Winston Churchill got a prescription for alcohol in 1932 to get around American Prohibition.
“the quantity is naturally indefinite …”
I don’t blame him.

Lady Astor (to Churchill): You’re Drunk!
Churchill (to Lady Astor): I may be drunk, Miss, but in the morning I will be sober and you will still be ugly.

Sorry, yes. I lived on the corner of 80th and 1st. In a high rise (16th floor).
But I have lived all over Manhattan (Chelsea, Gramercy Park, West Side...even briefly in a sublet loft at 29th and 7th).

I went through a divorce and treaded water for a while emotionally.

Oh, and the scribble “keep on hand.” Do not throw this valuable piece of paper away!
To: Red Badger
That would be nice. I could celebrate for a week. Otherwise, it might go in two nights.
