Friday Night Wine-Buzz.

With some cannabis to help it along.

The tips of my fingers and toes are numb...

That's how you know it's working...

Thank God It's Friday, amirite?

I love you all...

Watch This Space - Drinking Thread Going Up Later Tonight.

If I'm even able to type by then...

I remember when I was a kid thinking how lucky I was to have been born in the US. Now I'm wishing I had been born Canadian, or in New Zealand, or Denmark, or someplace.

Our threadbare, shopworn, moth-eaten country has definitely seen better days...

Has anyone heard any more buzz about the Army bringing back the old 'pinks and greens'?



I think it would be wonderful. The old pickle-green Class A uniform sucked. And todays' choice of ADU's or dress blues is a little impractical.

The last I heard was an Army Times report from last year. Anything a little more recent?

Friday Night Beer-Buzz.

That's right: it's beer tonight. Alaskan Amber. The closest I get anymore to mass-market beer. It's not strictly a microbrew, but it's pretty good. Nice and smooth...

Good evening, Loungers! I love you all...

The Trumpsters will criticize Barack Obama's speech,

just as soon as they finish looking up all the words they didn't understand...

Mozart's Horn Concerto #1 in D major:

Every time I listen to this, I think "Pride And Prejudice", because the famed 1996 BBC miniseries used a similar piece in the opening credits.

Last day of clinic before a much-needed break. Help me make it through the day.

Thank you for always being there for me, Loungers...

I love you all...

About Aristus

I truly believe that we will all live in peace and brotherhood someday. And so that I don't lose my faith in humanity, I will live my life as if that day had already happened.
