Please don't forget to include an extra $15 each back to me as a handling and service fee. Happy Birthday, guys!

I miss him. Thank you, my friends. Your humor, wit and wisdom continue to be a source of daily joy in my life. I'm going to spend today in a staff meeting with ~80 of my colleagues, but there will be beer and pizza later with Mrs. Tuttle and the Tuttle-ettes. Special thanks to CV for starting the thread, to Scott for sending me a rare and wonderful libation with which to celebrate, and to Mark for always helping me feel like I'm slightly less confused than at least one other person.

My daughter is one of those people who is predisposed to dislike any new food/beverage. Despite quite a few "adventure tastes", I really haven't found any beer/wine/cocktail flavor that she doesn't absolutely hate. I'm sure she'll make choices and live her own life, but she's not the kind of kid who is inclined to suffer through something that tastes yucky just so that she can feel sickish. Man, life is weird. bibere usque ad hilaritatem

Actually, I can relate. My Mom went her whole life hating the flavour of anything with alcohol in it. That is until she discovered Bailey's Irish Cream about 10 years ago. Now we constantly have to check her coffee to make sure it isn't hiding a wee dram of the "just for flavouring." With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.
