Besides resolutions (most won't last a week) and straight-key night (SKN) where you can hear a vintage key chirping, what's up for the new year?

I think some drinks are in order to lubricate the thought process on this one Charles.

(or should that read bartender?)

Sorry, after seeing that glop in a glass I'm rather put off on drinking at the celebration. Eh, if you hear a straight key chirping you're listening to a spark transmitter, a Meissner Signal Shifter or an Islander half on the floor.

There's a bottle of that brandy in a glass cabinet at Pine Orchard, which is my favorite dealer. Never priced it, but but he stocks some stuff that fetches multiple C-notes. Next time I am in I shall measure the offering demanded.

Do it in a snobbish way that implies possible purchase before you bust out laughing at the good 'ol Wall street boys only price.

Putting on my best Richard Pryor strut... Yeah I'm grumpy! Yeah, yeah I'm grumpy! A little Remy Martin might fix that but I never could afford that brand.

"Do it in a snobbish way..."
That's pretty easy but takes a bit of preparation. First, moisten your upper lip and snort some starch, be sure you get plenty on your lip. Be sure to cover the lower one! Don't forget your impeccable grooming, fresh haircut and not a hair out of place, a little spray will hold it there and be sure you shave clean and smooth, nary a whisker to be seen. The lather will remove the starch from your lip but remember it's stiff so be careful. Dress for the occasion but be sure you do it last, starch on your custom tailored suit makes a bad impression. Renting a Rolls Royce, Bentley or even a Jaguar touring car helps considerably. Don't go overboard and drive a Ferrari, snobs leave flashy sports cars to footloose playboys and the nouveau riche, and your name isn't Thomas Magnum. Then when you get to the location, park squarely in front of the door, parallel with the driver's side facing the building, after all snobs are privileged so show it off. Throw your shoulders and head back and strut in, don't overdo it or they'll think you're truckin' and be sure to stare blankly at the ceiling until the clerk comes over to serve you. Then look down your nose at him and snort, then speaking through your nose in just short of a French accent say "this" and point limply at the Remy Martin. From that point on just play it by ear but don't bust out laughing too soon, milk the prank for all it's worth!

As a quick FYI, my beard is now longer, and my ear piercings have been greatly stretched :yes:

Too tired.

As far as New Year's Eve/Day goes:

A few bottles of stout and 'DSG may have a glass of rum. She's got to work both days and is none too happy about it.

Nothing much here, just the usual Bacchanal orgy. A few amphora of wine, a few dozen virgins. You know, same shit, different year. Yawn.
