Nah... non alcoholic is perfectly okay. A nice, Minty tea, in fact, would be awesome.

*buys another hot Chai Latte . . . *sips*

I have often found myself, alone, in a Coffee Shop, somewhere in a foreign country. using my Netbook/laptop

and playing with the Linux OS, writing or surfing the web, for hours on end.

(sounds like a modern geeky Hemingway)

Okay. That's it. I want to be independently wealthy when I grow up.

Oh, independent wealth is not what allowed me to travel, and I have traveled a lot.
Most of my travel expenses were underwritten by my uncle, Uncle Sam that is.

It's surely an upgrade, and a good one too. Don't you think,Dawgdoc?
How about sending us some Kentucky bourbon. :)

Happy diving!

Cheers my friend :)

A Mint-Margarita . . . goes down smooth :cool:

*idea: When LinuxMint gets to wherever version it will be for the letter 'M' (13, I think) . . . it must be called: Margarita

LinuxMint-13 codenamed: Margarita ... (begins with 'M' ends with 'a') works for me. :lol:

Margarita sounds good to me also, but I'll be OK with whatever Clem picks. Perhaps he has a name in his "Little Black Book" that he wants to use. :) (Didn't we have a discussion like this a few years back?)

The MintRomance

What's in that little "black book"?
Does anyone dare to have a look?
With Julia being a lasting romance
Will Margarita have a scanty chance?

Ada would be his one and only love
She was as pretty as a cooing dove
He was so wrong me Minty friend
His lovin' spree would have no end

And here he is the jolly good fellow
He likes his girls so fresh and mellow
Ada was soon a craze to pass
To be replaced by another lass

To make the story short me friends
Here's how methinks it really ends
After the tenth romantic passion
He still is showing no compassion
