Can't wait to see what the UPS fairy brings next! By the way, does your UPS driver know about your new character? Probably best that he does not if you like your bottles intact. Nice new character!

May have to steal, err...borrow, that or something similar. Also, the drawing is awesome. Props to Dr. Bamboo. On another note do people still give props? Really great idea Doug!

I'd also slam a promotional product that is promoted to me via unsavory methods. So don't send me a gin and claim it'll cure my baldness, unless it will. (If you have a gin that WILL cure my baldness, send that bottle NOW) But if I feel it is something that just isn't to my <em>personal</em> taste (i.e. a Gin with some aromatic I can't stand), I'd likely just not write anything about it at all. I'm pretty much following Mom 'n 'em's old rule about when you don't have anything nice to say.... Part of my point here is to disclose that practice however. You <em>will</em> see the Liquor Fairy on posts that are not raves, but you probably <em>won't</em> see him listing a product that I just plain don't like. Now, if I BUY a bottle and think it stinks, then I'll feel free to bash it (noting still that my aversion is my personal taste), since there would be skin off my nose—the money I spent for the bottle.
