Bombay Saphire commercial. Homage?
I juat saw a Bombay Saphire (some kind of alcohol) comercial on FX.
It was a bottle of Bombay in a fish tank, but the fish were oranges and the coral was made of sliced fruit. The layout of the tank was a direct take off of the MA, and the way the fish swam was really really reminiscent of Jim's fish movement in a simple kind of way. It was bizarre, and fun. Anyone seen it?

Bombay Sapphire is overrated, but that's just cool.
I'll switch back to Tanqueray next week.

Mmmm... Beer!
Sorry, Mmmm... Gin! (slurp) So what's the deal with this product? It says London Gin on the bottle, but in the blurb it's all about how it's a martini. I'm guessing that means a form of vermouth? I thought they were different things. If there's a cocktail expert out there, put me straight, please?
