I'm going out for a 45 minute walk and then take a shower, have a Left Hand ale and then go to bed. I'm not sure I want to look at the LTE or the "leader board" when I awaken. I could be in 3rd place and we may have our first couple of 3000 posters...

I am nearly speechless, err, postless... :oops: :roll:

It is a reference to "The Big Bang Theory." The girl keeps hearing the head geek say AFK. She asks what it means and when he tells her she responds "oh, I see." Head geek asks "what does that stand for?"

You really need to check out "The Big Bang Theory." I don't get a lot of the theoretical physics stuff, actually I don't get any of it, but there is plenty of other stuff to LMAO.
Now that you mention it, I've seen that episode. I do watch every new episode. It has just been so long since I've seen one(hazards of the summer) that I've put it out of mind.

I've wanted to be a scotch consumer, but every time I try it burns going down my throat. I've tried some real Irish whiskey, though can't remember the name of it, and McCallum's (sp?). Is there a milder, for lack of a better word, you recommend to set me on this path? I feel like I'm letting my Irish roots down.
Start with whisk(e)y over ice with a splash of water. As you grow accustomed to it, use less water.

I'd recommend starting with Irish Whiskey. It tends to be less harsh (they use less malted barley, meaning less smoke gets in the distillate) than Scotch. Some Irish Whiskeys tend to be fruity in fact. Red Breast Irish Whiskey is my favorite fruity (there's definitely a hint of peach in there) whiskey.

Macallan is a good starter Scotch. They age most of their whisky for part of the time in Sherry casks, reducing the harshness, they also don't use very peaty malt (there isn't much smoky flavor to it).
Cool, thanks! And, thank you to Wilson for your input as well.

I just skipped ahead 22 pages. I'm not going to look back at them.

Oh, the Yankees won 3-2 tonight, getting a walk-off home run from Nick Swisher. It was his second home run of the game! :ymparty: :ymparty: :ymparty: :ymparty: :ymparty: :ymparty: :ymparty: :ymparty: :ymparty: :ymparty: :ymparty: :ymparty: :ymparty:

The Yankees are now 90-50 for the season, and 39-13 since the All Star break. That's .750 baseball! Wow!

Although I did say that about 5 minutes ago.
