I think this means one or the other of us owes the other one a beer. Damned if I know which. |

I've been getting into Belgian styles recently. Actually, though, any high-quality beer will do. I'm a bit tired of the whole "my hops are hoppier than yours" BS that seems to have taken hold over the last couple of years... |

Thanks Lemmy, for solving that mystery for me.
I won't say thanks to our Webmaster,since I've done it a million times already, but might send him a Reward in his PM box.
Just had 3 level 4 z. glasses of Gallo Family Chardonnay (from 2 "split" bottles, and I am a bit inhibited, so if I decide to send Deeky a reward, it will be later).
The foolish, dull and cruddy vapors that often enviorn my brain have been dried, so for now, it's hold off on sending Deeky a reward.
I read up on Sherri-Sack, and according to the Wiki writers (can they be trusted?), the Sherri-sack that Sir John Falstaff drank was a white wine from Spain, but it was not fortified with brandy.
When Orson Wells did his recitation from King Henry, he claimed that Sherri-Sack was fortified with brandy, which was supposed to change the flavor of the wine.
So, who knows more about Sherri-Sack? Orson Wells, or Wiki writers?
Shades of Forry Ackerman!
During my own lifetime Sherry (and probably port too, have gone into a decline in popularity, noted by the Wiki writers).
Patrolled a number of area liquor stores, and Harvey's Bristol Creme is still available in half bottles, expensive, but I could probably still afford it as a rare treat.
Dry Sack, however, I found only in one store, and it's only in 750 ml bottles, way beyond my limited means.

A bit more of the ole Forry Ackermanism:
While genuflecting (thanks Wilum Pugmire) on Sherri-Sac wines, I was reminded of the George Peters and Ron Dyer porno star look-alike Bobby Goldsboro, and his song about the Cowboy and the lady, the lady drinking Harvey's Bristol Creme, and the cowboy drinking ???

At least we'll finally find out if Billy is an anteater or not.

All the best is way overdue to you, PiF. Here's to a much-improved 2019.
I think I just need to get back outside again. I realized that I have been literally going from vehicle to room, back to vehicle to bigger space, to vehicle back to room, with the odd visit to other rooms for one thing or another. But apart from those brief minutes in between car and rooms, way too little outside time for Kobby in 2018.
I don't make huge resolutions, as you can see.
I just plugged in my new Lampat lamp last night and I intend on doing a lot more reading before bed in 2019, too. That thing is going to provide another decade of eyesight. I was ruining it trying to read under the shitty old desk lamp I was using.

Is there a New Year's resolution connected to the Bluetooth earpiece, Lem?
I'm just going to try to lost those last ten pounds -- I am down to 155 lbs today, from 195 -- and not start inhaling doughnuts again and pitch all that progress out the window. |

(Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb doesn't count because everyone just calls it Dr. Strangelove. Also I've never seen it) But it is very good. I think movies with really long titles are like books with very long titles: you have quite a chore ahead of you just getting through it. If you've ever tried to slog thru a book with a title like "The Compleat and Horrid Murther of Sweet Daddy Jones, with the Compleat Trial Proceedings, the Even More Compleat Appeals Pleadings and A Memoir of the Condemned Prisoner, Translated Into Esperanto by A Miss Higgins of the Upper Peninsula Historical Society, Stating Again the Horrudness of the Crime" -- man, you'd long for a refreshing dose of Cash Flagg's zombie musical! |

Does anybody recall the title of that book of vintage black and white Halloween photos from the early 1900's? I went looking for it to purchase, but my Google-Fu is off today.

Definitely the right idea, although it's yet another book along those lines that I'm thinking about. Serves me right for hemming and hawing about ordering it many months ago. Anyway, this article has enough shots for me to get some great ideas for dressing up my manikins next Halloween. Many thanks, though! |

Is Bob Mueller's investigation EVER going to end?
And when it does, will it be A) good taste, B) bad taste or C) positively yummy to serve Watergate Cake at the after-party?

Anybody know where to find some free downloads of creepy organ music like from the old horror movies?  |
