Not really. Note that I'm posting from a panix.com account.

My guess is the Caol Ila 17, but a single-single Lagavulin would have been nice.

I remember being in the package store near Christmas one year. The lady ahead of
me in line told the clerk she wanted their best bottle of brandy for her
husbands boss's Christmas preasent. I thought they were going to have to call
the EMS for her when they range it up.

I like photography. I love faces.
I think it is more a matter of degree of the same emotion.

Dang. Where are you located? I'll take the Caol Ila and the Laphroig,
thank you. I can almost taste the briny sea air in the Caol Ila!
How 'bout Armagnacs, ever try those? Love them for a little relaxing
after dinner slow sipping drink.

Only God knows the answer to that one. Like, love, and lust are hard to

That's pretty much my opinion. The ME was a good, solid, aperture-priority
