Mock Paper Scissors 
Going to dinner over at the daughters place. Not going to drink there because she’s almost ready to deliver a baby girl. Both she and hubby have their hospital bags in the car so neither of them are drinking (not that she would anyway). Should be a nice dinner with turkey and all the fixings (don’t ask) But when I get home hell yeah. I’ve been saving a nice bottle of Glenlivet Caribbean Reserve…

I notice you didn’t link to the next one because you didn’t want to ruin everyone’s appetite, so I will.

I read those, too. Initially, I thought, yeah, no. I can eat a can of soup at home. Then I saw the deal is, Manchin and Sinema would help abolish the filibuster if we made a choice.
It’s a tough one. I think Table 5.

If you must, 5 is probably the table least likely to make you puke all over the table before dinner is served. You’re a better man than I am, Ali Redford.

All I will tell you is that I am a Campbell on my Dad’s side of the family. Yes, THAT Campbell, and I would have a footman to serve them behind every chair. Heh.

By THAT Campbell, do you mean The Soup Campbell or the “no soup for you!” Campbell?

Table #1. Go into the lair of the beast and have full at it at TFG. I would call him the world’s biggest loser at every opportunity, call on him out for every lie (which is when his lips move), have him spluttering by the end of the meal and hating my guts. Bully the bully. The rest of the lightweights at the table would avoid me once they know I’m playing for keeps.

I don’t sit at any of the tables. I put a five gallon plastic jerrycan of gasoline in the oven, turn up as high as it will go, then go outside and start nailing the doors shut.

Laphroaig Triple Cask or genuine Senior Curacao of Curacao for me. Decisions, decisions.
OK, the Curacao won. I came home from a solar eclipse/SCUBA trip there in 1998 with a 375ml bottle and nursed it for about 17 years as the island was the only place to get it, and one day my local Specs had it. I bought 10 or 12 750ml bottles in anticipation of days like this.
Pure Caribbean orange sunshine in every sip.

Try the video. I got a mix of the orange and blue versions.

A genuine low-bow with a flourish tip of the hat to you, Sir Rev.
Real Curaçao rules; the stuff we usually find is terrible.

When I was a kid, we had Thanksgiving at my Gramma Mac’s & it was always great … after dinner, we always played bingo at the dinner table … my grandmother calling the numbers. She had this great old bingo set with wooden pieces. After the game, she would present little prizes to the first, second & third-place winners. Then we’d have another round of pie … My grandmother really knew how to make any dinner party fun.
