T/S: Wine vs beer vs booze this Sat night? Help me decide. Explain the rationale behind your answers. This will not be graded on a curve.

haha! That is MUCH too complicated.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 04:55 (twenty-one years ago)

In the absence of any more sage advice, I have purchased a bottle of wine, and for future consumption a bottle of Stoli Vanilla, which is luxuriating in the freezer. I am avoiding the indie boys this evening and hiding in my bungalow.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 05:28 (twenty-one years ago)

Keeping quiet tonight with a couple of beers myself. Spinning the Sundays and Lee Perry.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 05:35 (twenty-one years ago)

I knew I liked you, Rickey ;-)

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 05:36 (twenty-one years ago)

Great minds drink alike, my mom always says.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 05:38 (twenty-one years ago)

Least that's how *I* heard it.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 05:44 (twenty-one years ago)

I believe it to be true. You are a kindly soul, and shall drink mightily.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 05:45 (twenty-one years ago)

NO: grape and grain orbit grape & grain = don't. or so i bin told. the stoli is gonna wreck yr head after the wine.

― mullygrubbr (bulbs), Sunday, 15 May 2005 05:47 (twenty-one years ago)

right you are--grain and grapes are a no-no. The Stoli is for future consmuption--maybe next weekend. But thanks for the concern about my poor swimming head :)

You know, the worst thing about a cremation is that there's no place to visit. No place to put flowers. No place to go visit. I'm rambling now, but hell, it's a drinking thread.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 05:59 (twenty-one years ago)

Orbit, my friend Carol was cremated, but there's a memorial bench in her honor. [Shrugs helplessly]

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:03 (twenty-one years ago)

I think that's wonderful.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:09 (twenty-one years ago)

I wonder if I could just approach the Hollywood Cemetery or Forest Lawn and get something like that done for G.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:10 (twenty-one years ago)

OK someone tell me the best food you ever ate. Have pity on my drinking soul. Indulge me.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:16 (twenty-one years ago)

Barbecue at that place outside Austin (in Driftwood, maybe?). I can never remember its name.

Chicken vindaloo anywhere, even the cheapest and most average place. It's a weakness.

Heaping plates of spaghetti at Joe's in Richmond, Va.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:19 (twenty-one years ago)

mmmmmmmmm. BBQ
Chicken vindaloo is an admirable weakness.
I have a weakness for the politcally incorrect foie gras with champagne.
So it goes.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:20 (twenty-one years ago)

Well, I went off veal when that was the "proper" thing to do, but I kept eating other meat, so I don't know if that was a truly honorable move, FWIW.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:24 (twenty-one years ago)

i actually never really got into veal, but I am waaaay into lamb, which freaks some people out/ "How could you eat those cute wolly things?" Etc.
Currently listening to : X - Under the Big Black Sun

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:28 (twenty-one years ago)

My, that's a fine bottle of wine.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:30 (twenty-one years ago)

xpost: Yeah, I sorta feel that way about lamb, too, but then it's never been my thing. Neither was veal, really, which made the "decision" that much more hollow.

np: A3, "Exile on Coldharbour Lane."

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:32 (twenty-one years ago)

Red or white?

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:32 (twenty-one years ago)

Cabernet Sauvignon.
np:Amelie soundtrack

I'll have to look up A3, I'm not familiar with them--what are they like?

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:35 (twenty-one years ago)

A3: "Woke Up This Morning" is the "Sopranos" theme. Great cover of John Prine's "Speed of the Sound of Loneliness" inna blues-techno stylee. I wrote a review of the first album calling it the record U2 wanted 'Pop' to be.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:42 (twenty-one years ago)

Orbit, you are a bad influence. I am now drinking Belvedere out of a shot glass emblazoned "Hawaii" with little pictures of surfboards.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:44 (twenty-one years ago)

hahhaha!!!!!
I always wondered who did the Sopranos theme--I always loved it.
I toast you and your tiki shot glass!

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:47 (twenty-one years ago)

almost forgot
np: yeah yeah yeahs " -date with a night

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:48 (twenty-one years ago)

To you. *Click*

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh man, I friggin' love "Date With the Night." You're gettin' busy on the old stereo, eh?

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:49 (twenty-one years ago)

*click*

iTunes!

np:The Headcoatees - Baby Please

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:54 (twenty-one years ago)

Excellent. What's a good Headcoatees record to buy?

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 06:58 (twenty-one years ago)

Actually anything you can find will be worth it--some of it is more garagey, some more punky but it's all interesting girl rawk.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:02 (twenty-one years ago)

No sub-bootleg quality CDs like those that occasionally pop up under dude's name, then?

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:03 (twenty-one years ago)

wellllll

:-)

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:04 (twenty-one years ago)

I point you diplomatically to the Bomp mailorder catalog ;-)

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:05 (twenty-one years ago)

If I could post MP3s, I would....

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:07 (twenty-one years ago)

xxpost Heh heh.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:10 (twenty-one years ago)

Just wondering. That stuff doesn't matter to me so much; it's just that I bought a Milkshakes disc unheard once for a friend and it turned out to be subpar fidelity-wise to her ears. 'S all relative, isn't it?

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:13 (twenty-one years ago)

I think someone really has to have an appreciation for raw garage rock, in its sublimely unproduced glory, to enjoy Thee Headcoatees. They were Riot Grrrl before Riot Grrrl. Pretty amazing, like the chick Sex Pistols of garage.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:16 (twenty-one years ago)

np: Yuri [the Mexican Madonna of the 80s] "Aire"

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:18 (twenty-one years ago)

xpost Sounds good to me. Yuri, too.

np: !!! ("You can learn a lot! By takin' your chances! You can learn a lot! By takin' your pants off!")

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:22 (twenty-one years ago)

Words to live by.

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:23 (twenty-one years ago)

Yup. *Hic*.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:24 (twenty-one years ago)

It's about time for me to crawl towards the pillows and collapse into a grape-induced stupor.

*hic*

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:28 (twenty-one years ago)

Awww.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:28 (twenty-one years ago)

yr the best!

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:35 (twenty-one years ago)

Hardly, but thanks. I do try. You're fun.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:39 (twenty-one years ago)

*falls over*

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:41 (twenty-one years ago)

Ouch! [Heads toward X CDs.]

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:43 (twenty-one years ago)

You are my knight in cabernet armour!

― Orbit (Orbit), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:51 (twenty-one years ago)

Hee hee. I rilly like these li'l surfboards.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Sunday, 15 May 2005 07:52 (twenty-one years ago)

Revive for a boring Friday night

― Orbit (Orbit), Friday, 27 May 2005 21:35 (twenty-one years ago)

Wine, or maybe G&Ts.

― M. White (Miguelito), Friday, 27 May 2005 21:43 (twenty-one years ago)

I think wine sounds good. I do love the cab.

― Orbit (Orbit), Friday, 27 May 2005 22:14 (twenty-one years ago)

Well, it is Black Swan Shiraz this evening, folks.

― Orbit (Orbit), Friday, 27 May 2005 23:02 (twenty-one years ago)

I guess I came too late with my suggestion of
Bottle of red, bottle of white

― Ken L (Ken L), Friday, 27 May 2005 23:06 (twenty-one years ago)

I appreciate the suggestion--how about you get the bottle of white and we can compare notes?

― Orbit (Orbit), Friday, 27 May 2005 23:07 (twenty-one years ago)

The Shiraz is quite a bit fruitier than last week's cab.

― Orbit (Orbit), Friday, 27 May 2005 23:15 (twenty-one years ago)

I'm watching Blade Runner on TV and it's just not as rad as it was when I first saw it.

― Orbit (Orbit), Saturday, 28 May 2005 00:10 (twenty-one years ago)

Have another glass.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Saturday, 28 May 2005 01:02 (twenty-one years ago)

Hmmm. There may be something to that. *drinks*

― Orbit (Orbit), Saturday, 28 May 2005 01:03 (twenty-one years ago)

Actually I got bored and turned the sound down in favor of Luz Azul by Aterciopelados

― Orbit (Orbit), Saturday, 28 May 2005 01:05 (twenty-one years ago)

Rickey, tell me about life.

― Orbit (Orbit), Saturday, 28 May 2005 01:34 (twenty-one years ago)

Fist full of Klonopin.

― Orbit (Orbit), Saturday, 28 May 2005 01:58 (twenty-one years ago)

God, I am really the last person you need telling you about life.

What do you want to know?

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Saturday, 28 May 2005 04:14 (twenty-one years ago)

Tell me this. Why are you the last person to be telling me about life?

― Orbit (Orbit), Saturday, 28 May 2005 04:16 (twenty-one years ago)

Well, I'm not about to tell *everybody*. I'll e-mail you.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Saturday, 28 May 2005 04:22 (twenty-one years ago)

I will receive it with pleasure.

― Orbit (Orbit), Saturday, 28 May 2005 04:23 (twenty-one years ago)

Ah, that's what we like to hear.

― Rickey Wright (Rrrickey), Saturday, 28 May 2005 04:36 (twenty-one years ago)

Never, ever, speak to me again. May a thousand Bikini Kill songs infest your mind forever.

― Orbit (Orbit), Monday, 30 May 2005 18:18 (twenty-one years ago)
