Johnny Walker Blue

On Saturday evening, I had a bunch of friends over for movie night. I rarely watch movies at home. In fact, I finally hooked up the DVD player I bought about 6 months ago. After watching the movie, I pulled out bottles of Johnny Walker: red, black, green, gold, blue. I never drink this stuff. We distributed mini cups and had a blind taste test of all 5 labels. After the first round, I got all of them wrong. The second round, I got one right: blue. Green was the most jolting of all the labels, but blue was pretty smooth.

A friend from out of town dropped by and we had a little bit of red left over. As a joke, I poured him the red but told him it was blue. His reaction, "Ahhhhhhhh, gotta luv the blue!" I know it was a terrible joke to play on him, but he's a good sport.

The next day, I felt like someone kicked me in the stomach and the head. Johnny blue may be smooth, but it sure kicks you where it hurts.
