    Congrats Julio, I can imagine you aren't going to be around much today :) At least I know I wouldn't be.

    Thanks a lot guys, you have no idea how proud I am of being editor in chief of this great website and how glad I am of receiving your best wishes... as you can see I wasn't around much today but I did have a great day, had lunch with my family and some friends and now I'm waiting for the rest of people to arrive here... in the meantime I wanted to get back to you as well ;)

    Drinking will be delayed until the weekend though, you are invited... since I'm a vodka guy I will go for those Grey Goose bottles that are not easy to find here.

    Thanks again!

    Grey Goose is the best vodka I've ever had. Good choice mate.

    HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY JULIO!! DRINK TILL YA PUKE!!

    Your site is great by the way. You should be real proud it's got so big. :)

    Do you really have to be 21 before you can drink at a bar in America? I thought 18 was strict over here......but at least you drive at like 14 in texas lol.

    Yep, the legal drinking age is 21 in the United States. I do believe it is the highest in the world? :dead:

    Happy birthday, Julio!!! Just a tad bit late. ;)

    Congrats Julio!

    Now don't spend all your birthday cash on beer! Remember, there's a thing called beer nuts too ;)

    Thank you all :), your words are most welcome!

    Well, what am I doing on my birthday? Spent sometime with the gf a few hours ago, now working on a new article hopefully to be posted tonight, then tomorrow I have a final for the only class I'm taking during the summer. After the exam (~9pm), I plan to get together with a few friends and family, nothing too big.

    Then on friday, party time... won't be drinking much until then since that will be counting as double (drink double, too?) because on monday I'm leaving to the states for a few months again to continue my studies.

    Happy birthday Julio! Sounds like a decent way to spend your birthday. It doesn't sound fun having a final around your birthday! :blackeye:

    Apart from all that Grey Goose Vodka, keep some space for a pint of the Real Black Stuff from Uncle Arthur (Guinness that is).
    Many happy returns!

    PS: what about Absolut and Stolichnaya, not to mention the mother of them all: Polish Starka!
