Yesterdays good thing....Went and shot some pool with bro, nephew, and hubs. I had my first foofoo drink, it was cherry limeade with vodka. I couldn't taste the liquor which was good, but bad also, lol. Only drank a little over half of it through the tiny straw it came with, lol. Midway through it I asked for some ice water with lemon, but never got it. So, I just drank my nephews water, lol.
But, I can definitely see why a person would order another and another of those drinks, it was soooo good. Next time, I'll just order a dry cherry limeade, and drink all of it and order another and another and another :teehee:
Had fun shooting pool and eating some good food, mum was with us, but she didn't shot any pool.
And oh, everyone was shocked I had liquor, lol.

The Grand Vizier's Garden Party - Pink Floyd

That Pink Floyd Ummagumma album is my number 1 the worst album I have ever heard in my life. I loved Pink Floyd but this album was the worst. I wasted my money on that piece of garbage and my parents thought I was on drugs when I listened to it, that album ended up in the garbage never to be heard from again until now when you posted another song off that album, lol!

It's...interesting. (My mom always told me if you can't say something nice don't say anything at all, so interesting is the nicest word I can think of for that album :teehee: )

I suspect it is much better if you are actually high. It was an experiment, each member writing a song solo. Roger Waters himself later said it was a disaster.
