I see myself as the old guy with the wine.

Speaking of old guys ....

I just came home to a surprise.

Mrs.E. somehow got me a bottle of Samuel Adams Utopia for Valentine's day.
Apparently it took quite a while to get.
Only 12000 bottles were produced. *I have bottle number 3061.

Feel kinda cheap because I had just come back from CVS picking up a card and
a stupid red Teddy Bear holding a lollipop or something for her.

Now, to plan the special occasion to try the beer. *You drink it as if it is
cognac, according to the directions. *I don't want to open it until there
are enough people here to enjoy it.

Man, that's a big beer, meaning, it's high gravity, meaning it's HIGH
alcohol by volume!

Hey Loogie, you know you sound just like Tim, with a little more
southern fried in the dialect? - Hide quoted text -

I don't know whether to take that as a compliment or not! Just
kidding, Tim's a stand up guy, like you. I'll tell you what's funny,
though, I've been in the south for somewhere near 25 years, but when I
go to western NY, after a couple of days, the yankee comes back~!
