Do you have any brothers or sisters?

[NeoCaveman]

Really? I've never tried that. Vodka or Bourbon with it?

Vodka.

The kids these days like red bull and cherry vodka, it's called a cherry bomb.

[Fierce Allegiance]

Yes, two brothers and two sisters.

The kids these days

Spoken like a true fogey.

[Slip18]

Well, just dang. I have a whole case of Red Bull in the garage and lotsa Vodka and Marachino cherries. Hmmmm.

Cyber used to make cherry bombs with Everclear and Marachino cherries. You have to let the cherries sit in the Everclear for about a month.

Spoken like a true fogey.

You wound me, lol

There's the beginnings of your genealogy. What's your Cyborg designation? I'm 5 of 11. I still sign birthday cards to my mom, "No. 5."

Then we will let you fully recover before I start the next series of treatments.

You've never made the cherry bombs for me, I might add. LOL!

Here's a most excellent column about the Paris riots.

"On November 9, 1938, the Nazi government launched a vicious pogrom in which thousand of Jews were rounded up and sent to concentration camps, while bands of young Nazi thugs smashed the windows of Jewish homes and shops. Kristallnacht — the "Night of Broken Glass" — sent through the world a premonition of the dark and murderous future that lay ahead for Europe.

Over the past week and half, almost exactly 67 years later, another band of young thugs has taken to the streets in an orgy of brute violence, complete with racially and religiously motivated killings. But there is a strange difference."

How's this for a Circle of Life Thing:

Marty --> 7th cousin of Jesse Lazear --> colleague/contemporary of Walter Reed --> Reed has Army medical center named after him --> FR rallies there to support troops!

No Kevin Bacon in your degrees of separation?

[NeoCaveman]

Well, just dang. I have a whole case of Red Bull in the garage and lotsa Vodka and Marachino cherries. Hmmmm.

That sounds really good.

"The Muslims also denigrate reason, not in favor of personal emotion but in favor of an equally subjective faith; in Islam, two and two make five if Allah wills it. As for the relationship of Islam to other cultures, the Koran is very clear. People of other cultures are to be forcibly converted to Islam — under threat of death — except for a few whose existence may be tolerated so long as they accept the status of "dhimmi," second-class citizens who dutifully accept a whole series of restrictions lest they offend the sensibilities of Muslims."

I will never be a dhimmi. Great find, W!
