I picked up a bottle of Hendrick's today along with a bottle of Tanqueray Ten(left over xmas box set, I couldn't resist). The T10 tastes a lot like Bombay Sapphire, not bad at all but I expected a bit more. The Hendrick's is better than both in my opinion and makes for a perfect gin & tonic with a slice of key lime. The bottle pours terribly though, I ended up with more on the counter than in the glass the first time (be sure to have a pour spout at the ready). Looks like I have a new favorite, now all I have to do is convince the local cookie store to keep stocking it (the bottle that I purchased had lots of dust on it and there were only two more behind it).

Told ya.

I went back and bought the last two bottles today. Jim said he had planned to drop it but would keep a few bottles in stock since I'm such a good customer. Drunk.sml

See? It's always a good idea to be buddies with the owner of a liquor store.

I bought a bottle of Hendricks Gin today. I'm not really a big fan of gin to begin with but DAMN! This stuff is fantastic!
Grey Boy
I'm a big Gin fan, then the Mayor turned me on to this stuff, WOW!
Infusions of,
Coriander, Juniper, Citrus peel, Rose Petals, and Cucumber.
NOT your standard Gin, but something better.

Bombay Saphire has been my no-brainer standard gin for a while, but now I might have to step up to the plate and try Hendricks after your guys comments.
Felis Catus
I would be willing to try gin infused with citrus or rose petals(a gin is actually produced with an infusion of rose petals?!)

What mixes well with rose-flavored gin?

Damn it!

I actually was going to go get some hendrick's last night... all fired up, jump in the car... nothing. Not even a *click*

I replaced the battery less than a month ago. I've been on vacation, and didn't drive it for about 2.5 weeks. Ok, I can understand it not starting. Jump it, drive it around for about a half hour. Repeat the next day. No go today. Fucker!

Thank you. yes1.gif

All right ... if the Fluffster likes it, I'll go give it a try.

Whoo! Finally got some!

This is an interesting gin... you can taste the cucumber, which I find nice and refreshing. It is not as dry as I expected, but then, I've been drinking mostly very dry gins lately.

Thanks for the suggestion, Mr. Mayor! This is inspiration for my next... uhh... creation. In fact... I think I'll go get another glass of inspiration!

Shorted diode in the alternator.

It will kill a battery dead. And, when you install a new alternator without properly recharging the battery (which you already replaced because it was dead the first time) it will in turn overload the new alternator and blow the diodes in it. smiley_abxy.gif
Louched Liver
Blowing diodes!

I saw a guest reading this and it made me wonder what ever happened to the first woman to get stalked on this board. Anyone hear from her?
Off. Jack Batemaster
Yeah, she got smart.
Crosby
Yup, she knew what he really meant by "get some".
Fluffy G

I'd never do that.
Crosby
Onacuz you'd be glad if some of the attention got diverted?
greeneyes
Of course. Also onacuz I'd be more likely to hire some stabbers.
