Infinite MonkeysThe Atomizer misunderstands the Summer of Gin:
Atomizer Sez: What?! Alcohol has seasons now??!! Nonsense, I declare!!!! Drink what you like when you like...period.The point, of course, is not to dictate that only gin could be imbibed (how un-American!) but to suggest that this summer, gin would be an excellent choice--and if you haven't been drinking it (not a problem for a gin-soaked boozer like the Atomizer) you should try it...
I think he's just bitter that it's still 42 degrees in Minnesota. I suggest a nice aged rum by the fire...

Posted by: rabidsquirrel at April 28, 2008 08:08 AMI don't misunderstand the Summer of Gin, I just object to assigning such long time periods to the enjoyment of any particular elixir.
For example, right now I'm enjoying a half-hour of bourbon. This may be followed by another half-hour of bourbon. Or, it may be followed by an hour of gin and fifteen minutes of pale ale.
Then again, I may feel like following up the half hour of bourbon with a solid two hours of gin and then an extreme five minutes of tequila shots.
Seasons are way too long...that's all I'm saying.
