100 plus year-old Scotch. Sounds good, and expensive.

Once bottled it no longer ages. Should taste original unless te seal was breached. This will be fun to see what the spirits were like then.
Some rich persons will drink it no doubt at some extravagant party.

If you read that book on a cold winter night you WILL NEED that alcohol!!!!
One of the best books I have read except for the "THE GREAT NORTHERN."

Isn't that like saying we've discussed gun control or Obama, so we don't need to do it again....

I was just wondering why your news over there is always so late with the major stories?

I think that might be scotch that is best drank with stinky friends in arctic wear with frostbitten fingers.

Cold weather makes the news flow slower.

It's the efficiency of the unfettered Free Market at work. Or something :rolleyes:
Might have a lot to do with the notable lack of inquisitiveness on the part of the American people, though :rolleyes::eek::rolleyes::D
Can't have been much good if they left it there! Or what were they thinking? Rick
