I picked up a small (6 inch) flashlight (with batteries) at the thrift store.  Now I don't have to worry about uneven terrain in the dark.

Bowmore is usually a bit too smokey for me. This Glenmorangie and 18 yo Highland Park are my favourites. Strong, but more fruitiness than smokiness.

Surf is less smokey than, say, Enigma, but has that nice Bowmore flavour that I seem to prefer these days. I'm not that fond of Glenmorangie but I agree Highland Park is fab.

Only foreign alchohol delights I've tried is german beer. I've mainly stuck to bourbons over the years.

Try English ales and be :viking:

London Pride is fab.

Because my day was otherwise accounted for, I decided not to cook dinner.  We had pizza, delivered.  And I even paid the delivery fee quite happily.

did you tip the hard working delivery person?

The bill included a $2.99 delivery fee and I gave him a $2 tip.  Fair enough I figured.

yeah.  Fair enough.  It really gets my goat that the pizza store charges a delivery fee which I suspect all of it goes to the store.  Also, I bet the delivery guy also has to pay for their own gas.

Up with people.  I support labor.
Misunderstood.

Was brave and bought a bra. Why do they all have to be padded lately?
The one that fitted best was padded the most. Who needs a padding in a D cup bra?  :dunno:
