I can do the tall part, but gave up on the smoking many years ago as it affected my enjoyment of good argmagnac too much!

No boat at the moment, but plans

As an admitted lightweight when it comes to alcohol consumption, I confess that I couldn't decide if it tasted more like lighter fluid or paint thinner . . . perhaps rat poison. Clearly, his gesture was wasted on me.

PS: To the OP - How tall is tall? Oh, BTW, I can appreciate your cleverly posed avatar.

Like Patron I would assume. The first shot is like a light lighter fluid. The second is like cool water on a hot day. The third? Well, I usually forget by then, or don't care......i2f

Hey, I feel the same way about Pinga or Tequila!! After the third, are they smooth!

But let's not detract from the serious issue here! I am amazed we have a lovely sailing lady and no partner! Must be doing too much blue water?
