I prefer a Greyhound (whiskey & grapefruit juice); I make them myself.

The other fruit drink I like is vodka with an 8:1 ratio of vodka:pure lime

I invented a drink of 4oz of whiskey over ice, then toss in a shot of
Bailey's.  A sysop buddy named it "Coming Through the Rye"

endowed squirrel saying to his mate: "Got wood?"

Person 1: "Can I axe you a question?"

Person 2: "I wood stay longer, but I have to leaf now"

Person 3: "birch please!"

I need more. . .

43 totem poles in BC Canada suddenly came to life -- they lived a happy 500
years romping in the rainforests & along the shore of the mighty Pacific. . .

One day one of them was hit by lightning & GONE!
The other two decided to hold a funeral. . .

Mourning wood.
