I would think that a prominent partner in a major legal firm would find that to be a business expense as Christmas gifts to friends and clients.

Perhaps if you find it palatable, you could have your local store order a case or two for the firm?

LMAO -- I wish!

Now, if I was buying them as gifts for clients, it would be a deductible business expense. But I'm not! :D

If I send you a dollar for a retainer, will you send me a bottle for Christmas? :D

LOL - no, but come to LA and the drinks are on me. :)

If I ever make it out there, I'm taking you up on that. And to meet Catwoman...when I was little, I wanted to grow up to be Catwoman.

I'm drinking my eggnog with Kahlua. It needs something to give it a bite. Any suggestions out there besides vodka? We're out of vodka.

Well, what do you have? :munchin

Red wine, single malt scotch, guinness, Baileys, and some "fine aged" Appleton Estate Jamaican Rum.

Point of Order
 

Guinness is always capitalized, like the gem it 'tis.

I'd try to get to the store, as the wine and beer are unsuitable; the Bailey's will not add more bite than the Kahlua (although it may be tasty); and the scotch and rum really shouldn't be wasted in a mixed drink.

If you need to do this now, I'd use the rum. Good luck. ;) :)

Buy two cases for clients, distribute one case early, and dispose of the leftovers by drinking.

And me an English Major with a rather large drop of Irish in my blood.

My apologies, Sir. It won't happen again.


RL -- Going to the store is not an option: we're out in the boonies and we've been drinking. We've decided to forgoe the eggnog: the Mr. has the Scotch and I've taken the rum. :D

You could use it as a chaser . . . :munchin

OK, I'm going home to watch my USC Trojans beat the living snot out of Notre Dame. Hmm, maybe I'll open a bottle of Jameson? LOL

Jameson Irish Whiskey
 

Did I spell it right? Over my shoulder looms 700 ml of Midelton's, now that's an Irish whiskey.

Probably not. I haven't tried it standalone yet .... too good mixed. :D
