Rum is tonic that clarifies the vision,
and sets things in true perspec

Fifteen men on the dead man’s chest–
…Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!
Drink and the devil had done for the rest–
…Yo-ho-ho, and a bottle of rum!”
Louis Stevenson

Drink Rum, Drink Rum

Drink Rum, by Gum with me,

I don’t give a damn

For any damn man,

That won’t take a drink with me.

May your ANCHOR be tight,

Your CORK be loose,

Your RUM be spiced,

And your COMPASS be true.

If I ever go missing, please put my photo on a Rum bottle, not a milk carton. I want my friends to know I am missing!

“All roads lead to rum.

The only way that I could figure they could improve upon Coca-Cola, one of life’s most delightful elixirs, which studies prove will heal the sick and occasionally raise the dead, is to put rum or bourbon in it.

DON’T die of love; in Heaven above

Or hell, they’ll not endure you;
Why look so glum when Doctor Rum
Is waiting for to cure you ?
-Oliver Herford.

“It was a maddening image and the only way to whip it was to hang on until dusk and banish the ghosts with rum.”

“Drinkin rum before 10.00am makes you a pirate, not an alcoholic” -Earl Dibbles JR
