"I'm never going to bet on horse races because I can scarcely be trusted to pick the not-retarded shopping cart at Wal-Mart" -- Nathan J. Hamilton, Man, Scholar.
Last night I happened upon a half-gallon bottle of Sobieski, an imported Polish "premium vodka." Two things here: Have you ever noticed how every vodka is premium and ultra premium? That basically translates into "we tried to make this taste like rubbing alcohol, but hey! We paid P. Diddy to be in our commercials!" And: at the price of this particular vodka I was left to assume that "Sobieski" is Polish for "Tile Cleaner."
Surprisingly though, it mixed well, tasted well, and I don't have a hangover in the least bit (although my breath was brutal). There goes my preconceived notions that good vodka comes from Russia and that generic vodka comes from Poland (which is basically an generic country-version of Russia). Yes, I'm aware vodka was probably invented in Poland.
Awesome:
