Personal Notes:
“A man must defend his home, his wife, his children, and his martini.” Jackie Gleason

"I never go jogging, it makes me spill my martini." George Burns

"A perfect martini should be made by filling a glass with gin, then waving it in the general direction of Italy." Noel Coward

Like Noel Coward, the English Playwright, I like my martini's dry. Believe it or not, there are some times on a hot summer day when bourbon may not be the right, or best choice. I always ask the bartender for one the above drinks mostly a dry vodka martini with 3 or more olives. and yes, "Shaken not stirred."
