Boone's Farm was what you moved to in high school when the Bartles and Jaymes (in bulky two liter bottles) started to look like kid's stuff.

From those crazy Polynesian/Chinese restaurants you find all over New England, give me anything with Blue Curacao.

Rye is Don Draper's drink of choice—so it's bound to get popular.

I don't know the brand, but the international aisle at my local Giant carries a non-alcoholic Sangria soda. It's really good.

Sterno.

Hey! Give me an IC Light!

About flavored vodka—what you do is get the vanilla flavored vodka and mix it with Coke.

What's your favorite color?
This Q&A bit is wearing pretty thin.

Yes, I would like to drive your Lamborghini.
But I don't want your strange cake from Brooklyn.

The pop song in question was an attempt to sum up the moment—which may or may not support the 'End of History' thesis—but I remember when it came out there were a lot of rolling eyes.

Juanito—I worked at a record store when I was a junior in high school, at the point where the dominant format was (believe it or not) the cassette. Wear the right pair of military pants with side pockets and you could walk out with 4 new albums a night. That's where the original addiction came from, and I'd say I was

"Curiouser and curiouser!" Cried Alice (she was so much surprised, that for the moment she quite forgot how to speak good English).

10, 000 is a lot of posts. I've only got 8376 (since they started counting) and I've been at it for a much longer time.

That's some bitchin' Hiroshige though.
