Food & Drink - 2 October 2006

I bought this steak yesterday from a butcher and stuck it in the freezer, however it didnt't seem to freeze properly...I took it out and put it in really hot water for about 30 mins to defrost it, and now it smells slightly funny and there are parts that are a bit darker gray/brown...does this mean it is bad? I thought that the smell and colour change might have come from teh fact that it was in very hot water for a long time even though it was not that frozen...i also defrosted another beef steak that i bought from a different store which was totally frozen, it doesnt have the same smell but did change colour to a lesser extent...could this be because it was much more frozen over in the freezer and wasn't as affected by the hot water? should i cook the other steak and try it or not?

I was wondering where you all save the most money when buying bulk food and drinks. I'm hosting a tailgating party this Saturday, and I'm debating whether I should shop at a grocery store, Target, or Wal-mart. What do you all think?

What do you call that stuff that you drink when you get thirsty? I think it's a liquid, but I don't remember what it is called.

Give details, what would you have/order? Would stay home, or go out to eat? What beverage would you have? Candlelit or not, music?

I quit drinking years ago, but I'm curious lately what the different forms of alcohol are derived from.
I know that
Wine comes from grapes
Beer is from barley
Vodka is from potatoes
Rum is from sugarcane

However, I've been curious about the others such as whiskey, burbon, scotch, brandy, martini as well as others you can think of that I may have missed.
The most informative answer will recieve my vote.
