Old fashion tipple

If you need to drink bourbon in the middle of the week, I strongly endorse the "Old Fashioned" route. Susan at JetSet hooks me up with a good one every so often.

One of these offers a touch of civility that my other perferred cocktail, the Manhattan, can suggest, but not match. The downside of this drink is the strange urges I get to start smoking cigars and referring to women as "broads" about halfway through it.
