2. I don't know what the hell Zappa was thinking
They make his Fillmore album very annoying. :D

7. BULLSHIT! Best. Mothers. Ever.
Edited on Wed Sep-22-04 11:52 PM by DenverDem
Flo and Eddie were brilliant as the Turtles (still are, see them if you get a chance) and they were brilliant as Mothers of Invention. I love that period more than any other Mothers period. Zappa knew exactly what he was doing and including them in the band was another of his long line of strokes of genius.

Flo and Eddie live were incredible in the 70's.

11. Nope, you are officially not an elitist
You must spend at least $50.00 a bottle when drinking wine and be listening to either whatever they are playing on NPR or to the Gypsy Kings.

If not drinking wine you must be at least drinking top shelf vodka or gin, single batch scotch, single malt scotch or Johnny Walker Blue if you MUST drink a blend, or if you're in the mood for a cocktail, you are allowed a mojito, but only with fresh mint or an authentic Caipirinha that costs at least $12.00.

Sorry, those are the rules. }(

22. The Captain Morgan's gives you away
You are not an elitist. Elitists do not drink Captain Morgan's. Trust me on this one. ;-)

30. Not a low life
Just in touch with the working folks! ;-)

The more commonly found top shelf rums are Haitian, Jamaican or Barbados rums like Rhum Barbancourt, Appleton 12 yr or Mt Gay XO.

BTW, I am an elitist when it comes to booze. Only the best for my bloodstream. :-)
