Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Happy Bourbon day!!!

It's also Flag Day. Are these connected?

There's a woman in my office who really loves her bourbon. I'd spotted an item about the Bardstown, KY, Bourbon Festival - told her about it and she was galvanized. Zipped off to look it up ... and was very unhappy to discover there were no hotel rooms left (it's in September).

She is, meanwhile, making do with the local bourbon and BBQ festival.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Happy Bourbon day!!!

It's also Dylan's birthday. Draw your own conclusions...

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Happy birthday, Dylan!!

I finally got around to arranging the archive visit I have to write up for class on Saturday. Luckily, the Museum of Anesthesiology's archivist was wonderful and willing to fit me in on Thursday afternoon (it's not too far from here). That gives me some time right after the visit and then Friday night to finish writing it up.

She and the Library Director at the museum both went to my school for their MLSes, so she was completely understanding about what I need to do for the paper.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

There's a woman in my office who really loves her bourbon. I'd spotted an item about the Bardstown, KY, Bourbon Festival - told her about it and she was galvanized. Zipped off to look it up ... and was very unhappy to discover there were no hotel rooms left (it's in September).

She could always get a room in a nearby town and make the drive in. What could possibly go wrong?
