day!!!

In case you really get your freak on celebrating.

thank goodness.

Now I wish I'd taken a picture.

It was bubbly, I’ll give it that. No one would award it a ribbon in any conceivable competition 🤮

I’ll probably give the old reprobate a psilly salute soon after official word arrives and set & setting are right 🍄‍🟫

When I was deployed for desert storm, booze was banned from the based we operated from. Some guys started taking the liter water bottles and pouring out about 1/4 of the water, then putting in 5 or so of the dehydrated fruit packs from the MREs. (Meals Ready to Eat) Add in about 8 sugar packets, also from the MREs. Then crumble up a slice of bread for the yeast. Duct tape a surgical glove on in place of the lid. The glove would inflate from the fermentation process. When the glove went back down, take it off and filter out the fruit. Put the lid back on the bottle and wait a couple of weeks. Viola, fruit wine. Not a fine vintage, but wine none the less.

No disguise for that double vision, and being discovered drinking at sea could have resulted in time in the brig. Theoretically. Personally, I never heard of such a case, even second-hand stories.

Homemade prison wine. Never tried it, but I've heard stories. These are the same peeps that partake in Thunderbird.

That homemade still of Hawkeye's was pretty clever.

It is an exceptional value. Cheers 🥂

I think my wine merchant carries it. I LOVE their lavender wine!

As soon as we know the location…

in line. But I will be cheering everyone on!

I might buy a single bottle of the better stuff for the initial celebration, then hit the case of Prosecco. I wonder how many people will be able to make it beyond the liquor store parking lot on that glorious day before the corks start to pop?

Just walk up and down the street. I love that place!

first, the more expensive, desired stuff. For me, it's Moet and Chandon. A treat I rarely get to enjoy.

After that, I move on to my usual enjoyment... Pirtles Mead. I love it, and can go several bottles myself, when the mood strikes me. My dad used to call it my "soda pop wine" (lol).

If it happens in the cold of dawn, may I suggest Mimosas? Cherry Bomb Mimosas are a delightful change from the ordinary. Though a Blue Hawaiian Mimosa might be a bit of a dog whistle.

If you feel relief because his deportation policy will follow him into the great beyond, then perhaps a Strawberry Champagne Margarita?

If it's a nooner, then a Death in the Afternoon would be redundant. So, how about a Strawberry Champagne Fizz?

But dinner cocktail hour would require something bolder like Blackberry Champagne Mule.

Your suggestions are excellent, and I thank you.

Love the grave marker. It's an automatic middle finger anytime I see his face or hear his voice. Can't wait. Tequila will be my choice.

6.8% alcohol by volume. But it's so smooth that you don't know it until you try to stand up.

I have a few bottles of Andre Cold Duck set aside for Trump’s demise.

My family has a history with Cold Duck: when my dad was in the Bureau of Public Roads, the supervisor of the crew we were part of LOVED Cold Duck. Every year the crew’s Christmas gift from him, which he paid for with his own money, was a frozen Turkey and a bottle of Cold Duck. I don’t think anyone else liked the wine, but it was the thought that counts.

So…the most undrinkable sparkling wine there is sounds just perfect for the death of our commie dictator.

am guessing it has not improved any.

I've got a nice bottle of Jameson Black Label - just right for the day.

A peaceful glass, two rocks, and a stogie on the back porch. Rain, shine, snow, whatever.

On the patio. Then pepperoni pizza and ice cream for dessert!

old vinyl records, and have a P-A-R-T-Y.

If you have any MAGA neighbors, it's a good way to "own the MAGAts."

They've been trying to "own" us for years, so now it's our turn. I will not be quiet about how I feel about his demise. I want people to know that I was not a party to the destruction of our democracy. I do fear that if the GOP are in power still when he croaks, they will go all out for the funeral.

They are too obsessed with owning us they can't see that they are the ones being owned by a "man" and his sycophants who wouldn't pee on them if they were on fire.

champagne, inherited from a former neighbor, sits in the refrigerator. For my wife and current neighbor. I’ll have a couple ounces of a nice silky single malt and whichever beer I choose from the several we usually have on hand.

For the celebration!!

Apparently he’s not dead yet

...I'll order a 42-gallon barrel of finest French Champagne.

However, my husband will probably splurge on a nice bottle of something. Assuming that, I'll be happy to partake at least a little bit, too!

at my store. Wicked good!

Dark chocolate chunk raspberry ice cream! Just the thought is delicious!

and planning for the demise of the president? Never thought I would see the day and it took me a while before I admitted it, but when I did I realized I was far from alone. I think we all realize this won’t be over until he is literally “gone”. Cannot come soon enough. I pray I live to see the day as we are both about the same age.

the "r" presidents since Ike, but never with the disgust and loathing I have for this one! One of my professors told our class that, even though it seemed impossible at the time, there would eventually be someone worse than nixon. How horribly correct he was!

Russell Voght and Stephen Miller will still be alive, and I expect JDV to cooperate fully with them - and others.

I'm 41 years with no alcohol myself and really don't want to change that. So I'll have to come up with something celebratory that isn't alcoholic. But I will think of something.

will still be there. But the bright shiny orange cult leader will be gone.

I know i will be looking for my favorite non alcoholic prosecco, Nosecco Prosecco. Or a six pack of one of my favorite non alcoholic beers.

Damn German shop closed😀

Thanks but there are still a few places that have it. The German shop was on my regular route. I have more than enough for what will be the greatest party on the planet.😀

The offer stands as backup.

😀

Party the likes of which has never been seen.
And Fox will be wailing in horror and fear. And making room to rehire all the cabinet members that left to grift and end democracy, and lie.
Wine will flow here. But in moderation cause I wanna be able to party for days and savor it.

…actually, 10,532 days ago, but who’s counting.

However, on that very special and happy occasion, I’ll accept a shot if it’s offered.

I prefer to go whole hog and crack open the Laphroiag for maximim damage. 😏

still acceptable.

Hell, I'm in.

I don't know if they're getting impatient, but I am.

bottles on their sides so the corks of the bottles won't dry out. A trick I learned when making my homemade wine and then bottling it.

One to drink straight up in celebration. The other for cocktails that call for the bubbly.

The celebration will be reminiscent of the USSR’s celebration of the end of World War II, when fucking Russia ran out of fucking vodka!…

of goodies!

How are you doing tonight?

the bleeding seems to have stopped.

Thank you for your kindness.

With vanilla ice cream

Different, I know, but very good!

I had an empty bottle when I was in high school. My parents gave it to me. In art class, we were required to do a still life. I copied the Mateus Rose bottle along with a bowl of fruit.

A year later, I put a candle in the neck of the bottle and let the wax flow down the bottle. We also had another bottle and did the same thing. The bottles would come out when we had spaghetti. They eventually disappeared when we moved. Who thought they would discontinue the bottle? It was so beautiful.

Lots of bottles are for sale on ebay. They run for about $15.

which I decided to save in great anticipation of the Big Beautiful Day!

I will not be drinking.

But I will dance, and sing (Hosanna!), and there will be great rejoicing everywhere I go.

Hosana indeed!!! I am reminded of that number in "1776", which I watch around the Fourth each year.

To take its place among the other great American holidays like Independence Day, Veterans Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day... Big Beautiful Day, the day Emperor Taco assumes room temperature for the good of all mankind. Precise date to be announced.

Easy to store, and I keep a couple on the ready for the big beautiful day.
The way he is deteriorating the orange idiot is very close to his day.

Caffeine free Diet Pepsi and chocolate chip cookies and maybe chocolate chip ice cream

I don't want to miss the revelry, partying in the streets and celebratory gunfire.

Here's to the Day It Happens!
And for those of us who don't drink alcohol, may I recommend a chilled glass of Martinelli's?
https://www.martinellis.com/sparkling/
Available at most grocery stores, and at a tasty low price as well.

A most excellent reminder.

I was just texting my cousin about the bottle of bubbly that I’ve got chilling. I chose it because it’s a beautiful sparkling wine from one of my favorite NW wineries. It makes me happy to see her snuggled in my fridge just waiting to be popped and enjoyed when the inevitable good news hits the airwaves. All that said, you’re correct about the $7.99 bottle of Prosecco at Costco, niyad. It’s quite good. I believe it has a DOCG designation which is one of the things I look for in an Italian wind.

Let’s manifest this, people.

of excellent bubblies from which to choose. Your description of yours made me smile. iI was impresed to see that designation on the bottle.

I bought for when Harris won sitting in my wine cooler. Every time I look at it I get depressed she lost so I can't drink it. But if fuck face finally dies, yes that might the correct occasion.

occasion.
