4. Have I ever mentioned what a peach you are?
If not, let me state so for the record right here.

20. A Cojimar is a cigar? I'll meet you out on our screened porch.
I don't smoke in the house (kid with allergies). Good thing we have that screened porch...

26. Brandy-soaked with a sugar tip. Sounds yummy.
Just the thing to relax with while listening to the night birds.

31. They are great.
and the sugar tip gives them a great flavor. And they are very smooth.

33. I'm not all that big on cigars, but you've persuaded me that those
are worth a try. Smoothness is everything in a cigar, and damned hard to find.

Reminds me of... "I like my men like I like my coffee, strong and a little bit sweet." :)

18. Oh yes, he is.
And oh, by the way, do you have the shirt? Or, do you know, who has the shirt? 'Cause I haven't seen it around in probably 6 months, and I talked to this dude... who said that he'd seen the shirt, you know?

21. Very few people know, and they're not saying.
Not tonight, anyway.

But there may be forthcoming allegations.

In the meantime, I hope those people rest up, knowing what may be coming down the line, and the energy they may need for it. :hug:

29. They'd better be ready, or they'll wish they had been. This subject has
been festering quietly for far too long. Once the revelations are brought out into the open, then things will get VERY interesting, trust me.

Soon. Not tonight, probably not tomorrow, but soon.

19. Dunno. I keep venturing out, but keep getting laughed at so I go back in.
Half the time, I think the ogling is just a joke too. Would be.

Mind you, it's probably not ogling either...

It's the hint of the peat in it...brings back primal memories of my west of Ireland roots. :)

24. How about Tullamore Dew? That's my favorite Irish.
It was unavailable here for about five years, but is back now.

28. It's all right....
Not my first choice. My :loveya: sometimes drinks it, but his family came from Offaly where Tullamore is located and he feels the necessity of hoisting one for the home team. It was he who taught me about the goodness of Powers.

30. I've not tried Powers.
(Does that sentence structure tell you I'm half Irish, or what?)

Will have to see if the local store carries it.

except that you did not end the first or third sentences with a question, now did you?

On edit: Fixed typo.

35. I've not tried Powers, don't you know?
And there's a second sentence here, signifying nothing except to lead into the third one.

Is that better?

37. Very good, don't you think?
I love to listen to Irish people talk. There's this great Irish bar with good food (much of it Cajun...go figure) in my town and both the waitress and bartender are from Ireland. I go there to hear them.

:D

38. now I REALLY have to come visit. Do they offer their cigarette pack around
when they're ready to light up?

I noticed that to be a habit of the Irish musicians I used to sit in with now and again.

39. I haven't seen that....
but they are about to ban smoking in restaurants and bars here at the start of next year, don't cha know? You do know that Ireland banned pub smoking a couple years ago? And it hasn't affected business, so I've read, haven't I?

41. What the FUCK happened to Wyoming? I thought it was one of those
wide-open, do-what-you-want kind of frontier places? Have the flatlanders taken over there as well?

That's one of the reasons we're moving to New Hampshire. The people up there are so cussed that they will NOT let the state tell them what to do or not to do in a bar.

PS: A very large number of the pubs in Ireland are ignoring that law.

46. Oops yet again. Mea maxima culpa.
No, being a flatlander is not in and of itself a bad thing at all. I use that term as a native Vermonter - meaning someone who moves from a wealty area to a poorer one, then expects the poorer area to conform to his wishes and expectations.

If you live your life in the flat lands, that does NOT moke you a flatlander.

Capisce?

It's just that most of the Chicago area is flatter than a pancake.

:D

49. Well, now you know something that you didn't know this morning.
And any day when I can say that, I consider it to have been a good day.

Besides, how could I possibly criticize Chicago? It's the home of the "all-dressed" hotdog, after all! Any place that includes celery salt as a hotdog garnish cannot be bad.

Being hill challenged, we just don't use the term flatlander around here.
