"gravely otherworldly voice"
Interesting, but I suspect you meant gravelly, unless...

Careful Roger!

That would probably hurt less than several other places...

I did consider other locations, but realised this was the lounge!

Excellent! Et tu?
Long time no see, m'lady. Bullhead City hasn't been the same since you left. In fact, it's cooled off some!
Next time you stop by, I've got some new guns to try out!

It's not fair that Canada gets a day all to it's own and none of the other states do. They should at least do a Texas day.

You forgot about a glass of Screech or rye whiskey!
Oh, and poutine and maple syrup...
|
|
|
|
|
Screech? Is that what they call that filtered sewage known here as Canadian Whiskey?
Will Rogers never met me.
|

No... screech in a rum from Newfoundland and, as such, a distinctly Canadian product.
|
|
|
|
|
It's a rum. Popular in Newfoundland, and my house. (Although brewed in Jamaica)

Hell no. Screech is the Newfie version of the the Pan-Galactic Gargle Blaster except it leaves you feeling like you've had your brains smashed in by maple cured bacon wrapped around a fresh Cod.

|
|
|
|
Hmmm.. I'll have to look for that; it sounds delicious!

No, Screech is a dorky character from a bad 90's sitcom.

Sounds like when you get home from the office you should drink a Baby Seal:
Club soda over a pile of coconut.
A shot of Canadian Club Whiskey.
A splash of grenadine for color.
Served with a wooden stirring stick.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

As long as I don't have to drink it, that sounds like fun!

Feel free to swap the rotgut for something better from your liquor cabinet.

If only there were a holiday for enjoying feats of strength and the airing of grievences...
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Nothing like a good ole' American pre-emptive strike for all the whinging we'll hear about the evil/overbearing/uncivilized United States on Friday.
Thanks, Roger!
