all the views are out there and its getting more heated than it needs to be. Only Admin can resolve this one way or another so lets talk about booze insted????

wow...the only thing I could imagine drinking after reading all that is like a magnum of lemon-lime gatorade.

(which tastes surprisingly un-ghetto with the addition of Stolichnaya)

umm. Not with an agency, so I barely understand half of all that, which really limits the extent to which I can comment on it. That said I do have a couple of points. Maybe this makes me impartial-ish.

First, these boards are pretty much the only thing prospective new sleuthers can see before they at least sign up...signing up leads to subscriptions...so be nice. Oh...and randomly mention celebrities, their scandalous foibles and digital technology whenever possible!

Second..Ludacris just bluetoothed me to see if I was bringing my iPod to Angelina Jolie's next adoption.

Third...(and now I'll be serious)...bringing this up again, especially if you know it's got people upset, is flat out unclassy...to an outsider it seems kinda like gloating. Makes me wanna remain an outsider...see first point.

Fourth...couple of posts indicated that these strategic moves seemed not to have increased success rate. Which begs at least two questions: a) is it really an advantage (if not, who cares?) and b) if it's not an advantage, why keep doing it knowing that it is upsetting the very community you want to build?

K I'm done. *Slurps from bottle previously swiped from Makensie's desk drawer*

Lagavulin would have been better, but what the hell...I ain't proud!

Well said!
Thanks for expressing again how this sort of message thread makes newbies feel and how off putting it can be.
Double thanks for keeping the booze theme going!
Gotta go, J-Lo on the phone wanting to know what I am wearing the the Maddie and Guy Ritchie party... we dont want to clash!

*smacks Crunch* How dare you swipe my whiskey *glares* *thinks* Ok, I will share *grin*

maybe there should be a topic on booze in Gumshoe, since this is Sleuth talk :)
