GrumpySmurf 0 #76 December 21, 2001 I saw a few folk drinking those a Pat McCurdy Show (it's a Mid-West thing) with Pat on stage. Somehow it just doesn't seem quite right. Not much of a whiskey person, now Screech mind you, different story (it's a Newfoundland dark rum, almost as dark as Guinness) *heh* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
