  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Why don't Lutherans cross themselves?

He loves his Anheuser-Busch products, but his poison of choice is bone-dry Beefeater martinis. :p


God love him! I prefer vodka to gin, but there are few things that I appreciate like a good martini; Grey Goose, preferably.:thumbsup:

I haven't tried Jagermeister, but I do love Berenjager. It's a honey liqueur, VERY sweet, and amazingly good in tea.

(the "jager" in each term is German for "hunter", btw. Jagermeister has a connection to Saint Hubert, patron saint of hunters (and the guy who you supposedly call on to cure rabies)

Oh, and I'm hoping to try this recipe for honey cordial when I run out of Barenjager. It sounds very yummy, and we have a five gallon jar of honey we need to finish up (bought it when we hoped to make mead one year, and then never got around to it)

If you haven't tried it yet, you really ought to have a Bombay Sapphire Martini, with Martini and Rossi extra dry Vermouth (even though it's just a dash, the Vermouth really does make a difference), and a couple of olives, of course. Bombay Sapphire is in a class by itself. It's the only Gin I would consider drinking straight, and in a Martini, it is absolutely fabulous!

Beefeater is way too good to ruin with Vermouth. :p

I used to order my Martini's, "hold the Vermouth". One bartender just gave me a soda glass with Bombay Sapphire, and a few olives. One of them was plenty! ...For that night, anyway! :D

Get yourself some Jaegermeister in a shot glass and pour Rumpleminz on top and you have a Screamin' Nazi.

I had one of those once. Probalby the best Martini I've ever had. Although the James Bond is a close runner up.
