Ha. Have you played around with making Manhattans? With small alternations here and there, you can still get what's more or less the same drink, but friendlier to your particular palate. e.g. chilled glasses (I just leave 2 old fashioned glasses in the freezer when not in use), small ice chunks (finally, that ice pick gets some use!), a combination of sweet and dry vermouth (amount of each up to you; i go ~0.5oz sweet, ~0.5oz dry, and ~1.25oz rye), and both angostura and orange bitters (sparingly).
