If these people have their way, the USA will become a religious autocracy that respects human rights on a level comparable to that in Iran.

Lee Harvey Oswald was pretty much American’s most hated man when they found out he shot Kennedy. I’m absolutely not saying anyone should try to shoot Trump, but I guess if someone were to do it, they would likely gain Mangione-type fame.

If there’s one Islay malt that I’d not be as reluctant to put in a cocktail, it’s that Laphroaig, but somehow the thought still feels wrong.

Fun fact: As a kid, I crossed the inner-German border in Berlin frequently before the Wall came down. At the Friedrichstraße subway station, they used to use a floor cleaner with a very dictinct phenolic smell to it. So whenever I have an Islay whisky, I cannot help but remember these days before 1989.
