From a New York Times piece on the Presidential Inauguration:

"The most surprising Lone Star delicacy, at least to some locals watching in dismay, was a new drink ordered by a group of Texans: merlot with 7-Up. It was described as a Texas version of sangria. As a teetotaler, Mr. Bush may be glad that is one bit of Texicana he won’t have waiting for him back home."

For the first time ever, I’m siding with Georgeie. I’m glad concoction isn’t waiting at home for me either…but certainly not because I’m a teetotaler.

Makes me proud to be living in a blue state…that’s for sure.
