Need a toast?

I’ve never been one to memorize certain toasts, either nonchalantly with friends or for events. So I wanted to put together some good ones I remembered and found here… Enjoy:

“Here’s to a long life and a merry one, a quick death and an easy one, a pretty girl and an honest one, a cold beer – and another one!”

“Work like you don’t need the money; dance like no one is watching; sing like no one is listening; love like you’ve never been hurt; and live life every day as if it were your last.” (originally an old Irish proverb)

“May your troubles be less, And your blessing be more. And nothing but happiness, Come through your door.”

“May your soul be in heaven an hour before the devil knows you’re dead.”

“Here’s to women we love and here’s to the women we fuck. Hope they never meet.”

The original:
“She offered her honor, He honored her offer, So, all night long, May he be on her and off her”

and variation:
“Here’s to honor. To gettin’ honor. To keepin’ honor. And if I can’t cum in her, I’m cummin on her.”

“Cheers to you and cheers to me, the best of friends we’ll always be. But just in case we disagree, to Hell with you and cheers to me”

“Here’s to those who wish us well, all the rest can go to hell.”

“When we live, let us live in clover, for when we’re dead, we’re dead all over.”

“In heaven there is no beer that’s why we drink ours here.”

“May for better or worse be far better than worse.”

“To more friends and less need of them.”

“We’ll think of all the friends we know and drink to all worth drinking to.”

“Here’s to heat! Not the kind that ignites and burns down shanties, but the kind that excites and brings down panties.”

“It is better to spend money like there’s no tomorrow than to spend tonight like there’s no money!”

“My friends are the best friends Loyal, willing and able. Now let’s get to drinking! All glasses off the table!”

“Here’s to a long life and a merry one. A quick death and an easy one. A pretty girl and an honest one. A cold pint– and another one!”

“I have known many, and liked not a few, but loved only one and this toast is to you.”

“Here’s to you, here’s to me, together as friends we’ll always be. And if we ever disagree, Fuck you, here’s to me.”

‘Sláinte!’
(pronounced ‘slawn-cha’, meaning Health! A common toast in Ireland, the equivalent to ‘Cheers’)

Who’s day is it anyway?

So tomorrow is yet another “holiday” that my company doesn’t support. What’s the use of national holidays, those that are there to honor our leaders (religious or political), our freedom fighters, our country, or just a little recognition of fun. Monday is a holiday for most in the financial world, and as my world revolves around that, I’m sure I’ll have a slow day.

I took a moment to check out our holiday as my Porto Rico Importing Company calendar states it’s Washington’s Birthday Observed. Mean while all the commercials and it seems socially known as President’s/Presidents’/Presidents Day… Ever since 1968, federal law has decreed the third Monday in February to be Washington’s Birthday… for the purpose of creating a three day weekend for the working class of America.

According to “Prologue”, the magazine of the National Archives, it was a local department-store promotion that went national when retailers discovered that generic Presidents closed more revenue that a single popular one. I too have wondered if Fox news will pick up the fight here against the dissolve of holiday’s with a War on Washington’s Birthday story.

Washington’s birthday was actually either Feb. 11th, 1731 or Feb 22nd, 1732 – depending on the calendar used.

At any rate, I only bring this up because I’d like to properly celebrate the man for whom the day was created – one president, our founding father, rather than have to lump all presidents into a day of celebration, including those, IMHO, that don’t deserve to be recognized. I shall celebrate in my own way, despite having to still be in the office, per my employer. Salute and have a great three day weekend all.
