(for the wine... groceries are alays good to have too though) Oh, and I like green shoes.

Agreed, I tried putting open red wine in the fridge but it just took too long to get up to a nice temperature. Vacuum corked on the counter works just fine.

Thanks for all the good waves sent this way. We are in a room, they took blood and his white cell count is up (17000) so an infection and it is good that we came in. They are going to do a cat scan in a bit so we should know more later. Wish us luck.

Hehe, we have had many Springer Spaniels. I loved them to death but they are wimps and stand no chance against a cat. I am in the emergency room waiting room... not my favorite place to be ( hubby had a high fever tonight and has been having a lot of abdominal pain for the last week so here we are).

It is always G&T weather in Florida.

Congrat! Unfortunately, I spent the afternoon doing taxes and found out that I will be writing Uncle Sam a nice big check. The good news is that I don't owe a penalty! That looks good, I'll try it out.

Went to make an "FBI Fizz ala Al" but realized I didn't have any soda or sparkling water (wasn't about to try making it with 7-up ). So, I am having a Negroni instead. Cheers!

Yep, my first. Her thesis is on "The (n)-Solvable Filtration of the Link Concordance group and Milnor's Mu-Invariants," in other words, math stuffs and yes, will certainly prove the existence of infinite moar bass with moar bigger cables.

I like both of these posts! I had my first PhD student pass her thesis defense day. A day to celebrate (especially since she has a tenure-track job)!

Very nice Ric, didn't know they had Smart Wool. I am on my third pair (one sprint, two KSO) but one pair is slightly too small. That reminds me, if anyone is interested in a pair of size 36 women's KSO (black) that have only been worn twice, let me know and maybe we can work something out.

Double post.

Agree about the Campari, Aperol just doesn't do it IMO.

Just finished reading/editing my student's PhD thesis, yay (the defense is tomorrow)!

Heh, I guess that drink would turn you into a Zombie with both W&N and S&C. What about the Coruba? Nice drink Al and, of course, the kick of gin is approved here.

^That looks tasty!

Happy Birthday!

I hope you don't have the weight of the world weighing down on you (since you didn't add a splash of rye). My link

Stag's Leap makes some nice wine.

Nice view Ken! Good luck with the sale.

Happy Birthday!

Thanks, me too. At least I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Now it is sleepy time. Nice drinks Al. I would have to agree that that the CR #2 is better (I mean, it is awesome and #1 doesn't sound as awesome or as corpse reviving).

Happy Birthday!
