And a very joyous day to the perceptive and clever....

Have ale! And gifts! And all your heart desires!

Hurray for you, sweet Lady!

Have a prosperous year!

I remember this one very well. Those were the good times.
Although I am not sure what "club soda" is. I missed it.

Ingredients

  • 2oz Cuban white rum
  • 1 lime (or 2 ounces lime juice)
  • 1 tsp powdered sugar
  • 4 Mint leaves
  • Club soda


Instructions

  1. Muddle mint leaves and sugar
  2. Fill with ice, then add rum and lime juice
  3. Stir, then add a splash of club soda
  4. Garnish with mint sprig


Ah, yes. 'tis better: The mojito is a descendant of the Draquecito, named after Sir Francis Drake and said to be his favorite drink before pirate battles. That drink is made with cachaça rather than rum, and uses water instead of ice and soda, neither of which would have been available to Drake on the high seas.

I think I will give it a try tonight.

Mph

It would take a more sophisticated man to understand this.
Still, I understand that I am not friendly.

Dowtie asked me to do it. Who am I to refuse such a gentleman a simple request?
WHAT'S THE NEXT LINE (Survey)
The meaning of my display name is...The naked truth.
I am listening to...the waves crashing at my feet, and thunder in a distance. There is a storm building.
I've come to realize that my ex...wives didn't love me in the least.
I love...Do I have to answer such a question? The sea, of course.
My best friends...I do not have best friends any longer. As they say in French, "Un ami est déjà la moitié d'un traître"
I can't understand...men who are sick at sea. I become sick on solid ground, at the sole sight of people living on it.
I lost...too many ships.
People...need a firm master; they like to submit.
Love is...not for a man of my caliber
Somewhere, someone is...sleeping in a Sir Francis Drake hotel. (Is there any Thomas Dowtie hotel? No? I thought so)
I will always...love the sea
Angels are...for fools
I never want to...give up. Never.
My mobile phone is...What is this?
When I woke up this morning...I was alone in my bed. A most annoying thing, this.
I get annoyed when....things and people do not abide by my rules
I am thinking about...putting out at sea as soon as possible
My friends are...simple men who will not turn on me. If such men exist.
Last night I...had a dream of Thomas. We were in Ireland, kissing passionately, half hidden on a grassy spot at the side of a cliff. Aye. That was good.
Today I...take this survey.
It would be nice...to be squeed at, like Thomas unduly is
I really want...a nap.
The person most likely to take this survey is...whoever wants to.

CREATE YOUR OWN! - or - GET PAID TO TAKE SURVEYS!

Aye. This is true






What Aspect of Water Are You




You are the sea aspect of water. This makes you beautifully serene and terribly unpredictable. As the sea, you have no problems with letting out your feelings, maybe in the form of storms. But you can be helpful as well, like the sea supporting much life. The farthest aspect from yours is the pond or lake. Your blue is a deep sea-green-blue.
