"May you live as long as you want, and never want as long as you live."

Does anyone else know any nice toasts?

I suppose I should start with "Slainte Mhath!" ("Good Health!")

I'm actually rather partial to one my father used: "Din skol, min skol, alla backa flicka skol"

I'm told that this is Swedish for, "Here's to you, here's to me, here's to all the pretty girls"

A toast:
"Lets have champagne for our real friends and real pain for our sham friends!"

Here's one some drunken college girls used to say (not me, I was a good girl)

Here's to the men who we love who don't love us
Here's to the men who love us who we don't love
Here's to the men who we love who love us
Here's to the men who we don't love, who don't love us
We f*** them, they f*** us.

Yes, we know the whisky burns going down, but who said it?

Ach, there's naught like a wee bit o' Robbie.

This was part of a particularly infuriating puzzle in the PC game "Return to Zork." How sad is it that I thought you were quoting the game up until the fifth line?

If you're serving haggis, there better be a LOT of whiskey.
