So here's the funny thing about me and tequila. I used to hate it. I would have rather drink piss from a public urinal than tequila. But then I started going to Mexico a lot (cheap, airline miles, etc) and I had some really good margaritas and it masked the tequila. Then I started doing Tequila shots. I slowly got adjusted. It still isn't my favorite and probably ranks next to last, but I can actually drink it now, although it still tastes and smells like sawdust and pinesol.
