The jewel in the crown of Samizdata.net
A blog for people with a critically rational individualist perspective. We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.

Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR

Hope you had fun, your choice of single malt alone shows why I hold this Blog and it's readers/writers in such high esteem!!

Ditto regarding your selection of Laphroaig.

Are you sure you have my address down properly Perry? The invitation seems to have been lost in the post again! ;-)

Gosh, you are so politically incorrect. You just don't care at all do you? You're wild and out of control!

Look, they're drinking whisky. And — my God — smoking in a perfectly legal fashion. Take that, you nanny stater panjandrums: the old men with the garden table are at it again.

What fun, what bravery.

Legal for now, though of course taxed heavily by some gits who see the world the way you do. Oh and we had our garden heater on just to increase our carbon footprint.

... who see the world the way you do.

Ah, so you're psychic as well. Just all round kerrrazy, I guess.

Oh and we had our garden heater on just to increase your carbon footprint.

That's an impressive feat. I'd expect it to increase your carbon footprint.

What were you celebrating ? 9/11 ?

No, I just looked at your blog where your views are very easy to discover. Idiot.

Nothing in particular, Jacob, just an excuse to burn Castro's fields a few leaves at a time.

Absinth, Port, Single Malt and a hefty dosage of Demanovka - I'm surprised you managed to even wake up this morning, let alone blog anything ...

Stuart, you weren't invited, so live with it, overcome the pain and take up yoga or something.

Nice to see Bruce Nichol (in the pink shirt, in the snazzy red braces) looking in good form.

Nothing in particular

Well, tomorrow's the Jewish new year. I will celebrate it, and I wish you all a good year.


Posted by Jacob at September 11, 2007 10:13 PM

I know naught about you, Stuart, but I've got to say you come across as quite a prick.


Posted by Albion at September 11, 2007 11:24 PM

Looks like fun. But I am still on the road, 4 months now... Manhattan again by this weekend, then Connecticutt to work with a physicist up there, then out to Alamogordo for business and the XPrize Cup... I'll be sure to get a few shots of spacers at play ;-)


Posted by Dale Amon at September 12, 2007 04:24 AM

Laphroaig....ahhhh.


Posted by Kerry at September 12, 2007 02:04 PM

I like Laphroaig, but it's just a little too peaty for me -- and so I tend to drink it like an after-dinner liqueur, so that the strong flavor stands out.

In terms of volume, give me a good Speyside malt, any day...
