I keep thinking about the Tandem idea for the april fools race. I could take the chain off the bike so you wouldnt have to pedal, but then you would have to steer and tell me when to stop since the bike has drum brakes. Basically, I would be powering the bike... blindly. hahahaha. Could be a lot of fun though! The other option is that you lay down in my BOB trailer and drink beers while I cart you around. Think about it gimpy, hopefully I will see you tonight at the bar where we can pour beer on your foot.

way to perpetuate the stereotype that all canadians love hockey.
Its not a stereotype. We also love igloos, red flannel jackets and we put maple syrup on everything. Eh!

Quite possibly. I'm pretty sure it was an M name. Tall cat? I feel bad about not remembering the name, but a boozy weekend does not effective memory make.

fair enough. Maybe you can help with another question me and some people have been trying to dig up: what high end vodkas are kosher for passover? And do you know of a list somewhere of good liquor in general?

vodka will never be kosher for passover. its a grain alcohol. what kind of liqour are you looking for?
like whiskey, scotch, vodka and the like

Well potato vodka (like chopin) is, in theory, kosher for passover (as is grape vodka like ciroc) but without a rabbi supervising the process there are no guarantees against crosscontamination and the like. Me, i'm an irish catholic, but have spent my life surrounded by jews, going to holiday meals, having discussions like this one (though more in recent years for alcohol discussions). And so while i dont have an actual stake in the outcome, it's always nice to get information from others 'in the know'. So any drinking tips outside of kosher for passover vino you got, i'll take.
maxknee
04-05-07, 02:34 PM
ah. i mean at my passover we had kop wine and non kop wine.
its weird. i mean i love whiskey but cant drink it for a week since its grain

Yeah, one of the benefits to dating my last girlfriend was her parents giving me all the beer they had leftover at the start of passover. Never thought about the whisky. SHould have asked for that. haha.

or any alcohol really. besides wine. since most if it is grain based anyway
