Re: Huge Mistake

To whom it may concern,

Get  “Mike’s Hard Limeade” back on your shelves immediately or face the consequences.

That is all.

    I remember the Hudson and Landry routine “Ajax Liquor Store” about a liquor store that delivers. I always thought that would be a great idea, especially after 8:00 pm weekdays when all the liquor stores are closed so you have to drive to Woodbury for beer. Why isn’t there one in St. Paul?

    Mitch,

    You might want to give this a try. No, I don’t work for them or own stock. I just thought it was a very tasty patio drink when I tried it a couple of weeks back.

    nate, the brother of a friend of mine purchased a liquor store a while back. Turns out most of the deliveries were daily deliveries to alcoholics who didn’t have cars, but needed a daily supply of booze. Often they were senior citizens. For example, Mrs X expected her bottle of vodka to arrive around 10 AM each morning.

    Do you get a free parasol with every Limeade purchase? Maybe you can just drink peach wine coolers instead…

    I know that there are other states that have these, but can’t remember which ones besides Texas that do; drive through liquor stores!

    Go pickle your liver, ElDar. I’ve got a fever and the only prescription is anything citrus. Especially lime. Especially in this weather.

    Gin and tonic with lime. All the citrus you need.

    That you’d utter the phrase “All the citrus you need” proves you are unclear on the concept of truly jonesing for citrus.

    “Gin and tonic with lime.”

    Bingo!

    Or

    Vodka Limeade! They sell limeade at the grocery store, Mitch.
