I got a cookie for you. I didn't buy the DSO tickets yet though.

Thanks for the offer Billy, but the kids are asleep and the wifes still at work. I'm stuck with The Office rerun and the meaningless Steelers game.

Ok, tonight its minus the pretzels.
But hell, I've abstained from everything for the last 3 weeks, including coffee, while I cleared my head and crammed for my exam.
Tonight I deserve it...and it feels wonderful

I am not suggesting much experience but, cheese doodles go well with a scotch , now and again,

[elder]

I love cheese doodles. Especially the crunchy ones.
I do not believe we have any. The kid's Gold Fish crackers might be in danger though.

[tiedyesky]

maybe a clean glass

3 week cleanout, you should be amusing soon.

[elder]

3 week cleanout, you should be amusing soon.

Spell check is cleaning up most of my slurring.
2 on the rocks down, I might be soon too. I'm pretty wiped out.

Stress release can do that.

[little frog]

wow .. i think i love this thread

[elder]

... the Mrs. just saw me pouring #2 and asked "why".
do I need a reason?

[cjtpaint]

A wee scotch on the beach during the sunset, holding her hand as the sky colors drift to the blue hour. Of course the moon rise is upon us and, it is time to stroll back to the house. We meander as she points out I did not do the dishes from lunch and, I am smoking too damn much. I just said I like cigarettes, nothing here to see lets move on. She said , who is cooking tonight?
I said I would after I do the dishes. Then I fetched me a large scotch, a smoke and, went out on the deck.

[cdrhead]

moon rocks and tripel horse

[cjtpaint]

She came out on the deck after a bit and asked if I was going to cook? I was thinking, I am cooking Doll. I grew up with 8 aunts, mom, four sisters and have three daughters, I know what works. I suggested the terry cloth robe made her look a bit more full to the eye. She went back inside, I had another sip, a cigarette, and, looked at the moon.

No.

[elder]

It is Friday again, so don't give me a hard time.
Going so well with this Band of Joy concert on PBS too.
I'm really diggin' what Plant has been up to. Aging well... like scotch

[cjtpaint]

A wee taste I might be said to be having me self, after all,

[elder]

I knew you wouldn't leave me hanging Tom. I enjoy your company.

[cjtpaint]

I had the lads working on the house this week, I like to offer a snapper at the end of the day but, Friday I kick them out. They all say they are not scotch drinkers but, get through a fair amount. Pay day, out!

[elder]

I used to say I wasn't a scotch drinker. Then it started to dissappear. Now I embrace my Johnny
Black, like an old friend... who visits on Fridays

[Count P-Funk]

Did you catch Christopher Hitchens on 60 minutes a couple months ago? He referred to Johnny Black as "Mr. Walker's Amber Restorative". I will refuse to call it anything else from now on.

[elder]

No I did not. Funny though how I have a couple on the rocks at home and I'm toast. Catch me in Vegas in a couple of weeks and I'll throw back ten, twelve in a night.

Might even break out the Blue if someone starts winning big.

[TheDHJ]

Don't you have your Vegas trip coming?

[elder]

Don't you have your Vegas trip coming?

How funny! You posted that just as i was posting that.

[elder]

Yep, 4 weeks from today. Year number 19. Can't wait.
Any chance you gonna be there Josh?

I guess there's always a chance.

[elder]

4 weeks after this last post me and my buddy Johnny Walker Black got in a little fight in Vegas. Weren't on speaking terms until just recently.

I am happy to say that we're buds again

[capt_morgan]

johnny can be a bit of a dick sometimes...but he means well

[Smiles]

I don't think I've had scotch in my entire life. I've been drinking a whole lot of jameson this summer.

What's a good start with scotch?

[PieDoh]

open the bottle,pour two fingers in a very clean glass...sip , drink.....repeat...

[sarah b.]

((pals))

[elder]

Good night for both of them tonight. The scotch AND the pretzels.
Carbing up for the snow storm no doubt.

[TakeAStepBack]

Hi, elder. Vodka, seltzer and sorrow tonight for me. Some days my energy reserve taps. How do you deal with that?

Hey TASB. Good to see you over here by the way. I have been going to the other forums, mainly cause you stuck to your guns and all, but man I get tired sometimes of bouncing all over.

Anyway, what ever takes you there, right?

Low energy? I'm a pretty high energy person. My deal is usually calming myself down half the time, but when the body or mind is dragging I grab a cup of joe. Black and strong, like my women.

Don't let 'em give you any of that flank steak bullshit. You know what I mean? Try the London Broil.

[Karen]

Tonight is red wine sans pretzels for me.

Today was my last official day at my job of eleven years....
THey are keeping me 'connected' for another week on payroll in case there are questions about the work I have transitioned to a collegue.

Yeah, I know this is a rant but the thread title spoke to me

I figure the pretzels would slow down my wine numbness so I went 'sans pretzels'.
