On vacation

Monday, June 23rd, 2008

I’m on vacation. That’s why I have been absent the past few days. I haven’t deserted you. It will continue for a little while longer. The next issue of our magazine just went to the printer and  the next two WhiskyFests are not until the fall, so it’s a good time to take time to […]

Vacationing until June 2nd

Sunday, May 25th, 2008

I’ll be at the Jersey Shore for the next week. Yes, I will have whisky (and whiskey) with me. No, I do not plan on working. That includes blogging. I’ll be back in one week, with plenty to talk about. Have a great week everyone!

This got me to thinking. Instead […]

You can now comment, so give it a try!

Tuesday, November 20th, 2007

Okay, I give in. I’m opening the blog up to comments. People are emailing me about my blog comments because they can’t comment on the blog site. (I get the hint.)
Let’s use this posting as the test posting. I know a lot more about whisky than I do blogging software, so we might have to iron out […]
