Throat hurts. :P Expecting first real work for the past month to show up today, so going in anyway. Bleah.

I suppose a shot of Stolie's in your morning tomato juice is right out of the question? For medicinal purposes only of course... ;-)

CYa!

Not being familiar with Stolie's, I couldn't say for sure, but I'd be more prone to use Bailey's instead. ;) A bottled Frappuccino, put into a mug and microwaved for 1:45, was quite soothing, but it's going to take more than that to fix the problem.

Oh, so that's where you've been off to?

Well, get better quick. *Hands you a bowl of steaming-hot chicken soup.* I missed you yesterday.

I am fairly confident that friend Mako was referring to Stolichniya vodka. The Russians use this for their winters, as glycol antifreezes are relatively unpalatable.

Hope you feel better quickly!

Precisely LH :)

Vodka of course being the old fashioned Russian cure-all and good for what ails you even if your not sick all purpose remedy. It starts with tablespoon in crying Baby's Bottle and goes on from there :)

I worked with a group of (*brilliant*) Russian programmers at my last gig, they were some very cool guys, and man the stories they would tell... :)

CYa!

"Try to remember
The time in September
When my comrades
Came back from Russia

If you remember
(And I can't remember)
The brand they brought
Of Russian Vodka

But you'll remember
Just as I remember
The party when
Our friends got mellow
If they remember
I'm glad, cause they sure were drunk
Fellows..."

Heh... Stoli indeed. I just had about four shots worth last night whilst I cozied with a good book before bed. Swiged the last bit a little fast, though, and I felt it right away. Wooooo.

The thing about liquor before bed, though, is that it makes you sleep well, but mano! does your mouth taste dirty in the morn!

Ickies!

Hehe.

And it's good to see our Dragon hath returned. :)
