Rummy:
Since you are the sultan of swill, can you make any recommendations 
regarding placement and functionality of drink holders? I'm sick and tired 
of spilling half consumed beverages during big heeled days. Maybe I 
shouldn't heel over so much, or maybe I should drink faster? I've even I've 
thought about a syphon system into the lazerette so's not to waste that 
good Flor de Cana... Inquiring minds want to know....fast.... as I'll be 
giving Menagerie a four or five day workout next week.....
