If a Fruit Fly flies into a glass of wine, do you keep on drinking or do you dump it out?

Do as we did in the BLACK WATCH RHR:

Grab it by the wings and scream:

“Spit it out ya wee bastard!”

When the show first came out I read all the books. I didn’t want to wait to find out what happens. Don’t bother. A never ending story that goes nowhere.
Very few shows can capture the books. (Tom Clancy’s stuff worked on the screen.) HBO did a good job on the series and was better than the books, although, after reading the books I gave up on the series.

That was also around the time I could start telling the voices of Phil Collins and Peter Gabriel apart and that's not an easy thing to do either to the untrained ear.

This is the best, truest sentence I have ever seen on FR.

You might not enjoy this since it's post "classical" Genesis, but it's instructive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3wSbey0BAA&list=RDA3wSbey0BAA&index=1

I’d grab the fruit-fly by the wings and scream at it. “Spit it out, spit it out”.


You’re an idiot. ...only a three stooges could come up with that. Thank you. ....

I have no compunction in swallowing the fly, however I usually rely on surface tension and the tip of my finger to retrieve the fly. The finger tip has to be dry to attract and capture the fly.

Think of the starving children in Africa, and you dare throw out perfectly good protein. Shame.......

I wouldn’t worry much about the fly unless it just came out of a filthy outhouse or you just walked past a bum.

Good God man... Collins sounded like a cat in heat had had it’s tail stomped on. I hate his politics but Gabriel was exceptional.

“Do you dump the wine into the sink and pour yourself another (expensive) glass? Or do you just pretend there is no fly in there and continue drinking?”

Just spoon it out and set it free. It’s drunk anyhow.

I don’t know the timetable on the new books, but maybe you’ll finish the current ones right as the new ones are released. I’ve never read them, myself.

Thanks! Sam Adams is actually one of my favorites here, I was just giving him some s—t. I’m strictly a good dark beer drinker here. But nothing against wine, to each their own!

The rule as an extraordinary Eucharist minister in the Catholic church: drink the fly. You gotta take one for the team. Odd as it may seem, that little fly has drank of the blood of Christ.

Really?
I give you a compliment and you give me the finger.

I searched Youtube to find a 3 stooges episode with a fly.
The ones I found were longer than I wanted. I was there. ..

I do not expect a apology
Go with God
