H'lo Michael!

I dunno, my machine doesn't do tinyurl's. If I don't 
get the whole thing I don't get to go there.

That's what I ordered when I first started drinking 
scotch. For a blend, water ( for me at least) seems 
to really open it up and allow one (me in this case)
to detect many of the nuances. I moved from
scotch and water to scotch on the rocks and 
if I'm out and having bar scotch, that's what I 
order. If I have a single malt I have it neat with 
an ice water back.

Sounds like the plot of a grade B '50's

->
Last week of sept is Sept 22-28 I am working all the games
with the exception of the 25th. What do you have in mind?
Since I'm working all the other games you certainly could 
come to any of them, but with Anne working and me at the 
ballpark getting you picked  up at the airport could be dicey.
 I think we might be able to work something out depending 
on your schedule and ours matching up.
chat with you soon!
