You’re welcome.

Asking for a friend.

Leonardo da Vinci tried, with his Vitruvian Man illustration. And he was as close to a god as the human race is likely to have. But even he had to fudge it a little. Notice that the square and the circle don’t line up perfectly.

Mine is gin Bloody Marys or G & T.s or beer or Cabernet Sauvignon.

Except for my single malts, I usually get affordable spirits for my cocktails.

It’s all about getting the right brands.

Animal, plant, fungus, microbe...

When I was a kid, I liked chimpanzees. I thought they were cute. You could dress them as humans and keep them as pets.

I thought.

I didn’t know at the time that chimpanzees are violent, unpredictable, and two-and-a-half times as strong as a human.

I thought gorillas were ugly.

I changed my mind as I grew older. Gorillas are beautiful. I love them, and I hate that they are unfairly maligned. The ‘Planet Of The Apes’ movies portray gorillas as sadistic soldiers, and they’re not. They’re peaceful and comfort-loving.

I love gorillas.

Who put the RAM in the ramalandadingdong?

Context?

It’s okay. I’m an idiot. Or old. Whichever you prefer.

Unless there is a specific time period for it.

55 mph, which bar will still be open upon my arrival in New Orleans?

They don't ever close, do they?

Well done!

Seemed like a rhetorical question as well.

I once wanted to go to New Orleans, but now I'm afeared of the locals down there.

Duh!…

What will you have?

(You know what kind of emoji we need to have? A cocktail-shaking emoji!)

Petition EarlG for that. He has to acquiesce. If it wasn't for your Friday Night Buzz threads, DU would be dead heading into the weekend. You have all the leverage, Aristus!

We tankers loved sangria. Jungle Juice. Whatever you want to call it. We were on board. We could get blindingly blitzed one night, and tear up the gunnery qualification tables the very next day.

“Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth…”

I don’t go to Supercuts. Or any other company that thinks that good hair care is something you can franchise.

I go to an old fashioned, striped pole, two-chair barbershop. I have very little hair. But what I have left, I want to look good. My barber does the job.

“About 2 weeks”

A joke that my father has told me countless times over the course of my life after almost every noticeable haircut I’ve ever had.

“Ya know the difference between a good haircut and a bad one dont’cha?”

As an aside, I have clipped my own hair for years and years - since I was probably 12 or 13 - on a 1 or 2 guard. 1 length all around, pure crew cut.

and a millipede a quart,

How much can a precipice?

Hard to say…

Put something ON!

I was just putting you on.

then inside you need a jug of punch.
