Not Tu Quoque? - appeal to hypocrisy? Whataboutisms? It seems to be very popular these days.

Well, I once thought that way, too, but technically, the whiskey is aged at a higher proof and then water is added to adjust it’s alcohol content at the time of bottling. You’d just be re-adjusting it to suit your own tastes. I’ve used basically an eye-dropper with some distilled water on a few occasions and it’s done…

Tried it again, still works. :) Thanks so much.

Just made this last night for a small crowd of very different palates and they all loved it. 5 stars!

Louis Cypher in Angel Heart. mmmmmm

“Kirkland” is the label that Costco slaps on some of the best food I’ve ever bought. Lobster raviolis from them, 15 yrs ago, still beat anything I’ve had in good-to-great restaurants.

It would be a tiny bit more helpful if, in your article, you could mention when services are limited to certain locations/nations/etc and not others.

Exactly. If a cop stops your girlfriend and rapes her, she just needs to comply, mover her hips a little, say a few nice things about how big he is, and later, after she's had a rape kit inspection [basically another, beneficial rape] at a hospital, you can press charges and hope the humiliation in court doesn't make…

Actually, when I lived in SoCal but commuted often to Toronto, LAX was a breeze. For no good reason that I know of, the AirCanada [very expensive but not a lot of choices] departures were a 5 minute walk from check-in.

Any Canadians with Amazon Prime want to weigh in? I'm tempted to get it, have Netflix and shomi [Rodgers] and this would get me HBO at least, and I wouldn't mind that at all. But Netflix Canada is an almost completely different catalog from NetUK and NetUS, so I don't want to make assumptions before I commit.

I like the tiny, inconsequential world-fact that my personal hero, Chris Hadfield, won the TopGun 'trophy' when he trained there.

I will now have to play with that app. Thanks!

The last four times I've had rooms painted [I'm old and crippled, so I wouldn't be able to do it even if I wasn't lazy] I bought the paint separately. They supplied dropcloths, brushes, tape, etc out of their own truck and I paid a flat rate. Dining room took 2 coats, about 8 hrs of actual work, and they cleaned up.…

These people don't like or respect each other - the wife doesn't want to be intimate with him for a variety of reasons and doesn't even make an effort to be convincing. The man is a whiny wimp. They need to split.

I've filled a freezer bag with very warm water and just laid it over fish - sort of a reverse water bed. I didn't detect and damage, but it was trout, not sole, so there may be limitations at the more extreme ends.

In fact, from what I've been told, one of the very problems is that bounce back - plus the suspension on the gear - that can cause the craft to suddenly boing around with very little control - especially shear to the side.

Newk'-u-ler if I recall it correctly.

Two quotes from John Wooden that, I think, renders the 'private - public' bullshit debate moot:

More like chattel - which isn't quite the same as property. More like a dog or a goat. Which, when it's displeasing or you're hungry, you kill it.
