Dear Liquor Brands

Hey, your Flash websites are really pretty, but I don't have all damn day to wait for them to load. Let's say I just want a recipe to use with your fine product, or to know if you're the company that makes the orange flavor- why do I need to wait a minute for every stupid page to load and the background soundtrack to play before I can even click on the link? I don't need your interactive bartender or your floating mint leaf cursor. I have DSL, and all the crap you load the page with makes it as fast as a 26K dialup. Some people may want to use your website to gain information, and don't need an "immersive lifestyle experience." At least give us a "slow connection" option. And while I'm at it, if the age verification gateway has a "remember me" button, I expect it to remember me. Okay? Thanks. -Camper

A Somerset:

Your favorite Martini with a few drops of Pernod. Based on a line from a short story by Somerset Maugham who could have out-drunk us all if we lived on the French Rivera in his day.
