Does anybody ever read these things? Lets talk drinks.

Or more accurately, mine?

Anyways I'm feeling a nice combo of hyper and buzzed and I gotta say I like it. I think I'll ramble about what kind of drinks I like and maybe y'all can chime in with your favorites in the comments section.

Lets start with beers: I may be well on my way to becoming a bit of a beer snob, but I gotta say if the only beers your are drinking, (and you folks over the pond think Americans only drink) Bud and Miller, and Natty Light, or any beer that needs to run constant T.V. commercials, you're missing out on so many good brews out there. That's not to say all cheap beers are bad -i'll get to that later- but if you take your time to go to a good beer store, go to a beer tasting, or be brave and order the crazy local brew you may be surprised at what is out there. My general guide when ordering a beer that I've never heard of before is that I order the one with the worst sounding name on the menu. My rational is that if the name is awful sounding or in very bad taste, then the beer must be inversely awesome to compensate. So go try new and strange brews. You may find one you love, and you may find one that makes you gag.

Oh, and cheap beers... Right now I'm drinking a Miller Lite Lime and I really like it. Cheap, mass produced, and I like it! Oh, but I got rid of the "Lite" by spiking it with a lil bit of Everclear. :D Yeeeeah! You can't taste the difference, but whooo-BOY! As far as alcohol content, a Begin beer hasn't got shit on this one here. :D If you're looking for a good buzz of just one glass of beer, I highly recommend it.

And then there is Rum. Oh how I love me my rum! I'm a bit limited where I live as to the varity of rums I can buy, but I'm always trying new ones. I can always count of Capt Morgan's spiced or silver, or reserve, I like them all, but I Love Black Seal rum. It's a dark rum and just has a lot more flavor than Myer's Dark and is much smoother. Makes for amazing Dark 'n' Stormys.

Oh, but that brings us to mixed drinks and I could go on forever about those.... So what's your favorite drinks? Share them! Steal them from others! Drink and be merry!

David Hopkins "Forumite Book" sign-ups.

Hey all, I'm coordinating with Driprat

Driprat with the "jack" forum Forumite Book. His post can be seen here: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/...../#cid:11420573

I'm the one collecting all the character info and references, as well as the money for this. Don't worry, Dave gets all his money. I'm just doing the busy work for him.
______________________________________________________________________________

PAY ATTENTION! THIS STUFF IS IMPORTANT! Follow these steps and all will go great. Ignore them and you’ll likely fall through the cracks.

Step One: Send me (swiftfox2@yahoo.com), (not Dave) your character descriptions and/or reference picture(s). A character ref sheet is fantastic, but if you don’t have one of those any previous drawing of your character is also great. If your character hasn’t been draws yet please give a brief, but detailed rundown of your characters appearance. You can use the following template as a guide:

Name: (name of your character, obviously)
Species: (again, self explanatory, but if it's a made-up species or a combination of two, make that known. Does your character have unusual body additions, like wings, an extra head, etc.? Go into detail)
Sex: (given the strange nature of furrydom with its androgynous names and characters, don't assume the artist knows your character's sex)
Fur color: (again, don't assume the artist knows what's in your head. If you have a specific fur pattern in mind, like you want your cheeks one color, your arms another, your tail another... etc., let her know)
Clothes: (does he/she/shi/it wear anything at all?)
Personality and demeanor: What type of physical expressions is your character likely to be communicating?
Suggestions as to what you would be doing in the pic: Poses, simple actions, etc. Remember this is just a picture of your character, no background, setting, etc.

Step Two: PAY UP! Send your payment to me, (not Dave). Paypal is preferred. My Paypal address is: swiftfox2[at]yahoo.com I can also take personal checks and cash sent to me by mail. If you require this method of payment please email me and I will give you the mailing address.

Step Three: Once I have your character information and payment I will add you to the roster and send your information to Dave. At that point just keep an eye on the forum for when Dave posts the finished commissions.
If you have any question, just email me and I’m sure I can answer them. If they are regarding the commission itself I will run it past Dave and get back to you.

DO NOT CONTACT ME VIA PM*, INSTANT MESSAGE, COMMENT, ETC. ALL CORRESPONDENCE MUST BE THROUGH E-MAIL.

*Note: I reply to everyone who has sends me something regarding signing up for the Forumite Book. If you send me something and don't hear back from me within a couple days then something likely went awry with the email. Spam filters, black holes, etc. If that's the case PM me here, or if you see me on AIM (unlikely), shout at me there and we'll figure something out..

Well, one of us showed up in suit. That will change come April when a few more of us get either full or partials.
