I hope you at least got an uncomfortable laugh out of it with your waitstaff.

Eww. I can just see the wheels spinning: negroni -> nigger -> black -> black russian?

We made a weekend trip to Halifax through Newark a few years ago. The Friday departure from home was delayed long enough to miss the connection in Newark, which was under construction, and finding the airline’s desk took several trips on the tram between buildings.

If corporations like Oracle never supported their software for Macs, don’t ask us how you can run Oracle’s software on your Mac. Get a PC like a normal person.

I’m trying to figure out what units these are supposed to be? Who has a 10oz cocktail glass?
