@georgeob1,
Laughing with you on that (re advice). Neat post, neat whiskey?

I'd like a Laphroig, Wassau, about nine hours from now, water on the side.

Maybe I'm just a little grouchy today.

We all get grouchy from time to time. I've been grouchy lately myself. I hope you feel better soon.

Some of us are grouchy most of the time. Take spendi, for instance.

@Lola,
Spendi is a pleasant grouchy...
I tend to be a pleasant drunk...
Wassau I'll take a pinch worth of that whiskey.
How much can Wassau pinch?
I sold all of my BitCoins for gold dust.

@farmerman,
I was simply trying to be amusing fm but I do understand why you might not consider me to have succeeded in your own case.

I got into an argument once with the wife of a friend of mine who indulged her to the extent of allowing her to play at having a fashion shop. In the course of the argument I offered to loan her a paperback of The Theory of the Leisure Class. (It can now be read online.)

I had been trying to explain to her that frocks were sacks to cover up the dirty bits and that they were useful in the service of keeping husbands skint because husbands who are not skint attract rivals.

A month or two later I was a passenger in my pal's Mk 10 Jaguar and I chanced to ask him whether Veronica had finished my book. He looked a little sheepish and told me she had and that it was in the rear window of the car. When I came to get it I found it had been torn to shreds to the extent she was capable of tearing a book to shreds. By which I mean vertically often enough to allow her to tear it horizontally as well.

My friend informed me that she took this action due to something on page 3. So you can imagine the impress your strictures have on me.

@spendius,
I did think that it might be a good idea to carelessly place the fragments of the book in a glass case and submit it to Tate Modern for exhibition to the public. I might have done if I had thought that the Arts Council would understand it.

@ossobuco,
Mumbles to self, I've never tried tasting Pinch, at least that I remember. I'm a loon for single malt scotches, irish whisky, kentucky bourbon, none of which I can afford, so they increase in delight in my memory. And since my tasting of those is virtual, I tend to chose the scotches getting on in years.

@ossobuco,
I have simple tastes with regard to the shine.
Jasmin oft laments this of me.
She is something of a wine connoisseur.

I forgot about your YouTube troubles.

What a weary world in which such petulance is considered a oneupmanship gambit.

@spendius,
How weary when civility is mistaken for petulant bragging.

@ossobuco,
We visited a few wineries in Washington while spending a weekend in Seattle. I appreciated more the visual beauty of the country than the products, to be quite honest.

Me too Matt. I like New Zealand Savingnon Blanc because I have a preference for the taste of citrus. The soil in New Zealand is acidic, iron rich, or at least that's what I understand.
