Good morning Tony and Dave
I followed the schorcher yesterday and almost bought some last calls but then thought.... I don't need 25 cigars that I can't remember if I liked them.

I could not pull the trigger. I kept putting things in my cart then deleting them.

Ran into a guy down the street who asked, "Are you guys going to learn all about the witches? It's a shame my wife just left, you wouldn't have to walk so far."

I'm guessing he's told that joke a thousand times, minimum.

Today is Wednesday, Aug. 4, the 216th day of 2021.
There are 149 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History
On August 4, 1987, the Federal Communications Commission voted 4-0 to abolish the Fairness Doctrine, which required radio and television stations to present balanced coverage of controversial issues.
On this date:
In 1735, a jury found John Peter Zenger of the New York Weekly Journal not guilty of committing seditious libel against the colonial governor of New York, William Cosby.
In 1790, the U.S. Coast Guard had its beginnings as President George Washington signed a measure authorizing a group of revenue cutters to enforce tariff and trade laws and prevent smuggling.
In 1892, businessman Andrew Borden and his wife, Abby, were axed to death in their home in Fall River, Massachusetts. Lizzie Borden, Andrew’s daughter from a previous marriage, was accused of the killings, but acquitted at trial.
In 1914, Britain declared war on Germany for invading Belgium; the United States proclaimed its neutrality in the mushrooming world conflict.
In 1916, the United States reached agreement with Denmark to purchase the Danish Virgin Islands for $25 million.
In 1936, Jesse Owens of the United States won the second of his four gold medals at the Berlin Olympics as he prevailed in the long jump over German Luz Long, who was the first to congratulate him.
In 1944, 15-year-old diarist Anne Frank was arrested with her sister, parents and four others by the Gestapo after hiding for two years inside a building in Amsterdam. (Anne and her sister, Margot, died at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp.)
In 1964, the bodies of missing civil rights workers Michael Schwerner, Andrew Goodman and James Chaney were found buried in an earthen dam in Mississippi.
In 1972, Arthur Bremer was convicted and sentenced in Upper Marlboro, Maryland, to 63 years in prison for his attempt on the life of Alabama Gov. George C. Wallace (the sentence was later reduced to 53 years; Bremer was released from prison in 2007).
In 1993, a federal judge sentenced Los Angeles police officers Stacey Koon and Laurence Powell to 2 1/2 years in prison for violating Rodney King’s civil rights.
In 2009, North Korean leader Kim Jong Il pardoned American journalists Laura Ling and Euna Lee for entering the country illegally and ordered their release during a surprise visit by former U.S. President Bill Clinton.
In 2019, a masked gunman fired on revelers enjoying summer nightlife in a popular entertainment district of Dayton, Ohio, leaving nine people dead and 27 wounded; police said officers shot and killed the shooter within 30 seconds of the start of his rampage.

Of course, now we expect a daily Raz enhancement to that list.
-
Ten years ago: A Texas jury convicted polygamist sect leader Warren Jeffs of child sexual assault in a case stemming from two young followers he’d taken as brides in what his church called “spiritual marriages.” (Jeffs was sentenced to life in prison.)
Five years ago: Speaking to reporters at the Pentagon, President Barack Obama vigorously denied that a $400 million cash payment to Iran was ransom to secure the release of four Americans jailed in Tehran. During a practice session on the eve of the Rio Olympics, South Korean gymnast Lee Eun-ju took a smiling selfie with North Korean gymnast Hong Un Jong in a warmly received scene captured by journalists.
One year ago: Nearly 3,000 tons of ammonium nitrate that had been improperly stored for years in the port of Beirut, Lebanon, exploded, killing more than 200 people, injuring more than 6,000 and devastating nearby neighborhoods; it was one of the largest non-nuclear explosions ever recorded. After months of criticizing the practice, President Donald Trump urged voters in the critical swing state of Florida to vote by mail, even as the Trump campaign and Republican officials sued to block a Nevada plan to automatically send voters mail ballots. Virgin Atlantic, the airline founded by British businessman Richard Branson, filed for protection in U.S. bankruptcy court.

I'll take this one too, since it sounds decent, and I'm a sucker for all things peanut butter. The other one named after the "beloved" OSU mascot, you can keep. I get so tired of hearing about OSU around here.

I like Irish coffee, and I make it correctly. But I've never seen anyone order it in a bar or restaurant out here. And try to find a bar anywhere that makes it right. You order Irish coffee in a bar, you get coffee with Bailey's and a dollop of whipped cream from a can.
If there's a most popular cocktail in Washington, it's the Moscow Mule. I don't like them because I don't like drinking cocktails out of a metal cup, but jayzus, they get ordered. They should call it the Millennial's Martini.
The Tequila Sunrise is a California thing. In Arizona, the most popular cocktail is a Margarita.

I wonder why the Luminosa robustos are so much more expensive than the toros or Churchills? Must be very popular, since it's normally the other way around.

I just kind of glanced over the list, but I don't think Margarita's we even on it. Hard to believe for sure.
Like Moscow Mule's fine, and it's currently my son's drink of choice. I prefer to go with the original however, Dark and Stormy with Goslings Black Seal Rum instead of vodka.

Matter of fact, I may just make one or two up after lunch, skipping the copper cup.

While I usually keep it simple with scotch or bourbon neat or with a cube, ordering a cocktail out I would go with a Manhattan.
