I Am Alive

For those of you wondering, I haven’t disappeared, I’m merely at a family get-together in Hawaii. I know, I know: One Percenter!

My father-in-law has discovered that is far more likely he will see his grandchildren if he rents a place in Hawaii. Shockingly, it works.

Anyway, it’s a working vacation for me. I’ll be filing my column (for the most part) and I’m going to do some sleuthing for a possible volcano lancing piece and some other stuff. I tried to convince Rich we needed a cover story on the disturbing use of sub par liquors in tropical drinks, but to no avail.

Jonah: Sub-par liquor in tropical drinks can be tolerated if you are on the beach in Hawaii. So suck it up and just relax.

I will happily be your zombie guy (How many sips does it take to kill a zombie? Let's find out!). And your hurricane guy. And your pina colada, margarita, anything served in a coconut, guy. Because the science on these things in never settled.

Tropical drinks is exactly the place to use sub-par liquor.
That way the high quality liquor remains for drinking neat, or on the rocks, when you can actually taste, and appreciate, the difference.
