    Didn't know it comes in on Thursdays, thank you for that! I was always amazed going to Wal-mart and they were out of MILK! Crazy. That stuff in the box is not milk.

    Soriana sometimes has fresh milk in half gallon sizes. Sometimes.

    Back when I lived in dairy country I got fresh milk delivered straight from the farm...

    Could you please enlighten me on what is a hurricane? I take it, it's a cocktail but what exactly is it, does it have a taste to match the name?

    Thanks T.J, you mean in laymans terms, a mexican/american gallon as opposed to a british one?

    I meant that there is a distinction between a gallon of gas or milk in the US and that of the Imperial gallon, which I think is used in many other countries. There is no such thing as a Mexican gallon as the metric system is used, so we have liters, etc.

    Oh, the famous Pat O'Brien's Hurricane. Trina has had her ass kicked by them in my presence recently. And she was not the only one.

    It is 4 oz. of dark Rum and 4 oz. of Pat O'Brien's Hurricane Mix. The mix is something from passion fruit as I remember its ingredients from my trips to Mardi Gras. They have another drink in their New Orleans location, maybe a cyclone or something like that, with a different kind of fruity mix, served in a smaller glass, that is more golden in color. The Hurricane is red, like the color of fruit punch.

    I am sure I will be drinking ONE tomorrow night. I am coming straight to P.O.'s from the airport.
