99 Bottles
There will be enough Scotch Bourbon, and apparently Rye, whisk(y, ie, e, whatever) at Flatwater 09, and I intend to again bring red wine. In years past Terry Boyer brought along region-specific wine as well and we seemed to have plenty.
I'll plan on making it 6 bottles this year unless someone else desires and brings along a bottle of two of their own favorite! Bogle Old Vine Zinfandel and Petite Sirah.

I'll bring some well aged, fine, 2-buck Chuck (it's actually $3 now)--real corks and all!!

Canadian wine has come a long way since the Baby Duck and Gimli Goose winery closed down 30 years ago in Manitoba. No vineyards here, trucked in in semi tankers. We called one plonk and the other plonque as it was less ghastly
I'll bring a bottle of the best Canadian red I can find and I think those wine lovers anong us will enjoy it.

Nah, they just ask if you have any cigarettes, they seem more concerned with those than anything else. I just say 2 bottles of wine and a 40oz of Absoulute vodka. I hardly look like I'm bringing in Commie stuff, not that there is much around here since I have finished off the bottle of Cuban rum she brought back, really good stuff.
I hear your Prez will let you Yanks into Cuba, God forbid! Hotel space is barely enough right now for us Russian, Canadian, and former Soviet bloc folks, there is not room for you guys, so please leave us one holiday place to go which is USA tourist free!!!!!! Please!!!!!!

WS, if you next say you find Wild Turkey Rye superior to Jim Beam Rye, may ice cubes find their way into your Speedo. While you're wearing it.
Mike, I don't think I've yet brought a bottle of Belvedere to Flatwater, but a friend just gave me a bottle of Komandirskaya (and a bottle of Absolut, as they spell it on the version exported to central North America) that I can bring for you to try if interested.

Enjoying vacationing in a location that has seen no basic improvement or cultural evolution since 1957 explains why you like coming to Nebraska for the Flatwater.mbonner wrote:...I hear your Prez will let you Yanks into Cuba, God forbid!

I wouldn't know a Jim Beam from a glu lam. I know I like a good cab or merlot, and a pint a' bitter. Beyond that, I'll leave the serious taste testing to others.

Kirk, well, yes, it's Absolut here as well, I mis-spelled it. That is the most commonly found vodka up here along with Smirnoff
We can get a Polish kind made from potatoes, it's one of the smoothest vodkas I ever tried. It's called Luksusowa. Can you buy that in the US?Maybe I'll bring a bottle of that for our vodka lovers. Where does Komandirskaya come from?
I've not seen that. 2 weeks to go!
