One of my clients is a TV personality and wanted me on camera. I quickly shot that idea down and referred her to our CEO. For what I do, my down home folksy act comes off as quirky and charming. As the spokesman for a high profile business? Not so much. The company doesn't know what a bullet they just dodged.
Trump gave out Lindsey Graham's private cell number on live tv (LG's camp confirmed it was the correct number, but that he will be having to change it). Classy. This trump side-show is insanely entertaining, in the same way that reading ToyToy stories in the WDT is entertaining... It's not reality, right?
Didn't just hand it out... it was on a post-it note from years before where LG had asked Trump to introduce him to Fox News and he was just going to call him back... and Trump kept that number, dug up that years-old post-it note, took that post-it note to his press conference, and then read the number out... twice. Can you even begin to imagine that fucktard as Commander In Chief?
That, and there are MANY stupid people. George Carlin said "Think of how stupid the average person is, and THEN think about how half of the people in the world are stupider than them!" Trump can only stay in this race by upping the ante on the retarded things he says and does. No, he's not smart. He's also impulsive, born into the Lucky Sperm Lotto and completely full of shit. He just blathers into a microphone and the same people who watch Ghost Hunters and Ancient Aliens a-hyuk along with him.
If there's one opinion I universally trust in this board, it is alcohol. Question for the experts: What are best cider beers readily available? My best friend's 40th birthday is next week, we're having a huge bash and he called me to say he's "been on a huge cider beer kick, love that stuff" and he says his preferred brand "doesn't matter". I know nothing on the stuff but want to buy him a good one, what would you guys recommend?
Actually, another alcohol question; I'm taking some time away from carbs and was wondering if there's a relatively commonly available alcoholic drink I can drink at friends' parties that isn't full of sugar?
Dry wines, the drier the better, obviously. Or straight booze of pretty much any variety. The mixers are the part that will fill you with sugar. Go for martinis. I was partial to gin, but if you want the easy way out, vodka will work.
Waupoos is an Ontario made cider (and a very scenic orchard, at that) which is pretty darn good. Give it a try.
JK Scrumpy is the king of ciders. Tastes like a slightly sour apple juice. Super fresh. Not as cloyingly sweet as others. Good chance you can find it in your area since they're out of Michigan. If you can find it, Clos De Duc from Normandy. Very wine like, slightly dry, comes in a fancy bottle with a cork for like 7 bucks. If you know a place with a selection, look for some French or English labels. There's a big apple culture in northern France and parts of England. There are more to ciders than Strongbow and Woodchuck. In fact, I can't stand either.
