Luck .. a whiskey story for ya Bud ....

When I was attending college I worked summers in Ottawa at my dads.
He was into the Swish thing then not sure if your familiar with Swish or not?
If not Swish is whiskey created from purging used whisky barrels .. and is usually over-proofed.

Well anyway one night(a work night) we killed a 40 and 1/2 a 26er of this stuff for no apparent reason
Talk about a hangover ? ... It gets worse ........
I was working an 11-7 shift at a restaurant called St. Huberts in Orleans. Roast cook.
Wasn't a bad job usually .. but the air conditioning was broken ... and as I mentioned umm the hangover.
The thermometer topped 104 degrees during my shift .. It was aweful I thought I was going to die...

Morale of the story .. I have never drank whiskey since .. I can't even stand the smell of it.

Like beer though

My partner deffo comes first. We've been seeing each other for 3 1/2 months now and I've hardly played much on the PC since. Mainly when she's away really. This has been a major change for a 24/7 gamer - and which I really like though

Although, I did buy an X-Box this weekend so we could play some games together sometimes

She insisted that if I got one it had to be the limited edition one because it "was pretty" with it's transulcent green casing compared to the dull back one. An extra 20 notes, no free game bundle but an extra controller. A nice chat with the store assistant and 3 games later I got quite a good deal - paying cash always helps

Strange thing is, the GF is kinda like playing a game - but with no save or replay functions.
Each day is like a new level - the end of level prize is obvious
And you get to "level up" as well when your feelings for each other get stronger.

Only problem is she can't be upgraded easily ......

I know how it is to work when you're in horrible conditions, I remember when I had no sleep because I just got this pc and I was playing games all night..anyways, I was sleepy, couldn't stay up. I even had a headache..it sucked a lot.

But yeah, that must have been horrible for you!

I feel sorry for you MacDaddy, you've ruined one of the great pleasures of life! Wiskey is a real man's drink, but you don't down THAT much of it, not even close.

Well Luleandy don't be to concerned ... I still sip on Southern Comfort now and again.
And can handle a glass or two of Crown Royal and Mountain Dew from time to time

But the smell out of the bottle still bothers me. And as I mentioned straight whiskey or whiskey and tonic turn my stomach
(Except for Southern Comfort .. its so ... sweet .. so .. smooth ... should never be mixed .. just sipped )
This happened 16 years ago

Luleandy ... 100 posts WOOT !!! .. lets see the next 100 soon

As far as I've heard they are still seperate franchises bro .. St. Huberts is based more in Quebec.
The store I worked at was in the Ottawa/Hull area .... Orleans Ontario.

No, I'm not thinking that! I thought maybe you just were single and didn't wanna be tied down by a girlfriend. Ya know, sounds better than being "hard up" for a gf.

Hmm. you don't seem cocky, I'm sure there is someone out there for you. And no, I'm not feeding you a line of..BS, I mean it. Then again, a lot of the cocky guys get gfs..but these girls are the ones that need attention and are usually..dirty you know? So finding the right one is perfect.
