I tried learning Japanese once. Yeah... I didn't get very far, besides being able to write my own name and utter a couple of sentences/phrases. I've since forgotten pretty much all of it.

I should start catching up on my Spanish once more. Around here, learning that language can potentially be useful.

Well, the reason I wanted to learn Japanese is actually kind of embarrassing. There was this girl that I really really had a crush on in middle/early high school. I used learning Japanese as a way to be able to talk to her. Ah... dumb young love. Lol.
As for Spanish, not very well. At my old job I had more of a reason to learn it. At my new job, not so much.

@FloofyNewfie I was thwarted in my attempt to mix vodka and "apple soda" as absolutely nowhere I looked sold apple flavoured sugar-water.

The might be more of a Mexican/American thing. Not sure? Around here, you can go to most local grocery stores and pick it up.
Eh, probably not. I'd have a lot of learning to do. Nowadays I don't have as much time. But back when I had a job that dealt with more Spanish speaking people, I had more of an incentive to learn it. But even then, it was primarily spoken. I can't write Spanish for crap.

All the more reason to familiarize yourself with the Spanish literature. Besides, Spanish orthography is simple. If you can speak it, you can write it.

Possibly. I considered mixing an apple cordial with plain soft drink but figured that would be cheating.

My Spanish spelling is crap. But, learning a new language is good for mental stimulation, and is good for warding off dementia in your elder years. So, there is definitely an incentive to learn it.
Oddly enough, I rather like apple juice and hard liquor. It's just apple soda that doesn't seem to mix very well with liquor.

I also considered juice but that was even further off target.
