[What would you do with Reinhart?]

Keep him with the Sabres no matter what? Juniors no matter what?

 

Personally, I'd like to see him with the Sabres only if it is CLEAR he is ready now, and a top six guy right now.

Completely agree. We do not need another Grigs situation. I wish he were able to play in Roch. I don't think his game could grow much playing in the minors.

Larsson, and Flynn = Luke Adam. Great AHL guys, that should not be on the big squad.

[Good whisky/whiskey]

Okay, so this came up in the Complaint Thursdays thread this week and since a lot of you seem to know your alcohol, figured I'd ask this here. I'm primarily a vodka drinker; I enjoy the clean taste and versatility in mixing, but I'm a little bored with it. I also enjoy light rum in a mojito during warmer weather, but I'd like to try whiskey or scotch. So what I'm hoping you guys might be able to help me with is: just how does one begin drinking whiskey or scotch? I'd eventually like to get to the point of being able to enjoy some of the good stuff neat or on the rocks, but I'm guessing I'll need to work up to that point since I don't drink it now. Two main questions come to mind:

 

1) What are some good "starter" liquors, i.e. something good enough I'll have a chance at liking, but not so good that I'll hate myself if I buy a bottle and don't end up liking it, and

 

2) Is it best to start with a mixer, or jump right in with the undiluted stuff?

 

Any suggestions would be much appreciated -- thanks in advance for the help!

 

Yellow Spot Irish whiskey. They are just beginning to allow imports into the States. Smoothest whiskey I have ever had, a sin to dilute with anything other than a splash of water, or an ice cube.
