Sometimes it's better to light a flamethrower than curse the darkness

Today was incredibly dull -- I wrote some essay, went to work, Zoomed into the first Democrats Abroad UK thing I've ever heard of happening outside London (they do have groupsiin other places -- apparently there's a Scottish one -- but I just kept getting emails for things in London and I was fed up so wanted to encourage this northwest group), walked the dog.

It was good, but I got nothing to talk about so let's have today's question.

27. Do you have a favorite mixed drink or cocktail?
I like a lot of cocktails. But the first that comes to mind is an old fashioned. I love a rum old fashioned too.
