We can work something out but I'm not bringing Bombay or Tanguearay into my house.   Plenty of gin in all the world, that ain't walking into mine .

I expect Courvoirsier sales to plummet if that's the rule.

tell me what to put under my arm and I'll be standing on the threshold
I'll also tote your favorite brand of tonic, olives, limes, and lemons

Reading over the weekend how Ohio State is discovered having their own version of Dr Nassar. And as with the scandals at Penn State and Michigan St the University powers that be kept the perp’s crimes from view.

Shame on Penn State, Michigan St, USC, and now Ohio State.

After all the scandals of the Catholic Church, Penn State, Harvey Weinstein, #MeToo, etc - goes on and on - male sexuality.

The executive lounge here serves genuine Champagne, and some decent red and white wines too, starting now.  The wife wants to leave tomorrow at 0545.  Bummer.

I am watching Monk on TV, in French.  It's better in the original Klingon of course.

I think the weirdest foreign TV watching experience I had like that, was on a connecting flight from London to Athens, where they showed the whole plane (all like 6 of us) Frasier, on a single large screen in the front of the plane, dubbed in German, but with Greek subtitles.  For refreshments we were given plastic cups, and the stewardesses walked around pouring cheap red wine.  I drank enough of it to forget that I was convinced that plane was going down, which also makes my memories of that flight fairly surreal.  At 23 I thought "this is fine," where I think now the entire situation, which started with my entire trip being re-routed after a delay in Detroit made me miss my connecting flight in Boston, would give me a panic attack.

I flew more than a few puddle jumpers between London and Nantes back in the day.  When the crew outnumbers the passengers, it's time to start worrying.  Like you, I definitely handled it better in my 20s, than I would now.

I watched a lot of weird TV whilst living/working in France.  Beverly Hills 90210 dubbed in French was probably the most amusing.  Brandon's dubbed voice was crazy deep, like a French Morgan Freeman or something.

Now watching a business channel.  The Bourse and all that.

Something about veggie pizza.
