What an Amusing Caricature

John. NYC. 23. I've never been able to completely trust mirrors. It's logically valid to believe that one day your evil twin will take advantage of your trust in reality. As a precaution, I punch every mirror I see. For now, I am safe.

If you are now reading this, I sincerely commend you for getting through that paragraph of crazy. This blog is mainly comprised of things that peak my fancy: comics, lit, crafty things, news/societal commentary, future plans and using fancy in the manner I used 17 words ago (I counted).

It is no secret that some of the greatest writers were big drinkers. The question remains if their talent is enhanced or created by their drinking. Regardless, we have to give them credit for their amazing accomplishments—with or without the occasional cocktail…

 
1. Raymond Chandler
Drink of Choice: Gimlet
Death: Pneumonia & Suicide Attempt

2. Ernest Hemingway
Drink of choice: Mojito
Death: Suicide

3. William Faulkner
Drink of Choice: Mint Julep
Death: Alcohol-Related Heart Complication

4. F. Scott Fitzgerald
Drink of Choice: Gin Rickey
Death: Alcohol-Related Heart Attacks

5. Jack Kerouac
Drink of Choice: Margarita
Death: Alcohol-Related Hemorrhages

Even though every single word in this post is telling me not to, I now want to acquire a taste for Gin Rickeys.
