I understood "hey" and that is it. At least, I think I understood that part. Anymore, with all of the abbreviations, I am lucky to understand anything.

I assume you like them dry too? My grandfather was infamous for his dry martinis...he had the same bottle of vermouth for over 30 years Supposedly all he did was mix up the martini, uncork the bottle and pass it by the martini, then re-cork it.

I have two daughters. The younger, 17 now, is surly or quiet when there boy crushes/breakups or self esteem concerns. She usually processes through things in a matter of weeks, then is somewhat normal again. We just continue to love her and affirm her. Her choices have been solidly right on, so far... Exhausting.

very dry yes. I believe Mr Churchhill is famous for saying something like. a Martini is best made while looking across the room at the vermouth.

Nah, small martini.

Great thread, BG! So refreshing that there's no pretense to talk about bikes.
