Despite my occasional desire for time to stand still so I could live in a moment forever, mercifully for me and those with me, I’m not God and can’t make time stop. (This gets me wondering about metaphysical questions [...]

31 Oct 2010We’ve come down to that time of the year when the Old SNOTS gather to select the favorite whisky of the year.
