[!@#$%!]

oh no no i'm simply a glutton and always go for flavor. i've loved gin since i was a little kid ha ha haaaa. no, seriously. my first bad alcohol experience was with rum. my first great alcohol experience was with tanqueray. it's a lifelong affair. and look, ma, no hangover! (not today anyway).

martinis should be cheap to make, but then again i rarely go to bars. gin, dry vermouth, olives, a pitcher of ice, a cocktail glass--no great mystery there. martinis remind me of their late 90s fad and some "rude" memories ha ha ha. they're good to get plastered. i like gibsons more (w/ onion).

you know joan didn't drink vodka martinis, right? i think those are a recent invention in the history of booze. besides, to quote jep gambardella, "drinking vodka is uncouth." i'd say the marketing appeal of a gin with the same name as her real last name ha strong appeal though. damn, you got me thinking about her now. thank you.
