3:00 snapshot #799



From last weekend (will I ever catch up?), brunch at IHOP. True story: I tweeted complaining about the cologne someone sitting near us was wearing and it was retweeted by someone with link to an IHOP promotion of some sort. Hopefully Alexis is having a full Scottish breakfast. I had to google it to make sure there was such a thing--I've had plenty of English and Irish breakfasts, but hadn't heard anyone talk about Scottish. Looks about the same. Tangentially, I tried playing the bagpipe the other night--you apparently need the combined lung capacity of 5 tuba players to pull it off.

You shouldn't need that much lung capacity -- that's what the bag is for. (my daughter used to play) You just take your time filling it if you can't do it in a couple of puffs.

Oh! That makes sense. I was trying to inflate the whole thing AND make the sound at the same time. I'll try again next time.

And you had to have been weaned on single malt.

It's the glass of whiskey that makes it special.
