Red Label or Grant's these days. Usually Grant's tho, for some reason the liquor store almost never has Red Label.

I'm not quite old enough to drink yet, but my mom lets me make her (and have some of) the manhattans she drinks sometimes. my stepfather is just fine with me having a beer every now and then, and right now my preference is with Yuengling.
as for harder drinks, Gentleman jack straight (only a couple shots if at all) does the trick before I go out shoveling.

TLAM Strike: Injecting useful military information into everyday conversation since... erm, since whenever. Edit: Great shot of the Viggen (or is that a Draken?) in that last photo. Had to think about it a little because my first thought was 'Kfir', which it is not.



An old haunt just came to mind... ...and thankfully I cannot remember the aftertaste :



Mad Dog 20/20.

I served during that time in 1981, a torpedo boat Spica, right on the boat as your picture shows, and there were more rocks than ice,

That's right, a great event not only in Sweden but in general this whole world, and it was pretty chaotic and anxious days, when the Russians tried several in quarrying attempted to pull the submarine from the ground, at the current situation had all fixed coastal guns (radar controlled) they were understaffed, and on one occasion when a Soviet cruiser, escorted came only a mile before the Swedish border, so it backed off when the cruiser, was able to notice that the Swedish quarters were locked sight of the cruiser, from a coastal units
