I don't think it's nice to call boxed wine "the crappiest" on a board where Ty posts frequently.

Re: Lamest k race win ever

the PB new thread started right after this FB thread started- the PB had the sense to let me name the thread- it now has more than twice the posts of this thread.

maybe i should be given the reins to name threads on both borads until further notice?

Muggs failed to mention that today, his "winter" weather is sunny and about 64F. Then again, it's probably a little cooler in the office/cage he's in.

First, you need to share some recipes with the board.

Then, you have to have lunch with Adder and have him call you "hot".

Then you get the scotch.

I have never dined with, nor otherwise met, Fugee. And for that reason only, never called her hot.

Damn, you're right, mixing posters.

Still, she cooks. And I'm sure she's hot.

I may have reason to be in NYC tomorrow evening and Thursday, and note Penske is there. It is still tentative, but are there summit possibilities?

I believe she has denied that several (if not many) times. But I just assumed it was an effort to keep Penske out of Minnesota.

A man who posts about how he is superior to other drinkers of single malt scotch and how he consequently is going to get laid with a 95% probablility should be careful about bandying the word "douchbag" about.

Maybe Attiucs is John Fitzgerald Page?

If so, he's probably at the gym.

2. also, any man who uses the word "bandying" is tacking towards the Isle of Douche!

A post that is about single malt scotch is not always necessarily talking about single malt scotch. It is sometimes not talking about single malt scotch. If a post in which I say that I do not talk about single malt scotch ever and therefore I am superior to other single malt scotch drinkers means I am a douche, well, the single malt scotch drinkers who talk about single malt scotch, as I do not, are even douchier.

The words "single malt" shall never again pass these lips, except perhaps to say "this delicious blended scotch was made by expertly combining the flavors of a number of single malt scotches," although I cannot imagine it ever being necessary to say this, as it is probably somewhere on the bottle.

Let us never speak of this again.

BTW, AON, last night was a 5% night, but that was partly because we thought one of the kids had thrown up in bed, when in fact a different kid had. Long story; not worth it. Let us never speak of this again.

Not a prole choice. An odd choice. At the $40 price point, Glenfiddich kicks its ass.

NO, NO, NO.

YOU drink some scotch. Maybe give HER some scotch. NOT the kids. At most, just have them rub some on their gums to help them sleep.

No wonder you can't get laid.
