i was on a flight 2 weeks ago.
steward: what would you like to drink?
me: shiraz please.
steward: on the rock?
me: (since when do we drink wine on the rock?) oh well, why not?
steward: (hands me a glass of brown liquid which tasted more like whisky..and i thought to myself..this doesn't look anywhere like shiraz? i drank it anyway and it was good!)
when i got home i told dearie about it.
dearie: on the rock?? he must have heard CHIVAS..
me: oh ya.. it did taste alot like CHIVAS!
dearie: why must you say shiraz? you could have said red wine.
me: i thought shiraz sounded more class. =X (moreover, my neighbour on the opposite aisle asked for shiraz and got hers..and i clearly heard her say shiraz. oh well, so much for trying to be a copycat. my pronounciation must have sucked.)
