In a 16 oz glass place a full tray of ice cubes (12), squeeze in 1/4
lime wedge, pour in 4 oz dark Belize rum, fill to the brim with
Coke... after three you won't give a gibnut's ass about a little
stinkin' wind. I'm on my 2nd now, a treat after planting my two trees
(damned rocky ground). I pounded in the fence posts but the wire
fencing will have to wait for tomorrow, ran out of steam. Will finish
the 2nd drink later, time to hit the shower.
