damn, son. that Linkwood, especially, should be really good stuff. i had a cask strength '85 (bottled in 2005) that was out of this world good. i have not had Scotch whisky in nearly 7 months. i need to fix that.

Big Linkwood fan - looking forward to the Adelphi.

Long distance tracking system for my cat and dog:

This way we can track them down in the country. I think for the first time in years I may be able to let my dog off leash :)

Got this today. Pretty ficking cool other than you look like a nutter walking around with the tracker. No more lost cat, ever :)

Got me some of the gin that luvdunhill asked me to send to him and morphsci; when I special ordered it they only had two bottles for me and I sent them both out, but found another one locally in stock. Haven't opened it yet....

Jim, can you note any comparison to Hendrick's? That's what I've had most recently.....did open the Blackwoods just to try it, but wasn't the best of conditions, just poured a tiny bit into an OJ glass :P

Hendricks has a cucumber and a bit of pepper taste to it. The Gale force has more juniper (but not like Junipero) flavor. Hendricks to me is an outlier among gins flavor wise. Not that that is a bad thing or I wouldn't have a bottle of Hendricks in the house. When I was getting back into gin, both Shelly and Al suggested using a Blanc vermouth rather than dry when making a Hendricks Martini. That was an excellent suggestion. I've drunk quite a bit of gin out of all kinds of non approved glassware, just not very good gin and not recently. :)

Nice Camera Colin, just remember to disable the GPS on those covert missions :)

and to think, you could have had the pink one, instead :)

We expect all your sous-vide's to be georeferenced from now on ;)

Those are cool shoes Mike and Shelly. I am tempted, whereas I never even thought about getting the Five Fingers. How is the heel/in-sole Mike? I think I have plantar fasciitis and should get more support than my usual flat as hell soles.
