Sadly, I havenโ€™t had any in the past 4+ years due to stroke recovery. I have a bottle of Aberlour single malt waiting for me to crack it open to celebrate my move into independent living by early 2026.

NATIONAL SCOTCH DAY | July 27 NATIONAL SCOTCH DAY On July 27, we recognize an aged whisky distilled from malted barley and make a toast on National Scotch Day. Let's spend some time sharing

July 27 is apparently #NationalScotchDay โ€” my favorite alcoholic beverage (straight, on the rocks).

#California is the 4th largest economy in the world. Maybe #CA should have a seat at the #G7 instead of an incontinent, dementia-addled, bigot felon?

Senator Alex Padilla of California was removed by force from Kristi Noemโ€™s presser and handcuffed for his free speech. This is what a fascist regime does that rejects the laws of the US. It should horrify every American. Letโ€™s stop pretending we are approaching authoritarian rule. We are there.
