January 25 is the birthday of famed Scot poet Robert Burns. And well, they celebrate. Food, poetry…and scotch whisky. I’m not Scottish, as far as I know, but hey, that just happens to be three things I can absolutely get behind celebrating. Flaviar, the whiskey club I joined late last year, even had a virtual event built around it. Ultimately, it was an attempt to sale some a well known peated whiskey, but it was also suppose to feature a poetry reading and tasting notes an a couple of scotches. I say suppose to because the audio wound up being … Continue reading Branch On Fire (Burns Night): Lagavulin, Offerman Edition

Just last week, I went back and re-read Maya Angelou’s And Still I Rise. I can’t remember why. It was referenced in something I was reading or watching or listening to, I just can’t remember what at this point. I even included it in my 2021 reading log. It’s always good to go back and read the great works as a reminder that some things transcend time or events. And as of today, we have a new entry in this pantheon, and I almost missed it. I watched President Joe Biden’s speech, but a good chunk of the day, the … Continue reading A New Star Delivers A New Entry In the Poetry Pantheon On Inauguration Day
One of the lasting things of 2020 may wind up being we finally figured out how to properly hang out virtually as a group. Whether it be Zoom, Facetime groups, Google Classroom, we have all been forced figure out ways to see each other without seeing each other. Companies now have virtual happy hours. Vendors do the same for clients. For example, tonight I was able to log into Facebook and watch a podcast with guys I went to high school with…and a couple whiskey experts. I wasn’t even part of the recording, just the chat. But still, it is … Continue reading Drinking Whiskey With Friends…Virtually
