Cotzumalguapa!


Ahha! As you've noticed, Papa's got a brand new bag. I'd like to thank everyone for coming out to Rock the Vote. It was a reaffirmation of this digital utopia. Big Up's for the write-in's --some highlights were:

"Goomba Soup"
"Guinea Gezzete
"Chardonnay Cowboy"
or even "Knights of the Highlands" (which is either Jeff Lazaro or one of my sisters)

Why the title? Because we came home from Q on Clement St. after the greatest deal on a NY Strip (Spiff, right?) anywhere close -$14.95. Linday got the _loaf and we got the cheesecake to go. It sort of went: "We'd like to share the cheesecake only in our pajama's". To which our gay (happy) waiter asked if we were coming back in the pj's. Now, Lindsay and I might share a late glass of wine after a dinner like this --however, I find myself solo (for a wonderfully, beautiful reason sweetheart) and curious if an iced down Jameson would not be nice before hitting the 5th straight workday. Possibly. Definately? No go. No Jameo in the house. No iced down 'sippin tea'. Here it is: For a relaxing post-deal on the NY night--col' gots to be!

Santa Lucia Cotzumalguapa --providers of Zaya Gran Reserva 12 year old. This is a sample bottle I got as a parting gift one night (a year ago) from Chase at Cosmopolitan on Spear St. here in San Francisco. Chase and I see eye to eye it seems, simply from me joining in on Access after-work get togethers. Chase is a good dude. He was even nice enough one Friday night to politely ask Lindsay if it was ok if I put my sweater back on because the "Fuck Ya'll I'm from Texas" t-shirt was alarming to some of the patrons having dinner. I had just flown in from business in Austin, the capital of TX --understandable (oh and the "you're in blue country now", comment from one of the bartendars really assured me that this was the greatest $9 I'd ever spent). Perhaps I should thank Access or mabe Afflixio (he doesn't read this) for the heady intro to Chase, but because of the 'no Jameo' thing, I'm into the Chaz rum and if I may...."Daddy needs a Jameo!" [Jay'Mo]

Well, its interesting of course and the thought does certainly count with a gift of a nice bottle no matter how small (see many nips from stockings past) -- but I just can't get over the paint thinner aspect. I boiled the water and let it stand in the snifter before dumping then pouring the rum. I even paired it with the cheesecake! I'm not sure --maybe I'm more of an iced down than an dump and pour man, er Daddy (to be). If anyone (Chase?) has any thoughts on improving this, please comment. Comment, get it? Comment?

Thanks everyone again who voted or even visits here. We may have new survey's coming up soon --Doctor and I still need to patch our bikey-gang name to our jackets.

I like the new name but now I want a cocktail. It's only 9 a.m. More important, do you know if I can buy a "Fuck y'all I'm from Texas" t-shirt online? It's waay better than the "Don't mess with Texas" one that I picked up in Austin a million years ago. When I wore it, the irony was lost on several people in Boston too. Money well spent indeed.
