Personal:

Bloody Hell...

    By Jack Grant

...I staged a happy hour for folks I work with this evening after work, and the waiter at the bar decides that this is the night to bring me a free glass of single-malt Scotch.

I had already had four on an empty stomach, so number five did a serious number on me.

One more post from me tonight, and that's it. That post will NOT be a thoughtful, insightful post, either.

Sorry... I'm reasonably intelligent and capable, but I do have limits, and I recognize when I have reached mine. Five generous measures of a strong single-malt on an empty stomach is more than even I can comfortably handle.

Five>! Holy crap. I'd be unconscious. After already thrown up once.

Bah! Single malt is overrated.
I prefer blended.

I just think it takes a certain talent to create the perfect blend rather than rely on an individual recipe. But of course, that's only my opinion. :)

Have a weekend!

We don't handle randomness well.

Trying to hold the center in not so quiet desperation while the left and the right do their damnest to tear everything apart.


What Others Say
An American transplanted to France for the moment, Jack is sometimes conservative, sometimes liberal, and almost always right.
   -Pennywit

Jack has an impressive knowledge of history, politics, and Keanu Reeves. When it comes to pirates, Jack is waaay sexier than that pansy Dread Pirate Roberts. Oh, wait--I'm thinking of Jack Sparrow...
   -Jennifer (Jennifer's History and Stuff)


Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
   -William Butler Yeats, January 1919


Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Wahabism Delenda Est
Wahabism must be destroyed.
