Pearl Persephone Vodka
Eventho "pomegranate" has been covered here recently, and eventho "flavored vodkas" seems pretty beat, the combo of pom + vodka = ka-pow! Becuz 1. it’s enterprising of Pearl to jump so quickly on a new trend in cocktails. And 2. pom as a bar ingredient is a full-circle thing since pom used 2B the secret ingredient in grenadine. And 3. the name Persephone Vodka draws on the Greek myth about the daughter of Ceres, goddess of the harvest, whose consumption of pom seeds gave us seasons and that's cool when a contemp product evokes the classics. FYI, this just in from AC Nielsen: In 2005, pom juice sales increased 800 % since 04.

Pearl makes vodka. that's so obvious.
(knesa... rhymes with teresa - yay. it's going to be a good word-verification day, i can feel it in my bones)
talk about bandwagons! oh well, if we all must be sheep....bbaaaa!
i did like the link to the Big Mac story.
(cbsgizx - cbs used to be my intials prenuptually!)
(clairevoyant should own up to the fact that she's a sucker for any Mickey D's reference cuz she worked there in her formative years.)
(nklnket - kinda like a blanket)
"prenuptually" - wow. that's some wordage
soof:
you caught me! (you deserve a break today, la la la la la la....)
tg:
is this vodka available anywhere?
clairevoyant, Pearl's publicist (who is excellent in terms of quick response time) sez that the drinkie is available nationally at "most grocery stores and liquor stores"
Sscuvkg, is both my word for today and very likely the vodka of Slovenia, or a '...stan' country.
(And that's a great pic!)
Apparently, TG, Pearl's publicist has never been to Texas ... or the Dallas area, at least. Vodka available in grocery stores? You can't even buy good sherries in grocery stores.
Hey, dean, good to see you back. Where've you been?
Twisted, if you thought Pearl was beer, why did you ask hwat it was?
How about this: my verification word is "mbxtp". (Just like my inintials.)
