Franzia is top notch to be honest. When I go through the drive thru I usually ask for "red" franzia. I remember running around the house with red wine spilled all over my white polo claiming I killed someone. Have to drink it out of the bag and spill most on yourself thats pretty much a prerequisite for drinking franzia.

OK guys - I'm asking you this one just for giggles. I was at a bar and a guy bought me a Jameson's & Diet Coke. What does this say about him? Please evaluate.
Barbino - I LOOOOOOOVE Brandy Alexanders but I don't have the $$ to drink as many of them as I want to when I get started w/ them. So I don't start.

He's financially irresponsible or trying to make an impression. Well whiskey tastes about the same mixed as Jameson IMO. Jameson is a great sipping whiskey though.

I agree with the above assessment.
I didn't think that Jameson was all that excellent though...(or expensive).

I don't think any bars around here serve it? How much is it?

Eh, doesn't sound so bad to me. I'm a Jameson fan (although I prefer a glass of Jack Daniels), so I'd look favorably upon that purchase.
As to price, it's not terribly expensive - I think it's around the same price as Jack Daniels in bars, although I think it costs less per bottle.

oh crap, really??
Some friends and I ran up an extremely large bar tab when we were in Chicago and I thought it was because our male bud was doing Jameson shots and they were costly. Which means, we drank a hell of a lot more than I thought. yipes.

My old man is a Jameson drinker and they normally cost the same as or only a little more than the Bacardi and diets I order.

Ok, just saw this post. It's really not that expensive, I can't imagine that it's pricey anywhere. Sounds like you had a fun night, though.

EW's version is technically correct, though, too (just a semantics difference). His version is the one used by the Royal Air Force; Beta Sig's version is the same version NASA uses.
Aw, socialite, is this our first fight?
