And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
The usual HUGE glasses that either a) make a standard drink look lost; b) dilute a standard drink with too much ice; or c) encourage the user to have 3-4 standard pours at one go (a standard pour is 1.25-1.5 oz). The right size for a lowball glass is 5 oz at most. That allows for a standard or double pour and sufficient ice. We've tried these bigger glasses; they feel clunky in the hand and make a standard pour or mixed drink look idiotic. Not recommended.

ReplyDeleteMe thinks CW is trying to get us drunk.
DeleteI can live with that.
Drinking from the corner, awkward. drinking from the side, dribble at side of the mouth, dumb design. Straight from the bottle, no problems.
ReplyDeleteUse a plastic straw
DeleteAfter a few drinks my round one looks like that.
