i found a spiffy flask at the thrift store this morning... Thought i'd take a pole to see what would be the best thing to put in it for sharing at war.

    I have 2 flask and 3 ceramic canteen jugs. One always has tullamor dew. The others will have what ever else I decide to bring. One year it was homemade pepper vodka. It is funny how you can sip something and people ask what you have in the jug. Tell them vodka and watch them take a large mouthfull. The funny part is when someone else sees it and thinks it cant be that bad and takes a large swig.

    Just as stated by Douglas Adams,
    "Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so. "

    I have two regular flasks; One for whatever dirty scotch I'm drinking, and the other for a milder scotch that other people will like. (nothing worse than people making a face after slugging a scotch you like)

    I also have two wooden boxes, one with two small glasses, and the other with five small glass flasks. I'll fill these with scotches that are too good to drink out of a flask, since good scotch should be nosed. Sometimes I'll fill them with something else, like a series of Tokays.

    Sometimes I carry a metal flask of absinthe.


    Question #2: How do you carry your flask?

    I have one with a leather loop that I put around my wrist so it doesn't hit the ground, one that has a leather belt pouch tailored to fit it, and a box with belt loops to hold the set of small delicate glass flasks. The metal flask I just toss in a pouch or in my boot.
