re: #8 O say, does that Star Spangled Banner yet wave..

Mrs. Fish ordered our newest restock of liquor from a local liquor store that now delivers. Woo! In there was a bottle of something called “Old Grand-Dad’s 114-proof whiskey.” It’s actually not bad, for being bargain shelf. It’ll knock you flat on your ass, though.

Got a tot of Old Grand-dad from our school’s military instructor when I was 12. It was sort of a performance award.
