Those drinks are are the reason in my younger years I went to bed at 2 with a 10 and woke up at 10 with a 2.

One Friday evening I pulled into the Holiday in for a nip or two and to listen to the band. I wound up staying for a few hours and drank at least three Long Island Ice Teas. When I left the place I knew I had way too much to try to negotiate my truck back across the intersection to the Comfort Inn so I walked to the hotel, went to my room and hit the sack. Saturday morning I woke, looked out my forth floor window down at the parking lot and freaked out when I didn't see my truck. I jumped into my cloths and was half way down to the first floor when it dawned on me my truck was across the road at the Holiday Inn. Phew! Relief? Oh yeah. Hangover? HUGE!

Hahha funny Dan................Ive never been that much of a fan of LIIT.........always found the flavour of the liquors clashed to much to enjoy it..........hmmmmmm.....on that note I am gonna go make a G&T
